Two different worlds collide and find union within each other..but at what cost? (Intersex femme 18+) Toni Phillips was hard-headed with a tough exterior. She needed it in order to protect herself from how evil the world could be. After being kicked out at sixteen for her sexuality, she built herself back up for twelve years but not without struggle.

She keeps her head down, her voice quiet-until one night she forgets to mute her shine.
When she sings while closing up, a stranger lingers in the shadows, listening like her voice is oxygen. She doesn't know he's been watching her long before that night. 
She doesn't know he's the producer whose name used to sit on her dream board. 
She doesn't know he's the reason opportunity suddenly knocks again. Because he's not a stranger.
He's her next chance at fame-
and the stalker who's been rewriting her destiny from the dark. 🥇in #books.

this one is for the lovers.

More than a boss, closer to a lover.

Onika was the perfect daughter-loyal, selfless, always giving. But in giving everything, she lost herself. Then came Beyoncé. She offered what Onika never had: peace, love, stability. Now Onika must choose-her own happiness or everyone else's expectations.

Their first meeting feels ordinary, but what grows between them threatens to upend every truth they thought they knew.
