Everything took a turn but will it get back to the beginning

After the heartbreaking loss of Zac Taylor, Fatima is determined to keep the promise they made to each other-to keep their family together. As daughters Zaria, Zuri, and Zalayah face love, betrayal, marriage, motherhood, and unimaginable loss, they discover that the strength of the Taylor family isn't found in perfection, but in faith, forgiveness, and unwavering loyalty. Through every storm, the Taylor women prove that family is forever, love never dies, and true ride-or-die bonds can withstand anything.

Zac and Fatima Taylor have loved each other since high school. When they become teenage parents to twins, they're forced to grow up fast after both families turn their backs on them. Determined to provide, Zac enters the drug trade, giving Fatima the chance to chase her dream of becoming an attorney while building a better life for their growing family. Just as they leave the streets behind, Zac's past catches up with him. A federal RICO case sends him to prison, leaving Fatima to raise their children, run the family business, and welcome their youngest daughter alone. After five years, Zac returns home to rebuild the life he nearly lost. Together, they must overcome the consequences of the past and discover that their greatest success was never the money-it was the family and love they refused to let go.

*Sequel to Becoming Us: Family Two years into marriage, Zac and Fatima Taylor are building the life they always wanted-a loving home, a beautiful daughter, and successful careers. But as adulthood brings new challenges, old questions, outside temptations, and family pressures, they discover that love alone isn't enough. Together, they must choose trust, forgiveness, and each other every day to protect the family they've worked so hard to build. Becoming Us: Family is a heartfelt story about marriage, resilience, and the power of never giving up on the ones you love.

Fatima's first day at a new high school introduces her to Zac, a kind-hearted young man still grieving the loss of his mother. What starts as teenage romance quickly becomes something much bigger when an unexpected pregnancy changes the course of their lives. As they navigate love, parenthood, heartbreak, and the challenges of growing up, Zac and Fatima discover that building a future together takes more than love-it takes faith, resilience, sacrifice, and the courage to keep choosing each other. *Becoming Us* is a heartfelt coming-of-age love story about first love, unexpected turns and two young people growing into the family they never imagined.

After finally making their relationship official, Crystal and Devale are ready to see where love takes them. Dating should be easy... right? Not when you're balancing busy careers, raising an energetic toddler who has already claimed Devale as her favorite person, learning each other's habits, meeting families, facing unexpected challenges, and discovering what it truly means to build a life together. From sweet first dates and cozy nights in to unforgettable milestones, laughter, tears, and dreams of forever, Crystal and Devale will learn that love isn't just about finding the right person. It's about choosing them every single day. And with little Lailah right in the middle of it all, every chapter promises a little more love, a little more chaos... and a lot more family.
