Reentry Case 007: Male, 37, assault with intent to kill, parole conditions strict. Not to be left alone with female staff.

Milan Parker has one golden rule for running her top-tier Atlanta branding agency: never get emotionally attached to a project. But when a nonprofit hires her to preserve the legacy of the historic, Black-owned Ranch, she faces a challenge unlike any other. She's tasked with spending three months on the land to rebrand the business and shoot a documentary on Black cowboy history. She expects endless hours behind a camera; she doesn't expect Jelani East. Jelani is a fourth-generation cowboy fiercely protective of his family's century-old land and traditions. Skeptical of a city media consultant trying to "commercialize" his heritage, he lays down one strict condition: before Milan can film a single frame, she has to live the life first. No cameras. No interviews. Just raw ranch work. Suddenly, Milan is trading her city routine for sunrise stalls, mending fences, and community cookouts. As she earns the ranch's trust-and finds herself falling for the stubborn cowboy holding the reins-Milan realizes that some legacies aren't just meant to be documented. They're meant to be lived.

Moving to Gulfward Heights was the least of Spirits concern, though dark twists and turns always seem to follow behind her. Then she meets the Richardson brothers, the worst mistake she's ever been involved in. But what makes it worse is they've both fallen for her but under what circumstances.

Xander King is the ultimate "holy" deception. As the son of the city's most famous Bishop, he's royalty in a three-piece suit. On Sunday mornings, he's the perfect heir to the pulpit. But when the sun goes down, the suit comes off, and the King of the streets comes out to play. Xander doesn't just run the city's underground-he owns it. He's got the money, the power, and a line of women who know better than to ask for his heart. Then there's Charity. She's the girl who just traded her old life for a Bible and a fresh start. She's trying to be "good," and when she looks at Xander, she sees a man who's just as lost as she used to be. She thinks she can save him. She thinks his cold stares are just a shield for a broken soul. But Xander isn't looking to be saved. He's fighting a war on every front: his father's impossible expectations, a past that won't stay buried, and the dangerous pull he feels toward a girl who's too pure for his world. When a body drops and a murder investigation hits too close to the church, the polished mask starts to slip. Charity is about to find out that the man she's falling for isn't a misunderstood saint-he's the devil in the front row. In this city, the only thing more dangerous than a sinner is someone Unholy.

He said out of no where and I snapped my head around almost giving myself whiplash. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ This story contains explicit content 🔞 This is 𝗕𝗢𝗢𝗞 𝟮 Book 1 (RETRAINED) is on my profile but DOESN'T need to be read in order to understand this book.

"I got one big ass album for you, It got over 900 pictures of you." He confessed making her jaw drop. "Do you even be picking out the best pictures and delete the rest of the ugly ones??" She looked at him in shock. "Fuck no, I keep every picture of you." He said while opening the house door and let her walk in first. "You're so crazy inlove, it's okay though me too." She smiled softly at him. "I thought you only liked me a lil bit." He locked the doors and followed her to the bedroom. "I changed my mind. I can do that." She flipped her hair over her shoulder and walked in the bedroom. "Type shit." He laughed and shook his head at her. Messiah was so deeply in love with Juani, nobody could tell him anything about her. He loved her with all his heart and felt like she was the reason he had smiled so much in what felt like forever.
