𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇- Sage Monroe finally opened Sweet Tooth, the bakery she and her late grandmother always dreamed of-only to find herself next door to loud bass, loud weed, and an even louder man who owns the dispensary beside her. Cash Vaughn owns the whole strip, but Sage doesn't care about his money, power, or reputation. All she knows is he's bad for business... and somehow impossible to ignore. Cash doesn't trust anybody outside his bloodline, but Sage gets under his skin in ways nobody ever has. What starts as tension turns into something neither of them saw coming-until betrayal, kidnapping, and a deadly street war threatens to tear it all apart. And when the smoke clears, Cash has to decide if love is worth bleeding for... and Sage has to decide if she can survive loving a man built for war.

Aujani Mitchell has never believed motherhood should depend on whether a man chooses to marry her. At twenty-seven, she has built a life she is proud of-a successful career as a pediatric nurse, financial stability, a close family, and enough love to give the child she has always wanted. After months of researching sperm banks and anonymous donors, Aujani realizes she cannot bring herself to choose a stranger. She wants to know her child's medical history, their family, and the kind of man responsible for half of who they will become. There is only one person she trusts that deeply. Her best friend, Cartier Moore. Cartier has been beside Aujani since fifth grade. They have grown up together, shared clothes, secrets, arguments, firsts, heartbreaks, and every version of themselves in between. He is also a devoted father, a successful businessman, and the one man Aujani knows would never abandon his child. But when she asks Cartier to help her have a baby, he makes one thing clear-he is not interested in being a donor. If they create a child together, he will be the daddy. Five months later, an appointment is booked, their plan is in motion, and the friendship that has survived almost everything begins changing in ways neither of them expected. Morning sickness brings Cartier closer. Late-night cravings become routine. Baby names, tiny clothes, doctor appointments, and quiet moments start feeling far more intimate than friendship should. Cartier falls first. Aujani does not realize she is falling until the man she has known nearly her entire life starts looking at her differently-and she begins looking back.

𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐁𝐲 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝟏𝟗𝟗𝟒 𝐒𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐨𝐦 "𝐒𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫" 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐧 𝐀𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐓𝐨 𝐈𝐭 : All their lives, people have sworn they've seen them both somewhere before. Two Girls. Different neighborhoods. Different schools. Different lives. But nearly the same face. At first it feels like a simple coincidence. Then it starts happening too often to ignore. When the two girls finally come face to face, the resemblance is impossible to deny. What begins as confusion quickly turns into anger and suspicion as buried secrets begin to surface. Years ago, their mother gave birth to semi-identical twin girls, she was told one of them died during delivery. But the truth is far darker. One baby didn't die. She was kidnapped at birth. As the girls dig deeper into the past, they uncover a web of lies, stolen identities, and a truth that should have never stayed buried. Learning they are twins is only the beginning. Trust doesn't come easy between two strangers forced into sisterhood, and the bond they're trying to build is tested by resentment, jealousy, and the painful realization of everything that was stolen from them. But blood has a way of pulling people back together and when the truth finally comes out, the sisters will have to decide whether the life they lost is worth fighting for... or if the family they found in each other is enough.
