Janeisha "Neisha" Bambi has always survived by keeping a low profile. She don't get caught up in the kind of business that comes with bodies, secrets, and street names that echo. But all it takes is one night-one favor for her best friend-to slide her straight into the orbit of Seven "Saint" Carter. Saint is discipline wrapped in menace. A man the streets don't just respect,they fear. The type Neisha promised herself she'd never look at twice. He doesn't chase, beg, or explain. Yet somehow, he does all of this for her. And when that calm, unreadable gaze settles on Neisha, her careful world starts to crack. Now Saint's patience is running out, Neisha's defenses are falling apart and the pull between them is starting to feel less like a choice and more like fate. He's trying to shield her from the life he lives. She's trying to decide if loving him is salvation or self-destruction.

Texas born twins Cilia and Iris Hunter were brought to Brooklyn, New York and given up for adoption at the age of one. But their foster mother Ms. Pat never cared about them and only adopted the twins for a check from the government, leaving Cilia, the more feisty and braver twin to raise her sister, Iris. At ten the girls meet a boy named Allele Coleman, just as snappish and street savvy as Cilia. The girls soon learn that Allele too also goes through trouble in his own home. So the three quickly decide to run away together where they live on the streets for years with mostly Cilia and Allele protecting Iris, until an incident causes Cilia to get incarcerated, separating her from the only family she ever knew. When she comes out several years later and finds Iris and Allele, it's no surprise that she finds out the weaker of the group, Iris is sick. She's blind. Iris is told the only way her vision can be restored is through surgery. With a newfound attitude from prison, Cilia will stop at nothing to help her sister. Cilia and Allele go on a mission that requires $150,000 dollars in order to restore...her eyes. Cover by: @dragology

Persephone Vivienne Devereaux was the perfect wife. She gave her husband everything-her time, her love, her entire life. She built her world around him, making sure his ran smoothly even when hers was falling apart. So why was it never enough? Why was his attention always somewhere else... with other women? Now she's left questioning her marriage, her worth, and the life she sacrificed to maintain. Kassian "Hollow" Sinclair is a name that stays on repeat-on playlists, in headlines, and on the lips of women who swear they're different. At just 25, he's already living a life most can't touch-money long, fame loud, and an ego to match. He's smooth, calculated, and dangerously charming... the type to pull you in without ever giving you enough to feel secure. Music is his escape, but control is his addiction. And women? They don't just want him... they lose themselves trying to keep him. Until her. Persephone is cold, boujee, and completely unimpressed. She doesn't care about his fame, his money, or his name-and for the first time in his life... Kassian isn't in control. What starts as curiosity turns into obsession. Lust turns reckless, boundaries disappear, and lines that should never be crossed get blurred. Because behind her perfect image is a woman starving for something real... and behind his fame is a man who only knows how to take. Secrets build. Feelings get involved. And now it's no longer just temptation-it's betrayal. When it all falls apart... who gets hurt first? And was it ever love... or just a beautiful lie? WARNING: Mature content, strong language, infidelity, toxic relationships, and explicit scenes. Read at your own risk.

Nari is the backbone of her block. A hairstylist with a "don't talk to me" attitude, she carries the weight of her world on her shoulders without asking for a hand out or a shoulder to cry on. Between braiding heads until her fingers bleed and raising her little sister, Layla, Nari doesn't have time for feelings-only for the math of survival. She's the provider, the protector, and the one everyone runs to when the lights go out. When her best friend Vee discovers her boyfriend, Marcus, sneaking a woman into her apartment, the two "slide" to handle the disrespect. But the confrontation takes a deadly turn. Against Nari's warnings, a heart-broken Vee does the unmistakable, not realizing the aftermath will affect J.R., a name that carries a death sentence in the streets. Caught in the crosshairs of a street war they didn't start, Nari's life of calculated hustle is traded for a game of survival. Dragged into the shadows of the streets, she comes face-to-face with a man whose silence is louder than any gunshot. He's cold, calculated, and holds Nari's life in the palm of his hand. Now, Nari is juggling more than just bills and braids. She's navigating a world of high-stakes debts and a dangerous attraction to a man who represents everything she should be running from. But in a world built on power and pride, love is a liability. When the wall finally crumbles and the "Provider" has nothing left to give, the roles reverse. _________________________________
