On the flip of a coin, people die around Sin. Escaped from a lunatic asylum and haunted by his dead sister, he must find out why, and discover who is trying to use his power to destroy everything and everyone. ***** Dead, dead, dead. Say it enough times and it becomes just another word. What would you do? Could you kill a killer? Does the death of one appease the deaths of a hundred? What about that hundred against a thousand? What if you had no choice? Meet Sin. No, not that sort of sin, but Sin, crazy as a loon (you ask Sister Moon), and proud of it. Sin locks himself away in an asylum and, every so often, badboy he's believed to be, gets violent. That's only so they'll give him those nice drugs, though. The ones that help him forget. It's a pity they don't work. Sin, you see, has a serious problem. Well, it's not so much his problem, as ours - yours, mine and everyone else's. People die around Sin.

Nia James is twenty-one and still figuring life out. No parties, no first kiss, no big moments - just quiet days at her HBCU, trying not to feel behind. Then she keeps crossing paths with Malik, a star basketball player who seems to have it all together. He's confident, experienced... and for some reason, keeps noticing her. In a world that moves fast, Nia's learning to take her time - with life, with love, and with herself.

"You trust me?" I look up at him, staring into his light brown eyes that stared directly at me. It felt like he was staring into my soul trying to read me. I could barely answer his question because I was busy looking at him. Once I realized I was staring like crazy, I quickly look down. "I do." ----------------------------- She's the girl you never saw coming, the unexpected one who calms you, centers you, and still she turns out to be the surprise love of your love. She gets you, really gets you like no one ever has. She is your best friend, lover, and soulmate all wrapped in the prettiest package. She is unforgettable, she is like no one, which is why you are addicted to her mind, her soul, her body, and her presence. You can't get her out of your system. You taste her and she runs through you hot like blood and fire. She never leaves you no matter what, because she too, knows how rare the connection is. You have never had anyone stick by you like that before. She is the safest place you ever know. You are soft for her no matter how hard life gets, she is there and your feelings never change. She loves you fiercely and you feel her love deep in your bones and in your soul. She is the one who makes you feel whole in a way you never have before and that terrifies you.

At 17, she's her own boss-running a chair, raising her little brother, and surviving in a house where love don't live-just her mama and whatever man's around that week. Her hands stay blessed, but her heart stays guarded. Until one viral post shifts her hustle into overdrive, and D'zari-smooth talk, soft eyes-starts slipping through her cracks. Now A'kyli's caught between chasing freedom and facing feelings she never planned for. But the streets don't pause for nobody. Secrets get loud. Trauma runs deep. And home? Ain't always safe. How much can a girl carry before it's too much?

While he was gone, she found herself. Essence didn't believe in soft things. Love had always been loud, painful, and temporary. So when Zion - calm, patient, and everything she wasn't used to - showed up in uniform with a quiet kind of peace, she pushed him away. Then he left for deployment. Now, surrounded by base gossip, silence, and everything she never said out loud, Essence is forced to face the one thing that scares her more than falling in love: being loved right. And Zion? He's not sure who he'll be when he comes home - but he knows exactly who he's coming back for. A slow-burn military love story about distance, healing, and the kind of love that waits - even when everything says to let go.

"When the world's watching, protecting two hearts gets real." They survived the lies. They chose each other. But love don't come easy-especially when the world's watching. Allure thought peace would come easy once she left her past behind-but nothing about her life is calm now. She's pregnant, popping on magazine covers, and the world suddenly wants more of her than ever. Behind the glitz, though, she's scared. Of change. Of motherhood. Of whether love can really hold steady when everything else is moving fast. Romelo's no longer just her bodyguard-he's about to be a father and the face of a growing security empire. But while he's leveling up, his past is still out there lurking, waiting to pull him back down. And with the spotlight getting hotter on both of them, the pressure to protect what they're building has never been heavier. As their names rise higher and the stakes grow deeper, Allure and Romelo will have to fight for their love-through the whispers, the expectations, and the secrets that refuse to stay buried. Because fame doesn't protect your heart. But maybe love can.

✨ She built a brand. He built a wall. Now they're both learning how to love past the pain. ✨ Allure King is more than a face-she's a force. A world-renowned model and influencer with a multi-million dollar empire built on beauty, resilience, and control. But behind the flawless photos and fierce reputation lies a woman quietly unraveling. After years of loyalty, love, and sacrifice, she finds herself publicly betrayed by the man she gave everything to-NBA star Malik James. Enter Romelo Creed. Fresh out of prison and trying to outrun the shadows of his past, Romelo takes a job protecting Allure... only to find himself drawn to the fire in her spirit, and the sadness in her silence. He's rough around the edges, deadly when necessary, but soft when it matters most. As her bodyguard, he was supposed to protect her from the world. He never expected she'd be the one to save him. What starts as tension turns into trust. What feels like lust begins to blur into something deeper. But Malik isn't finished-his stunts grow bolder, and the past refuses to stay buried. As the media stirs the drama and secrets begin to surface, Allure and Romelo are forced to confront the one thing they've both been avoiding: How do you protect a heart that's never felt safe? Love was never in the plan. But fate doesn't care about plans.

"I told you about looking down when you being talked to mama." Kaiser spoke more softly than before. In the small time he been around Serenity, he noticed how shy she was. She was so avoidant but alluring. He was interested in her. Seeing how well she was with the kids was just a plus. "Why?" She sighed in frustration before signing. She knew if she started talking she would make a fool of herself. "Why what?" He signed back. "Why do you care? You don't know me." "Not everyone has it out for you. I just wanna know you," Kaiser frowned. He didn't understand why she was so isolated but he wanted to know. She was worth knowing.

Deja A'riyah Brown is a woman who knows exactly who she is. In her late 30s, she's confident, loving, and comfortable in her own skin. A beautiful plus-size woman with a soft heart and a strong mind, she's spent years learning her worth. She doesn't chase attention, she doesn't entertain childish games, and she definitely isn't interested in raising a grown man. Her life is peaceful, steady, and built on self-respect. So the last thing she expects is to cross paths with someone like him. At only 22 years old, Elifér Josué Etienne, better known in the streets as "Choppo," is everything she stays away from. A Haitian street boy with money in his pockets, confidence in his walk, and trouble following close behind him. The streets know his name, women know his charm, and commitment is something he's never taken seriously. Funny, bold, and dangerously smooth, he's used to getting whatever-and whoever-he wants. But Deja isn't impressed. She's older, wiser, and far too grounded to be caught up in the lifestyle of a young man who lives fast and loves even faster. To her, Choppo is just another boy who hasn't figured life out yet. But something about Deja A'riyah Brown is different. For the first time, his jokes don't shake her. His money doesn't move her. And his charm? It barely scratches the surface. What started as two people from completely different worlds colliding slowly turns into something neither of them expected. Because sometimes the one person you swear you'd never fall for... becomes the one person who changes everything. And this time, the streets might not be strong enough to pull Choppo away.

🛩️ "You keep looking at me like that, Raina." "Like what?" she whispered, her pulse hammering. Tariq's dark eyes flickered over her face, then lower-taking her in, slow, deliberate. "Like you're trying to remember me before I'm gone." ====================== A plane crash. A deserted island. A love that was never meant to survive. Released: 03/11/2025
