𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇- He told her one thing "you ain't see shit if you wanna keep that pretty face connected to your body." She was never supposed to cross paths with Giomani "Gio" Blackwood, suit-wearing, gun-toting underboss of New York's most feared family. But one wrong night put her in his world, and Gio don't believe in coincidences. Now she's tied to the man the streets call a monster. And the craziest part? The more she learns about him, the harder it gets to hate him. Cold. Calculated. Fine as hell. Gio runs everything - and when his father steps down, he's coming for the throne. But love and loyalty don't mix in the mafia. And in Gio's world, you either with him... or you against him. Ain't no in-between.

Alyssa Monroe built her life around giving - warm coats, hot meals, and second chances. Her non-profit, The Monroe Foundation, is the city's holiday heartbeat. To raise more funds, she announces a playful challenge at her annual gala: 𝙒𝙝𝙤𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙙𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙢𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙙 𝘿𝙚𝙘𝙚𝙢𝙗𝙚𝙧 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝘾𝙝𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙢𝙖𝙨 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙢𝙚, 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙛𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙨 𝙞𝙣 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙. She never expected Christopher Green to win. He's the city's coldest businessman, feared in the streets, and the last person she wants tied to her name. But when he drops six figures and shows up ready to play the part, Alyssa realizes there's more to him than rumors. He's chaos where she craves calm, temptation where she promised control-and somehow, the one person who makes her heart feel like home again. Because underneath the lights, the charity, and the snow, she learns one thing for sure 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞 𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐚𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜.

Love wasn't supposed to be this dangerous. Taylor has always lived by one rule-stay out the way and survive quietly. But everything changes the day she crosses paths with Davion, a street-raised, battle-scarred man with a reputation that follows him like a shadow. He's unpredictable, magnetic and carrying secrets heavy enough to break anyone who gets too close....

Zharai Monét Kevelle and Kaelvion Rhys Montel have been in each other's space for years-she's the loud, funny girl who always has a comeback, and he's the quiet, too-cool type that everybody assumes doesn't laugh. They aren't official. They're not even "talking"... but they can't stay out of each other's way. Every time they link, Zha-Zha teases him-about his waves, his serious face, his music, his "grandpa glasses." What starts as playful arguments slowly turns into them catching real feelings. But Kael moves low-key and doesn't give his heart easily, while Zha-Zha is scared of loving someone who might break her like her past dudes. The question is... will they both stop playing before it's too late?
