Ardent Currents - Book 1 An artist who's trauma has driven an important part of his past from his mind meets a loan shark scion who remembers every stolen glance. If you like dark mafia daddies, snarky AIs, heated eye contact, ridiculous levels of "down so bad" longing, spicy tension, and scenes that will leave you checking to make sure no one's reading over your shoulder or in the reflection of your glasses... this one's for you! Jamar Devereaux All I ever wanted was my mother's company, not the dream he stole, not even the time before the accident that took my memories. But now, Mother's crossed the Union's most notorious loan sharks... and what they want as payment might be the end of my life as I know it. Alaric Mako I've hunted him for so long, and at last, I'll finally make him mine. Summary: When his mother defaults on a deadly loan with powerful loan sharks, Jamar Devereaux is forced into an arranged engagement with the son of the most notorious loan shark in the Union, even though he's sure he's not into men. Jamar's fiancé? Alaric Mako: the devastatingly handsome, cold and calculating heir who's spent years watching Jamar from afar. Jamar can't remember their brief past before his accident, but Alaric Mako has never forgotten. To save his mother and himself, Jamar agrees to the proposal. But as he fights to ignore the magnetic pull toward Alaric, he discovers feelings his accident suppressed. Thrilled to have found him again, Alaric Mako woos Jamar the only way a loan shark can-with dogged obsession. In this far off, technology-driven future of corporate dynasties, news-fluencers, and ruthless debt law, will Jamar and Alaric cut through the tension to a happily ever after despite being bound by debt, or will the way they started be too powerful a force to overcome, and bring their end again? Can Jamar and Alaric overcome the suffocating weight of debt and an arranged engagement to find something stronger: chosen love? Read to find out!

𝐄𝐱𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐩𝐭: "Chapter 1: Zion" By the time the alarm rang, it was already too late. I just didn't know it yet. "Zion?" Nia's frantic call rouses me from my dream of my mother, Kecia Maelstrom, our Luna emeritus. The alarm blares again and that's all it takes to have me vaulting from the bed, Nia's hand in mine. "Get to the bunker." "No! We discussed this," Nia shouts. "I'm your Luna. I fight by your side, Zi. Together." We have no time to argue, I grit my teeth as Nia arms up with her crossbow and blade, strapping the bow on her back and securing her sword at her hip. "You stay on my ass," I whisper urgently as another peal cuts through the night followed by a crash. "You hear me, Nia? On my ass." "I'm not leaving you for anything," Nia replies, amber eyes meeting my own as I arm up with my own blades and storm out of the door of our little home into chaos. My eyes widen. There's fire everywhere. Our peaceful village has been transformed into a hellscape. My heart launches into my chest as Nia stares around at my side, stunned by the carnage. It looks like a bomb has gone off. One very well may have...
