Kahlani never meant to fall for Mateo, the Hispanic football star who only dates within his race. She was never supposed to matter. Just the best friend in the background. The secret. The girl he reaches for in the dark and ignores in public. One night changes everything. She gives him her first time. He gives her lies, broken promises, and just enough attention to keep her coming back. Every. Single. Time. Even after he hurts her, even after he chooses someone else, she always returns. Because loving Mateo is an addiction disguised as romance and she's hooked. Ever wondered what it's like to be the other woman? To crave someone who will never truly be yours? To stay, knowing you're not the priority, but hoping he'll eventually change? This isn't a love story. It's obsession, manipulation, and destruction wrapped up in desire. Secrets this ugly never stay buried, and when they surface, someone's heart won't survive. 🚨Fair warning: this is not your typical cute, lovey-dovey romance. This story is raw, messy, toxic and emotionally intense. You'll laugh, cry, get angry, feel hope, and feel heartbreak. So please read at your own discretion. With that being said... let's dive in. I hope you enjoy every twisted moment.🚨

Normani is use to being in control-of her body, her home, and especially her heart. A stunning, single mother and seasoned flight attendant, she knows better than to entertain distractions. But when her son comes home from college for the summer and brings his best friend with him, all bets are off. Zane is tall, tatted, and built like temptation in human form-confident, cocky, and way too grown for his own good. He's got bedroom eyes, a mouth full of slick charm, and zero shame in how hard he flirts with her. She knows he's trouble. She knows he's off-limits. But every night, he's just down the hall... Because temptation has never looked this good. And it might just be the best worst decision she's ever made.

Amira Hart was never meant to be part of the story. Not the public one, anyway. But behind every polished legacy is the girl no one talks about-the one who was loved in secret, then left in silence. For two years, Amira and Brooks Whitmore IV lived in that silence. He was the President's son, raised for cameras and campaign trails. She was the woman he chose when no one was watching. Their worlds were never meant to meet. The cards were stacked long before they kissed in the dark. Now, two years later, a wedding invitation arrives. His name is on it. So is hers. Told in fragments and flashbacks, His Secret is a quiet storm of a love story-about memory, erasure, and the women history tries to forget.

BLACK WOMEN MC DISCLAIMER: This book contains explicit content and mature themes intended for readers aged 18 and over. It is not a traditional romance, but rather a deeply complex and dark exploration of a toxic relationship. The characters' dynamics involve intense emotional manipulation, power struggles, and actions that may be triggering to some readers. Please be advised that this story delves into themes that are explicit, emotionally charged, and may not be suitable for all audiences. Proceed with caution. "Tell me again how you don't want me," he whispers, dragging his lips down her neck. "Say it under oath, and I might even believe you." Jasmine Taylor doesn't lose. Not in the courtroom, not in life. At just twenty-six, she's built an ironclad reputation: fierce, brilliant, and unshakably professional. But when she's assigned the biggest case of her career-defending Dimitri Alekseev, a dangerously alluring Russian immigrant accused of murder-her world begins to crack. Dimitri isn't just a suspect. He's a problem. Tall, tattooed, and terrifyingly unreadable, with ties to a powerful family the law doesn't dare touch. The evidence against him is overwhelming. The press wants him buried. And deep down, Jasmine suspects the whispers are true. But the more time she spends with him, the harder it becomes to separate fact from instinct. Because beneath his cold exterior is something intoxicating. Calculated charm. Raw heat. And secrets whispered in the dark. As the trial barrels forward, Jasmine finds herself pulled into his world-one filled with shadows, blood ties, and undeniable temptation. The closer she gets to the truth, the more she risks not just her career, but her safety... and her soul. What happens when the woman who always plays by the rules falls for the man who was born to break them?
