He prayed for her in the dark. She begged to God for him to let her go. Ky'leigh Ace thought loving a man like Julian "Toro" Cortez was just part of growing up in the Southside. But when he got locked up, she found out the truth: being in love with a gang member was one thing-raising his daughter alone was another. Six years later, he's back. Fresh out. Full of pain, pride, and poison. But Ky has changed. She's colder now. Stronger. Smarter. And she's been keeping Jurnee away from the streets. But Julian doesn't play when it comes to his daughter. Or Ky. In the world they come from, love ain't sweet-it's war. And every night, somebody's out there whispering a Lover's Prayer just to survive it.

The Princetons and the Lockes. It's an enmity of decades. And so the tradition continues when it comes to Venus and Caden. A prince and a leader's daughter. Two hearts. Two minds. Two bodies. Attraction. Hate. Love. But above all, lust. Unfortunately, feeling anything but hate for the other, is a sin. And Venus and Caden are now sinners. They're taught to hate each other. To take every opportunity to torment the other and to steal the other's moment. But what happens when the two hearts being told to do so start to disobey? After years of so-called hatred, the attraction is now seeping through and their acts are unraveling rapidly. Can Venus and Caden keep everything between them hidden and under wraps? Or will a forbidden romance cause havoc? . . . . . ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

Book 2 of Blessings.

Ranking 3 - Forced relationship 3 - Skeptic 6 - Age Gap 7 - Stalked Nights are not safe when the devils are out for hunting for their prey. One should know that they are not supposed to mess with the devils. They can be perilous. One is not supposed to steal from them, they don't forgive thieves. They don't allow you to mess with their brains, neither do they allow you to steal their heart. You did both, Desirée. And now its payback time. FEMALE PROTAGONIST Desirée, a 20-year-old orphan. Loving and caring by nature, which she missed in her tender age. A perfect combination of beauty with a golden heart. But her dreadful past leaves her scared and broken, turning her into a skeptical person. MALE PROTAGONISTS Demon & Romano, 29 years old called "The Devils in Disguise". Both filthy rich, elegant and audacious. Business Partners, more like sidekicks. Everything is common between them. The icing on the cake, both enamored by the same girl. Will they be able to impress her or will they take her anyway.

What are we without flesh and blood? Are we nothing but a beating heart in a ribcage, a marching soul inevitably leading to our demise? Or are we here as a test of loyalty to our God, a God we do not know but must trust? And without this trust, we will be punished indefinitely for questioning his divinity. And what is a sheep without his shepherd? Without God, are we nothing but sheep led astray? How will we be guided to the light without a shepherd on earth? Should we trust our shepherd to tell us the truth? Or will we be covered in the blood of the lamb? A shepherd with blood on his hands could infect his flock with poison. And with this poison, he has control. And to Luke, this poison is all he knows. His seventeen years of life have been devoted to nothing else but God. He wakes up, goes to school or church, and sleeps; rinse and repeat. There is no place or time for anything else in his life, such as television, going out with friends, or discovering new hobbies. His father, Pastor Ivy, ensures this. His life purpose will be to serve the Lord and nothing else. A purpose that Luke believes is the right way. What else would there be to life? He hadn't questioned this until he met Gabriel, a man who was the complete opposite of him. A man who was strong in his sense of self. A man who didn't bow to anyone or anything and stood firm in his beliefs in The Church of Satan. A man who Luke feared. But also a man who felt like home to him.
