Aniya thought marriage meant partnership, love, and maybe the occasional argument about Netflix passwords. What she didn't plan for was Farrah - Spencer's charming, passive-aggressive "work wife" who somehow made "emotional cheating" look like part of the job description. At first, it was small stuff: snarky comments about Aniya's yoga career, a suspicious number of office selfies, and a mysteriously missing anniversary mug. But when Farrah starts hashtagging Spencer as her "WorkHubby" and scheduling dinners on their actual anniversary, Aniya realizes she's not imagining it-this woman is trying to steal her man, one team meeting at a time. Now Aniya has two options: 1. Let Farrah run the show while Spencer plays the clueless nice guy. 2. Or remind everyone - including her husband - exactly who's married to him. Told with sharp humor, brutal honesty, and enough chaos to fill an HR report, Delete Her Number, Spencer is a modern love story about marriage in the social media era - where loyalty is tested, egos are fragile, and no one is safe from a "work bestie" with boundary issues.

Amira Jackson has lived her entire thirty-five years with the weight of stories-her grandmother's memories, her parents' mistakes, and the tragedy that took Ray's father when their son was only ten. Lynwood raised her, loss shaped her, and motherhood softened what the world tried to harden. Now, Amira spends her days guiding teens at the Boys & Girls Club, trying to teach them the same thing she's still learning herself: how to hold pain without letting it define you. When Kendrick Lamar returns to the community to speak with the youth he quietly supports, Amira expects chaos, crowds, and one stressed-out afternoon. What she doesn't expect is the way the moment he walks into the room shifts something in her-something she buried under years of survival, routine, and responsibility. Kendrick carries his own ghosts. Fame, past mistakes, childhood memories that still echo, the pressure of being the voice for a world that never stops listening. He recognizes the heaviness in Amira because he's been trying to outrun his own. As their worlds intersect-through Ray's admiration, community tensions, resurfaced trauma, and the shared ache of things left unsaid-Amira and Kendrick are pulled into a connection neither of them were looking for but both of them feel.

on the official wattpad page's reading list for black stories📖📚 She escaped her past in stilettos. He brought her back in boots. Gianna Sinclair built a glamorous life in Los Angeles-designer clothes, celebrity clients, and a reputation that sparkled as bright as the Hollywood sign. But beneath the polish lies a past she buried long ago in Prairie View, Texas-a sleepy town filled with dusty roads, painful memories, and a little sister she left behind. When her grandmother passes, Gianna is forced to return home for the first time in years. There, Gini-hurt, angry, and grieving-greets her with sharp words and deeper wounds. One explosive argument later, Gianna storms off, intent on leaving Prairie View for good. But fate as other plans. Only one wrong turn lands herself stranded on the backroads of open fields. Where she meets Weston Reid. Rugged. Quiet. Cowboy to the bone. Weston isn't looking for trouble, but trouble sure looks good in designer heels and ruined curls. He saves her. She challenges him. And as Gianna's glamorous world crashes into his rugged one, sparks fly hotter than the Southern sun. But love in Prairie View isn't simple. There are secrets buried deeper than the Texas clay. And Gianna will have to decide if she's willing to trade fame and fashion... for a second chance, a hometown healing-and the kind of love that doesn't give a damn about headlines.
