Ja and Dess had been inseparable from the moment they met in college. What started as a friendship quickly ignited into a love neither of them saw coming. They were young-perhaps too young to understand the weight of what they truly had. Then Ja's betrayals shattered everything. For Dess, walking away was the only way to save herself. For Ja, losing her sent him spiraling into a world of regret, excess, and self-destruction. Now, five years later, fate has brought them back to the same crossroads, caught between what was and what still might be. When their paths cross once more, old wounds resurface, and the weight of unspoken words lingers between them. Dess has built a life without Ja-one that doesn't revolve around heartbreak and second chances. She has convinced herself she has moved on. Ja has moved on, too-at least in some ways. He's a father now. His daughter, Kaari, is the one pure, beautiful thing to come from the years he spent trying to be with someone else. But he never loved Kaari's mother the way he loved Dess. He couldn't. Because even after five years, after all the mistakes and all the time lost between them, Dess still owns his heart in a way no one else ever could. In this sequel to Wrong Kind Of Right, Ja and Dess find themselves questioning: Is love ever truly lost, or does it simply leave behind pieces-residuals of what once was, waiting for the right time to find its way back?

In Without Warning, healing is the journey neither of them expected. Amina is sweet, soft, and tired of being hurt. Elias is cold, distant, and convinced he's better off alone. Both scarred by their pasts. Both afraid to trust again. But God has a way of placing exactly who you need right in front of you-even when you swear you don't want them. Thrown together without warning, Amina and Elias are forced to confront their pain, their faith, and each other. What begins as tension slowly shifts into something real, something healing, something they never saw coming. Sometimes love doesn't arrive gently. Sometimes it arrives as the very person who challenges you to finally grow.
