"This was suppose to be easy, nobody was suppose to get hurt". Twenty year old Ivory Santana was what most people would call friendly and caring. She'd be the person you'd least expect to have a father running one of the biggest drug trafficking industry's in America. Ivory has went through great measures keeping that part of her life private while attending college at NYU, that is until she's taken. Twenty two year old Jade and his older brother Ohaji are 2 completely different types of people that you wouldn't expect to even associate with each other if they weren't related. With dreams of one day being as legendary as their father once was. The two brothers were given the task of kidnapping their boss, big Al's enemy's daughter until he agrees to compromise. Sounds simple enough right? WRONG. What happens when Ivory teams up with the brothers and this turns into a cat and mouse game between bonds and blood?

Kimmie has no choice but to sign up for a new life even more dangerous than her previous one, forced to protect who's supposed to be her enemy for what seems to be a better future.

In the streets of NYC, nothing is as it seems-and everyone has an angle. Yomi is smart, sexy, and caught in the crossfire of her father's dangerous game. Forced undercover to save him, she steps into a world of velvet lights, cash stacks, and power plays-where every smile hides a secret, every touch could be a trap, and every heartbeat is a risk. Then there's Nas-handsome, lethal, untouchable. The kind of man that makes you want everything he won't give. Their chemistry is explosive, their flirtation electric, but Yomi has a mission to complete... and crossing him could cost everything. From VIP tables to private dances, the lines between desire, danger, and betrayal blur. And watching from the shadows, Agent Kane keeps his eye on her, jealousy simmering as Yomi is pulled deeper into Nas's world. Fast, fierce, and dripping with urban heat, Velvet Lies is a story of power, lust, and the ultimate game of who controls the night.

In Atlanta, power hides behind designer heels and million-dollar smiles. Kimmy thought surviving the Bellarie family was hard enough - until Mallory started looking at her differently. Mallory Bellarie has spent her whole life controlling every situation around her. Perfect image. Perfect reputation. Perfect family. Then Kimmy walked into her world and ruined every rule she ever followed. Now secrets are leaking, enemies are watching, and one forbidden relationship could destroy both of them. But the most dangerous thing? Neither of them wants to stop.

Massiah Ira Gray- I always had my eyes on one female. I just hate that I got locked up right after I crushed. Aoki Dream Gates- A one-night stand changed my life forever. He just had to disappear when I found out I was pregnant.

After all, they are opps by association. Maybe keeping their love hidden from their brothers who are beefing, will allow them to be together. Or maybe it will ruin everything, ending in chaos and causing hell. • • • 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞... - Mature/Strong Language - Mature Content (18+ Recommended) - Sex/Smut (Detailed) - Substances (Alcohol, drugs, etc) - Violence (Including weapons) - Other Possible Triggering Content REACHED: ----- #𝟏 in 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐱𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝 #𝟏 in 𝐛𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐛𝐢𝐚𝐧 #𝟐𝟖 in 𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲
