Set in a city where news doesn't sleep, and sports is sacred, fate brings together two very different kinds of people.
For Lorelle Fisher, magazine and newspaper writer and editor, sports is as important to her as a bag of knock off Jimmy Choo's. Completely irrelevant.
For Pierre Bronc, point guard of the New York Knicks, the news doesn't concern him, no matter how many times he appears on it. It's just there to make him look bad. Literally, he looks fatter on T.V.
The lives of these two people will collide brutally, leaving in their wake a trail of horror, destruction, disappointment, a whole lot of sex, and maybe even a little love.

Nysir finally graduates high school - not just with a diploma in hand, but with the girl he once thought he'd only dream about by his side. The future looked promising. He had the love, the talent, and the drive. Back home, he was that guy - the name everyone knew, the one who ran the courts, the hometown legend with highlight reels and college scouts watching his every move. Life felt like it was finally aligning. But everything changed the moment he stepped onto his new campus. College ball is a different beast. The air's heavier, the stakes are higher, and nobody cares about what you did back home. Here, every gym is filled with killers - dudes just as fast, just as hungry, just as desperate to rise. Some are stronger. Some are smarter. Some are willing to do whatever it takes. And in this world, loyalty means nothing if it gets in the way of the dream. It's no longer about teamwork - it's every man for himself. Trust is a luxury. Friends can turn into rivals overnight. One mistake, one missed step, and someone's already in line to take your place. Now, Nysir has to fight not only to earn respect, but to keep it. To hold onto love, his spot, and his sanity in a world where betrayal doesn't come with a warning. And the question that haunts him every night: Is being the best worth losing yourself for?Complete
Smile For Me Captain
|(BxB)| Eli gasped dramatically. "Okay, that earns you like, three boyfriend points." Ryan raised a brow, amused. "Is there a scale?" "There's always a scale." Eli took a sandwich, unwrapping it. "You're at, uh, seven points total now." "Seven out of...?" Eli pretended to think. "Let's say fifty." Ryan scoffed. "Fifty? Harsh grading." "Earn the rest," Eli said, smirking before taking a bite. ᯽ Eli never meant to fall for the captain of the basketball team. He just wanted to get through senior year quietly, taking photos for the yearbook and avoiding human interaction whenever possible. But when he's assigned to cover the basketball team-meaning taking photos and interviewing players-his life turns into a blur of camera flashes, flying basketballs, and one very annoyingly perfect captain. Ryan Calloway has it all-charm, talent, and the whole school wrapped around his finger. Being the pastor's kid comes with expectations, though... and none of them include falling for the beautiful boy behind the lens. But Eli's smart mouth is addictive. His dimple is distracting. And soon, Ryan's double life starts getting harder to balance-especially when every stolen glance feels like a confession waiting to happen. Between clumsy interviews, accidental almost-kisses, and late-night games that turn into something softer, Eli and Ryan find themselves caught in the one thing neither of them saw coming. Love. And maybe, just maybe-it's worth smiling for. ᯽

JUST CREEPIN'
"What's wrong ma?" He questioned after a few seconds when she didn't respond to him. "Do you plan on having sex with me." She rested her chin on her knees that were pulled up to her chest. "Why?"

THE ART OF AK
"Beautiful things don't ask for attention." In a world that thrives on conformity, August is an anomaly. Raised in a secretive overbearing family, she was chosen to leave its hidden grounds-not for freedom, but for duty. Sent to college to become the strategic mind for her generation behind the family's growing empire, she tries to move through the world like a ghost, draped in gothic shadows with secrets too heavy to share but her style is just too much to go unnoticed by judging eyes unscathed. Then she meets Kason through his older brother. A rising rapper with a reckless charm and a hunger for something real, dealing with battles of his own, he's instantly drawn to August's eerie demeanor and the quiet storm that lingers behind her dark mysterious eyes. She's nothing like the women he's used to-unbothered by trends, and untouched by the need for validation. The more she resists, the deeper he falls, his infatuation turning into an obsession he can't shake. One he cant let go of. As their worlds collide, the slow burn of their connection threatens to ignite everything August has been taught to suppress. With her past closing in and expectations pressing down, she must decide if she's willing to defy everything she's ever known for the chance at something dangerously real. In a society that demands she fit a mold, August stands in defiance. Unfortunately, love has a way of making even the strongest question their silence.

More than lies
Maya Reyes never meant to fake-date a celebrity. She's just the sarcastic, volleyball-playing girl-next-door with a secret passion for music and a tendency to keep people at arm's length. But when her best friend-and rising star athlete-Malakai Ward panics at a charity auction and begs her to win a date with him (to avoid his obsessive ex), she agrees. What starts as a favor spirals into headlines, rumors, and one very inconvenient PR stunt: pretend to be in love. For real. To the world, they're the perfect couple. To their close-knit friend group? Just friends. To Maya? A safe way to bring a fake boyfriend to her ex's wedding without any messy feelings. But as she helps Malakai navigate his anxiety and he pushes her to release music under a secret pseudonym, the lines blur-and faking it gets harder. Then the secrets unravel: her hidden music career, the little sister she's raising in silence, and the grief she never talks about. Malakai falls first. Maya falls harder. And when the truth finally breaks them apart, they'll both have to choose between fear and vulnerability, pride and forgiveness, pretending and something real. Because sometimes, the most beautiful love stories begin with a lie.Complete
