"The Brotherhood separates humans from the animals, athletes from the sociopaths. They're in the shadows, in every gym, dojo, mat, ring, and octagon. They defend the sacred art of combat, ensuring fighters don't use their skills to exploit the weak. Or worse, to kill."
---
Conner is a former U.S. Army pilot who thinks he's too volatile to be protective.
Delilah is a Pakistani-American writer who thinks she's too different to be trusted.
Expelled from his fight gym, Conner is hired as Delilah's private security by her superhero-movie-star boyfriend JR. But Conner yearns to fight again, if only The Brotherhood would absolve him for yielding to The Darkness.
Try as he might, Conner's reserved Texan demeanor is no match for a brown-eyed Brooklyn girl who talks too much... even if, she too, battles The Darkness.
And JR, desperate to be an off-screen hero, may be involved in something much darker.
But when bigotry terrorizes Los Angeles, who will confront The Darkness in a city ripe with summer blockbusters and barren of heroes? Who makes up The Brotherhood? And what, if anything, elevates us above the animals?

Burning for Her: A Love Out of Tune
"She said she hates me?" Then let her hate me so much she can't breathe without thinking of me. I don't want her back just to hold her hand. I want her to be mine. Her soul, her fire, her chaos... all of it. And I swear on every ounce of pain I carry... I'll make her feel safe again. I'll make her feel chosen. I'll make her feel like no man on this cursed earth can touch what's mine. Because she is mine. She always was. And I don't care if the stars fall, or if the gods scream, or if fate tries to rewrite the story... This time, I'll cry for her. I'll bleed for her. I'll kneel for her if I have to. Because she's the war I'll never stop fighting. So, Ira... Be angry. Be distant. Be cruel if you must. But I'm coming to you. Just a few more hours, and you'll see... The man who once broke you... Will be the man who worships your soul like it's the only truth that ever mattered. And I promise... You will love me. Even if it starts with hate. Even if I have to burn myself to light your way. Because what is mine... Will be mine...

Under Oath | BWWM ✔️
BLACK WOMEN MC DISCLAIMER: This book contains explicit content and mature themes intended for readers aged 18 and over. It is not a traditional romance, but rather a deeply complex and dark exploration of a toxic relationship. The characters' dynamics involve intense emotional manipulation, power struggles, and actions that may be triggering to some readers.

"Tell me again how you don't want me," he whispers, dragging his lips down her neck. "Say it under oath, and I might even believe you." Jasmine Taylor doesn't lose. Not in the courtroom, not in life. At just twenty-six, she's built an ironclad reputation: fierce, brilliant, and unshakably professional. But when she's assigned the biggest case of her career-defending Dimitri Alekseev, a dangerously alluring Russian immigrant accused of murder-her world begins to crack. Dimitri isn't just a suspect. He's a problem. Tall, tattooed, and terrifyingly unreadable, with ties to a powerful family the law doesn't dare touch. The evidence against him is overwhelming. The press wants him buried. And deep down, Jasmine suspects the whispers are true. But the more time she spends with him, the harder it becomes to separate fact from instinct. Because beneath his cold exterior is something intoxicating. Calculated charm. Raw heat. And secrets whispered in the dark. As the trial barrels forward, Jasmine finds herself pulled into his world-one filled with shadows, blood ties, and undeniable temptation. The closer she gets to the truth, the more she risks not just her career, but her safety... and her soul. What happens when the woman who always plays by the rules falls for the man who was born to break them?Complete
