Keisha Mahrez had a... weird start. Abandoned by her birth mother and father, with no birth certificate or anything tying her to her her biological beginnings, she was picked up by, then, small time thug, Dre Mahrez and his, then, girlfriend, Tanya. They adopt the girl and decide to raise her as their own. Obviously, Keisha is not their own and that fact is more vivid because, well, Dre and Tanya are as black as it gets. Proper street raised niggas, and Keisha is as white as it comes.
But that all stops at skin level.
Beyond that, home girl considers herself as black as it gets. From the language, to the attitude and even to the affiliations. Keisha has never seen herself as anything but black. And with a strong support system from her parents and friends, she's never really cared otherwise.
Enter Dinah Pryce. Black, beautiful, sassy and straight. Keisha's "blackness" and charm throws her for a loop she can't seem to resist. Living with a grandfather who cant seem to let go of the "old days" of open racism, coupled with her own tendency to over analyse things... well, you can only imagine how much she nitpicks at the "nigga speaking", corn-rows-wearing white girl who can't seem to understand the meaning of the words, "Straight" and "Cultural appropriation".
Two girls with two different views, drawn in to each other by something they can't really define. It becomes a question of, "What's colour got to do with it?"

I let out a soft Mmm and instantly opened my eyes to see her looking at me with her head slightly tilted to the side and an amused smile playing on her lips. "Do you always have that reaction to things that taste good?" The possibility of a double meaning to her question wasn't lost on me and it surprised me, making me cough. I cleared my throat before answering. "Well, it depends.." I answered carefully. "On what?" She leaned forward slightly with what looked like an almost mischievous glint in her eyes. "On what I'm eating," I fired back sounding a lot more confident than I felt. Her eyebrows went up slightly. *** When Ren stumbles upon a job opportunity, she never thinks that it'll completely change her life. Meeting Cameron offers her something she thought she'd never get.. a second chance. Little does she know that it will also mean finally finding herself.

*PLEASE COMMENT AND VOTE* Forced into the game by his father, Sincere aka "Coke", had a different type of hunger for the hustle. He did what he had to do by any means, even if that meant killing a few people. Unlike some of the others in his crew, Sincere was smart and had no regrets for the choices he's made. One revengeful drive-by however, was one moment he wished he could take back. A lot of innocent lives were ruined that day, including Hazel Barnes, a local crime activist who crawled her way into a young thug's mind and heart without even seeing his face. Hazel had a bright future ahead of her. Being the prodigy child, there was nothing she could do wrong. Except for falling in love with the one guy who goes against everything she believes in. Hazel doesn't know what's right and what's wrong. But what she does know is, she won't let her disability stop her from going after the one thing that makes her feel alive again. Even if that one thing is what caused her to be disabled to begin with. Both Sincere and Hazel can't help but go after the thing they want. And it's because of this that they go down a long path of destruction and disaster together. In the end, the one thing that's most important, is the only thing that keeps them apart. Maybe for good.Complete![πππ ππππ ππ ππ ππππππ [πππ]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/396913275-256-k56862.jpg)

After killing her abusive ex in self-defense, Nia Carter, a quiet, emotionally scarred young woman from Atlanta, is sentenced to 7 years in a women's prison. Lost, afraid, and broken, she meets King, a dominant, charismatic stud serving 25 to life for a street murder. King runs the block and has the respect of guards and inmates alike. From the moment King sees Nia, she's drawn to her vulnerability, her beauty, and her silence. She becomes her protector, fighting off threats and making sure nobody touches her. Over time, they form a deep emotional bond that borders on obsession for King - though Nia sees her as a friend, possibly more, in a place where love is survival. When Nia is released early after 5 years, she promises to write. But life moves on. She reinvents herself, gets therapy, becomes a nurse, and even marries a kind man who doesn't know the full truth about her past. Ten years later, King is finally released on parole. She searches for Nia with one purpose: to reclaim what she believes is hers. But when she sees Nia with her husband, the jealousy eats her alive. King makes a deadly choice: she kills the husband in cold blood, thinking she's freeing Nia. Now Nia is caught between the new life she built... and the old protector who never let her go.Complete
The unexpected
Von kills like she breathes-calm, cold, constant. Tahani doesn't just watch people die-she decides when. Vonn'asia, or just Von, is twenty-three and deadly as fuck. A storm with a trigger finger. Raised in blood, forged in silence, she's carved her name into the city's bones. She doesn't flinch, doesn't forgive, and damn sure doesn't fear. People say her name when they pray no one's listening. When she hunts, she doesn't leave witnesses-she leaves warnings. Then one night, bleeding and laughing like death ain't never met her, she runs into Tahani Aguado-a quiet girl in blue scrubs with hands too steady, eyes too knowing. Tahani is twenty-two. Mysterious. Methodical. And vicious behind closed doors. Her body count's a whisper, her smile a trap, and her heart? Frostbitten beyond repair. She's been surviving off precision kills and secrets too heavy to speak. She doesn't help people. She ends them. But something about Von made her open that door. Made her act against every rule she's lived by. Now the city's about to bleed. Two women built from violence. Both with pasts that could burn empires down. One running from chaos. One becoming it. What started with a single bullet explodes into something brutal-lust, loyalty, betrayal, and bodies stacking too fast to count. In a world where mercy is weakness, and love is a liability, Von and Tahani don't fall for each other- They crash. Hard. And when killers collide? Some cities never recover.

Every man wants a woman to call his own, but does Kerstin's prince truly have what it takes to claim her heart?Complete

I can still hear you rolling your eyes. Superheroes. Like in comic books? Like people with super speed and mutant powers? Yes. But this isn't about the fight they have. More about the lives they lead without the masks. But just keep in mind, people who live in the world have all different skin colours. Do not assume my characters are of one unless I state them explicitly. and diversity is welcome here in my novel! Anyhow, back to the story. Ever wonder where supervillains go after their fight with the hero? What about the other side of the story? It's not like they sit in their lair cackling all day and planning how to kidnap reporters. What about the lives they lead? And instead of just focusing on that, what if the superhero and the supervillain knew each other? I mean, can they see behind the mask? No, so their identities are secret. So what if the hero and villain were best friends? What if they were roommates? What if they were falling for each other? And what happens when they find out? Now, I assume you know all of these questions will be answered in this book. But hold on. It's going to take a while. You're in for a bumpy ride. And if any of you got any of the references in this description, give yourself a pat on the back. That is a beautiful thing.
