Still His Wife by iamsavvymonet

"She got my name, my kids, my heart - and a bucket in the basement 'cause she don't know how to stop." - Malik Mitchell Still His Wife A Toxic Black Romance Novel Malik Mitchell never touched another woman. Never needed to. Jade Carter was his first, his only, and the only one reckless enough to keep breaking him just to see if he'll crack. She cusses out his mama, leaves her kids to go cheat, and comes home smelling like another man. She got a salon he paid for, a Bentley in the driveway, and a bedroom with a mirror on the ceiling and a stripper pole in the middle - and still she says he's not enough. His sisters want to fight her. His mother calls her a curse. But Malik? Malik cries over her. Worships her. Checks her panties for lies. And when she finally runs one time too many? He locks the door behind her and brings her dinner like nothing happened. Because she's still his wife. And he don't care what she say - she ain't never leaving.

Show Me What Love Really Is by Pimpinz

Lay'lani's life been hell behind closed doors-pretty smiles covering bruises, silent cries no one ever hears. Her boyfriend Man-Man? Ain't just abusive... he's obsessed. Controlling. Feared in the streets. And when she finally tries to leave, he makes one thing clear-if he can't have her, nobody can. Then Da'joun steps in. Lowkey but dangerous. The one who sees through her pain. He never asked to fall for her-but now that he has, he'll do anything to protect her... even if that means killing for her. Now with a baby on the way, enemies circling, and Man-Man hunting her like prey-every moment is borrowed time. This ain't just a love story... It's survival. How far would you go to protect the one you love... when love itself could get you killed?

Dabbling in Danger by Plumpsugarplum

He straightens his posture, his tone is even, voice calm and his eyes soften. "If," he raises a finger at me, slows his speech slightly and enunciates more. "I recieve more than a little trouble from you. I will, give you what you deserve. That is my final word." He quickly spins away from me and walks down the hall to the other side of the house. (Disclaimer: Chapters contain mature language, frequent mention of alcohol and marijuana, sexual content/language, and infidelity.) So very close to adulthood, Malina is having a blast tearing shit up with a smile on her face. When slapped with a notice of expulsion from school, she is given the option to complete senior year elsewhere. This is where things get difficult. The school and foster parents Malina begrudgingly went home to, somehow contacted Tiana, Malina's estranged sister. Having absolutely no contact for years, Malina is forced under the roof and guardianship of Tiana and Adeen, Tiana's husband.. The change causes old wounds to be torn open and internalized emotions to be unleashed. Adeen finds himself stuck between desperately keeping his wife together and preventing his wife's sister from wreaking havoc on everything around.

cover by @JaelynnMoore 𝐆𝐚𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 It's so much easier to spread lies about people than it is to spread the truth. That's what Gabriel knows to be true, at least. According to everyone in his town, he's a monster. He doesn't deserve to be walking among the rest of them. That's far from the truth, though. He was never good at being alone, but it became something he was used to. After everything he'd gone through, he craved solitude. Until she showed up. She wiggled her way right into his heart and now all he craved was her. 𝐀𝐥𝐲𝐧𝐚 Moving to a small lakeside town in Washington was not where Alyna saw her life taking her. She also didn't expect that she'd fall so hard for the brooding mechanic who lived there. Everyone tells her that she should stay away from him. All of the rumors say that he's dangerous, but all she ever feels with him is safe. With obstacles at every turn, will their love be enough to endure even the worst challenge they'll face? Or will they fall apart under the weight? started: 12/15/2023 published: 05/18/2024 completed: highest rankings: #2 bwwm #4 ongoing

Fallin' For My Bodyguard by TheRealAriJ15

✨ She built a brand. He built a wall. Now they're both learning how to love past the pain. ✨ Allure King is more than a face-she's a force. A world-renowned model and influencer with a multi-million dollar empire built on beauty, resilience, and control. But behind the flawless photos and fierce reputation lies a woman quietly unraveling. After years of loyalty, love, and sacrifice, she finds herself publicly betrayed by the man she gave everything to-NBA star Malik James. Enter Romelo Creed. Fresh out of prison and trying to outrun the shadows of his past, Romelo takes a job protecting Allure... only to find himself drawn to the fire in her spirit, and the sadness in her silence. He's rough around the edges, deadly when necessary, but soft when it matters most. As her bodyguard, he was supposed to protect her from the world. He never expected she'd be the one to save him. What starts as tension turns into trust. What feels like lust begins to blur into something deeper. But Malik isn't finished-his stunts grow bolder, and the past refuses to stay buried. As the media stirs the drama and secrets begin to surface, Allure and Romelo are forced to confront the one thing they've both been avoiding: How do you protect a heart that's never felt safe? Love was never in the plan. But fate doesn't care about plans.

Meeting Maria by HollyBarnes393

Trigger warnings apply This story contains abuse, a mention of baby loss in the past, murder, blood, sexual kinks (including a panty kink to end all others) and more - if any of this would offend or upset you, perhaps stay clear. Accused of murder, Maria Lopez was convicted of a crime she said she didn't commit. After 6 years of incarceration , the new governor of Westmore Penitentiary has taken pity on Maria and has arranged for two of his close friends to investigate not only Maria's case but her state of mind, in hope of finding new evidence to exonerate her from the crime she was convicted of. While investigating her story, they discover a slightly 'unique' woman and everything becomes even more complicated when, both her newly appointed psychiatrist and lawyer, fall in love with her. Can they save her? Can they overcome their own jealousy of each other and more importantly will the stalker, they discover, cause too many issues for them all? TRIGGER WARNING - contains some dark scenes of abuse and mention of SA. (Other triggers mentioned at start) but mainly this contains steamy sex between two and sometimes three partners. This is a dark romance standalone involving two men one woman. This is a medium burn but when the heat starts, the fire is off the charts and just doesn't stop 🔥
