Chip LaMonte is a 19 year old Italian girl who lives in the South Bronx (New York City) with her grandmother and little sister, Micky.

When her chance of going to college on a full scholarship for basketball comes to a halt, Chip takes on the responsibility of taking care of her little sister and helping her grandmother to make ends meet.

Inez Wilson is a 19 year old biracial girl who was raised in the South Bronx along with her four sisters and little brother. With a dream to attend Spelman College and major in medicine, her life comes to standstill after a series of family issues that she can't seem to escape.

Set in the summer of 1977, when fires, crime, poverty, drug abuse and urban decay engulfed the every day residents of the South Bronx, we see how Chip and Inez overcome life's obstacles, come to terms with being gay, and fall in love for the first time.

This is a true coming of age story, and I hope you all enjoy it!

But when the night takes a turn, exposing Deck's insecurities and childish tendencies, things don't go quite as planned.

Follow the messy, hilarious, and oddly heartfelt journey of Deck and Nyla as they navigate the highs and lows of their modern romance. "Actually, it's Deck and Nyla," Deck whines, nudging Nyla aside to claim the spotlight. "Nah, I think the narrator got it right the first time. Welcome to the Nyla Show," Nyla smirks, shoving Deck away with a well-placed hip bump. "It's a book, dude," Deck grumbles. "And you're an extra, baby," Nyla teases, running her fingers through her thick curls as Deck glares. Deck shrugs, then grins. "Guess it's my princess way or the highway." She wraps her arms around Nyla's waist, tackling her in an onslaught of kisses.

THE BRIDGE BETWEEN US by LexieHill82

A story of heartbreak, healing, and the love you never saw coming. Zarra Reynolds had it all figured out-until the man she trusted most shattered her world. After eight years together, James Moseley wasn't just her partner-he was her friend, her lover, her future. But when he suggested opening their relationship, Zarra's heart whispered no... and her instincts were right. One night changed everything. Blindsided by betrayal, Zarra stumbles-literally-into a stranger in a stairwell while trying to escape the wreckage of her love life. He's sharp-tongued, stoic, and unexpected. But behind that steel gaze lies someone who sees her in a way James never did. Now, on the verge of her 50th birthday, Zarra is forced to start over. Between therapy sessions, painful memories, and quiet mornings alone with her coffee, she never expected to feel anything for anyone again. But that stranger? He keeps showing up in her thoughts, in her life, and maybe, just maybe, in her heart. What if the love that heals you comes after the one that broke you? For fans of second chances, slow burns, and fierce women who choose themselves first.

Heavy is the Middle by Intellectual_Goddess

Being the middle daughter in a Haitian family is a full-time job-and Nadine Pierre is done clocking in. Her parents built an import-export empire and a legend to match. Big sister Roseline is the crown jewel-married, pregnant, polished at the company. Baby sister Jessica shines at school with perfect plans. Nadine? She's the curvy one, the single one, the "too much" one-writing a Black culture column that her mama calls a hobby and her editor calls "rebrandable." When her column gets cut and her mama parades an ex like a solution, Nadine snaps. Writing is the only place she feels alive-she won't trade it for a smile and a husband. Then comes Tariq, the Ledger's golden boy, assigned as her "balance" on a new dating series about hit reality show Heatwave. He's infuriating, incisive, and the only man who gets under her skin without even touching her. Heavy Is the Middle is messy, sexy, and unapologetic-about body shame, Haitian family politics, and wanting more than survival. For every Black girl told she was too loud, too big, too single, or too much-and burned brighter anyway.
