Young and ambitious, Taiden Woods doesn't play by the book. As a man at the helm of his media empire, he doesn't credit his success from playing fair. To make it to the top, he's had to lie, cheat and steal his way there. He's nothing more than a common crook dressed in a fine-tailored suit. A man who knows no bounds when it comes to getting his way. To the world, Taiden Woods is invincible.

Or at least, the next best thing.

One competitor stands in the way of Taiden and his rise to the top. 

Career-driven and strong-willed Athena Reynolds is a woman afraid of failure. Her constant strive for excellence put her in charge of Healdsburg Corporation - a leader in the media industry. But a lack of finances, and a power-hungry rival at her neck, threatened to tarnish her company's good name.  

Athena and Taiden struggle between right and wrong in a fight for power. As business and pleasure become the same. And the line between love and hate wears thin in their conquest to rule the other. There's always the risk of losing everything and the chance to have it all.

For Taiden, he'll find he may want to acquire more than Athena's company.

Who said all was fair in love and war?

Angie snapped, as the graffiti covered trains roared by. "What do you see in me, anyway? I'm like any other black girl on the street!" "You really want to know what I see in you, Angela?" Austin spoke up. "I see a woman, a beautiful, smart, caring woman, with a fine sense of humor and with a good soul. That's what set you apart from all other women, not just black women that I have crossed paths with in my lifetime," he said. Tears threatened to form in Angie's eyes at his words. "I also see a woman who's been hurt so many times, that she's afraid to be close to the source," Austin continued. "Well, I'll have you know, Austin, that I am a grown woman, I'm not afraid of anything," Angie retorted with bravado. "Oh? So then why do you keep pushing me away?" Austin asked coldly. "Why can't you let me love you?" ****************************************************************************************** Set in New York City in the early 1980s, college graduate Angie Carver meets young, handsome plumbing trainee Austin Phillips on the bus. Sparks fly, and eventually they fall in love. Austin is head over heels in love with Angie. While Angie loves him too, it's hard for her to reciprocate that love, the reasons being that Austin is a little younger than she is, and most importantly, their skin color, as Austin is white and Angie is black, causing strong disapproval from her overbearing mother, a jealous ex lurking around, and an ignorant "best friend" who doesn't understand. Will Austin and Angie rise above or will their love crumble before it begins?

Unfortunately, she gets nervous whenever she has to give a speech in class. When her college roommates take her to a bar, Ashanté gets drunk for the first time and sings karaoke songs on a dare. Unknown to her, a music exec happens to be there that night. Producer Bryce Walker is white, wealthy and womanizing, and he knows the sound of money when he hears it. Ashanté sounds like ka-ching. But the music industry's a vicious world, especially for someone as innocent and shy as Ashanté. Bryce has always had a policy of not getting involved with employees, but as he watches the cutthroat business turn his star act into a drug addict, he realizes his feelings go deeper than just professional concern. Can he turn things around and save Ashanté before the industry destroys her? This is a romance novel; of course he can. ٩(˘◡˘)۶
