When her stepdad gets locked up for moving weight, she's forced to start fresh in a new city with too many eyes and not enough trust. She promised herself she wouldn't get attached-just finish school and stay quiet. But then there's her. The bold one. The one who looks at her like she already knows the story. She's soft-spoken, guarded... but pressure like that? It's hard to ignore.

SOLEMN
In a hectic town, two women are drawn together by an unexpected bond, though their lives are worlds apart. Taraji, a talented hairstylist, has spent years trapped in the confines of a toxic relationship, her dreams smothered by the weight of her boyfriend's cruelty. But when an unforeseen opportunity to start anew presents itself, Taraji finally gathers the strength to walk away, leaving behind the life she once knew. Her journey to freedom is not without its struggles, but she embraces the unknown with the quiet hope of rediscovery. Meanwhile, Fantasia, a soft-spoken mother, finds herself tethered to a life she cannot escape. Stuck in an emotionally stifling relationship with a man who dismisses her dreams, she spends her days quietly caring for others, burying her own desires beneath layers of duty and fear. Despite her longing for something more, she remains immobilized by the expectations of her world. When their paths intersect, an unspoken understanding forms between them. Taraji sees in Fantasia a reflection of her past-of quiet resilience and unvoiced longing-and Fantasia recognizes in Taraji the possibility of a life beyond the walls she's built for herself. As their connection deepens, the tenderness between them becomes a delicate refuge, a space where healing begins. Together, they navigate the fragile space between freedom and constraint, between the past that defines them and the future they dare to dream.

TRUTH HALL
Welcome to True Hall, where five women and an unforgettable freshman year collide. Fantasia, Taraji, Regina, Danielle, and Tasha arrive at college expecting new beginnings, but nothing prepares them for the friendships, drama, and undeniable chemistry that will shape their journey. From playful rivalries over the best room to late-night games that blur the lines between fun and something more, their bond deepens as they navigate love, heartbreak, and the challenges of self-discovery. As the months unfold, secrets are revealed, tensions rise, and emotions run wild. Some connections will strengthen, others will be tested, and by the end of the year, none of them will be the same. Five women. One apartment. A year that will change everything.
HOSPITAL FIDDLE
When Taraji steps into her new role as a Patient Transporter at a bustling Detroit hospital, she's prepared for long shifts, demanding patients, and the usual workplace challenges. What she isn't prepared for is Fantasia-an older, seemingly straight woman who carries herself with quiet strength and a hint of mystery. What begins as casual encounters in hospital hallways slowly turns into something undeniable. Their connection is warm, magnetic, and impossible to ignore-but both women carry secrets that could either bring them closer or tear them apart. Between late-night conversations, unspoken glances, and the chaos of hospital life, Taraji and Fantasia must decide: will they face their truths together, or keep hiding in the shadows of their pasts? A dramatic, romantic, and mysterious journey about love, vulnerability, and the healing that only two kindred souls can bring.
Between folds
Fantasia never thought folding laundry could feel like temptation. Best friends and partners in crime, she and Taraji have shared everything-jokes, secrets, trouble, and late-night escapes. But one quiet afternoon in the warmth of a sunlit room, the simple act of folding clothes turns into something far more dangerous: a slow unraveling of boundaries they've both pretended not to see. Taraji, bold and unashamed, pushes at every edge, teasing Fantasia past her comfort zone, past laughter, into the heat of wanting. Fantasia, intersex and still learning to claim her body with confidence, finds herself torn between the safety of friendship and the thrill of desire. As a single touch becomes a thousand, and playful banter turns into confessions neither can take back, the question lingers-once their hands wander past the fabric, will they be able to fold their friendship neatly again, or will passion leave it deliciously messy forever?Complete
His Femme,Her King
Fantasia ain't your average femme-she bad, she bold, and she know exactly how to shut a room down. Nails done, hair laid, mouth slick-she a whole problem and don't apologize for it. Taraji? That's the block's king. Cold eyes, heavy chain, strapped and respected. He walk like power, talk like danger-and everybody know not to test him. But what nobody know is that behind the fitted cap and the rep, he carry a truth only the right woman could handle: intersex, nonbinary, still claiming his crown as a man. When Fantasia and Taraji link, it ain't no regular love story. It's hood fire-smut, secrets, and loyalty tested in the middle of block beef and envy. She his femme, his weakness and his strength. He her king, her danger and her safe place. Together they ride, fuck, and fight their way into a love that's louder than the streets. This ain't no fairy tale-it's raw, it's dirty, it's hood royalty.Complete
