Anything for a Slice of Lemon (An Original Urban Drama) (2025) by paris_monroe

"I swallowed hard. "Hey." "How you been? You look..." He pulled off his shades, his eyes immediately locking on mine. "Beautiful. My God." Heat crept up my neck. I tangled my fingers on the table, trying to ground myself and my nerves. His gaze dropped to my hands, and instantly, his jaw tightened. "What's that?" he asked, chin jerking toward my engagement ring. I forced a smile, wiggling my ring finger, happily and nervously at the same time. "I'm engaged." He stared at me blankly and coldly. By his facial expression, it was safe to say he wasn't happy for me. "To who?" -- Lemon was just a girl with big dreams and Teal, her first love, was the one who made them feel real. She thought she knew what her future would look like with Teal, until one day he vanished without a word, leaving her heart shattered in pieces. Four years later, Lemon has rebuilt herself.

In a town full of loud cousins, nosy neighbors, and old drama that refuses to die, she minds her business and lets the world spin without her. Then Nahlej Cordeaux steps in. He isn't ordinary. He's pressure in human form-a hood philosopher with a past carved into his skin and a stare that makes you forget every promise you made to yourself. From the moment he sees Ziya, it's done. He doesn't flirt; he studies. He circles. He claims. And once he locks in, he doesn't let go. Ziya promised herself she'd never fall for a man who could break her. Nahlej promised that if he touched her once, she'd never leave. What starts as a glance turns into a pull she can't shake. Between sharp-tongued best friends, family chaos, and chemistry that refuses to quiet down, their story unfolds reckless, obsessive, and addictive. He isn't the villain. He's just unhinged enough to make love feel dangerous in all the right ways. This isn't a fairytale. It's grown, messy, Southern hood love. The kind that lingers. The kind that claims. The kind you don't forget. 🔥 Only If You Stay is a Southern Black romance about a love that doesn't ask-it takes and restores.

Thugs and Hood Love: COMPLETE (Editing) by UniquelyTwinkle

I'm not that great at summarizing stories, but don't let that stop you from reading. WARNING...WARNING...WARNING... There's a lot of sexual scenes (very detailed) and cursing, so PARENTAL DISCRETION is strongly recommended throughout the entire story. Life on the streets is always survivor of the fittest. So when 22 year old Lyric starts to get involved with Billy, the biggest drug lord on the east coast, she thinks she has the perfect life. But being with Billy, Lyric learns that more enemies than either of them can keep count of is also part of the package. Will Lyric be willing to go to hell and back just to prove that hood love does exist? Or will thugs and hood love be defeated again? Stay tuned, but let the record be known that there's never a happily-ever-after in the hood, and not in this story either. There's only the constant thought of survival...
