After aging out of the foster system with nothing but survival instincts and a pit bull heart, Nia Lewis is determined to turn her pain into purpose. With a two-bedroom apartment, a loyal Cane Corso named Zeus, and a dream to earn her cosmetology license, she's clawing her way out of the past.
But when a mysterious letter reveals that her real family were wealthy drug lords, Nia's life twists into a deadly maze of secrets, betrayal, and legacy. She's pulled into a world of power vacuums, street politics, and corrupt city officials-and suddenly, she's not just surviving. She's leading.
With a crew of unlikely allies, a haunted past, and the streets watching her rise, Nia must choose: rebuild the city that broke her, or rule it from the top.
This is a story of grit, trauma, sisterhood, loyalty, Black excellence, and the fine line between justice and vengeance.

Carter Bloodlines
Carter Bloodline Book One of The Carter Dynasty Blood runs thick in New York's streets-and for the Carter siblings, it runs deadly. Nyah Carter moves like a shadow with her all-girl crew-scammers, thieves, and hustlers who flip marks and run plays with precision. Purple hair blazing, dice bracelet on her wrist, she's determined to turn the game upside down and claim her spot. Her brother, Nazir Carter, builds his empire from the other side-corner by corner, brick by brick. With his loyal crew behind him, he's pushing weight, stacking money, and carving out a name the city can't ignore. Different hustles. Same bloodline. Same ambition. But in a city where betrayal waits around every corner and power never comes without a price, Nyah and Nazir will learn the hard way: family ties can lift you higher...or choke you out. For the Carters, the streets aren't just a hustle. They're a legacy.

As their worlds intertwine, the truth begins to surface in pieces, forcing her to question everything she thought she knew about love, trust, and herself. Their connection is real, undeniable even, but the double life he lives threatens to pull them under.
