Allure has it all figured out - at least on the surface. With summer stretching wide before college begins, she's working, dancing through her days, and dodging boys like a sport. When her best friend convinces her to attend a party thrown by the charming-but-slick Tion, Allure steps into a night full of music, liquor, and laughter.
But something's off. A little too good. A little too smooth.
And the woman watching from the corner? She's not just there for decoration.
As the haze of fun begins to crack, Allure starts noticing what others don't - that she may have crossed a threshold she can't come back from. And the more she searches for her missing shoes, her missing memories, her missing self... the more she begins to wonder:
Was this party a setup? Or has she been gone far longer than she realized?
A haunting, slow-burn debut blending coming-of-age, Black girlhood, and the eerie edges of memory - The House on M Street is about what we carry, what we ignore, and what finds us when we stop pretending we're safe

Soon, secrets unravel: Bridget isn't just an old friend she's a woman with a vendetta rooted in betrayal, obsession, and death. As Tesha digs deeper, she discovers that Bridget was connected to Naomi, a girl who vanished without a trace... and that Tesha's own bloodline hides more than one devastating truth including the identity of her real father. With the help of her sharp-witted cousin Stephan, her emotionally guarded brother Worrick, and Dean a boy who's more connected to Bridget than any of them realized Tesha races to expose the darkness lurking beneath Bridget's perfect facade. But when their plan backfires and they're captured, it's up to the very people who failed them before Detective Carter, Jamel, and a newly awakened Dean to bring them back before Bridget makes her final move.

The Painting
"It took me five seconds to fall. The impact on my chest jarring my body but not my mind. I suppose this is the point where your life is supposed to flash before your eyes as time itself freezes - and it did in a way. But I didn't relive my life physically like walking through an old memory, déjà vu in each step. It was a feeling, something that started in my chest and spread to my fingertips, one so unique to me that it encapsulated each significant event into one single second." For as long as May can remember one mystery has haunted her world. A dirty window before her, the grim obstructing her vision, she has lived with a loss she can't identify - that is until one rainy night. Gradually the spots of dirt May scratched at for so long wipe away with the touch of a finger. But when she looks in will she like what she sees - or will curiosity kill the cat?Abgeschlossene Geschichte

The Dangerous Edge of Things
Tai Randolph thinks inheriting a Confederate-themed gun shop is her biggest headache-until she finds a murdered corpse in her brother's driveway. Even worse, her supposedly respectable brother begins behaving in decidedly non-innocent ways, like fleeing to the Bahamas and leaving her with both a homicide in her lap and the pointed suspicions of the Atlanta PD directed her way. Suddenly, she has to worry about clearing her own name, not just that of her wayward sibling, and a shop chock-full of firearms doesn't help matters. Complicating her search for answers is Trey Seaver, field agent for Phoenix, an exclusive corporate security firm hired to investigate the crime. Trey is fearless, focused, and-much to Tai's dismay-utterly impervious to bribes, threats and clever deceptions. Still in recovery from the car accident that left him cognitively and emotionally damaged, Trey has constructed a world of certainty and routine. He has powerful people to answer to, and the last thing he wants is an unpredictable stranger "detecting" on Phoenix turf. Tai's inquiry leads her from the cold-eyed glamour of Atlanta's adult entertainment scene to the gilded treachery of Tuxedo Road. Potential suspects abound, including violent stalkers, vengeful sisters, and a paparazzo with a taste for meth. But it takes another murder-and threats to her own life-to make Tai realize that to solve this crime, she has to trust the most dangerous man she's ever met.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
His Secrets And Lies (Bwwm)
The banging starts again but this time a lot louder. I can hear the girls screaming up stairs. I pick up my phone and dial 911. "Hello this is 911 what's your emergency?" "There are a bunch of wolves outside my house. I think they have rabies or something I'm not sure." The banging gets louder and I can feel my face getting wet from the tears. "Mamm did you say wolves are there?" "Yes Yes there are wolves about 10 of them out here in my front yard. I need help!" I hang up the phone and sit on the end of the stair case. I close my eyes and start praying. Something I haven't done in a while. "I have faith, there is a god. I have faith, there is a god, I have faith, there is a god." I repeat over and over. The glass breaks and I start screaming. I stand up and try to scramble up the stairs. The door comes falling down and there are about 10 wolves standing in front of my door. A woman emerges and walks toward me. She snaps her fingers and the pretty brown wolf is in front of me. Right there by my face. "Ridanna you know what to do." Her teeth is wrapped around my neck and she sinks them in. I try to scream but it's hard to. At first it hurts but now the pain no longer exists. I feel like there is no such thing as pain and I feel light as if I can float off the Earth. Fine as hell white boy with a pro-black activist fall for each other.
