Crooked Smile.
Montana Jalahni Banks is a ghost-a name whispered in the streets but never confirmed. No paper trail. No fingerprints. No slip-ups. He built his empire in the shadows, moving with the kind of precision that makes him untouchable. But in a game where loyalty runs thin and enemies multiply, even ghosts can be hunted. Tahani Elise Campbell was born into survival. She and her little sister, Tahara, have never known a life untouched by struggle. Orphaned young and tossed into the system, they learned quickly that softness gets you killed. For Tahani, writing became her only escape-but words can't keep the lights on, and dreams don't scare off monsters. When their paths collide, it's fire and ice. Tahani sees through Montana's coldness, past the mask he shows the world. And Montana? He knows better than to let someone like her close. She's smart, too observant...and worst of all-she makes him feel. But in a world where love is dangerous and survival is never guaranteed...will a crooked smile be enough to save them, or will it cost them everything?

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.

"So when you gon' stop playing and let me hit that shit, Zuria?" Mitch asked while he smoked a blunt in my mother's living room and we both sat on the floor. "Let you hit this?" I asked, raising an eyebrow as I watched him blow smoke into the air. "Yeah." He smirked, cockily. "How about when you learn how to talk to your girlfriend?" I took the blunt out of this hands and smashed it on the ashtray that was on the coffee table. "Whatchu do that for?" He bit his bottom lip, leaning into me. "Hm?" He went on, softly biting my neck. "I've told you, you can't smoke in here, Mitchell." "You're really not even supposed to be here." I said to him, considering my mother did not condone boys in her house but here he was. He'd completely ignored me though as he mushed his head into my neck, leaving small kisses. "Stop." I whined playfully as he pushed himself up onto me and kissed my lips, pushing me backwards with our lips still attached. "Mitch." I spoke nervously as he climbed on top of me while I now laid my back onto the carpet. "Let me hit that shit, ma." He spoke softly into my ear as he continued leaving kisses on my neck. "Mitch, we cant. My mom will be home from work soon." I expressed to him but he ran his hands up my school skirt anyway. "Stop bitchin'." "Let me finally pop that cherry, Z." He spoke, putting his lips on mine as he slowly moved my underwear aside and rubbed his fingers against my Girl. "Mm." I moaned, unfamiliar with this feeling but it felt great. And though I knew my mother would be here soon, I no longer wanted to stop. He continued rubbing it as I laid there, looking up into his eyes. As I did, he smirked down at me and I smiled small, rubbing a hand down his cheek. I was so in love with this boy.Complete

THE CHAIR
One blunt changed everything. Jada trusted the wrong friend and ended up laced, humiliated, and left to rot on the cold back streets like she was nothing. Once just a bold, beautiful girl with a slick mouth and big dreams, she's now tangled in the very world she tried to outrun - drugs, betrayal, and the kind of pain that turns your heart into stone. After being exposed on social media and thrown to the wolves by the girl she called "sister," Jada hits rock bottom. But rock bottom ain't where her story ends - it's where the real grind begins. With nowhere else to go, Jada steps into the strip club - The Chair - where the lights are low, the money's fast, and the rules don't care about your past. On that stage, she learns how to survive again. How to move through shame. How to turn pain into power. But the streets don't let go easy, and neither do the demons that followed her into the club. With only her Grandma Marie's love holding her down and dangerous men circling closer, Jada has to decide: will she rise from the ashes, or will the game pull her under for good? The Chair is a raw, unfiltered ride through addiction, betrayal, sex work, sisterhood, survival, and the strip club hustle. Gritty, real, and unforgettable - this is not a fairy tale. It's the truth for too many women.Complete
