Laced In Lies

Naima's life changed the night bullets shattered her front porch and left her mother fighting for her life. Her brother's street mess put a target on their backs-but Naima swore she was done with all of that. New city. New name. New rules.

Years later, she's rebuilding her life when she crosses paths with Casimir Toussaint-a quiet, dangerous boss who walks like sin and talks like a secret. What starts as harmless flirtation spirals into something deep, addictive... and deadly.

But Casimir is hiding more than just the truth.
He's the one who called the hit.
The same hit that nearly took Naima's mother out.

When word gets back to her locked-up brother, all hell breaks loose. Family loyalty, buried pasts, and forbidden love collide in a storm of betrayal, blood, and obsession.

She fell for the man who broke her family...
Now what's left of her heart might not survive him.
