9 parts Ongoing MatureAeryss Nylani Creedmore was just a girl from Uptown NOLA-doing hair in her mama's kitchen, raising her baby siblings, and trying to stay clear of street drama. But one bad day, one slip of the tongue while on her cycle, and she disrespects the two most feared mafia queens alive: Kehlani Parrish and Kwnway from East London. Now, Aeryss is being watched, followed, and tested in ways she never expected. With hands that slay hair and a mouth slick enough to spark war, she's pulled into a world of diamonds, death, and desire. And when you catch the attention of royalty from the underworld... you either rise or get buried.
Blood in My Braids is a gritty, seductive urban-mafia romance full of attitude, NOLA flavor, and powerful women who don't.
