Armani King is a successful and seemingly untouchable woman in the political playground of Washington, D.C. She runs a thriving charity organization, her twins are preparing for college, and the icing on the cake is her marriage to famed Congressman Nathan King.
But behind the polished façade, her marriage is falling apart.
Everything shifts when Nathan launches his reelection campaign and hires Minah Savoy, his new PR manager.
Minah is sharp-witted, ambitious, and fearless-a young queer strategist who is exactly what Nathan needs for a successful run... and exactly what Armani never knew she needed for herself.
From late-night conversations behind closed doors to whispered declarations in the sanctity of Minah's bed, to the full-blown public scandal that threatens to unravel everything, their journey forces them to confront the truth, their identity, and their courage.
A Scandal With the Press is the story of two Black women fighting for joy in a world that thrives on tearing them apart, and learning that loving openly might be the bravest act of all.

Saving Grace
In Northvale, Vermont, appearances are everything-and silence is safer than truth. Riley swore she'd never go back. After Grace ghosted her the week she left, after the countless moments under the train bridge where Riley told her best friend, Grace, that she loved her, and Grace said nothing. She moved weeks later and never heard from Grace again. Northvale became a place Riley only carried in memory-a place that hurt. Years later, Riley is building a life far from it all in Chicago. But when something deep and unnamed pulls her back, she finds herself standing once again in the town that made her feel small. And standing face-to-face with Grace Whitmore's parents-who, with haunting familiarity, invite her to stay in Grace's house. The place where she practically grew up. Grace has spent the last seven years trying to forget. Forget how she froze. Forget how she let Riley leave. Forget who she really was before the expectations of her family, her church, and her town hardened into something unrecognizable. Riley's return threatens all of it. As the two women are forced to navigate a shared home, buried feelings resurface-and so do the forces that drove them apart. In a town that still watches their every move, Riley and Grace must decide what's more dangerous: pretending to be something they're not, or choosing each other and facing the consequences. ⸻ ⚠️THIS BOOK IS STILL IN THE MAKING AND MANY EDITS ARE TO COME⚠️Complete
