MERCHANDISE || ZATIMA
In a city that never slows down, love doesn't come easy-it comes with a price. Crystal thought moving to New York would be her fresh start. With nothing but her father's inheritance, raw talent, and a dream of becoming a designer, she's determined to build a life that's hers. No distractions. No detours. Just success. But New York has a way of rewriting plans. Devale is the life of every party-the man everyone knows, the one everyone watches. In Brooklyn, they call him *The Party King*. Nights blur into mornings, women come and go, and commitment? That's never been his style. He's built his name off the nightlife... and he has no intention of slowing down. Until Crystal. She's different-focused, unbothered, and completely unimpressed by his reputation. What starts as curiosity quickly turns into something neither of them expected. But when two worlds collide-one chasing dreams, the other running from reality-something is bound to break. Because Crystal isn't built for his chaos... and Devale isn't ready for her kind of love. In a city full of lights, temptation, and secrets, they'll have to decide- is this just another moment... or something worth risking everything for?
Sincerely, Summer Taylor ✍🏽
One decision changed everything, and the silence that followed rewrote them both. Still, some stories are destined to return to the person they were always meant for.
Unfinished Love.
Our love ended years ago... or did it?
RECKLESS
Her family sees embarrassment. Her lawyer sees entitlement. The public sees a headline. But underneath all of that, she is somebody who keeps making reckless choices because she is starving for love, attention, freedom, and somebody to choose her over the family name.
Still Us
Fatima Wilson has built a life rooted in responsibility, not passion. A dedicated Nurse Practitioner, a devoted mother to her three-year-old daughter Faith, and a woman trying to hold together a relationship that's been emotionally dead for years-she's doing what she believes is right, not what feels right. Zachary Taylor has returned home a successful business owner, disciplined, focused, and carrying the weight of a relationship that no longer fits the man he's become. His life looks solid on paper-but behind closed doors, it's draining him. When a chance encounter at a mall brings them face-to-face for the first time in fifteen years, everything shifts. Because before the broken relationships... Before the responsibilities... Before the distance... There was them. Best friends. First loves that never got the chance to be. And now? Old feelings don't just come back... They linger. But timing is complicated. Healing is messy. And love the second time around? It demands honesty. STILL US is a slow-burn, emotionally layered story about rediscovering love, choosing yourself, and realizing that sometimes... the right person was never lost-just delayed.
ᴜɴᴅᴇʀ ᴏᴜʀ ᴄᴏɴᴛʀᴏʟ.
We thought forcing ourselves to forget and a few state lines could make us regret what we were. We lied, called it life and just let it run its course. But death doesn't care about boundaries and the heart will always yearn for exactly what it wants.
Love & Art
A love worth building.
Before We Called It Love
Zachary Taylor and Fatima Wilson were never supposed to be anything more than friends. Seven and a half years later, nobody believes them. Not when he calls her first after every game. Not when she shows up to every practice like she belongs there. Not when his daughter cries for her before anyone else. And definitely not when they argue like a married couple who forgot to sign the papers. They swear it's nothing. Just friendship. Just loyalty. Just life. But life has a funny way of looking like love when you stop paying attention. Especially when you've already been living like a family without realizing it. And when outside relationships, old history, and unexpected truths start to blur the lines... One question becomes impossible to ignore: If they're just friends... why does it feel like they've already been married this whole time?
Unlawful Desires
Who falls for the professor-student cliche?? Nonchalant looks draw you in... The skeleton isn't the only anatomy, Professor Taylor has learned about...
The Line We Crossed
For seven years, Officers Fatima Wilson and Zachary Taylor have been inseparable. Partners on the force and best friends off the clock. They've weathered each other's heartbreaks, shared countless late-night stakeouts, and built a bond stronger than any backup call. But when Zac suddenly becomes overprotective, Fatima is left confused and frustrated by his shift in behavior. After Zac is injured in the line of duty, Fatima is unexpectedly pulled into a high-stakes undercover operation. With her life on the line, Zac refuses to sit idly by, throwing himself into her case despite orders to rest. His constant interference drives Fatima crazy until she realizes that the line between friendship and something deeper has been blurring for a long time. As their undercover personas pull them deeper into a dangerous world, the feelings they've buried for years start to surface. Now, with their lives and hearts on the line, Fatima and Zac must face the truth: the greatest risk they've ever taken might be falling for each other.
