Playing Hearts

Playing Hearts is an emotional urban fiction romance that follows Nova Joi Davis, a once hopeless romantic whose heart is shattered after her high school sweetheart betrays her. Determined never to be broken again, Nova transforms into a confident, independent woman who turns the tables on commitment-phobic men, earning the nickname "the queen of heartbreak."

As four very different men compete for her attention, Nova discovers that true power isn't found in revenge but in healing, setting boundaries, and knowing her worth. Along the way, she uncovers a life-changing family secret, builds a nationally recognized leadership organization, reconciles with her past, and inspires countless women to turn their pain into purpose.

Filled with humor, romance, shocking twists, personal growth, and unforgettable characters, Playing Hearts is a story about second chances, self-love, forgiveness, and finding a partner who supports your purpose instead of competing with it. It reminds readers that the greatest victory isn't making someone regret losing you-it's building a life so fulfilling that their regret no longer defines your story.
