A Thug's Obsession

​Ace is the undisputed king of Atlanta's Southside-iced-out, dangerous, and moving millions without a trace. He lives by a simple code: stack the paper, protect his empire, and never tie himself down. He's spent his whole life dodging cages and avoiding death, completely desensitized to the violence of the game. But all the money in the city can't shield him from the moment he locks eyes with Imani Carter.

​Imani is pure street royalty, a fiercely independent hustler running the city's top salon. She's gorgeous and completely off-limits. Her oldest brother, Imran, has been a ruthless kingpin since stepping into their late father's oversized shoes at eighteen, and his number-one rule is keeping his sister entirely insulated from the smoke.

​But when Ace wants something, he gets it.
​What starts as a dangerous, high-stakes romance quickly turns into an all-out obsession. When the secrets blow up, it triggers a chain reaction that shatters the city's heaviest family alliances and brings a vengeful, bloody ghost from the past straight to their doorstep.

​With a rival cartel circling the family and the block wired to explode, Ace has to drop the slick talk, lock and load his guns, and prove how far he's willing to go for the only woman to ever get under his skin. From the savage Bankhead trenches to the pure, dripping luxury of a ballroom, A Thug's Obsession is a high-octane street romance proving that once a real nigga sets his sights on a queen, the streets themselves can't stop the hunt.
