AN URBAN NOVEL | Champion and Chanala- Mirrors could be deceiving. Are there people out there that look in the mirror and are truly happy with the person that they see in the reflective surface? 

Twenty-seven- year-old Champion Ortez McCoy wasn't too sure of that statement. Years of pointless relationships and friendships allowed for him to share mediocre connections with people that he thought were genuine and authentic, only for him to later uncover that the surface of someone was nothing but a layer that needed to be stripped away to reveal the true individual. 


When he comes across twenty-four- year-old Chanala Knights, a woman who is more like him in personality than he expected, he begins to question the value and practicality of life. The other side of the mirror, Past the Mirror, was the meat and flesh of the person that anyone would like to know. 


  What happens when looking past the mirror causes more problems than one would expect?

AMBY AWARDS TOP PICK 2024❤️ I can only see half of his face, reflected in the mirror at the front of the bus, and part of that is obscured by the peak of the black company-branded cap he's wearing. But I can see enough to glean that there's a strong jaw covered in scruff. A wide mouth that looks like it would be prone to smiling. He's wearing glasses with trendy light tortoiseshell frames, and I can't quite discern the colour of his eyes from my position . . . but some weird intuition is telling me that they'll be hazel, and I wonder when my brain is going to catch up. Because I *know* him, don't I? I'm almost certain of it. And he seems to know me, too. Or at least he thinks he does. The way he's glancing over at me lets me in on that. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mirren Shepherd has *many* pet peeves. Top of the list, though? Staycations . . . And surprises. So when her girls' trip abroad is cancelled at the last minute and she finds herself roped into a minibus tour of Northern Scotland instead, she isn't remotely happy. And when she finds out who their guide is . . . It's yet another reason for her to dislike surprises. Because Owen Sullivan wasn't so much the one who got away . . . He was the one who just didn't return. And, after she finally got over him, she never expected to see him again. Mirren would prefer to leave the past in the past, but Owen is determined to try to right his wrongs. Can she trust him? Can she trust *herself*? Maybe, just maybe, this surprise - and staycation - won't be as bad as Mirren thinks . . . ~~~~~~~~~~~~

22-year-old Nimue Nyli Dowell was fresh out of college with little money to her name and left with a boatload of backed-up bills from her oldest sister Flora, who was twenty-nine going on twelve. Both ladies lost their parents over nine years ago, in a robbery at their local corner store gone wrong. After a sticky situation that was out of Nimue's control, neither sister was on speaking terms since Flora left Nimue to pick up the slack. Her college life was already a mess and here she was piling more things onto her already full plate. Kato is a 24-year-old legend known all throughout Virginia and the rest of the east coast with a cocky demeanor and alluring gray eyes to seal to deal with and capture his prey. Women had no problem falling at his feet just to get a taste or bragging rights to say that they were in his presence, but after a while, sex and thirsty women became irrelevant to him. He was an only child and the saddest thing about that was knowing that his own parents didn't want him. At the tender age of 3, they gave him up for adoption where he bounced from different foster cares, fighting any and everybody for his respect and teaching himself the ropes of the dope game. During his 14th birthday, his life took a quick turn, but the old him was fighting with the new version that was trying to adapt to being in the presence of someone who actually wanted better for him. He was slowly but surely trying to turn his life around and retire from his gangsta lifestyle, but something was holding him back. ©️ _jasthewriter aka xjasrenae 2020-2022

I put my forehead on his, which was hard considering our hight difference. I cupped his cheeks and said, "have you hurt me yet?" "Kassie, I can-" "Shush. I don't care if your a psychopath or a murderer or a vampire because when I look into your eyes, I see fear and hurt. Something made you the way you are and that created this. This." I said poking his chest than mine. "Would we have met?" He smiled, "I guess not." Kassie Leah Rose is mute. She is a child at heart and a wise old man at the same time. Never underestimate her.
