Book Description
Two months have passed since Urban left Normani, not only dealing with a damaged body, but a broken heart as well. Promising to never fall foolishly in love with another man again, Normani starts over with the very charming Bull, who is able to give her everything she's desired in a man without the mental instability that came with Ward or the broken promises a relationship with Urban guarantees. Normani is convinced that her failed relationships have paved the way for her to find better, when Urban reappears in her life after going ghost during her recovery. His words are as sweet as she remembers, and the apologies she swore she would reject feel fresh after months of healing. However, Urban still comes with the same baggage he did before, forcing Normani to decide if she's willing to try again in the name of true love or accept the possibilities that come with Bull and the idea of a new love. A snake lies in wait, stalking Urban's legacy with the hopes of upending The Trust. The one person in the world who has always pledged his loyalty to the blood that binds him to the Mackenzie family has disavowed them of the opportunity to reign over the vast drug empire. While Urban knows the liabilities that come from jealousy, what he doesn’t expect is for Malone to turn on the same people who have stood beside him during his darkest hours. With the ability to foreshadow better than most, Urban evades the traps set by the FBI, although he doesn’t catch his brother’s deception until it’s too late. Malone had planned his coup perfectly, from the execution to aftermath. However, he fails to plan for the wild card that no one saw coming: Trish. With a target on her back, courtesy of the Veracruz Cartel, Trish is backed into a corner and forced to fight to live another day. With her sanity and livelihood on the line, she makes the perfect contender to go head-to-head against the cartel who wishes her death, making for an unforgettable battle for the throne. The stakes are higher than ever in the final installment of Adored by a New York Drug Lord, as a familiar enemy stakes out The Trust and threatens to not only upend Urban's legacy but take out as many bodies as possible. The question isn't which hustler will Normani give her heart to or if Trish will have the happiness she deserves, but if Urban can save his kingdom before the clock runs out.

Book Description
Peace no longer resides in Normani's existence, and as she stares down the barrel of Preaux’s gun, she has to wonder if her destiny isn't to be happy, but to pay for her wrongdoings with her life. When her meeting with fate is cancelled, Normani is forced to reevaluate the damage she has done to not only her family, but her grandparents as well. Revelations and family secrets have overrun the Pope family, destroying their already faulty bonds. Their loyalty has been tainted, and it is up to Normani to repair their trust, however such a feat seems impossible. Her grandparents’ marriage is holding on by a vow, Nicole struggles with learning how to love and let go, and Normani has her own issues to deal with regarding her budding relationship with Urban. What was the promise of one night has blossomed into a full blown affair, one that Normani navigates with optimism until the reality of their situation sets in. Urban has a family, a longtime fiancée and daughter to consider. These obstacles force Normani to guard her heart, and when a certain someone enters the picture with the promises of no drama, she has to decide if her feelings for Urban are strong enough, or will she end up being adored by someone else? As Normani works to mend her family, Urban discovers that his once tight knit unit is falling apart at the seams. With the Veracruz Cartel still seeking answers to the slaying of Gabriel Garza, Urban knows it is only a matter of time before his family is targeted for the cartel’s version of retributive justice. The eye-for-an-eye they have their sights set on would be Kelsey, who is not only dealing with growing pains, but discovering the world she lives in isn't black and white, but various shades of gray that come with the Mackenzie name. The arrangement he has with Shahily no longer holds the same appeal as it did before. Forced to maneuver around his present while spending time with his future, Urban feels as if he's struck a balance when Normani reminds him their relationship can't be at his convenience, that unlike Shahily, she has her entire life ahead of her. Time isn't on his side, and he has to risk the comfort of his current life for the reward of true love. The problem is that Shahily isn't letting go without a fight. With Ángel Garza out of the picture, Trish can finally let go of the pain and hurt monopolizing her life. At the very close of their relationship, a new one filled with promise is created when she meets Winston O’Neal, a wealthy lawyer with only eyes for her. He’s everything she deserves after being terrorized by Ángel, and it feels good to be in a relationship with someone who has no ties to the game, except there’s one handsome problem: Koi Mackenzie. Trish can’t deny her feelings for Koi, but she feels more like a project than a potential girlfriend. Koi has saved her from herself more times than she can count, and it feels more like he’s trying to save himself from past hurt. But when Camila Garza approaches Trish with a warning to the deadly events to come, Trish may have to put her trust in a Mackenzie once again.

Book Description
Normani Pope has always dreamed of the day she would be able to live a life out of an Urban Fiction novel. An endless bankroll, access to the latest designer clothes, and the envy of every chick on the block are all part of her fantasies when she meets Ward, an up and coming dope boy. When Ward stakes a claim to the beautiful Normani, she accepts without hesitation, a decision she makes without considering the consequences that comes with dating a dope boy. The lifestyle Ward provides is as lavish as Normani expects, but she soon pays the price for being a thug’s solace when she’s the victim of a botched murder-suicide. Unable to return home, Normani is sent to live with her estranged aunt in Brooklyn. It is there that Normani lays eyes on a shiny red Lamborghini with no idea that its owner was going to change her life for better and worse. Uriah “Urban” Mackenzie has always been held in a high esteem throughout the streets, and not because of his charismatic charm, deep chocolate eyes, and politician’s smile. Urban is the head of “The Trust,” a prestigious crime organization known for running guns, human trafficking, and funneling millions of dollars in cocaine throughout the East Coast. Urban leads The Trust with an iron fist, refusing to allow anyone to one up him lest they deal with his wrath. He has New York City in the palm of his hand, with everyone bending to his will, except a bold and brazen Normani. Love has never been on Urban’s radar—even with a longtime girlfriend on his arm—but Normani’s beautiful eyes and damaged smile pulls him in. Soon Urban finds that he's willing to risk the life and legacy he’s built to see if the grass is truly greener on the other side.

Reeling from the aftermath of her kidnapping, Kelsey is forced to confront the very demons that chased her out of New York City five years ago. The chip she’s carried on her shoulder has become uncontrollable, causing her to live in a constant state of trauma. If she wants to successfully run The Trust there is no room for weakness. Resilience becomes her preferred choice of drug as she slowly takes back her life, starting with her seat at the head of the table. As if her professional life wasn’t trying enough, Kelsey’s personal life takes a hit as she and Quill work to find a balance between her overnight success and his steady come up. However, an old flame reappearing places a strain on their relationship. Peace is on a mission to make Kelsey his, and he doesn’t care how many bodies have to drop for him to claim her. The attraction between the two has always been present. The question is, will Kelsey turn down temptation in the name of true love, or will she submit to Peace, who leaves a path of anything but in his wake? While some may have no idea what the future holds, Quill is very aware of how his story will end. Every facet of his life leads him down the same road of uncertainty that is death.

Book Description
Still battling the grief of losing her parents, Heart is one of the youngest kingpins running the streets and she uses her power to start a war with Spade. Just like her name, Heart only sees red as she tears through the streets knocking down Spade’s pawns like only a real queen would. However, with her soldiers dropping left and right, Heart is forced to take on an unlikely ally: her long lost cousin, Ace. Cunning and mysterious, Ace takes on a new identity and finds himself breaking bread with Spade, his father and enemy. The road to hell isn’t easy, but he soon discovers that in Spade’s world it’s called Headquarters, a large building in the middle of the hood holding the secrets to Spade’s organization. Forced to wear two faces, Ace teeters the blurred lines of being the faithful soldier and the scorned son. Bitter and angered by her sudden replacement, Diamond’s eyes are only set on revenge: revenge for the embarrassment of being tossed aside by Spade, revenge for being replaced with someone younger and prettier, and most importantly, revenge for her love being rejected by Spade. With a new alliance formed with King and Ace, Diamond may have the key to Spade’s undoing or possibly the last piece of her undoing. Once one of the most respected lieutenants in the hood, King has been exiled and not only has his pride been stolen from him, but a piece of him that can't be replaced. As King comes to term with this sudden life change, he wonders if his condition will ruin any chance he had of reuniting with Heart or will he be able to his queen rule the streets as her king? Once divided by separate goals, Heart, King, Diamond and Ace have now come together to right the wrongs caused by the king of the streets, Spade. Will they be able to overthrow Spade or will he defeat them again and this time have no mercy?

Book Description
“I need to make sure Yara’s really for me. She’s seen the good, had my back through the bad, and I need to know if she’ll stick around for the ugly.” Still reeling from Quade’s near-death experience, Yara handles being the girlfriend of a savage with kid gloves. She showers Quade with the affection he’s been missing while in exchange he gives her the loyalty she’s always craved. Fair exchange quickly becomes robbery when Quade demands more from Yara than she’s able to give, and sends her straight back to the dark times of her childhood. The monsters that haunted Yara’s childhood have nothing on Quade’s wild side, a side of him he’s always been able to suppress but never tame. When their relationship takes a devastating turn, Yara has to decide whether or not love will be enough to salvage a relationship that’s falling apart by the seams. Quade has always lived life recklessly, with his acceptance and encouragement of death a rare trait, but in the eye of the very thing he’s always welcomed with open arms, he finds a new reason to live for: Yara. Her beauty, kind heart, and smart mouth have given him a new reason to live, and only as he accepts it his life is put on the line. Yara helps nurse him back to health, which proves to be a high point in their relationship until they reach the ultimate low. Quade’s inner demons come out to play, demons that he hasn’t relived since he lost the first woman to ever love him unconditionally—his mother. With his actions speaking louder than his words, Quade has to fight one of the toughest battles of his life with an enemy equally as lethal as he is. If he loses, he stands to lose the very woman to make him breathe again. Known jokingly to everyone as an aspiring Griselda Blanco, Cash starts making serious money moves. She’s got a distributor in her pocket, her clientele is expanding, and the styling business she’s been dreaming of is nearly ready to launch. Cash goes from being a kept woman to keeping up with the Joneses, and for everything she has, only one thing is missing: a relationship with Savion Townsend. In order to keep their situationship thriving, Cash piles one lie on top of the other to the point where she doesn’t know what the truth is anymore. And once those money moves turn bloody, Cash finds out exactly how ruthless the game can be when she goes from being the one holding the gun to the one staring down the barrel of it. The second installment of When a Heartless Thug Holds Me Close weaves a story of being stuck on the wrong side of love. Will Quade be able to mend his relationship with Yara? Can Cash command the game and Savion’s heart?

Book Description
“I need to make sure Yara’s really for me. She’s seen the good, had my back through the bad, and I need to know if she’ll stick around for the ugly.” Still reeling from Quade’s near-death experience, Yara handles being the girlfriend of a savage with kid gloves. She showers Quade with the affection he’s been missing while in exchange he gives her the loyalty she’s always craved. Fair exchange quickly becomes robbery when Quade demands more from Yara than she’s able to give, and sends her straight back to the dark times of her childhood. The monsters that haunted Yara’s childhood have nothing on Quade’s wild side, a side of him he’s always been able to suppress but never tame. When their relationship takes a devastating turn, Yara has to decide whether or not love will be enough to salvage a relationship that’s falling apart by the seams. Quade has always lived life recklessly, with his acceptance and encouragement of death a rare trait, but in the eye of the very thing he’s always welcomed with open arms, he finds a new reason to live for: Yara. Her beauty, kind heart, and smart mouth have given him a new reason to live, and only as he accepts it his life is put on the line. Yara helps nurse him back to health, which proves to be a high point in their relationship until they reach the ultimate low. Quade’s inner demons come out to play, demons that he hasn’t relived since he lost the first woman to ever love him unconditionally—his mother. With his actions speaking louder than his words, Quade has to fight one of the toughest battles of his life with an enemy equally as lethal as he is. If he loses, he stands to lose the very woman to make him breathe again. Known jokingly to everyone as an aspiring Griselda Blanco, Cash starts making serious money moves. She’s got a distributor in her pocket, her clientele is expanding, and the styling business she’s been dreaming of is nearly ready to launch. Cash goes from being a kept woman to keeping up with the Joneses, and for everything she has, only one thing is missing: a relationship with Savion Townsend. In order to keep their situationship thriving, Cash piles one lie on top of the other to the point where she doesn’t know what the truth is anymore. And once those money moves turn bloody, Cash finds out exactly how ruthless the game can be when she goes from being the one holding the gun to the one staring down the barrel of it. The second installment of When a Heartless Thug Holds Me Close weaves a story of being stuck on the wrong side of love. Will Quade be able to mend his relationship with Yara? Can Cash command the game and Savion’s heart? And most importantly, when given the opportunity to start over with a man that offers everything Quade has without the baggage will Yara accept, or does her love for Quade run deeper than she imagined?

Book Description
Life has been anything but easy for twenty-year-old Nubia Monroe. After witnessing her parents’ execution at her tenth birthday party, Nubia hasn’t been the same. The lavish lifestyle that came with being the daughter of the notorious Apollo Monroe was snatched from under her feet, forcing her to become the foster child her evil aunt never wanted. After years of dealing with her uncle’s hand problem, Nubia goes from a plaything to a punching bag for her husband, Vincent. Believing that Vincent is the best thing to happen in her life since the death of her parents, Nubia suffers in silence until she meets Maine. A notorious hustler by day and ruthless hustler by night, Jermaine “Maine” Emerson is as savage as they come. Born a child soldier in Sierra Leone, Maine was given the opportunity for a new life in America working as a hitta for Sampson, a distributor for the Solares Cartel and an infamous gangsta known for his heartless antics. Maine’s first mission: kill Apollo Monroe’s family, including his daughter. With a heart made of steel, Maine slaughters her family relentlessly, but there is something about ten-year-old Nubia that gives fifteen-year-old Maine pause. He spares her life, and the two never cross paths again until Maine catches Nubia being beaten on the street by her husband. Although he has everything he could ask for—money, cars, and his pick of women—Maine is drawn to the broken Nubia and the mystery she brings. As he tries to repair her broken spirit, he has no idea that he's responsible for it. In the middle of Nubia and Maine's battle of the hearts, is Nubia’s best friend, Shahani. After losing the love of her life in a gunfight, the kept Shahani takes refuge on a pole, rebuilding her life one dance at a time. She meets the suave and charismatic Donovan, who takes her from dancing and introduces her to the world of pimping. While Donovan is focused on building his empire, Shahani has other dreams in mind, one of which is opening her own hair salon. She's content with building with Donovan until a chance encounter with Sampson leaves her sleeping with the enemy. Again.

Book Description
"After watching my mother be beaten in the name of love, I always dreamed of having my own perfect love story void of pain. One where my very own Prince Charming would sweep me off of my feet. And then I met Quade, who showed me that love should be everything but perfect.” Yara Samuels has experienced her fair share of hurt in life. Growing up in a home ridden with domestic violence, Yara was taught at a young age that if it isn’t painful, then it isn’t love. It takes watching her mother be beaten to death by her stepfather for young Yara to learn that love taps shouldn’t send you to the grave. All grown up, she searches for a man who knows how to love a woman with his heart and not his fists. After years of looking, Yara believes that she finds the embodiment of this philosophy in her boyfriend, Amir, until she discovers that while he may provide physical peace, the mental isn’t there. With her sense of self-worth challenged, Yara is content with loving Amir when Quade comes hurtling into her life. The youngest of the infamous Townsend Brothers, Quade isn’t your run-of-the-mill hustler. A walking oxymoron, Quade has a baby face with a heart bred cold courtesy of the streets. Quade has been given the gift of sticky fingers, a trap king philosophy, and a trigger finger that hasn’t missed a target yet. When his aim leads him straight into the path of Yara while in the midst of a hit, Quade's heart melts and he's drawn to the mysterious Yara, who for some reason unbeknownst to him, can't stand him. Never one to back down from a challenge, Quade pursues Yara with the same recklessness that he handles business, and it makes for the start of a memorable love affair. Beneath her expensive clothing and designer handbags, Yara's best friend, Cashmere, is a woman tired of being kept at the expense of her sanity. While putting on a brave face for the world, Cash hides her frustration with her boyfriend behind her Chanel sunglasses. There's nothing picture perfect about the couple, and with each of Vito’s antics worse than the last, Cash finds herself seeking a backup plan in the event that her days of being a hustler’s princess are cut short. When Cash is greeted with an opportunity to secure the bag, she jumps at it immediately and finds herself on the path to becoming the queenpin that the streets have been begging for. What's standing in her way? Savion Townsend. Cash has got it bad for one of the Townsend Brothers, but between forming her own empire and her complicated relationship with Vito, Cash has to decide if she's willing to risk it all in the name of love.
