Unlucky you
When you give your heart to someone, the last thing you expect is to have it ripped out of your chest. One night and one bad decision create a lifetime of regrets when Grand loses the one woman he was willing to risk it all for.
Losing his freedom is nothing in comparison to the devastation he feels knowing that his son will never get to know the woman who loved him more than she loved herself.
Saniya Montgomery learned at an early age what it means to be loved, but instead of setting the bar high, she chases the thrill of those who aren’t worthy.
Grand Sinclair is just another thrill on the long list of bad decisions. He warns Saniya to stay away but she’s stubborn and determined. The minute his walls come down, Saniya realizes that the tortured fighter with eyes that crush your soul is nothing she expects but everything she wants.
Beautiful Noise
Adversaries become friends and friends become lovers.
Kori Griffin has always lived her life according to expectations thrust on her by others, until she gets fed up and decides to play the game by her own rules. She quickly discovers, however, that being the architect of your own destiny is easier said than done.
While doing the necessary to ensure she is able to provide for herself, she’s thrust into the path of the most unlikely person, Ezren Shaw—the superstar, lover boy crooner known as Eccentric to his adoring fans.
Though drawn to her physically, Ezren is disinterested in anything else Kori has to offer. To him, women are simply muses to fuel his creativity. Quickly and quietly, however, Kori works her way under Ezren’s skin, much to his dismay, and he is forced to come to terms with what exactly that means for his life going forward.
MY inspiration
"I'm inspired by the ability to craft realistic stories of
love and life.
These stories represent people that feel so real
you would swear to passing by my characters on the street or sitting next to them in restaurants.
What I'm most inspired by, the thing that truly makes my heart sing is that I get to bring to life the
beauty of us
by crafting heart warming stories in all
shades of brown."
