Book Description
How can the one man you’ve loved for many years and only fallen deeper for, over a short period of time, be engaged to somebody else? Indira Porter is shocked to find out that Bakari has been engaged for a year. And to be told by the very woman he proposed to, is even more devastating for her. Now that the truth is finally brought to the light, Indira wants absolutely nothing to do with him. But wants and needs are two very different things. And with the way Mr. Marshall has quickly learned to make love to all parts of her body, staying away from him is about to be the biggest challenge of her life. Especially when she knows that despite him keeping such a big secret from her, he’s the only man she still truly wants. However, when Javon makes a bold statement that solidifies his love and commitment to her, Indira starts to realize that staying well away from Bakari Marshall is the only option to choose. Bakari Marshall never would have imagined being in his current predicament. With his fiancée back in town and the woman he loves trying to stay far away from him, Bakari finds himself juggling two women. One woman who he’s only with for the sake of his parents and the other woman who he refuses to be without. For the first time ever, Bakari’s love life begins to spiral out of control, but not only does his love life spiral, his tight bond with his sister, Tokyo, spirals uncontrollably once he learns who she’s been messing with, an old enemy who Bakari despises with all his heart and soul. When he gives Tokyo an ultimatum to choose the right side, her decision pushes them to a point that they’ve never been before. With secrets still lurking deep in the shadows, lines are about to be crossed, and lives will never ever be the same. Battles are about to be lost, but who is strong enough to win the war?

Book Description
They’ve secretly been in love with each other from their very first encounter but convinced themselves that they mean nothing to one another. Until one unexpected night, four days before her wedding to another man, changes everything... Indira Porter has always been a survivor. After a tragic event sets her whole life in a completely new direction, the only person she knows she can trust is herself - and Javon, her boyfriend. The pair are in love or... so it seems. In her mind, their love is real and secure enough to withstand the hardships of life. With their wedding just days away, Indira convinces herself that marrying Javon is the best thing to do despite his imperfections. However, the big lesson Indira is about to learn, is the difference between a boy who exploits her and a man who truly cherishes her. Bakari Marshall: a man that many love and many love to hate. His attractive looks, irresistible smile and intelligence doesn’t take away from the ruthless, dominant individual he is. Being the only son of his parents, meant that Bakari had to step up and be the protector of his entire family: his mother, father and two crazy ass sisters who he would die for in a heartbeat. Grinding his way to the top meant that he could become the respected, feared and envied man he is today. Falling in love was never part of his game plan and if he did fall in love, he certainly didn’t expect it to be with a beauty such as Indira. Someone that he believed was just a childhood acquaintance and someone who didn’t care for his existence. Indira’s been acquainted to the quiet, humble and no-nonsense side of Mr. Marshall before, but she’s about to become well acquainted with the private, unusual side of him. The side that takes her to indescribable euphoria. The romance between Bakari and Indira consumes them both, becoming intense and too passionate for either party to resist. Despite all the odds saying they can’t be together, Bakari makes it clear to Indira that she alone is who he wants. And the word ‘no’ just happens to not be in his vocabulary. Can Indira allow herself to be with the one man that she’s convinced herself for so long is just a product of her past? Or will her loyalty to her so-called fiancé stop her from beginning a new chapter with an infamous yet charming hood king? With secrets lurking in every corner... will Indira be able to trust herself or even anyone at all? In My Hood King Gave Me A Love Like No Other... love will certainly endure but who is strong enough to win the war?

Book Description
Andra wakes up from a cryogenic sleep 1,000 years later than she was supposed to, forcing her to team up with an exiled prince to navigate an unfamiliar planet in this smart, thrilling sci-fi adventure, perfect for fans of Renegades and Aurora Rising. When Andra wakes up, she's drowning. Not only that, but she's in a hot, dirty cave, it's the year 3102, and everyone keeps calling her Goddess. When Andra went into a cryonic sleep for a trip across the galaxy, she expected to wake up in a hundred years, not a thousand. Worst of all, the rest of the colonists--including her family and friends--are dead. They died centuries ago, and for some reason, their descendants think Andra's a deity. She knows she's nothing special, but she'll play along if it means she can figure out why she was left in stasis and how to get back to Earth. Zhade, the exiled bastard prince of Eerensed, has other plans. Four years ago, the sleeping Goddess's glass coffin disappeared from the palace, and Zhade devoted himself to finding it. Now he's hoping the Goddess will be the key to taking his rightful place on the throne--if he can get her to play her part, that is. Because if his people realize she doesn't actually have the power to save their dying planet, they'll kill her. With a vicious monarch on the throne and a city tearing apart at the seams, Zhade and Andra might never be able to unlock the mystery of her fate, let alone find a way to unseat the king, especially since Zhade hasn't exactly been forthcoming with Andra. And a thousand years from home, is there any way of knowing that Earth is better than the planet she's woken to?
