Mine: A Dangerous Claim
Not yet published
Expected 24 Apr 26One bad date. One dangerous stranger. One night that was never supposed to matter.
Nia Carter is new to Los Angeles—and determined to prove she belongs. As the newly appointed CEO of a powerful tech company, she can’t afford distractions… or scandals.
But when her first date in the city humiliates her in the most unforgivable way, a stranger steps in.
Jian Liang is everything Nia should avoid—older, ruthless, and impossible to ignore.
The wealthy owner of one of LA’s most exclusive restaurant-and-hotel sanctuaries, he’s known for his intelligence, his power… and the rumors no one dares say out loud.
What starts as a one-night escape turns into something neither of them expected.
Because Jian doesn’t do casual.
And once he gets his hands on Nia, he doesn’t want one night—he wants all of her.
But desire has a cost.
As whispers spread and danger closes in, Nia must decide if she’s willing to risk everything she worked for… for the kind of man who would destroy the world to keep her safe.
He claimed her first.
But in the end—she will claim him too.
A Dangerous Claim is a steamy, possessive age-gap romance featuring a powerful Chinese hero, a confident plus-size Black heroine, forced proximity, obsession, luxury, and high-stakes devotion.

I write BWWM romance across four lanes: dark mafia, contemporary, paranormal, and erotic short stories—all built on obsession, power, and the kind of love that leaves bruises on your pride (in the best way).
My stories live where leverage matters. Where desire is a decision. Where the man doesn’t chase—he claims. And the woman isn’t a prize—she’s the one who can burn the whole operation down if she’s pushed wrong.
My debut novel, Dark Vows, released May 1, 2025, and it set the tone for what I do: high heat, hard choices, ruthless devotion, and heroines who don’t fold just because a powerful man wants them. Whether I’m writing mafia wars and bloodline politics, a contemporary romance that hits like a confession, a paranormal world with teeth, or a fast, filthy short meant to be read in one breath—my focus stays the same:
competent Black women, dangerous men, clear consent, and HEAs that are earned.
If you like romance with edge, intensity, and consequences—welcome.
If you want sweet, soft, and polite… you’re probably in the wrong place.
Start with Dark Vows. Then pick your poison.
