My new series Thugs N Roses is now live with Book 1, A Thug's Promise.
For this series, the healing and growth of family and friendship is shown over a period of time as the Daymonds and James twins experience loss and conflict together, while individually fighting for a love of their own.
I really fulljoyed writing Bolen and Kassia's love story and I hope you will love reading it just as much. You can purchase for $2.99 USD on Amazon or download under your Kindle Unlimited subscription. Here's the blurb:
“The rose and the thorn, and sorrow and gladness are linked together.” – Saadi
Bolen Daymond
I owe this quiet life with my dog and music to my big brother, Melo. So when he wants to borrow my jazz club for a strip show, I have no choice but to comply.
I refuse to fraternize with his peacocking guest of honor, but then I meet his sister, Kassia James.
A sinful urge awakens in me the moment I discover the scars she hides behind dark sunglasses.
Melo promised me anything in return for one night to defile my club. Now I need it to make one of my own.
To her.
Kassia James
The only love of my life is my twin brother, Kameron.
Even though our nomadic lifestyle has cost me a piece of my soul, I could never be separated from him.
I’ve ridden his celebrity wave all the way to Miami’s Kama Island, only to crash at the feet of Bolen Daymond.
He wants every part of me—especially the part that’s damaged. His promise will help me finally move on from the pain of the past.
But nothing could terrify me more.
A Thug’s Promise is Book 1 of the Thugs N Roses Series. It is a steamy, strangers to lovers, insta-love romance. It contains urban adult language and mentions facial disfigurement.




Loved this book! Quick and easy read. The twins had an interesting story. The epilogues were so cute, and Barkley of course!
