SEVEN DAYS IN SEATTLE
Let it Rain Series Book 1
(February 2024)
One week. No strings. No names. No feelings. What could go wrong?
Rain
This Seattle meeting will change my life…just not the way I expected.
Instead of focusing on my presentation, I’m dealing with a cheating boyfriend and sister who bailed on me. The only good thing to happen is when a stranger at a bar offers a pretty distraction: a one-night stand, no strings attached, no questions asked. A distraction from my mess of a life is exactly what I need….
But our one-night stand turns into a week-long affair. He only wanted sex, no feelings, no last names, no talk about business, nothing personal. And I was fine with that. Until I wasn’t.
Nik
I don’t have time for relationships. I have a company to run, a legacy to uphold, a reputation to protect. I only care about power and success. I don’t do dates and I don’t do tomorrows. I only do one-night stands with women who know the rules and don’t ask for more.
But then I met Rain at a bar. She’s beautiful, smart, and sassy. And suddenly, I want more. The more time we spend together, the more I want from her. Her name. Her story. Her dreams. And I was fine with that. Until I wasn’t.
Fate is about to punish us for staying anonymous…by throwing us into each other’s lives in the worst possible way.

30 DAYS IN BELFAST
(February 2023)
Just one distraction could lead to failure—several may spell ruin.
As the daughter of the wealthiest Black man in the country, Rose Ross struggles to make a name for herself as the COO of her father’s tech company. She’s even forced to let go of a promising relationship to focus on her career, but still cannot seem to escape her father’s legacy. Rose fears that if she remains at Rick Ross Enterprises, she will never rise above the vast shadow his name casts.
When her ailing friend reaches out to her for help, Rose doesn’t hesitate. She has just thirty days to curate the most important charity art exhibition in Europe and break into a field she is truly passionate about. However, just before she leaves for her flight to Belfast, her father informs her that she has only three weeks to decide whether she will succeed him as CEO.
With her concentration already split between one life-altering decision, Rose is stunned when she meets her friend’s handsome and overprotective brothers. Right away, she recognizes an undeniable, yet different, attraction to both.
Her mind in turmoil, Rose’s focus is now fractured among love and business. If she cannot make a decision—or if she makes the wrong one—she will lose everything she has worked for and, perhaps, more.
A standalone contemporary romance.
