Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cataleya Rojas is the glue that holds her family together. Their needs often come before hers, and she never has a problem with that. When her strung out mother unexpectedly overdoses, she knows it’s time for a change. That change falls in her lap when her father, whom she hasn’t seen much of over the years, offers her the opportunity to come stay with him. Little does she know, his open invitation comes with a hidden agenda. She always wants a taste of the lavish lifestyle, and she’s going to get just that when she goes to stay with him. Living the lavish lifestyle doesn’t come for free, though. It comes with murder, drugs, guns, and money. Things aren’t as they seem, and by the time she figures this out, she will be in way over her head. There is an upside to the sudden move, and that upside is Cezar. Cezar is the leader of his mob, and they only have one agenda—taking out the Colombian Cartel. Cataleya’s father just so happens to be the boss of this cartel, and he’s never been tricked out of his spot. He’s older than most of the new cats in the game, and with old age, comes experience. Yet, that doesn’t stop Cezar from setting his sights on his empire. While he’s fighting to go after what he wants, he finds himself falling for Cataleya. There’s one thing he doesn’t know about her... She’s the heart of the cartel. Will finding out that the girl he wants is in the middle of the cartel he’s after change his mind about her? Will Cataleya be able to keep her head above water as she’s thrown into trials and tribulations? Is this love meant to be, or is seeking after the heart of the cartel just impossible? Which side will come out on top? When truths come out, hearts will be crushed, sides will have to be chosen, and someone may end up having to pay for it all... in blood.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cartel has always been about power, money, respect, and family. When your family demands respect, earns money, and gains access to power, things are bound to get out of control. This is one finale that only gets crazier by the page. When Cataleya first walked into the world of the cartel, she was blinded by the lavish things around her. Things quickly changed once everything started to be revealed for what it really was, one by one. Before Cataleya could even fully grasp what was going on, she found herself behind the gun that was pointed toward her brother and lover. The choice that was given to her was to pick one to kill. If she didn't, they both would be killed. Hearts are racing, adrenaline is pumping, and the time is ticking. Her desire for love and craving for change has led her down a path that she can't turn back on. Will Cataleya be able to make a decision on her own, or will her heart have to decide for her? Will her actions provoke the cartel and cause things to get murderous, or will they carry her farther than she ever expected to go? She may be the heart of the cartel, but is that enough to stop her from fighting for her hood love?

Book excerpt: From birth, the Savage brothers were taught by their father, Deuce, that life is like a sandwich; any way you flip it, the bread comes first. They were taught to get money, not fall in love, so they left a wreckage of broken hearts on their road to getting money. Yet, now, as mature men, they realize that you're not rich until you have something that money can't buy. And money certainly cannot buy the women that have stolen these brothers' hard and stubborn hearts. Taye "City" Savage and Akira White's love story started in the projects. Ten years ago, they met when Akira was only a young girl and City was a grown man getting his hustle started. City and Akira's bond was strong, and their fate was inevitable, so they thought. However, before their bound could be sealed, life happened. They were torn apart by unimaginable circumstances, and they never saw one another again until a decade later. Yet, by that time, both City and Akira were involved, but they weren't so loyal to Nova and Davion that they could ignore the passion in their hearts that they still harbored for one another. The only thing that ever mattered to Keandre "Money" Savage was the hustle. He had never fallen in love, not even with his girlfriend of five years, Zoe Moore. Money and Zoe had the typical hood love that involved lots of fussing, fighting, and other women. Yet, Zoe was the only one in the relationship that was in love. Money only kept her by his side because she was the last woman standing. Along the way, he had ruined Zoe with every woman that he cheated on her with, and every lie he told. Now, Money is finally ready to shed his immature ways and settle down. Yet, Zoe finds herself in a desperate state of mind when she realizes that she is not the woman that Money has chosen to settle down with. Shamar Savages' only love has been his love for art. When his brothers financed his baby, Savage Ink, his only focus was his tattoo shop. Yet, he soon realizes that despite not even wanting it, he was falling for his friend and frequent dip, Taraji Green. However, Taraji had the same mindset as Shamar. Her only focus was becoming the baddest hair stylist in Chicago; not love. The last thing she wanted was a committed relationship with anyone, not even one of the infamous Savage brothers. Sometimes, the last thing a person wants to do is fall in love, but love sucks them in any way. That is exactly what happens with these Savage brothers and the women that adore them. As life always has it, love ain't that easy to obtain, especially when loving a man that was raised by the streets and whose first love is the hustle. In yet another urban tale by Jessica N. Watkins, death, sex, and chaos leads to unforeseen tragedy and unexpected love.
