Call-to-action sample:
“Explore romance books where Black women find the love they deserve.

Interracial romance novel cover with Black heroine and diverse hero

Romance book featuring a passionate Black couple

To note:

I write romance with heart and heat, love stories where intimacy isn’t just physical, it’s transformational.


My characters fall hard, love deeply, and explore desire in ways that help them grow.
Think of it as romance with purpose and heat: when I write open-door scenes, they’re not just there to raise the temperature, they reveal who the characters really are.

​

Not every story needs to bare it all. Around here, we also celebrate fade-to-black and closed-door romances, where the passion is felt through emotion, tension, and heart-pounding connection. If it doesn't have a chili on it...those lovely reads are either FTB or closed door romances.

​

Because whether it’s a whisper or a wildfire, love deserves to be told honestly.

 

“Smut” just means descriptive, heartfelt passion and “spice” is how hot it gets on the way to their happily ever after.
