Tell Me You Love Me (Tell Me Series Book 2) by Tina Martin

I fell…now she’s mine.

I’ve never known love like this. It’s potent. Life-changing. It changed mine and now I can’t live without her.

The problem is, I don’t necessarily get along with her family – not because I don’t like them. It’s the other way around. She brushes it off, but I’m against anything and anyone who threatens my relationship. My marriage. My happiness. My obsession.

So, I pour love into her. I overwhelm her. I want her to understand that we’re us for life. That’s why I need constant reassurance that she loves me.

Tell Me You Love Me is book 2 of the Tell Me Series. Book one, Tell Me: The Prelude is the introduction. You must read that book before reading book 2.

Panther (The Next Generation Book 1) by Iris Bolling

Bound by duty, led by love….

Brooks, Thompson, Johnson, and Harrison, four of the most common names in the United States. Yet, these young men, at the beginning of their bridge to manhood, are anything but ordinary. They are also the cream of the crop of men who make up the Next Generation Series. And so, it begins… 

The journey into manhood for four friends, James, Elliott, Calvin, and JC is not what one would expect. As sons of the leaders of the United States, their lives are under a microscope, surrounded by secret service. When they decide to take a journey around the world, the experience alters their lives in ways none of them expected. For James Avery Brooks Jr., he discovers a persona that leads to his code name PANTHER.

James has come to a crossroads. He is about to graduate from college and enter law school and still contemplating his career. Should he step into his father’s shoes and choose politics, or find his own passion? James would probably go the safest route. However, Panther would take the path of protecting people by any means necessary.

Princess ZsaZsa Ashro was brought to the United States for safety after she was kidnapped in her country of Emure. Yet, her love for the people of Emure has not diminished. On the contrary, her desire to improve the lives of women in her country is paramount in her mind.

The moment their eyes meet, James knows ZsaZsa is the woman for him. He was captivated by her exotic beauty, but it is her mind and dedication to her country and its people that had him captured. Whatever he must endure to have her as his own, he was willing to do, even if it meant challenging a king for her hand in marriage.

It all comes down to country, family and love.

Bare Fangs by Nicole Whitfield

Listen, whether you’re a lifetime reader or new to the game, you know this part gets tricky. So, in an effort to preserve the author’s mental health, she tapped me in. I won’t presume you know my family, although they have a series floating out in the world, Ryan, Gabriel, and Bailey (the Fangs series). This ain’t about them, though. This is my story of how quickly life can shift. It’s a story about what discipline has taught me. Reach one, teach one.

Do I take it too far sometimes? F*ck no—sh*t, my bad. This girl gon’ fire me before I get started. Let me hurry up before she jumps in here trying to describe the tropes used or some sh*t. Anyway, this is a Christmas story, but not what you’d expect. It’s a Black ballerina Hallmark movie x Vampires, so you know, your basic story.

I’m not sure what your tolerance for f*ck sh*t is, but mine is working at a zero, so while I might seem harsh to some, I’m all about reaching back. If I don’t teach you, how will you learn? I promise it will be a lesson you’ll never forget.

Serenity (Miller Family Book 4) by Rae Anderson

As if I’d summoned him, I felt him near. Not physically, but mentally and emotionally, he was there. My phone, though on silent, lit up, alerting me of a call. A smile tugged the corner of my lips, informing me of the imminent joy fermenting inside my being.
This is ridiculous.
This is senseless.
This is dangerous.
This was real.
Forever, I’d go where my nervous system thrived. Ignoring my head, my heart led. Swiping across the phone’s screen, I answered, placing the call on speaker.
“Hi.”
The way my tone softened.
The way my spine straightened.
The way I became my favorite version of myself in his presence.
I noticed.

The youngest of the Miller family, Serenity is a woman with her “ish” together. Thriving spa? Check. Successful art gallery? Check. Beautiful romantic life? Eh. Not so much. The nuances of modern dating have made love a mockery in her world. Soft, safe, and vulnerable look more like guarded, fearful, and intolerant for Serenity. They don’t make the men like they used to.

Or do they?

Cappadonna by Jahquel J.

Alaia:
After my Yaya passed away, I didn’t have anyone that cared for me. I mean, not even a month after Yaya was in the ground, he sat me down in the living room and sold me to a thirty-year-old man. I was sixteen, and my big brother, the man that was supposed to protect me sold me off like cattle on a farm.
My entire life has been to please Zayne. I’m his fourth wife, and the youngest wife. Nobody has ever protected or cared for me. I was tossed the cards that life handed and had to make do with them. That is until Cappadonna Delgato and I cross paths-again.

Cappadonna:
All it took was for me to see her one time in that visitation room to know that I needed her. Alaia, her name literally means Joy and happiness, and I didn’t see anything of the sorts in her eyes when she stared into my eyes that day. As Allah would have it, our paths were meant to cross on the outside, and they did.
I’m a protector, a provider, and a man, and I don’t think Alaia has ever had that in her life. I don’t care what I have to do or who I have to see to make her mine. She went years without knowing what protection and true love felt like, and I’m stepping up to make sure she doesn’t go another day not knowing how I feel or how I’m coming behind her. If I say she’s mine, she’s mine, and I’ve never been afraid to shed blood to prove it.
