Saint And Sinners: The King Angel Child of New York

Tiana Laveen

Romance / Contemporary

Dr. Saint Aknaten’s very soul is screaming to return to the city of his origins — New York. After living many years with his wife and three children in Los Angeles, he has grown weary of the West Coast lifestyle. He returns to his roots, believing he and his family can have a fresh go of it and that good times will be promised to them from here on out. Little does Saint know his hunger for the concrete jungle is not steeped in mere nostalgia and home sickness – no, there is a much larger picture at play and the artists painting the landscape are ones he simply cannot say no to. He is thrust into an assignment, one that causes him serious pause, but in typical Saint fashion, he realizes he MUST step up to the plate. In so doing, he uncloaks the city’s dirty, hidden secrets — underground workings of Good and Evil — and unbeknownst to him, he is seated in the center of it. Worst of all, the enemy knows more about Saint than Saint at times knows of himself. All the while his family is going through tremendous changes and challenges that seem to have no end in sight. His children are maturing in age and their gifts, sometimes receiving painful life lessons. Xenia tries to keep her head above water at the side of her soulmate, husband, lover, father of her children, and Angel Child. This time, however, being by his side is simply not enough. The challenges roll in harder and more brutally, forcing Saint’s Queen to step in front of her man and take control of a situation that threatens their marriage…and even the world. Saint has received a heaping helping of tough love from New York but realizes it is better to have loved and lost than to have never had the Big Apple kiss him at all. When is all said and done, who will wear the golden crown? Who will remain standing and who will be six feet under? And most importantly, will his Queen be there in the end to give him the love that he needs? Jump into the fifth installment of the “Saint” series to find out!

Smoke and Mirrors

Smoke and Mirrors

Tiana Laveen

Romance / Contemporary

Brent ‘Smoke’ Patterson grew up in the heart of America, but nothing in his life resembled the nostalgic home-town memories of waving patriotic flags and home-made apple pie cooling off in the breeze along a window sill. After surviving a series of traumatic events in his childhood, he was thrust into the streets at an early age to learn the underground, secret society code of the city of L.A. He soon found himself steeped in metropolitan ethics and baptized in ‘The Life.’ While his peers spent their youth in college earning their bachelor degrees, Smoke earned his education from the School of Hard Knocks and majored in Pimpology. He became one of the most underestimated, respected, dominant and esteemed pimps in all of California. But one day, a woman enters his life at a most pivotal time and changes his seedy little world forever… Her name is Paris Raven, and unlike the women he dominated from sun up to sun down, she will not be tamed, bossed around, subjugated or intimidated by the likes of Smoke Patterson. He’s met his match, yet, rather than recoil from such a troublesome soul, he develops a romantic obsession, to the point that his objective becomes crystal clear: He wants this woman, and he is going to get her. There is only one problem… Paris is a notorious Madam whose feminine, classy appearance leaves men panting, but should they push the wrong button, get her dander up, they’d find themselves looking down the barrel of her diamond-studded gun. When the two get together, torrential, confrontational sparks fly, but that is simply a show to disguise their strong, mutual attraction for one another. Smoke falls in love. Paris can’t resist doing the same… But oh what twists they wave when the two creatures of the night ignite a litany of jealousy, revenge, violence, blackmail, and even murder. Come along and take a dark romance flight, first class seating of course, with Smoke and Paris. Fasten your seat-belts for turbulent conditions wait up ahead in the form of blinding smoke haze and fractured mirrors. When everything comes to a screeching halt, will their love remain intact, strong and impenetrable? Turn these smoking hot pages to find out… ~***~ PLEASE NOTE: This book is adult in nature. It deals with heavy topics such as illegal prostitution/ sex sales, emotional neglect and other situations that the reader may find objectionable. There is an abundance of profanity, profuse violence with no aspect spared. Please also be forewarned, that though the sexual relationship of the hero and heroine does not start immediately in this book, when it does begin, it is continuous, exceptionally graphic, and not for those that wish to avoid such details. The author does not change the rhetoric, tone or language commonly used by people in this profession. It would do the story a disservice and whitewash the authenticity. That aside, however, this is still a love story. The main focus is placed on the hero and heroine’s relationship. For categorization purposes, this would be classified as an erotic, interracial, urban/dark romance. If the topics delved upon are not something you would wish to explore at this time, it would be advantageous on your part to not read this particular novel. Please proceed with caution. Thank you.
