Reading Order

  1. The Predatory Spouse — Book 1
    Malik Carter thought he found love. Nia found something else. What begins as attraction slowly becomes control — desire, betrayal, violence, and emotional dependence until the man he was begins to disappear.
  2. What We Carry — Book 2
    Freedom does not mean the past disappears. The emotional weight of toxic love follows the characters beyond the relationship itself.
  3. East of Home — Book 3
    Sometimes survival means leaving. Sometimes leaving only proves how much still follows you.
  4. The Desert Between — Book 4
    There is a space between danger and healing. The desert becomes a test of endurance, memory, loyalty, and the strength it takes to keep moving.
  5. After The Wire — Book 5
    The wire was supposed to mark the boundary between danger and safety. But some battles follow you home.

Dark, emotional, and driven by consequence — for readers who want relationship fiction with depth, military undertones, and characters still fighting for a life that feels like their own.
