    ...like a woman scorned.

    --

    Callie Sioson had always thought she'd marry her boyfriend, Jacob, but when she happens upon concrete proof of his infidelity, she exposes him to his entire family. As a result, her honorable would-be mother-in-law disowns him and in her guilt is there for Callie in the aftermath. What follows are snippets of Callie's life in Louise's home, months of tension, and an unspoken attraction between the overprotective widow and the newly single woman.

    Summary

    It’s the height of the cocaine boom. Gritty, flashy, hedonistic, and full of cocaine. Palm trees and neon lights. When negotiations with one of the most notorious Romanian mob families go awry, they lose at least ten million dollars worth of coke stolen and used. How do you atone for the sins of someone else’s mistake? How do you pay back the most notorious woman in the country alone? Simple. You can’t, not without offering something worthwhile.

    Sunshine. Palm Trees. White lines. White lies.

    ***
    “Are you telling me she is worth ten million dollars of Coke?” Her voice cuts through like ice, yet it is rich in timbre and smooth.

    Silver-like eyes fall on you, inspecting, carnivorous and predatory like. Different than at the diner. The snap of her finger. You’re thrust towards her. She grips your chin. Her tongue roved the inside of her mouth. You stare up at her, terrified, confused, and queasy, feeling the day's heat seeping through the desolate warehouse's walls. Your legs quivering beneath.

    “I’ll keep her as collateral.”

    Summary

    “What will you do?” I asked, curious, and wanting to run scenarios in my head before she did whatever it was that was brewing behind her intense brown eyes.

    “I’m the Vice President, I’ll do whatever I have to do. Whatever is in my power. We have to stop this.”

    Valerie, an experienced and no-nonsense political staffer, knew that working for Vice President Kamala Harris was going to be different from any of her prior positions, but she didn't anticipate how the woman behind the title would disrupt everything she thought she knew about the world. And herself.
