Everything she wanted was within reach—until a public betrayal shattered her world and landed her behind bars.

The perfect man to help: Giv Sirazi, the Iranian American lawyer who rebuilt his own body and learned to make every repair invisible. He’s known as much for his loyalty as for his ability to fix any mess without leaving a trace. But the one problem he can’t fix is his dead marriage…to Emika’s best friend. The very same friend who landed her in prison. It doesn’t help that the feelings towards Emika he thought were long buried have started simmering while she’s been away. So, when she turns to him for help in clearing her name, he decides his loyalty is to her.
Despite their clashing approaches, Emika and Giv work together to unravel the conspiracy and decades-long betrayal that ruined her life. But being so close resurfaces the emotional minefield of their past. What starts as survival becomes seduction, and Emika must decide if reclaiming her future means sacrificing the man who’s finally seeing her for who she is.

A woman goes head-to-head with the CEO of a corporation threatening to destroy her neighborhood in this fresh and modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice by debut author Nikki Payne.
Liza B.—the only DJ who gives a jam—wants to take her neighborhood back from the soulless property developer dropping unaffordable condos on every street corner in DC. But her planned protest at a corporate event takes a turn after she mistakes the smoldering-hot CEO for the waitstaff. When they go toe-to-toe, the sparks fly—but her impossible-to-ignore family thwarts her every move. Liza wants Dorsey Fitzgerald out of her hood, but she’ll settle for getting him out of her head.
At first, Dorsey writes off Liza Bennett as more interested in performing outrage than acting on it. As the adopted Filipino son of a wealthy white family, he’s always felt a bit out of place and knows a fraud when he sees one. But when Liza’s protest results in a viral meme, their lives are turned upside down, and Dorsey comes to realize this irresistible revolutionary is the most real woman he’s ever met.
