A Taste of Forever by Melody Lynch
At forty-five, Vivian should have it all together.
Instead, she’s failing in her leadership role, the young women she mentors seem to hate her, and her ex-husband refuses to respect boundaries when it comes to their son.
So when the stress becomes too much, she throws on her nightgown, robe, and bonnet for a late-night run to a sketchy gas station—just to grab a bottle of cheap wine and clear her head.
But her bad night gets worse when she stumbles onto a deadly operation.
Enter Mr. Tall, Dark, and Dangerous, who saves her.
Marquis' touch ignites something in Vivian, something she thought was long gone.
The two share a passionate one-night affair—or so Vivian thinks.
But Marquis wants much more from her.
When she tries to shut him down, he refuses to be just a fling.
Because he’s not just a man. And when it comes to her, he will not take no for an answer.
Now, Vivian has to decide—will she let the differences between them keep them apart, or will she be his… eternally?
The Perfect Manny by Rosè Dior

That was until, on the night she vowed her life to her husband, he delivers a revelation that shatters everything she thought she knew.
With her marriage unraveling and her life now spinning out of control, hiring a nanny becomes a necessity she never anticipated. Enter Basil Cassidy—the handsome, attentive, and impossible to ignore manny she didn’t know she needed. Keeping things professional suddenly feels like the hardest task she’d ever face.
For Basil, caring for children isn’t just work—it’s his calling. Launching his own nanny services had always been the goal, and when fate brings Alicia Hill into his path not once but twice, he immediately recognizes the signs of a familiar heartbreak behind her smile. When she requested his services, it felt less like business and more like fate.
Lines blur. Attraction grows. And hearts long guarded begin to open. Will Alicia be able to keep things professional? Or will falling for the almost perfect manny cost her more than she’s prepared to lose?

Please Mean Well by Faith J.
Valleigh Andover
I seriously thought I was the problem. All I ever wanted was to fall in love with a man then start a family with him, living happily ever after in a little bubble of our own making until our last breaths. But I was just a girl after all, who had to learn the painfully hard way that just because you want something won’t make it so. I was not looking to be swept off my feet when I placed the call that changed everything, nor could I have prepared myself for the whirlwind of emotions I felt the second I laid eyes on him. Who cares if he’s a superstar known for his toxic lover boy lyrics because I can resist his charming nature, right?
Symphony ‘Sym’ Sinclaire
I couldn’t tell you exactly what it was, but I knew something was missing from my life. I’d reached the point where the fame, money, and women no longer appealed to me. So, when I got the call I’d been waiting years for, I took it as a sign and opportunity to escape the cameras. What I found in my hometown was more than I felt ready for, until I heard her name by a twisted stroke of fate. I walked straight into her classroom, and just that easily what I thought was dead and gone slammed into me with a truth I couldn’t ignore—she was mine. I didn’t know if it was delusion or the voice of God that made me pursue her, but when it spoke, I moved, because my days of surviving without her were over. I needed her, and I wasn’t afraid to let it be known.
The Mogul’s Assistant: A Forbidden Workplace Romance by Janae Dixon
The rule was simple: don't mix business with anything that could burn the whole thing down.
Caleb Ward built Ward Legacy Studios from nothing. He protects it the way other men protect their firstborn. No exceptions, no entanglements, no complications, and absolutely no getting involved with anyone on his payroll.
Then Arielle Monroe becomes his executive assistant and proceeds to be the most competent, composed, and distracting person he has ever shared a building with.
She's not trying to get his attention. That's the problem.
Arielle has her own reasons for keeping things professional. She came back to Atlanta to rebuild, not to fall for a man whose approval could end her career. She knows what this situation looks like from the outside. She knows exactly what she stands to lose.
She also knows what she feels, and it's getting harder to file that away.
Two people. One policy. And a choice that neither of them can keep pretending they aren't making.
Emotional, explicit, and completely worth the risk.
His Chosen Wife by C. Monet
Colecion Outlaw has survival figured out. She built her business from nothing, keeps her circle small, and stopped expecting people to stay a long time ago. Love isn't something she's against, she just knows better than to build anything on a foundation that can walk out the door. She wants to be chosen. Genuinely, deliberately chosen. She's just never met anyone who made her believe they meant it.
Then, one night in a basement, everything changes.
Lesley Grimson takes over his family’s empire, and from across a crowded dining room, he sees her. Smells her. When the night goes sideways and she ends up somewhere she shouldn't be, witnessing something she can’t unsee, he doesn't see a problem.
He sees an opportunity.
Marriage is his solution. Practical, clean, airtight. She gets protection. He gets her silence. That’s what he tells everyone, including himself. What he doesn’t say is that he’d already made up his mind about Colecion Outlaw before the ink dried on anything.
What follows is a woman waiting for the other shoe to drop and a man determined to prove he's not going anywhere. A forced arrangement becoming the one thing neither of them knew how to ask for. Survival turning into something neither of them planned on.
Love.
The Man She Tried to Forget: A Lagos Hearts Romance (The Lagos Hearts Collection Book 15) by Funmi Adeshina
Some love stories do not end.
They relocate.
Four years ago, Ewatomi Adeleke walked away from the man she loved with her dignity intact and her questions unanswered.
She told herself she had outgrown him.
Life moved forward. Her career expanded. Her composure sharpened into something steady and self-protective.
Then an invitation arrives.
A destination wedding.
A private guest list.
A shared flight she cannot avoid.
Dolapo Okanlawon will be there.
The man she once loved.
The man who never fought for her.
The only man who ever made her wonder whether walking away had been strength… or fear.
What begins as polite distance slowly becomes something neither of them expected. Conversations stretch longer than planned. Memories return with new meaning. Silence, once mistaken for indifference, begins to reveal itself as restraint.
But forgiveness requires more than memory.
It requires honesty.
And honesty demands courage neither of them had four years ago.
Set between Lagos and a quiet island wedding, The Man She Tried to Forget is a sophisticated, emotionally rich second-chance romance about dignity, timing, vulnerability, and the quiet courage required to choose love again.
Perfect for readers who enjoy mature, character-driven romance where emotional depth matters as much as attraction.
Welcome back to Lagos—where love does not shout.
It waits.

But some wounds run deeper than anyone can see. And sometimes the hardest step of faith is believing that grace can reach even the most broken places.
At the end of the day, will Anissa find the courage to believe God can still rebuild a life as broken as hers?

In the courtroom, she is untouchable. Outside of it, desire knows no rules.
Kristel Angel Belfield has built her life on discipline, precision, and power. As the youngest partner at the prestigious, Black-owned Belfield & Belfield law firm, she has earned her reputation through relentless focus and an unbreakable commitment to winning. Control isn’t just her strength—it’s her shield.
Until Calvin Gunner Carrington walks into her world.

In a world where perception is everything and loyalty is currency, one forbidden connection could cost them their careers, their reputations, and their futures.

Then Eli shows up.
Too good to be true.
Book-boyfriend good.
Quiet. Observant. Built like he fixes problems with his hands instead of words. Skin so rich and carefully tended it makes a woman wonder what else he takes his time with.

I give in.
I let go.
But since Eli is the kind of man who doesn’t push. Doesn’t rush. He simply makes space and allows the quiet to invite you in. In that space, I remember what it feels like to stop bracing for impact.
I agreed to release my cape for one week.
I calculated the risk of staying.
What I didn’t calculate or account for was the cost of leaving.
