*A Nashaé Story* 🖤
Everybody has secrets. But in the Jones family, some secrets are worth killing for.
Seventeen-year-old Nashaé Jones thought her senior year of high school would be about friends, drama, and figuring out who she wanted to become. But ever since her older brother, Darius, and his high-school sweetheart, Tiana, died under mysterious circumstances, nothing in her family has felt the same.
Everybody has a different story about what happened that night. Her father refuses to talk. Her mother hides behind warnings and unanswered questions. And the people Nashaé grew up trusting seem determined to keep her in the dark.
Then she catches the attention of Marshawn-a handsome, dangerous boy with ties to her brother and a past he refuses to explain. He knows things about Darius that nobody else will tell her. The closer Nashaé gets to him, the harder it becomes to tell whether he's protecting her, playing her, or hiding the very truth she's desperate to find.
But the truth goes deeper than a dead brother.
Behind the Jones family's money, power, and reputation lies a criminal empire built on blood, betrayal, and unimaginable secrets. When Nashaé begins uncovering evidence of human trafficking, exploitation, and murder, she realizes Darius and Tiana may have died trying to expose the people closest to them.
And somebody in her own family knows exactly why they had to die.
With danger closing in, old loyalties breaking, and feelings developing where they shouldn't, Nashaé must decide how far she's willing to go for the truth.
Because the closer she gets to discovering what really happened to her brother, the more she risks losing everyone she loves.
In a family built on secrets, the truth could be the deadliest betrayal of all.
She thought she caught a thug's eye. She never imagined she had caught the attention of someone who knew how her brother died.
