Grown Folks Confessions
Layla Payne
Tattoo artist, Ares Hood. He always had the kind of name that was meant for the bedroom. Yet, I wasn’t the type of woman to make it easy for a man. Some might call me a tease, but I like to think I’m just a fast learner when it comes to everything in life … Except him. Ares and his crazy cousins have these naughty days they celebrate, so when I need his help, I’m almost convinced we can be more. As kids, I was infatuated with him. As young adults, I kind of loathed him. Now we’re grown and I’ve got little room for games, especially his kind.
Ares Hood
Interior designer, Layla Payne. Her last name should have been all the hint I needed. Keeping a complication like her in my life is bad for health … And my rep. Funny thing is, I’ve always enjoyed a good chase, and there was none more elusive than Layla. She thinks she has me pegged, but she can’t handle the real me. As kids, I loved her. As young adults, I sort of hated her. Now we’re grown and I’ve got some confessions to get off of my chest.
Make Me Confess (short story)
It’s time for me to confess. I, Indigo Monroe, have been keeping a naughty secret about Odysseus Hood. He may be my youngest brother’s best friend, but facts are facts. He once rocked my world in a way I never saw coming. Not only have the men in his family always been on my do-not-date list, but he’s too young for me and way too tempting. I can never go there with him again.
Until I do.
And now, I’m hooked.
This Black Lush short story is a quick flame, fast burn, best friends older sister kind of love that’s part of Naughty Season series. It can be read as a standalone.
F’Boy Confessions
Midas Hood
I don’t know how I found myself in this situation. Seriously, I should have known better. I was ready to hand over my f-boy card, until I was presented with an offer I couldn’t refuse. Now, I’m in a predicament I never saw coming.
My first rule in celebrating a naughty holiday is to never confess anything in bed that could come back to haunt me in the light of day. And I swore I’d never forget that notion… Until the object of all my frustrations – and obsessions – comes walking through the door of my shop looking gorgeous, determined, and out for blood. Particularly mine.
Make Them Confess (reverse Harem)
When I decide to hit the road and meet my friends for my impromptu divorce party, I’m prepared for an epic girls week. The last thing I expect is to get stranded alone in a deserted small town during the biggest snowstorm of the year. That’s when I find them. Elias, Stryker, Wade, Diesel, and Knox.
They run a tattoo shop and each man is so delicious I can barely think straight. By the time I inform them that my name is Navy and realize that I’ve met one of them before, they’re already insistent that I don’t leave. Staying is a terrible idea, but now that I’m free from my ex, I’m all about being bad.
Make Them Confess is a Black Lush story that is filled with naughty surprises. It ends in an HEA and can be read as a standalone.
Sinfully Sweet Confessions
Rio Hood
When she asked me if I liked them thick, I didn’t know she was talking about an actual milkshake. I didn’t make it any better either when I went on a rant about how much I love cake. Now, she thinks I can’t hold a conversation that doesn’t revolve around food. I mean, I do like to eat. And if she lets me, I’ll show her exactly how I like my sweets.
Yet, she’s not picking up what I’m putting down, despite all my homeboy charm. All I need is one day to prove to her that while some dessert is best served cold, I like mine extra hot.
Where it Started
Did you know that Theseus Hood was the first Greek Gawd to get a story before the launch of the Naughty Season series?
IVY
It all started off as a social experiment. A way for me to do something outside my comfort zone. The problem is, I never expected to run into him. The beautifully tatted man who oozes masculinity and sex appeal. The first time I met Theseus Hood, our chemistry was instant. Yet, I’ve never known what to do with a man like him. The dark, dangerous and way out of my league kind. Unfortunately, I’m in way over my head and can’t think of a better person to help me with my experiment than Theseus. If only I could find the courage to ask him.
THESEUS
I fell for Ivy Ashwood the day I met her years ago. Now, she’s in my tattoo shop looking more delicious than the last time I saw her. I can always sense when she’s overthinking something, but she doesn’t want to ask for my help. Lucky for her, I consider myself an Ivy-expert. I’ve never been good enough for her, but there’s nothing I wouldn’t do for this woman. So, when it comes to helping her out, the plan is simple … Convince her that I’m the only man for the job and finally make the move I should have made years ago.
