A Dangerous mind

by Dawn Shaquille Kelly

Aniyah Holloway spends years trapped by nightclub owner Lenell Kincaid, who beats her, isolates her, and runs a crime family through the club. After the system fails her, she buys an unlicensed revolver and waits in black clothes in the parking lot to kill him. The shot goes wrong when childhood friend Rashad Davenport drags her into the alleys as Lenell's crew opens fire. They hide at Arthur Vance's river salvage yard while attorney Rachel Sutton and VIP hostess Brenda Keller gather ledgers on payoffs and trafficking. Lenell hunts them with cops he owns and a love triangle tightens as Rashad's loyalty turns into slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers heat. Aniyah's mind splits between memory and waking nightmare. The first ten chapters cover the failed hit, the escape, the first night of trust, the evidence drop, and a cliffhanger that proves Lenell already owns their next breath.
