Where ambition meets desire, the rules don’t matter only the heat does. Heat and High Stakes brings together four African American romances charged with passion, danger, and power, where every choice risks both heart and legacy.
In Losing the Bet, a fearless woman addicted to risk meets the one man who refuses to play her game. Full Court Press follows a star athlete and the journalist assigned to cover him, their attraction simmering until the lines between work and want start to blur. Menage at Tiffany’s pulls three powerful lives into a private world of luxury and secrecy, where desire is currency and trust comes with a cost. And in Sidelined, competition turns intimate as loyalty and temptation collide beneath the glare of football stadium lights.
From boardrooms to locker rooms, these stories pulse with tension and pleasure where every touch has consequences and every victory comes at a price.
When love turns into a gamble, who wins and who’s left standing in the fire?

Part of the Lust & Legacy series four steamy African American romance collections where love, ambition, and desire ignite unforgettable journeys.
Lust & Legacy traces the thin line where desire meets ambition, and love becomes both power and peril. Set against the shimmer of city lights and the silence between confessions, these stories follow lovers who refuse to surrender to time, to fear, to the ghosts of what came before.
Each tale unravels the tension between hunger and consequence, showing how passion can build empires or break them apart. In the end, every secret leaves its mark, and every choice writes its own inheritance.
When desire shapes destiny, what kind of legacy does love leave behind?
