  Sundae Monroe Banks was born into pain. 
    
  After losing her father and being handed over to the streets by her own mother, she learned early: love is dangerous, and emotions are a weakness she can’t afford. 
    
  While most girls her age are picking colleges and chasing dreams, Sundae’s out here chasing survival. 
    
  Now nineteen, cold-blooded, and wise beyond her years, she stacks money, uses men, and keeps her heart locked behind walls nobody can break through. 
    
  Trust is dead. Loyalty is strictly conditional. 
    
  But when people she thought were solid start switching sides—and the past she tried to bury claws its way back—Sundae is forced to confront the one person she’s been running from … herself. 
    
  Selfish is a raw, gritty urban fiction novel packed with betrayal, heartbreak, and survival. 
    
  If you love street lit, hood love stories, and Black coming-of-age tales with real emotion and shocking twists, Selfish is a must-read. 
    
  “Because love might heal … But sometimes, being selfish is the only way to survive.”

  The Pit and the Pendulum

  Terror. Torture. Time running out. 
  Edgar Allan Poe’s The Pit and the Pendulum plunges listeners into the claustrophobic mind of a prisoner of the Spanish Inquisition, who awakens in utter darkness to face a series of psychological and physical torments. Chained beneath a slowly descending pendulum blade, surrounded by monstrous iron walls and the yawning mouth of a deadly pit, he must summon every ounce of courage, reason, and instinct to survive. 
  Nathan Edwards delivers a gripping narration of Poe’s masterwork of suspense, where every detail intensifies the dread and every moment ticks closer to the edge of madness. A landmark in Gothic literature and psychological horror, this story explores fear not through monsters, but through isolation, anticipation, and the diabolical ingenuity of man. 
  Perfect for fans of horror, dark suspense, classic literature, and the art of pure storytelling.

  From USA Today Bestselling author Nikki Ash comes a hate to lovers, second chance, rock star romance. 
  Braxton 
  Our senior year, I promised my girl forever. 
  Forever, as it turned out, wasn't enough. She told me so in her actions. When she took a match to my life, burning it to ash. 
  I headed to LA with my band—Raging Chaos—like we always planned, while Kaylee went to college, taking my damaged heart with her. 
  This was where our story was supposed to end. 
  Only six years later, our lives collide again. 
  Kaylee is the only thing I ever loved more than music, and I wish I could hate her for it, but the line between love and hate is thin, and often straddled. 
  And the thing about collisions? They result in deadly debris. 
  Kaylee 
  When you love someone, you let them go. But what I did was so much worse. 
  Because instead of pushing him away, I shoved Braxton straight over the edge. 
  I’ve spent the past several years avoiding him, trying to make things right. 
  When my reputation has been dragged through the mud, and I’m given the opportunity to clean it up, I have no choice but to cross paths with him again. 
  Being around Braxton is a harsh reminder of the way I lit his life up in flames, but I'm not sure he knows I've been burned, too. 
  If suffering in silence is the cost, I'll pay the price to make things right. 
  I just hope our history won’t play on repeat and he’ll see me as more than the stupid girl with the lit match. 
  AUTHOR’S NOTE: Like real life, the characters are far from perfect, make morally gray decisions, and deal with subjects that may be sensitive for some readers. If you are looking for a safe romance, this series is not for you. Trigger warnings (which contain spoilers) can be found on my website.
