About
Hey there! I'm 31, originally from Houston, Texas, now living in Thailand and finally living out my dream as a writer. It still feels surreal to say that. I truly hope my stories pull you in and leave a mark on your heart.
To be honest, there was a time I didn’t think I’d write again. Life got heavy, and the creative spark dimmed for a while. But stepping away from the chaos gave me space to breathe—and from that came a story I’m incredibly proud of.
The Five Families: Solano Series is full of heart, grit, and emotion, and I can’t wait for you to dive in. Grab your copy from the link in my profile—and if it speaks to you, don’t forget to leave a review. Your support means the world.

Story Behind The Book
The Five Families: Solano Series is a layered tale of power, blood ties, betrayal, and legacy.
At its core, the series follows the Solano family, a powerful empire born from the fusion of Italian and African American heritage. They operate with influence in both legitimate businesses and the criminal underworld, commanding respect and fear on all fronts. Their strength lies in loyalty—but that loyalty is constantly tested.
Behind the scenes, however, jealousy brews, secrets unravel, and enemies—both inside and outside the family—begin to circle. The series dives deep into themes of:
Family loyalty vs. self-preservation
Forbidden love that defies family codes
Power struggles that pit blood against blood
Romantic entanglements that threaten legacies
Betrayals with deadly consequences
As each book unfolds, readers are pulled deeper into the dangerous web of the Solanos and the four other families whose lives, fates, and secrets intertwine in dramatic—and sometimes fatal—ways.
It's not just about crime. It's about legacy, identity, and how far you’ll go to protect what’s yours.
