“Meeting you was fate. Becoming your friend was a choice. But falling in love with you was beyond my control.” ~ Unknown Talia and Sergio Black certainly almost have it all: love, marriage, businesses, money, and a growing family. Everything is at the tip of their fingers but like a snap of a finger, Sergio’s indiscretions make their world as they know it disappear like magic. With forgiveness off of the table and divorce completely on it, things take a gruesome turn one drunken night, causing Talia to make a fleeting choice. Talia never thought a new destination would change her life totally around. But one elevator ride with one sexy chocolate azz man did exactly that. When Kane Carter enters her life, she finds out exactly how a man is supposed to treat a woman. With her past still painfully new and high on her trail, will Talia be able to truly start fresh again? Will her choice land her into something better or something worse? Betrayal, murder, secret rendezvous, and unexpected love can be found in best-selling author Lakia’s new dynamic, action-filled, and thrilling new urban African American standalone, A Week With A Kingpin. Discover if Talia will get a second chance to fall in real love for the first time.
