The Keyhole Chronicles – Book 1

The night he proposed was the night I began to plan my escape.

Running Miami's most exclusive boutique hotel has taught me how to make perfection look effortless. But when a picture-perfect wedding proposal cracked that flawless image, I began to see the truth I'd been avoiding. Between celebrity guests, dangerous betrayals, and the pull of a place I've never been, I must choose whether to keep living someone else's vision…or finally claim my own. –Nyla Baines

People think I'm past my prime. Let's see how wrong they are.

I once smuggled students out of a war zone, yet some people still treat me like I've faded into the background. At sixty-four, I refuse to be anyone's forgotten old woman. With my closest friends beside me and the rhythms of Ethiopia still in my bones, I'm reclaiming my story—on my terms, in my voice—before anyone else decides how it ends. –Mae Bekele

The Bar You Inherit, the Regulars Who Raised You, and the Woman You Didn't See Coming

Some rooms know you better than you know yourself.

I inherited Shorty's from an uncle who drank himself out of a liver—along with regulars who watched me grow from girl to woman behind that bar. I became a master mixologist. Learned to read every face in the room. But what I never learned to read was my own life. Then she walked in—a woman who barely came around, for good reason, but rattled the hell out of my hands every time she did. I thought I was the steady one. I didn't know how fast the best thing that had happened to me in years could start to feel like the one thing I couldn't hold.
