But even though their chemistry is palpable, Nia’s always been a people pleaser and Deacon doesn’t fit-with people.
But when Nia holds the Book of Disasters-a devilish tome – it slowly reveals its secrets. It foretells when humanity bleeds.
Soon, Nia and Deacon are thrust into battling a shadowy forcewhose goal is to retrieve the book. As they navigate their escape, family connections and burgeoning feelings fuel their motivations.
But staying one step ahead means fighting a tidal wave of chaos and two well-meaning siblings who have never understood the real cost of being different.
THE SECOND BOOK IN THE SERIES: FINDING DIFFERENT COMING SOON
In the Loving Different series, you first meet Deacon and Nia in Chasing Different (Book One). Now, the fire burns hotter as their siblings, Sin and Jonesy, enter the ring. He’s got a past that won’t let him go. She’s got a heart that refuses to break. When two forces collide, sparks fly, and love might be the fiercest battle.
When covert operative Sincere “Sin” Lewis teeters on the edge of control, her assassin alter ego, Pop, threatens to consume her entirely—turning survival into a dangerous game where her heart is the ultimate pawn.
Once a top Special Services agent, Sin’s career is in freefall, and Pop’s grip is tightening. Now, with the ruthless Council tracking her every move, she must navigate a treacherous battlefield—one where the most significant enemy might be the one lurking within.
Desperate to regain control, Sin turns to two unexpected allies: Jonesy Everette, an ex-survivalist separatist whose charm both frustrates and fascinates her and her enigmatic ex, Onyx—a Black Ops agent who never failed her in the field but shattered her trust when it mattered most. He didn’t just break her heart; he put a bullet in it.
Together, they must navigate a web of danger, secrets, and combustible chemistry. But can either man truly understand the war raging inside Sin?
As the Council closes in and Pop’s chaos threatens to consume her, Sin’s personal and professional lives collide in a storm of secrets, betrayal, and deadly consequences.
Adding to her dismay, confronting her sister Nia and Deacon’s picture-perfect happiness that may be fracturing Sin, the fixer may fail at fixing it all unless she embraces her darkest side or, for once, walks into the light to save everything—and everyone—she loves.
Unleashing the secret of being different might be the key to everything.

THE THIRD BOOK IN THE SERIES: LOVING DIFFERENT COMING SOON
Loving Different: Book Three, the prequel to the Loving Different series, unveils the forbidden romance that shaped Deacon and Jonesy’s legacy.
In 1990s rural America, Jones Everette lives under the oppressive rule of his separatist uncle, who enforces a legacy of hate. The camp his uncle controls dictates every aspect of Jones’s life, from his future to his freedom, even forcing him into fatherhood at sixteen. But when Jones uncovers a horrifying secret about the camp, his determination to break free becomes unstoppable.
At college, Jones meets Linnette Williams, a driven African American student whose life has been defined by sacrifice. Linnette’s only focus is to succeed, escape a town that treats her family as second-class citizens, and support her autistic brother. Romance is the last thing on her mind—until she meets Jones.
What begins as a reluctant friendship ignites into a love neither of them expected. However, for Jones’s uncle, their relationship is the ultimate betrayal, and he will stop at nothing to destroy it. With the camp and its followers demanding retribution, Jones and Linnette must make an impossible choice: abandon their dreams of love or risk everything—including their lives—for a future together.
A stirring story of resilience, forbidden love, and the courage to defy prejudice, Loving Different asks: How far would you go to follow your heart? When the world casts them out, can love draw them in?
