The Fixer

Friends with benefits. Zero expectations. And enough history to know exactly where the boundaries are.

For six years, Marcelle Baptiste and Owen Holder have had an arrangement that works.

Owen is The Fixer. Not her future.

Marcelle is ambitious, independent, and determined to build a life on her own terms. She has spent years carefully maintaining the boundaries she established between herself and Owen, keeping their friendship, undeniable chemistry, and complicated history exactly where she wants them.

Owen has always understood the arrangement. He knows Marcelle better than almost anyone, including the reasons she keeps certain parts of herself guarded. For years, he has been content to let their relationship exist without labels, expectations, or promises. Until something changes.

The man who never wanted marriage suddenly wants more.

Just as Marcelle begins claiming more for herself, Owen challenges the one boundary she never expected him to question. Now she must decide whether the man she never planned a future with is the one she actually wants to build one with.

Set against the vibrant rhythm of Brooklyn, where Caribbean culture, family traditions, lifelong friendships, and neighborhood connections shape everyday life, The Fixer explores what happens when two people who thought they had each other completely figured out discover there is still more to learn.

The Fixer is Book One of Queen of Kings, an interconnected contemporary romance series celebrating love, ambition, friendship, family, and the beautifully complicated relationships that make Brooklyn home.

A steamy, emotionally layered romance about second chances, changing expectations, and discovering that sometimes the person who knows you best is the one capable of surprising you most.

For mature readers ages 18 and older.
