Concrete Roses (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798235226425)

Milan's world shattered the night her brother was murdered.

The police called it another street killing. Closed case. No answers. No justice. But Milan knows her brother wasn't living the kind of life that should've ended in bloodshed-and the deeper she digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Then Ace shows up at her door. Tall. Tattooed. Mysterious. A man with haunted eyes and information nobody else should have. He claims Milan's brother didn't die by accident... he was silenced. And the people responsible are far more powerful than she could ever imagine.

Ace was supposed to deliver a warning and walk away. Instead, he finds himself pulled toward Milan in ways he never expected. What starts as a search for answers quickly turns into obsession, loyalty, and a love neither of them can afford. Now they're running through a city filled with corruption, betrayal, violence, and secrets buried beneath Charlotte's streets. And the closer Milan gets to the truth about her brother's death, the more she realizes everybody around her is hiding something-including Ace.

Because in Charlotte, love can get you killed and some roses only bloom through pain.

CONCRETE ROSES is a gritty urban romance packed with danger, emotional twists, forbidden love, and street loyalty that refuses to break.
