Niyah Monroe was done letting the wrong man play in her face.
After wasting years with Terrence, a clean-cut liar who knew how to smile in public and damage her in private, Niyah is finally trying to rebuild her confidence, her beauty brand, and her peace. But one rooftop confrontation turns her private heartbreak into public drama.
Then Kairo Bishop steps in.
He is tattooed, powerful, protective, and everything Niyah knows she should be careful with. His name makes rooms go quiet, but his actions make her feel safer than she has in years. He does not try to own her. He does not try to silence her. He simply stands beside her while she remembers who she is.
Kairo has a past of his own, and loving Niyah means telling the truth before his old life tells it for him. As Niyah’s toxic ex tries to expose her struggles and embarrass her business, she must decide if this unexpected connection is moving too fast—or if better love simply showed up right on time.
A Thug Loved Me Better is a steamy, emotional, funny urban romance about healing, choosing better, protecting your peace, and finding love where you least expected it.
