CHIEF OF STAFF
A little over twenty years ago, four exceptional young Black women came together to form a plan…
The idea was to completely change the way political figures think. To exert control with intellectual prowess and strategy born of objective manipulation. To remove emotion and do whatever it took without remorse. But also without the white man’s influence. They figured that moral superiority was useless in a government built upon the backs of slaves and murder.
“Black Women have always been better. We’ve had to be in order to survive. To defeat a monster, we have to become a bigger one. So, maybe it’s time we stopped trying to be right, and just started trying to win, no matter what it takes…”
Each woman had a role:
Hacker/Investigator
Monetary Acquisitions
The Candidate/The Face
And the political mastermind behind it all. The woman responsible for every strategic decision.
Angela Kelly is a lot of things in this dynamic. The second youngest cousin, an older sister, and the moral center of the group. She does everything by the book. No rules broken unless absolutely necessary.
So, when the president needs a new VP, she finds the perfect man for the job. He’s not perfect because of all the things he is (Attractive, Intelligent, & Black), but rather all the things he can be for the Kelly Administration.
The problem?
He’s single, irreverent, and has no interest in cleaning up his image for the job. The only thing he is interested in… is Angela Kelly, the Chief of Staff.
However, his position makes him off limits to her, lest she desires to complicate things for everyone, and Angela has absolutely no intentions of starting to break the rules now. So, how long can she stick to her convictions when she’s forced to work with her greatest temptation every single day?
And will it spell disaster for them when she finally gives in?

Each woman had a role:

Monetary Acquisitions
Political Strategist
And the face pretty enough to distract the general public with a perfect smile, while the real work was being done behind the scenes. The candidate, born a prodigy and ruthless weapon honed to manipulate and seduce.
But she needed a husband. A First Gentleman. And, under pure happenstance, Vaughn Harrison all but fell into her lap at the perfect time. However, while our candidate desired a ‘mutually beneficial arrangement’, Vaughn wanted to be her everything.
So, we have a bit of a dilemma, I’d say. But I’m sure marriage could fix all that, right?
No? Well, I’d beg to differ…
This is how The United States of America elected its first African American female President… how The Kelly Cousins stole one of the greatest countries in the world… and how Anita Kelly became Madam President Anita Harrison-Kelly.
Hallow's Eve
It all started with a Haunted House attraction that simply got a bit too... real.
The Private Eye That Eyes Your Privates
My best friend seems to have found his soulmate on a new dating app. I’m just here in case she turns out to be crazy. Funnily enough… so is he?
Apparently, I don’t corner the market on overprotectiveness. Which is fine. But must he be overprotective right where I’m trying to be overprotective? Does the man not know what personal space is? Who invited him to my table, and why is he so comfortable annoying me, a perfect stranger?
His sister is here to meet my best friend. And I don’t trust neither one of ‘em. So, I’ve got my eye on them both. And before you ask, no he’s not cute. And no, I’m not attracted to him. He’s a nuisance with a blinding smile that won’t leave me alone to hover over my friend in peace! If he so much as touches my plate, I’m flipping this whole Baskin Robbins table over, you hear me? Ice cream will paint the walls, and so will his screams of anguish. I don’t play about my food…
This is a short story about the very... interesting way Xavier Baker and Nivea Dunks first met.
What If I Deserve You
He hates the media. She IS the media.
April Thomas is a journalist specializing in music at The Topic, an up and coming magazine. They've secured the interview of the decade... Hip Hop/R&B artist, Boston Scott. But the only sparks that fly between the two when they meet are filled with animosity and irritation. Somehow, they still manage to get the interview completed. Even if it took some serious effort to sit in the same room with each other calmly.
And this would be great news for them both, if the magazine wasn't branching off into new ventures. The Topic is moving on to video production. Which could mean a huge promotion for April. And guess who their first documentary is going to feature...
April and the film crew will be following the Spotlight Tour, giving the masses a look at the superstar in his natural element on stage. He may hate to admit it, but Boston needs this almost as much as April does. And they have to put their hatred towards each other to the side and work together once more.
What neither of them saw coming was the connection and attraction that'd be waiting for them once they did. However, the band is full of comical and outrageous friends without filters or tact, and April's family is always right there, pushing all of her buttons. So, if nothing else, this tour will be one for the books.
Literally!
