Porscha Sterling

I'm Janelle Alexandria Elizabeth-Ann Pickney. The oldest of four girls. Graduate of New York Law School, two years earlier than expected, at the top of my class and apple of my father’s eye. After years of hard work and dedication, I’m finally rewarded by being able to sit in on one of the biggest trials in the city, being handled by the district attorney himself. I’m excited and terrified about working with him. After all my years of dreaming, the time has finally come. 

But then I met him... Luke “Outlaw” Murray. The youngest of six boys. Graduate at the top of his class at hood university where he got his degree in the streets. Certified in Street Nigga-ology. He’s rude. He’s arrogant. He’s abrasive and he’s… did I say he was rude? He’s everything I don’t want in a man. Everything I shouldn’t want… until I do. 

And this... this is a story about us. But beware, because it's not your average love story.

Read the synopsis below and prepare yourselves for Only a Bad Boy Can Love Her, available January 2021!

Balance. 

Balance was my everything. 

Growing up as a classically trained ballerina with dreams of being a professional dancer, balance was my life. Everything about me depended on it; my diet, my temper, my sleep and waking schedule. I even dedicated myself to rigorous yoga and martial arts training to learn how to maintain focus by balancing my breath. Balance was literally my everything.

Living like this came with several rules and I was the kind of person who didn’t mind following them. Rules were made to protect me; they kept me safe. And I never had issues following them but, to be totally honest, I never once had a reason not to. 

At least, not until I met him.

 

My name is January Luckeisha Murray, daughter of the honorable Janelle Murray and Luke ‘Outlaw’ Murray, the infamous leader of the Black Bag Mafia, an underground crime society. Most know me as the apple of his eye, a cherished mafia princess who always followed her father’s rules about staying out of the public’s eye. But now daddy’s little girl is all grown up and I’m ready to share my story. 

This is a story about the time when I decided to break all the rules… The time I fell in love.

Only a Bad Boy Can Love Her

Have you ever had the feeling that you’re living a dream?

I have. Or maybe I should say ‘I do’ because I get that feeling every single day.

Marrying Luke was the one thing in my life that I couldn’t have ever predicted, but you know what they say about bad boys...they are hard to resist. Now, it’s years later, and we’ve built the life that we always wanted. I’m a Federal judge, handling a case that could get me nominated to become a Supreme Court Justice. And Luke? He’s running the world...just as he always knew he would be.

There aren’t many things I could ask for that he hasn’t given me. But unfortunately, there is one other thing that the anonymous ‘they’ always say. And that is, all good things must come to an end.

I wish I could tell you that the words ‘happily ever after’ could accurately describe the story of our romance. I wish I could tell you that once we fell hopelessly in love with each other, things would forever remain the same. I wish I could tell you that life never forced us apart...

But I can’t. Because wishes are for children and ‘happily ever afters’...well, that only happens in fairytales.

True love does have the power to redeem but only if we are ready for redemption. Love saves us only if we want to be saved.

—bell hooks

In the heart of the city where love battles betrayal and trust is a luxury, love was my anchor. But now, it's slipping away.

Only yesterday, I was lost in Luke's eyes, celebrating two decades of love. But now? He's facing a life behind bars, leaving me shattered, vulnerable, and questioning every choice I've ever made.

Enter Bone—a blast from the past with that same intoxicating allure that once tempted me away from everything I knew. When I was broken, he became my sanctuary. And now, he's back, not just to heal my wounds, but to claim my heart.

But love's never simple for people like us. Especially since I’ve found out that, while Bone whispers promises in my ear, Luke's spending his time with Madyson Hill. Did I make a mistake in choosing him all those years ago? Was the man for me, my true soulmate, really Bone?

In a world where the past never seems to stay buried, I'm torn between two futures, two loves, and one heart that's racing toward the truth.
