Evening Begins the Day (2026)
Jessica Brilliant Keener
"Evening Begins the Day follows lives drifting through their own wildernesses. As a marriage shaken by infidelity and a mother trying to keep her daughter safe without losing her trust begin to overlap in unexpected ways, the novel unfolds like a confession: honest, intimate, and impossible to put down. It asks how we measure love and live with uncertainty when trust is broken and relationships feel like guessing in the dark. A gorgeous, important work of hard-earned love, and you will be changed by reading it."
A Past That Breathes (2021)
Noel A Obiora
"Noel Obiora’s debut, A Past that Breathes, pits two untested criminal lawyers against each other, entangling them in danger, passion, twists and turns right to the end. The trial challenges not only the lawyers and the jury, but also the reader to examine how crimes, suspects and motives look different through the lens of racial bias."
Bittersweet Brooklyn (2018)
Thelma Adams
"Set in the savage underbelly of a Mafia-linked social club and amusement park, Bittersweet Brooklyn tells the sizzling and unforgettable family saga of a brother and sister who must pit survival against loyalty, desire, and compassion."
