On a serene afternoon at the Crestview Asylum, a haven more like a resort than a traditional asylum, the sun shone warmly over perfectly manicured gardens. The asylum, designed to blend in with its natural surroundings, featured elegant stone pathways, lush greenery, and tranquil water features, creating a calming and serene environment.
Jordan Gabriel relaxed comfortably in an armchair on the expansive, sun-drenched terrace that overlooked a beautifully landscaped garden. The chair, upholstered in a soothing light beige fabric, was positioned under a large, artfully designed pergola that provided a gentle shade. Jordan’s attire was casual yet refined—a soft, cotton button-down shirt in a subtle pastel hue, paired with neatly pressed slacks and loafers that spoke of understated sophistication.

Ever wondered what became of Melodee and Amir after Mr. & Mrs. Jones’ epilogue? Though these two have appeared in a couple of stories since their “end,” their short story is the perfect summertime update.

It’s a tale of rekindling romance and creating unforgettable memories in a paradise made just for them.

When Luke Met Juliette was one of the stories in 2023 that wasn’t planned. The plan was to conclude my Love is Cure series; however, this story and the characters just wouldn’t let me be. The plan was to release it on Valentine’s Day. However, I was working on Gluttony’s release and didn’t want anything to get in the way of that story. So, I took a brief pause with WLMJ, and when I returned, I returned with this chapter, a chapter that does all the showing and very little telling. It shapes the foundation for characters Juliette Hart and Luke Lockett to never forget each other. It was the second chance that got fumbled.

Juliette Hart is a character favorite for me. Most of my heroines are usually fighting the feeling of falling in love out of fears brought on by their own consciousness. While at the start of When Luke Met Juliette, Juliette is doing everything to avoid falling for a guy again, she hasn’t completely ruled out the possibility of love. She’s just prioritized her career. As luck would have it, prioritizing her career creates a magnetic force that pulls her headfirst into love.
Let’s get to know our girl Juliette Hart, the girl with the gorgeous red hair, a little better.

Bright green strobe lights flashed all around me as I leaned back in my seat and opened my legs wider to get comfortable. Rap music reverberated around me, and I bobbed my head to the bass in the beat, lifting the rim of my shot glass to my lips to toss the contents back.

Ryder trailed soft kisses from my shoulder blade to my neck, releasing easy breaths that I could feel against my skin. I closed my eyes and ran my fingertips up his back and through his braids, turning my face in the direction of his kisses. His lips met mine and we both moaned the moment we made contact, parting our lips soon after. I had no idea what hour it was at that moment and it honestly didn’t matter. I allowed myself to be out of my head and in the moment.

The first sneak peek in the newsletter and I’m excited to share a short excerpt from my upcoming story – and the final book in the Love is Cure, Vol. 1 – Vices & Virtues series – Sloth. There are so many moments that I genuinely can’t wait for you to read. They are moments that made it impossible to wait to pen and they all serve as vehicles to move the story forward.
As a subscriber to Brookelynite Daily, you are getting a first look at the very first excerpt from Sloth before everyone else. I can’t wait to share more as we get closer to Sloth’s release!
Context: This scene is the main characters Eryn and Simeon’s meet-cute in Sloth. It’s their reunion after not seeing each other for over a decade, and the way they meet is quite unique.
Please note: Sloth is still unpublished, so this excerpt is still subject to change.
