The Velvet Legacy Series
The Velvet Legacy Series is a dark, genre-bending exploration of romance suspense, psychological power play romance, with a political plot motivator that embraces legacy, inheritance, and survival within elite families who rule quietly in a secret society of wealth, tradition, and unspoken law.
Set against a backdrop of luxury estates, political secrecy, and morally compromised relationships, the series follows women and men bound by legacy—where desire becomes leverage, silence becomes currency, and intimacy carries consequence.
Love is never simple. Loyalty is never clean. Every connection tests the cost of control. At its core, The Velvet Legacy interrogates what we inherit, what we protect, and what we are willing to destroy—including ourselves—to remain standing.
Black Orchids Cry Gold
Power is inherited.
Silence is enforced.
Gold always comes at a cost.
After a violation that fractures her sense of safety, Sadira finds herself adrift inside a world that refuses to slow down for her pain. The elite society she was born into continues as it always has, bound by old money, unspoken agreements, and carefully buried truths. Healing, she learns, must happen quietly—if it happens at all.
As power shifts behind closed doors and silence tightens its grip, Sadira is drawn into the orbit of Dominick Nerano, a man whose authority is measured, controlled, and deeply guarded. Their connection is restrained but charged, built on watchfulness rather than promises, trust rather than illusion. It is not a love story yet—but it might become one, if she can risk it.
Caught between who she was raised to be and who she is becoming, Sadira must navigate a world where survival often means self-betrayal, and love—when it appears—demands more than she’s ready to give.
Black Orchids Bleed Velvet
Power never disappears. It only changes hands.
Sadira Abadi leaves the Nerano estate behind with her fortune restored and her past severed. Dante is no longer her anchor — or her chaos — and she lets him go, choosing distance over damage as he turns toward Clea and the life he’s already begun to burn.
With Dominick Nerano bound to a new relationship built on order and optics, Sadira is forced to look elsewhere — toward unfamiliar alliances and a dangerous new attraction in Max Marquello, a man whose charm masks ambition and whose loyalty is anything but guaranteed.
Now a Throne in her own right, Sadira steps fully into the Velvet Table’s shadow world, navigating shifting loyalties, quiet rivalries, and political seduction. Every conversation is a negotiation. Every invitation carries intent. And trust is the rarest currency of all.
But something darker is moving beneath the surface.
A hidden hand begins to tighten around the Abadi bloodline. Murders ripple outward. Threats arrive with unsettling precision. And the Velvet Table — fractured, expanded, and newly vulnerable — must confront the possibility that one of their own is orchestrating its collapse.
As suspicion spreads and bodies pile up, the question is no longer who belongs at the Table — but who is pulling the strings.
Because when velvet bleeds, it stains everyone.
And not all power struggles end with survivors.
