If she can't have her family why should Vixen have hers? Her first victim? The loving marriage Vixen and Gino created from their pain. Will Vixen and Gino be able to survive the tempest that becomes their lives? Or will this love affair soon come to an end? Stay tuned for the third installment of A Brooklyn Love Affair.

Vixen Williams has always been known as a woman of many faces. The fiercely devoted one she uses for her best friend, the one of a lover and confidant to her fiancé, and the real one she keeps reserved for looking in the mirror and battling her inner demons. Life is fairly normal for Vixen until her verbally abusive mother reenters her life, dredging up traumatic childhood memories, and bringing a handsome stranger into the mix with her devious antics causing Vixen to reprise her role as caregiver and bread winner. Gino Romano is infamous for many reasons: his notoriety for being one of the youngest king pins in New York City, the cold manner in which he handles business, and the notable political ties he's managed to create along the way through "profit sharing." However, the most prominent thing he's known for is the ice fortress he's built around his heart. Because of his past, Gino keeps women at an arms length, believing it hard to find one who could accept the scarred past he comes with. Until he lays eyes on Vixen. Brought together for all the wrong reasons, Vixen and Gino find a common ground that not only develops into a budding friendship, but sparks a love affair. From the moment they become one they must fight to protect their love from those who plan to destroy it by any means necessary, one of which being the very reason Vixen ran away from home ten years ago in the dead of night. Will the forces determined to see Gino and Vixen destroyed win? Or will their love prevail? Set in a spicy Brooklyn backdrop, A Brooklyn Love Affair brings to life pain, forgiveness, and the never ending possibility of finding love.

With a table of their enemies prepared before them and Charles sitting at the very head, Vixen and Gino find themselves battling not only for the preservation of their love, but for their lives. With allegiances destroyed, family has become the enemy and if Gino and Vixen hope to escape harm’s way unscathed they have to choose between saving those who continually damn them or to stand behind each other, even if it means dying together. But what happens when these enemies share a common goal? That an unlikely alliance is formed to not only take Vixen down, but also to drag her back to the roots she worked so hard to evade. Or the person who knows Gino’s kryptonite uses it to destroy everything he’s worked so hard to build. And at the center of it all is a greedy Mahogany, whose boss remains the almighty dollar. With their lives hanging in the balance, will Vixen finally be able to combat the one man who has sought to make her life miserable, or will she succumb and return to the habit that once claimed her life? Can Gino battle the brother he must now call his enemy and come out on top, or will the skeletons he’s buried deep resurface with an unfortunate outcome? With enemies as far as Atlanta and some one cab ride away, the second installment of A Brooklyn Love Affair is certain to shock as well as teach the lesson that some wounds run too deep to close.
