Have you ever experienced the profound loss of a parent, followed by the heart-wrenching betrayal of your own family for circumstances beyond your control?
Yeah, well, 9 years ago that happened to me and my younger sister. I was so angry at them, and if I'm being frank, I was frustrated at my mother and sister as well. My father had been my person. The one I turned to on good days, bad days, and days in between. And for one day to just lose him out of nowhere, hurt more than I can put into words.
What cut even deeper was the betrayal by his own family—people I had known and loved my entire life—who callously stripped us of everything we had and then tried to rationalize their actions.
I felt lost, alone, and consumed by a desire for retribution. In that darkness, Solaris James was born.
At first, she was only meant to be a vessel for my pain and anger. NEVER was she meant to become someone for people to read. But year after year, I kept finding my way back to her. Somehow, she was no longer telling stories of my desire for vengeance, but of her own. Solaris James became her own person with her own past and her own pain.
And eventually, her story emerged.
Nothing Sweeter is book 1 in the Better Than Revenge Duology. It is a dark romance with taboo themes and topics.
