Him:
I’ve never claimed to be a good man. My empire stands on power, fear, and the streets of New Jersey that raised me. Money, respect, women—I’ve had it all, but none of it mattered after I lost her. Heaven Lee was my light in a dark world, my weakness, the only one who ever made me crave more than the life I built in the shadows. Now that she’s back, I’ll do whatever it takes to keep her. She’s mine, and no one—not the feds, my enemies, or the chaos in my world—will take her from me. Even if it means making her my wife, I’ll protect her at all costs because, without her, nothing else matters.

Her:
Loving a man like Turnpike Mike isn’t easy. It’s a risk, a gamble that comes with heartbreak, betrayal, and the kind of pain that can break a woman in two. I’ve been through hell, and I swore I’d never fall again. But then Mike walked back into my life, offering more than just a second chance—he offered me a way out. A dangerous promise wrapped in a love so raw and addictive, it makes me forget all the warnings and red flags. He’s the thrill I can’t resist, the danger I can’t stay away from.
Falling for a man like Mike means walking the line between heaven and heartbreak. It’s the kind of love that gives you butterflies so deep they feel like they’ll consume you, even as it threatens to tear your world apart.

This isn’t a fairytale—it’s an obsession. It’s insanity. It’s love in its rawest, most dangerous form.

If you’re a fan of African American romance, gritty drug dealer love stories, and the thrilling highs and devastating lows of forbidden love, "The Wife of Turnpike Mike" will steal your heart and leave you breathless.
