O knihe

Mostly celebrated for his poignant and evocative poetry, JonKeL takes a bold leap into the realm of fiction with his debut novelette, Wedding Bands and Bullets. Known for his ability to distill raw emotion and complex themes into compelling verse, JonKeL now weaves a gripping narrative that explores love, betrayal, and the unyielding grip of consequence. This first leap into fiction promises to captivate readers with its blend of heartfelt prose and razor-sharp storytelling, proving that JonKeL's talent transcends genres. Joan Harper has always been driven-fiercely ambitious, endlessly hardworking, and unstoppable in her rise through the corporate ranks. As one of the few African American women executives in Miami's competitive marketing industry, she's built her success with grit and talent, defying both stereotypes and doubters. But with her latest promotion to a corner office, Joan's achievements are met with more than envy; they're met with suspicion, gossip, and whispered accusations. To her male colleagues, her success is a threat, and they're determined to see her fall. Enter Russell "Russ" Jones, a private investigator with a past as complex as his cases. A retired military man from Harlem with a sharp eye and even sharper instincts, Russ is hired to tail Joan and uncover the secrets they're sure she's hiding. What starts as a simple job soon grows tangled, as Russ finds himself questioning the motives behind his assignment, unraveling layers of jealousy, betrayal, and ambition that go far beyond Joan's career. This urban tale explores the cost of success, the weight of suspicion, and the lengths people will go to protect-or destroy-a reputation. For Joan, the challenges are more personal than ever, as she confronts not just her colleagues' vendettas, but the question of what happens when the consequences of your actions catch up to you.
