Murder and mayhem, lying and cheating, and one PI trying to sort it all out Take a ride in private investigator Emmett Naoki’s car while he chases down cheating spouses, finds missing persons, and untangles complicated murders faster than anyone else. He might not like having sidekicks, but he hasn’t gotten rid of his yet! David Wright digs up clues right by Emmet’s side. It’s fine, Emmett is totally not still into David. That was over back in high school! Find a Man, Don’t Settle Down Cheating exes, missing exes, and former crushes There are few things in this world that private investigator Emmett Naoki loves. His job and the business he’s built, OWL Investigations, are his biggest passion. Then there’s sleeping in and working alone, but he isn’t getting much of either these days. His hates are similarly specific. He despises his gift—or curse, depends on how you look at it—of always being hit with the truth right in the face. He loathes smug bastards who used to make him feel unwanted as a teen. Yet he’s hired their king, David Wright, as his sidekick. In Emmett’s defense, he was drunk at the time. At the top of his hate list are liars and cheaters. They’re the lowest of the low. So why exactly has Emmet agreed to help cheating ex no.1, Byron, to find backstabbing—and now missing—ex no.2, Chris? Especially since the cops think nothing’s amiss. It’s Murder on the Catwalk More lying, more cheating, more blasts from the past. With a side of murder. Just when Emmett thought he was done with exes with a thing for backstabbing, another one falls in his lap. Not his ex, for once. No, this one belongs to Emmett’s new partner at OWL Investigations and former—okay, maybe current—crush, David. The bad news? Shirou is here to stay and piss off Emmett for the foreseeable future. Why David doesn’t kick him out, Emmett will never know. The worst news? Emmett can’t stop thinking about the kiss he’s shared with David. There’s good news, sort of. Emmett gets to travel to a seaside resort in Turkey to investigate a suspicious death. Too bad he must go back to his modeling roots to find the killer! Leave Me, Baby, One More Time Sidekicks are so much trouble! Especially when you have a soft spot for them. And they’re suspected of murder.

Coretha writes personally and openly about some of the deep secrets, abuse, and pain in life she encountered growing up as a child. There wasn't much positive guidance shown from Coretha's family at all. She grew up basically making decisions for herself and fending for herself. She became pregnant at an early age by a man who was twice her age. She heard nothing but negative comments from her family members, saying that she was going to be a teen dropout from high school, who lives on welfare assistance. She was persistent and determined to not need her family for anything when it came to raising her kids. She also went through sexual abuse and physical abuse from members of her family. She blamed herself in many ways, that there could have been something she could have done to stop the abuse from happening. Instead of being protected by her family members, she heard gossiping, and her so-called family tried to keep her silent. Even though she grew up in church as a child, she began to feel like God had betrayed her. She felt lost in the world and not protected. She became promiscuous as an adolescent. She enjoyed partying, sex, and dating hustler men. Despite her lifestyle, there wasn't anything she wouldn't do for her kids. At times, she held down two jobs at a time, just to make sure that her kids were straight. For years, Coretha thought that she wouldn't find that special someone to love her for her, and she did. Black was her everything. He treated her like a queen and gave her security and unconditional love. But that had soon come to an end when Black was killed. The pain she felt was unbearable. She was lost and became deeply depressed. "God, why did you have to take him away from me so soon? I will never be the same."
