About the Book
He doesn't remember the woman he loved. She doesn't trust the man who abandoned her. Their daughter has eyes that could get them all killed.
Desmond Hayes is a brilliant surgeon who built his career on tearing Black women down. After a humiliating public debate loss and a cheating scandal, he drowns his sorrows in a Las Vegas hotel bar—where a woman with knowing eyes challenges him to a staring contest he won't remember.
Fifteen months later, a baby with striking violet eyes appears on his doorstep.
The mother is Tiffany—a biochemist carrying her deceased father's research. She is brilliant, guarded, and dying. Her violet eyes are not a curse, but a marker of a supernatural bloodline tied to a century-old massacre. Her breastmilk is the only thing preventing their daughter from developing the same rare cancer that is slowly killing her.
When Desmond's ex-girlfriend discovers the truth, she unleashes a violent attack that ruptures Tiffany's tumor. In a desperate surgery, Desmond gives Tiffany his own blood—unknowingly transferring the antibodies that could save her life.
But before he can discover the truth, they are both kidnapped by the White Lily Organization—a secret network that has been hunting people with violet eyes for over a century.
Violet is a supernatural thriller about a man who must learn to trust the woman he cannot remember loving, a woman who must risk everything to protect the child she thought she had lost, and a family that will stop at nothing to destroy them both.
