Miranda Cole has spent years loving Zaire Hayes from a safe distance.

As her brother’s best friend, Zaire has always been close enough to want but completely off-limits. Miranda learned a long time ago how to keep her feelings to herself—even if letting them go was never an option.

But after a championship win lands them under the same roof for a week in the Bahamas, distance is no longer on her side.

Zaire knows some lines shouldn’t be crossed. Miranda has already spent enough time waiting. And one week in paradise might be all it takes to find out if some things are worth the risk.

TK Fletcher is a Louisiana-based indie author who writes Black romance and romantic suspense. Her love for storytelling began in high school during the Wattpad days, where writing became a creative outlet long before she considered becoming a published author.

After losing her mother in 2025, TK decided it was time to stop keeping her stories to herself and share them with the world. She made her author debut in April 2026 with Worth the Risk.

TK writes about Black love in all its forms, with stories filled with complicated relationships, family, humor, real-life conversations, a little drama, and plenty of spice. Her characters aren’t perfect. They make mistakes, grow, fall in love, and figure life out along the way.

Outside of writing, TK holds multiple degrees and is a proud member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.
