What It’s About
Naomi St. James has spent years becoming the kind of wife people envy. She’s polished, beautiful, and married into one of Bellerose’s most respected families, but behind all that perfection is a woman who has learned to make herself smaller to keep her life intact.
When her husband cheats, Naomi is forced to face the truth she’s been avoiding: she may have built an entire life around being chosen by a man who never really loved her.
Alex Bennett is nothing like the world Naomi married into. She’s a baker with her own dreams, her own rules, and a way of making Naomi feel seen without having to perform. What starts as a small comfort slowly becomes the one place Naomi doesn’t have to pretend.
Sugar & Spite is a Black sapphic romance about love, revenge, reinvention, and two women choosing honesty, joy, and each other over the lives they were told to want.
