Meet Kyeate, author of "Once Upon a Hood Love"

In 2008, after the death of her daughter's father, she used writing as a grieving mechanism. Already being an avid reader of urban fiction from greats such as Keisha Ervin, Kiki Swinson, Teri Woods, and Nikki Turner, she tried her hand and started writing short stories.

After years of nesting her talent, she decided to share her work in short stories on social media. With enough encouragement, she self-published her first book This Can’t Be Love: Nadia’s Story, where she made her debut into the writing world with her independent release,  touching on the issue of domestic violence. After independently releasing four more titles, she found a publishing home under the leadership of urban best-selling author, Mz. Lady P.

In 2017, after joining Mz. Lady P Presents, she released her first series under the company A Savage and His Lady. With consistent releases, Kyeate has a total of eight books under MLPP.
With no plans on stopping anytime soon, Kyeate has high hopes of becoming a best selling author.

About her book, "Once upon a Hood Love"

Tendaji “Ten” Scott is a beast in the streets and not the most desirable thing to look at. As a teen, he was teased and bullied for his skin condition which only gave him the fuel to come out on top. Roles are reversed and his presence alone will put fear in your heart. His rudeness and blatant disrespect will make you think twice about crossing him.

When The Murphy’s come to Tendaji for help he doesn’t hesitate to offer his hand. It’s time to pay up and the games begin. Not being the one to play about his money, Tendaji confiscate’s the family’s business and their most prized possession, their beautiful daughter I’Kenna.

I’Kenna might be young but doesn’t possess the fear everyone else seems to have for Tendaji. Her slick mouth just keeps them going back and forth like cats and dogs.

Tendaji has a secret from his past that draws him to I’Kenna in a desirable way, but does I’Kenna feel the same? With the both of them going through the motions, can Tendaji take I’Kenna from hostage to Mrs. or will I’Kenna finally see the beast everyone says Tendaji is?
