Byron & Valerie

by Nastascia Fletcher, Nastascia Fletcher (Editor), Sarah Ferrari (Illustrator)

Overview

An assault on a dreadful night brought into this world the most precious thing to Valerie, her daughter. But the struggle is real when she is the only thing shielding her baby from the world's evils. When Byron shows up, promising a world of worriless bliss, Valerie realizes he is a threat to her heart, and even though he brings out the good in her, she is no fool to be comforted by promises–especially from a man. But when Peyton is taken away from Valerie, she has no choice but to put her trust in Byron, and she must learn to let go of all the hurt and pain she's known before–especially following the arrival of the man who assaulted her four years ago.

About the Author

As a child, I have always been fascinated with relationships. Growing up, I continued to understand the importance of familial and romantic relationships and how they help shape a person. At the same time, I wished I could see more of the relationships I saw around me in the media or books; black women and black men falling in love. But when I saw that there wasn’t much representation, I decided to create it myself.

My company was founded on the premise of sharing black ‘Happily Ever Afters.’ A wildly underrepresented reality that we rarely see on tv, not nearly enough in books, TV shows, or even movies. Stories that weren’t built upon toxicity or negative stereotypes, just two people–or several people, going through the motions of falling in love. And in that process, I share a deep part of me that believes in true love. Because it does exist, and it exists for all shades of people.
