Nia Carter did everything "right"?hosted the dinners, smiled for the photos, wore the ring like a promise she couldn't break. Marcus, Atlanta's favorite golden son, did everything else?women, secrets, and a luxury hideaway stacked with cash, lies, and a little red recording light that never blinked.
When anonymous notes slip under Nia's door and a photo lands on her pillow, the perfect picture shatters. Dante?the loyal friend with dangerous patience?and Andre?the bartender who treats her like a person, not a prop?pull her toward choices that taste like freedom and fallout.
Then a night in the secret apartment detonates: a woman hurt, a knife flashing, and Marcus on the floor while the city sharpens its teeth. Headlines crown him a saint and cast Nia as the villain. Courtrooms, cameras, and family turn her grief into a spectacle.
Tainted Vows is a raw, fast-burning urban drama about love that curdles, power that poisons, and a woman who learns survival isn't pretty?but it's still survival. When the dust settles and the city moves on, Nia stands alone at the grave with one truth left: she'll rise?but the scars are coming with her.
