Heaven Sent Me a Hood Hero

After the Ball Dropped

Five years after everything changed, Jett and her unconventional family have finally found their rhythm in New York City. Life feels calm. Normal. Almost too normal.

But just when things settle, a surprise hits that threatens to shake up everything they’ve built.

As Naz steps back into a normal life, Jett is forced to face what love really looks like now—messy, evolving, and tied to choices that don’t come easy. Between family, loyalty, and unfinished business, the past isn’t done with them yet.

Heaven Sent Me a Hood Hero: After the Ball Dropped is a short, heartfelt novella about love that survives, families that don’t fit the mold, and what happens when the future refuses to stay predictable.
