Polarity

She's mourning the love of her life. He's grieving the best friend he failed to protect. Falling for each other was never part of the healing process… but somehow it became it.

Amarah Brooks

"I used to think love made life make sense. Then the man I loved was murdered. Now every part of my life feels split down the middle. Public grief and private devastation. Appearing strong but breaking every day. 

The world remembers Isaac Brooks as a revolutionary rapper, a cultural voice, a man larger than life. But to me? He was my husband, my peace, and my home. And now everyone keeps looking at me like I'm something fragile.

Everyone… except Jamar.

He was Isaac's bodyguard. His foster brother. The man who's always gotten under my skin in the worst ways. Jamar doesn't treat me delicately. Doesn't soften his words around me. Doesn't look at me with pity in his eyes. Instead, he frustrates me. Challenges me. Sees me too clearly. And somehow, in the middle of all this grief, he becomes the only thing making me feel alive again.

But how do I move forward… when the man pulling me back to life belonged to the man I'm still trying to mourn?"

Jamar "Stone" Cole

"I was supposed to protect him.

That thought's been eating me alive since the night Isaac died. People knew him as a rapper. A visionary. The voice of a generation. But to me? Isaac was just… family. The first person who ever made space for me in this harsh ass world. And now he's gone because I wasn't there when he needed me most.

Which is why I should stay far away from his wife, Amarah.

She deserves better than a man like me anyway. I'm too angry. Too damaged. And way to used to finding comfort in women, smoke, and silence.

But grief has a way of pulling people together when they should probably stay apart.

The more time I spend around her, the harder it becomes to ignore what's happening between us. Because Amarah doesn't just remind me of Isaac… she makes me feel understood in a way I never have before.

And no matter how wrong this feels, losing her feels worse."

According to the law of polarity, opposites are identical in nature, different only in degree.

Love and grief. Desire and guilt. Healing and heartbreak.

What happens when two people connected by devastating loss discover that the very thing pulling them apart may also be the only thing capable of putting them back together again?

Polarity is a standalone and book one in the Love is Cure, Vol. 2 – Laws & Love series, an interconnected eight-book journey exploring the universal laws through love, loss, healing, and human connection. Rhythm is next…
