A Love Worth Hiding: Memorial Day meant to remember the brave—she found the bravest kind of love.
Anika Jade
In a town where whispered judgment hides behind every smile, Etta Mae Johnson keeps her head down, her heart quiet, and her desires locked away. Until a soldier walks into her life—and changes everything.
Corporal Luca Moretti is just passing through… or so he says. Tall, olive-skinned, and sharp in his uniform, he looks at Etta like she’s not just beautiful—she’s unforgettable. Their attraction is forbidden, undeniable, and far too dangerous to name.
⚠️ One kiss turns into a secret night.
🔥 One night turns into a love worth risking everything for.
💔 But in the Deep South, a Black woman loving a White soldier is more than scandal—it’s a threat.
As the town watches, the danger grows. But Etta won’t hide who she is. Not her softness. Not her courage. Not her love.
Steamy, emotional, and powerfully romantic, A Love Worth Hiding is a tender Memorial Day love story filled with stolen kisses, soul-deep passion, and the kind of bravery that blooms in the dark.
For readers who believe love—no matter how forbidden—deserves to be seen. 💋🕊️
