Deeply Loved Bayou: Simone & Nala's Story (The BR Bayou Series)

Everyone knows Simone "Simi" Teagues not only as one of the top-ranked WNBA players in the league but also as the Baton Rouge Bayou’s resident pretty girl, and she leans into it. She’s flirty, outgoing and has no problem attracting the attention of others…both good and bad. Even though she’s constantly being labeled as a player in the media and mocked for how her last relationship turned out, those around her know how kind and loving she really is. When she’s not busy being a superstar, she’s busy being a third parent to her younger brother, Bash and has no time for much else. That is until she lays eyes on the new private chef, Nala Haney. She’s instantly drawn to Nala and knows from the first time they kiss that this is the woman she wants to spend the rest of her life with.

Anala “Nala” Haney has always been soft-spoken and introverted, but when it comes to cooking, she’s a totally different person. She worked hard for years to get to the top of her profession and all of that hard work finally seems worth it when she lands a position as the private chef for her favorite WNBA team, the Baton Rouge Bayou. She’s excited to be able to spend more time around her favorite team, but more importantly, this opportunity gives her a chance to meet her favorite player, Simone Teagues. She doesn’t expect much, maybe just friendly conversations here and there. Little does she know, Simone is interested in more than just a few conversations.

This story is a fast-paced one. It’s instantly steamy and passionate, full of love, family drama, and jealous exes and friends. However, Simone and Nala know what they want, and there is nothing and no one that can stand in the way of their happy ending.
