Side Effects

Karma never forgets — and she always collects. In Side Effects, the first book in The Karmatic Way Series, four women discover that the consequences of the past don't stay buried — they resurface, demand answers, and change everything. Treesy Sands, a successful business owner, carries the weight of family tragedy and buried secrets. Her twin, Twinkle Sands, battles failing eyesight and a fractured bond, clinging to hope that experimental surgery can mend more than her vision. Luci Packens, desperate for her mother's love, longs for the connection she was denied. And Tracy Wright, a foster child turned undercover IRS agent, must confront her past to protect her future. Bound by secrets, fractured relationships, and unspoken truths, each woman is navigating her own battle for survival, clarity, and control. As hidden connections emerge and long-standing choices begin to take their toll, loyalty is tested, trust erodes, and the weight of karma becomes impossible to ignore. Blending urban street fiction with layered mystery and powerful character-driven storytelling, Side Effects explores how actions ripple through families, friendships, and love — often revealing uncomfortable truths along the way. The journey is emotional, messy, and deeply human, where growth comes at a cost and healing isn't guaranteed. Because karma doesn't rush — she waits. And when she comes, there are always side effects.
