Derek Chatman writes stories about power, loyalty, desire, and the price people pay to get what they want. Raised between South Jamaica Queens and Roosevelt, Long Island, Derek draws inspiration from the environments that shaped him—places where respect is earned, ambition is dangerous, and loyalty can mean the difference between survival and destruction. He is the creator of the Southside Kings Series, a gritty urban crime saga set in South Jamaica Queens, where power is taken, alliances are fragile, and betrayal can change everything overnight. The series pulls readers into a world of brotherhood, ambition, and the constant battle to control the streets before they control you. Derek also explores the darker side of passion in What She Left on My Tongue: Pleasure Has a Memory, an intense romance about attraction, control, temptation, and the kind of connection that leaves a lasting mark long after the moment is over. Known for cinematic storytelling, intense characters, and emotionally charged tension, Derek blends urban crime, romance, suspense, and psychological drama into stories that feel raw, powerful, and unforgettable. His characters live in worlds where power is seductive, loyalty is tested, and every decision carries consequences.
