Original erotic fiction. Power, intimacy, consequence.

Powerhouse Novelas is the home of original erotic fiction driven by power, intimacy, and the cost of desire.

This is where the stories live.

The novels and episodic series published here are not allegories or morality plays. They do not explain themselves or offer lessons neatly wrapped in hindsight. They unfold slowly, accumulate consequence, and allow characters to make decisions that cannot be undone.

Powerhouse stories are interested in what people do when love, ambition, loyalty, sex, and fear collide—when devotion becomes leverage, when lust becomes strategy, when tenderness becomes a liability. They move through marriage, infidelity, power exchange, domination, submission, and the quieter ways people betray themselves long before they betray each other.

This Substack is fiction-first. You will find serialized arcs designed to be followed over time, and episodic novellas that arrive as contained storms—self-sufficient, but never weightless. Reading here is immersive and cumulative. Attention is rewarded.

Enter if you like your desire honest, your endings earned, and your characters unwilling to stay clean.

Powerhouse Novelas is created by Monica Craiyon and a team of Black and Afro-Latina writers, editors, and storytellers invested in what power actually looks like when it moves through desire, silence, and consequence. The questions that drive this fiction are examined from other angles in Monica’s cultural and political commentary on Monica Craiyon. The two spaces share a spine. They do not share a form. Commentary lives there. Here, the work speaks for itself.
