Finding Tyrell
The Debut Novel by Deon Jenkins
About The Novel
Finding Tyrell welcomes readers into Novel City, a place where history never stays buried and love rarely comes without a cost. At the center is Tyrell Williams, a man everyone is drawn to for different reasons, not all of them pure. As Greg resurfaces with unfinished business, Khali offers a connection that feels safe but complicated, and Mason moves quietly in the background, carrying secrets tied to loyalty, danger, and survival.
In this world of emotional tension and hidden motives, wanting Tyrell is easy. Knowing him, and surviving what comes with that knowledge, is the real risk.
Meet the Leading Cast
Tyrell Williams
The heart of Novel City.
Tyrell is kind, grounded, and quietly magnetic – the type of man people lean on without realizing how much weight he carries himself. Loyal to a fault and slow to love, Tyrell finds himself caught between friendship, desire, and the fear of choosing wrong. His journey isn’t about chasing love. It’s about learning he’s worthy of it.
Mason Smith
The protector. The survivor.
Mason moves through Novel City with his guard up and his circle tight. Street-smart and disciplined, he believes loyalty is everything until the cost of it starts coming due. As old ties resurface and secrets refuse to stay buried, Mason is forced to confront a question he’s avoided his whole life: how far can you go for the people you love before you lose yourself?
Gregory Moore Jr.
The hidden romantic.
Polished, intelligent, and raised on expectations, Greg has spent years perfecting the art of restraint. What he wants and what he’s been taught to accept are rarely the same. Beneath the composure is a man who loves deeply but has never been allowed to choose freely. Loving Tyrell means risking everything Greg was trained to protect.
Khalistopher Chambers
The emotional truth-teller.
Open-hearted and passionate, Khali loves out loud, even when it hurts. He believes in connection, vulnerability, and showing up fully, but his sensitivity often leaves him exposed in a world that rewards distance. In Novel City, Khali represents the courage it takes to feel deeply, even when love doesn’t come with guarantees.
