This book follows straight on from the conversation were Charisma ended the relationship with Keegan.
Keegan is trying to deal with his loss.
It is a race against time to find Chloe alive.
Charlotte gives birth and there is a problem that the family...
Charisma was seeing to Tao and getting him changed. She heard the doorbell and she carried her son down with her to see who it was. She noticed through the window that Keegan's Ghost was in the drive. She opened the door. He looked at her. "Are you okay..."
She nodded. "You haven't spoken to me for a week...
"Well, I've been busy... my uncle died.."
"Keegan don't be an ass!... why are you being like this?.."
"Hmm.. let me see... you almost had another fuckin' heart scare when you found out he was dead... you felt him, which means you were connected to him...
"As you already knew!." She snapped. "Yes I felt the pain of losing a man that I loved dearly... but he was my friend more than anything... and all he wanted in the end was for me and you to get right!." She told him. "I've been left here grieving by myself, while all of you... ALL OF YOU..." she yelled and accentuated. "Went over to LA like I was no one... not part of the family... you left me again Keegan.." she shook her head.
He went quiet. "I froze.. I saw how you were and all I could see was you and him, and you wishing deep down that you were with him." He said.

"After everything we've been through... if I really wanted to be with Nash in a relationship sense... I would have been, don't you think!." She said harshly. "But I'm not because I chose you... and it was an easy choice, because I love you... you're my partner for life.. he was my mentor, my friend and yes I did love him... but not in sexual way..." she shook her head. "You make me sick sometimes you know that..."
Keegan went after her and pulled her to face him, "C.. I'm sorry.. I just lose my mind when it comes to you... I will start thinking before I act.. and you are part of this family... you're my family and I love you..."
Charisma rested against his chest, "I just can't believe that he's gone you know...
"Me either... and I shouldn't have just walked out on you and left you to go through it by yo self... that was selfish of me..."
"How was Lena and the others?."
"The whole family came together it was cool to see all of his kids and grand kids, my cousins and second cousins... it felt good to see that no matter what people thought of him he held his kids very close to him." He said.
"And that is what I love about you... you're like him in that way.. only we're together and that means our kids get the best of both of us...at all times." She said. She was disguising how hurt her heart was, but she loved Keegan as her husband and she wanted this with them to now work and had done for a long time, her husband was her life. "Do you want me to fix you something to eat?." She asked him.
"Naw, I'm good... There was another knock on the door as he spoke and he turned to open it to see Mia and Isaiah standing there. "You two can be as creepy as fuck you know that...
