"You aint shit, just like the other nigga"

NBA star Jalen Knox has it all-talent, fame, and a playboy reputation that won't quit. When bad press threatens his career, his agent turns to a risky fix: fake dating. Enter Renee Porter, a fresh PR rep just starting her dream job. Pretending to be the perfect couple was supposed to clean up his image, but soon staged dates, late-night texts, and stolen glances start to blur the line between business and real feelings. With paparazzi watching, messy exes resurfacing, and careers on the line, one question remains: can love survive when it starts with a lie?

A journalist is investigating gang corruption and violence within the city. She seeks out different sources, interviewing some of the most ruthless gang members and men with blood on their hands, ultimately putting herself in harms way just to get answers. But one thing about the streets - they don't like intrusion. As she leans in too close, she doesn't realize that a pair of eyes have been on her all along. And when she's abducted one night by a masked figure, she finally realizes that her job isn't worth her life. She's kept hostage in a warehouse, stripped of all contact to the outside world. Her captor keeps his identity hidden by that same mask, only allowing her to hear his voice. Little does she know, he's been paid to take her. However, he isn't doing this for the money. He's doing it because she's his prized possession. The jewel of his eye that he wants to keep safe. He's been lurking in the shadows, just waiting for the right time to get his hands on her. What started out as a small crush has now turned into a full blown infatuation. So when he's given the opportunity to go through with the scheme, he's all for it. Hoping that he can ultimately prove his love to her, despite the uncanny circumstances. COVER & PLOT BY -LAYSDIARY
