"Fighting to keep us together, hope it's worth a try." An hbcu love story

❝ sugarcoated, lies unfolded, you still lick the wrapper.❞

Kendrick has never been the man that onlookers routed for. They just watch, judge, and whisper... shouting for his success but praying on his downfall. Now in the spotlight of the NFL, his name carries weight, money and a clingy girlfriend he can't outrun. Macie has spent years learning how to exist in a world that never made her feel soft enough, pretty enough, or chosen first. She's done fighting to fit in with the societies expectations. When the two collide tension is thick and neither of them are ready for it. Kendrick made her feel unwanted and she could never forget the way it affected her. Once lines blur, their loyalty is tested , and they have to figure out if their disloyal actions are worth the chaos it created. This story isn't to repaint Kendrick in the light of redemption, but to give clear insight on why he is the man he is today, and unapologetically.

THIS IS A SEQUEL TO BAMBI🤎 READ BEFORE READING THIS BOOK! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "We made for each other Z.... No matter what we do... shit... we stuck but if the wrong people find out we broke that contract..." "What?" I look at him and he's already looking at me. "One of us gonna get hurt... and the last thing imma do is let you get hurt" we look at each other and I feel emotions run through me like a tsunami. "Why?" "Because we born into this fucking mess. We ain't do nothing for it to happen... we were born into this shit" he takes a hit and I grab his jaw before he blows it into my mouth. I inhale it before blowing it out into the cold air. "You love me?" I ask nervously. "Always" "And forever" I lean my head on his shoulder.
