Ja and Dess had been inseparable from the moment they met in college. What started as a friendship quickly ignited into a love neither of them saw coming. They were young-perhaps too young to understand the weight of what they truly had. Then Ja's betrayals shattered everything. For Dess, walking away was the only way to save herself. For Ja, losing her sent him spiraling into a world of regret, excess, and self-destruction. Now, five years later, fate has brought them back to the same crossroads, caught between what was and what still might be. When their paths cross once more, old wounds resurface, and the weight of unspoken words lingers between them. Dess has built a life without Ja-one that doesn't revolve around heartbreak and second chances. She has convinced herself she has moved on. Ja has moved on, too-at least in some ways. He's a father now. His daughter, Kaari, is the one pure, beautiful thing to come from the years he spent trying to be with someone else. But he never loved Kaari's mother the way he loved Dess. He couldn't. Because even after five years, after all the mistakes and all the time lost between them, Dess still owns his heart in a way no one else ever could. In this sequel to Wrong Kind Of Right, Ja and Dess find themselves questioning: Is love ever truly lost, or does it simply leave behind pieces-residuals of what once was, waiting for the right time to find its way back?

ATTENTION: YOU MUST READ FRESHMEN YEAR FIRST! Freshly new nineteen year old, Shai Carter, is back with even more madness. Entering his sophomore year of college, Shai returns with an "I don't care" attitude that surely raises some eyebrows and stirs up unnecessary conflict. Matters become worse when his mother, Allison, tries to find her way back into his life. He didn't know her true intentions for being back or whether she was going to stay around for once. He did know one thing surely, he wasn't going to allow anyone or anything interrupt his ongoing peace of mind. He was staying true to himself, avoiding all drama and bullcrap that people could possibly pull on him. That included the ones he loved. But drama seems to always find him. She didn't think her second year would be like this but it was something. Eighteen year old, Desdemona Young, came back with a fresh new demeanor and confidence. She was claiming this year as hers with no drama. At least, that's what she thought. With the drastically new unpleasant attitudes and people that's been lingering around, Dess wasn't sure if she could handle relationships, school, and her social life all at once. There was one thing she made sure of, life had its ups and downs, but it's up to the person to continue the fight. Would she be willingly to continue when all things fail? Model. Wife. Entrepreneur. Allison Carter-Williams had many talents and skills. But, one that she lacked was being a mother. Missing majority of Shai's life placed a barrier between mother and son that was too hard to piece back together. But with free time this new year, she was using it wisely. Somewhat. With the thoughts of wanting to patch things up with her son, Allison is met with multiple never-ending issues and halts in her mission. She just wanted one thing...a relationship with her child, but that seemed too impossible with secrets and lies she's still holding to. October 18, 2023 - August 22, 2024
