I'm catching feelings? for a nigga?? Ain't no way man. Somebody help me.

Elijah has always known who he is. Loved by two fathers, protected, visible, and fearless enough to fight anyone who questions it. Tre, his best friend, has always known too, except his love for Elijah lives in silence, tangled with gang loyalty and a life Elijah was never meant to touch. Then Ty'quan appears. Identical in face but forged by abandonment and survival, Ty'quan is the brother Elijah never knew existed and the proof that one different choice can split a life in two. When Ty'quan is mistaken for Elijah and kidnapped, the mistake ignites a chain of violence that pulls both brothers deeper into the streets. Tonic, a dangerous gang leader, does not just want Ty'quan dead. He wants him close. As obsession tightens and love fractures, Elijah and Tre are forced to confront what their bond really costs, while Ty'quan must decide whether family can save him or if the darkness that recognizes him is the only place he truly belongs. Because sometimes love protects you. And sometimes it is the reason everything burns.

Kion, a hardened gang member, and AJ, a new recruit, find their relationship evolving from simple camaraderie to something deeper. As they navigate their complicated lives, they begin to confront emotions they never expected.

In which, Noah becomes Mar's white boy.

(This my first book and it's lowkey bad) With Jayvion's Mom always in and out the hospital, he was always at her bestfriend's house. With Jayvion and Armani always being around each other, they became bestfriends. Soon or later feelings get involved...

Everybody knew they were too close. The late-night calls, the jealousy, the lingering touches, the way they always found their way back to each other. But when feelings start turning into something neither of them can ignore, their entire friend group begins to notice what they've been trying not to admit. Maybe it wasn't just friendship after all. Maybe it had always been you.

"You're crazy" "Yea, about you" Follow the journey of Mire and Craze.

In the East Side Gang, Amir just so happens to be King's favorite.

Darius and Malachi have hated each other for as long as they can remember, only tolerating one another because of Shawn-Malachi's boyfriend and Darius's best friend since middle school. Malachi has always known Shawn isn't exactly loyal, but leaving him has never been that simple. So if Shawn can play games, why can't he? The problem is the one person Malachi ends up breaking his own rules with is Darius. It's supposed to be simple-no feelings, no strings, and Shawn can never find out.

You my whole life Mazi... I love you Samir ...
