" I heard about guys like you ? But I hate to break it to you baby this won't end how you think it will ."

And what if yusef finally met his match ? How will everything unfold when yusef feels he's losing the last of the family he has ? Find out in Riot ...

With both of them being in the spotlight and having their moves monitored, will they have the peaceful life they once talked about or will people succeed in being involved in their relationship? Find out......

"No, you ain't perfect but you worth it."

Essence Marie Jones is seventeen and already tired of being strong. In a house filled with empty bottles and louder silence, she's learned how to survive-balancing school, exhaustion, and the responsibility of raising her two-year-old sister, Love. Her parents are present in body but absent in every way that matters, leaving Essence to grow up faster than she ever should have. Sincere Amazi Banks comes from a world that taught him love is earned through pain. Older, guarded, and shaped by the streets, he's spent his life believing survival is the only thing promised to people like him. Dreams were a luxury he couldn't afford-until Essence. When their lives collide, what begins as quiet understanding turns into something dangerous: hope. But loving each other comes with consequences, and in a world where everything has a cost, they must decide how much they're willing to lose to hold on to each other. Because some love stories don't ask for your heart. They ask for everything.

Kerria Love Banks has built her life around faith. Church is her sanctuary, prayer is her language, and God is the constant she trusts when the world feels uncertain. Loving deeply and believing fiercely has always come naturally to her. Kesani Amari Bennett doesn't believe in God-not after a childhood where religion was used to excuse pain, and not after losing the one person who ever made him feel safe. Raised by survival and hardened by loss, Kesani trusts actions over promises and keeps his heart guarded behind a life he knows is dangerous. When their worlds collide, faith and skepticism meet in the most unexpected way. Drawn to each other despite their differences, Kerria and Kesani fall into a love that challenges everything they thought they knew-about God, about healing, and about what it means to truly be seen. But love doesn't erase trauma, and belief doesn't come without questions. As their relationship deepens, the tension between faith and pain threatens to pull them apart, forcing them to confront whether love can exist where belief does not.
