Book 1 Two of the most biggest rival gangs in New York have been around for decades. There is one member named Kasey who has his eyes on an opposing gang member, Gee who is the co-leader of his own gang. A lot of street code starts to be broken. If anybody finds out about this- especially Gee's brother who runs the whole gang, everything could go to shit real fast. They try their best to avoid it all until a new upcoming Mexican gang comes into town and starts ruining everything for both gangs. Will they make both gangs come together to take down the rising gang, or will everything fall apart?

Zacari Smith is loud, reckless, and magnetic - the type who knows exactly how to get under your skin and smile while doing it. Ky'Aire Brown is the complete opposite - quiet, sharp-tongued, and always ten steps ahead of his emotions. They weren't friends. They weren't anything... until one day turned into something more. Neither of them is looking for love especially not with each other. But the pull between them is undeniable. What starts as tension builds into something they can't explain, and definitely can't escape. As secrets surface and tempers flare, Zacari and Kyaire are forced to confront the truth: sometimes the person you least expect is the one who sees you the clearest. Set in a world of messy friendships, hidden feelings, and chaotic senior year moments,Nepenthe is a raw, slow-burn story about falling hard, fighting it harder, and what happens when love refuses to play by the rules.

Zymir has loved Israel longer than he'll ever admit. He never yells at him. Never stays mad. Never lets him get hurt. But what happens when the streets catch up, secrets spill, and love can't stay unspoken forever.

The shift forces Tripp to sit with emotions he's long ignored, revealing that denial can only last so long before the truth demands to be seen.
