As secrets unravel, Sin learns the people closest to her-friends, lovers, even herself-aren't who they claimed to be. In a world built on lies and survival, trust might be the deadliest mistake.

"She gave me a forever within them numbered days, and I'm grateful" A little over 7 months ago R&B singer Suanii Jefferson entire life changed before her eyes, she had caught the man she thought she'd spend the rest of her life with in bed with another woman. Suanii moves back home to Memphis Tennessee along with her 3 year old son and takes a hiatus from all of her social media accounts. Her fans are left wondering how the woman is doing and where she has been after her life blew up in her face. Ja Morant is a part time father to his 3 year old daughter and a full time player for the Memphis Grizzlies. He is focused on being a father and bettering his craft with limited distractions. He has a healthy relationship with the mother of his child who lives across the world in North Carolina along with his daughter. Suanii finds herself at a basketball game and catches the eye of Memphis Grizzlies star player Ja Morant while sitting court side. He takes it upon himself to pursue the woman despite her decline to his many advances. Suanii's trust in men is broken after what happened to her so how can she trust another man after all that? Ja just wants to care for the woman and she won't let him, how will he respond to her declines?
