not your typical love story.

Can your perspective on love change, or is it something that should stay the same? "Fuck all you niggas, all men are cheaters!" "Fuck all you hoes, everybody ani't shit!" "I love LOVE, an I'm waiting on my soulmate," "I believe in Love, but just not for me," Every one's perspective on love is different, but this story is about... Two people with opposite perspectives on love, come together, and complete change the way they perceive what love is...

When Kiki visits Chicago for her cousin's wedding, she never expects to get piped down by a man who talks with his hands and growls her name like he own it. Messiah ain't like these New York dudes she's used to-he move different. Ain't loud, ain't flashy, but got that hood alpha energy that make her melt. She was supposed to be there for five days max... not fall in love with a Chi-Town gangsta who flips bricks and lifts her like she weightless. But when her past follows her to Chicago and his street life bleeds into their sex-fueled situationship, the line between love and lust starts to blur. He never chased women-especially not loud, sex-crazy, no-nonsense New York ones. But Kiki? She got him talkin' about "what we is" and pressin' her spot like he tryna build a future. But love between two people who been hurt don't come easy. And in a city full of secrets, money, and murder? Somebody always gotta pay.
