Sa'Lani Monee Jeffries has always been the thick girl who gets overlooked or played. At 27, she's done with love, focused on stacking her money as a nail tech and minding her business. But when a fine, chocolate, six-foot-three gangsta with a low voice and dangerous reputation starts showing up at her job, all of that changes. Kaizer "Kai" Rashaad Wynn isn't the type of man she ever wanted. He's quiet, mean to everybody but her, and runs the streets with a heavy hand. Yet when he looks at her like she's the only woman in the world, Sa'Lani finds herself letting her guard down piece by piece. What starts as playful flirting turns into late-night phone calls, expensive gifts, and nights that leave her body aching for more. But falling for a man like Kai means stepping into a world of hood politics, jealous exes, and enemies who will use anything-including her-to get to him. When street drama hits too close to home, Sa'Lani is forced to decide if she can love a man who lives by a code that could get him killed... or if loving him will be the very thing that breaks her heart. Because Kai doesn't just want her body-he wants all of her. And when a real gangsta falls in love with a thick girl, he ain't letting go, no matter who has to get out of the way.

Navy [NAY-VEE]: the branch of the military that conducts operations overseas. Sin [SEN]: an immoral act considered to be a transgression against divine law. ୨ৎ ୨ৎ ୨ৎ The daughter of Luciano and Serenity Rossi, Tiana Lucia Rossi. She's older. Stronger. Smarter. And she's a painful experience. When the girl sets her eyes onto something she wants she doesn't stop until she gets it. No matter who she has to bribe, manipulate, or seduce. She wanted her body guard who was way too old for her. Even if that meant she had to risk putting him in danger, she didn't think she'd want him long anyway. Everett Leon Hayes. The ex Navy seal now renounced bodyguard. Usually he was brooding, self-controlled, and nonchalant; however, a certain girl sparks a change. Usually he keeps his temptations to himself, especially if that temptation is as sinful as a girl who is not only the pride of one of his closest friends but the heart of a man as powerful as Luciano. But she's just too sinful to resist. ୨ৎ ୨ৎ ୨ৎ "How about we negotiate a deal?" Tiana lifted her chin up high and held her chest out confidently. I let my scared right eyebrow raise up. "Whatever you just conjured up into that evil mind of yours is a no." "Clearly you don't know just how evil this mind of mine can get. She can be very persuasive." ୨ৎ ୨ৎ ୨ৎ Leaving Papa's side never felt so rewarding to Tiana until it translated to being locked away with a hot 6'6 bodyguard who was strict and had huge biceps. She set her sights on him young. 17 to be exact. He was 28 and very full of wisdom and life lessons. He even had time for the military. But that didn't matter to the teenager because she never failed when she sought out for someone. She was Sin. But he had a mind stronger than she bargained for. He denied denied denied. Reminding her along the way of the promise he had made to her father and himself. Everett doesn't do monogamy. Or does he just do her? He was Navy.
