Taniya Parker is gifted, young, and beautiful, but she's also incredibly independent and can come off a little hardcore sometimes. She graduated high school at the age of fifteen and attended the HBCU, Hampton University the following year. Now, starting her residency at Berry-View Hospital, she meets her longtime academic Rival, Christian Young. Christian Young is the male version of her, except a more conceited and arrogant version. Just as she graduated high school at the age of fifteen so did he, It was uncanny really. They'd met in college when his school, Virginia State, visited a local Medical fair. The fair was an opportunity for all Pre-Med students to learn from actual doctors who worked in the field. That was when Taniya accidentally bumped into Christian after staring at her notes and walking at the same time. "Oh, I'm sorry." She said, clearly distracted. "You good, just watch your step next time princess." He gave her a smug smile, then she just rolled her eyes and walked away. Little did she know, that's where it would all begin.
