Her family sees embarrassment. Her lawyer sees entitlement. The public sees a headline. But underneath all of that, she is somebody who keeps making reckless choices because she is starving for love, attention, freedom, and somebody to choose her over the family name.

She's supposed to keep him out of prison. He's determined to keep her in his orbit. And somewhere between courtrooms and gunshots, Fatima has to decide which will ruin her first: the case... or the man.

Zac Taylor is known as Atlanta's infamous "City dick," never getting attached and leaving a trail of broken hearts behind. Fatima Wilson, a confident and career-driven paralegal at her friend Andi Barnes' law firm, has no time for men like him. When she first meets Zac, his bold charm doesn't impress her-especially with her friends, like Karen, warning her to steer clear of his toxic reputation. But after a series of unexpected run-ins and vulnerable late-night conversations, Fatima starts to fall for him. As her feelings deepen, she finds herself torn between her loyalty to her friends and her growing connection with the man who might just be bad for her... or exactly what she needs.

A young woman struggling in law school trying to make it in life trying to prove to her old town that she's cut out to be a top lawyer. Moving to the big apple she comes across an opportunity that can change her whole life.

Zachary Taylor and Fatima Wilson were never supposed to be anything more than friends. Seven and a half years later, nobody believes them. Not when he calls her first after every game. Not when she shows up to every practice like she belongs there. Not when his daughter cries for her before anyone else. And definitely not when they argue like a married couple who forgot to sign the papers. They swear it's nothing. Just friendship. Just loyalty. Just life. But life has a funny way of looking like love when you stop paying attention. Especially when you've already been living like a family without realizing it. And when outside relationships, old history, and unexpected truths start to blur the lines... One question becomes impossible to ignore: If they're just friends... why does it feel like they've already been married this whole time?

Paradise is where you dream everything would come true. Some paradise will have you start over and become better whichever come first is always a game changer
