Some girls dream of the stage. Enid learned to act through the pain. At seventeen, her mother bounced - left her to fend for herself in the cold streets of the Bronx. She leaned on Malik, the city's deadliest dope boy. His love? Fists, silence, and scars she buried deep. Her dreams of acting? Broken under his grip. Then Leo steps in - a college ball player from a notorious Dominican-Puerto Rican crime family trying to go clean. Gentle. Real. The opposite of everything Malik is. With Leo, she remembers the girl she used to be. But the streets don't forget who she became. Trapped between two worlds - love and survival, past and future - Enid's got one hell of an act to keep playing. Because in the city, pain is real, and pretending you're okay is the toughest hustle of all.
