"Money, fame, hoes. Can get you anything you want, except for happiness."

This book is a follow on from 'Fallin 4 u'. This is basically about what happens after DeVante and Justine break of the engagement. From a bestfriend, to someone you try to avoid for yours and their safety turns out wrong but gets better in the long run.

Adrienne Redford came from an unpleasant upbringing. Everyone she seemed to care for in life left her broken and alone. That is until she met a young and "faultless" DeVante DeGrate. She invested every ounce of love and trust into a man whose closet overflowed with skeletons and demons. It wasn't always a battle of blood and bruises for the two young lovers. But as secrets unveil and lies unfold, the good rots into bad and the bad decays into ugly only leaving the DeGrate, himself to blame.
