At twenty, Jourie Vance has her entire life perfectly mapped out. As the owner of an elite, low-profile luxury hair brand, she moves like a ghost online and keeps her personal life completely locked down. She doesn't do chaos, she doesn't do clout, and she definitely doesn't do the music industry. Damiri "Von" Rivers is twenty-two, heavily tatted, unpredictable, and the most dangerous rising superstar in the rap game. He's used to girls doing the absolute most for his attention, but when he steps into Jourie's quiet sanctuary and gets nothing but icy silence, he's instantly hooked. Jourie knows getting involved with a reckless rapper is a threat to everything she's built-but the slow-burn tension is too electric to ignore. It's a dangerous game where lines are crossed, loyalty is tested, and the wrong choice might just be the best mistake she ever makes.
