Mariah had just been transferred to a hospital in Chicago when she met Dayvon Bennet a Chicago drill rapper and a member of the black disciple gang, when they met her life changed. cover by @K4SHMAYY

She was raised in a city that don't love nobody. Chicago taught her pain early. After losing her daddy, she and her brother L'A moved back from Atlanta to the South Side-where love came fast and death came faster. When L'A was murdered in 2013, everything shattered. Her boyfriend, Von-the only one who ever really saw her-was in and out of jail... and in and out of her life. So, she left. Packed up the grief, the guilt, the memories... and ran to Jersey. Five years later, she's back in the same city that stole everything from her. But nothing's the same. Von got a name now. O'Block different. She not that lost girl anymore. But love in the trenches don't die easy. And when the past pulls her back in, she's forced to face what she ran from: -Her first love. -Her brother's ghost. -And a city that never stopped bleeding. This is a Chicago hood love story. Real. Raw. Unforgettable.

He was chaos in the shape of a man. And she was the only peace he ever wanted to keep. Kingston "Kash" Vaughn isn't just misunderstood-he's unmedicated, unhinged, and unforgiven. Diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia after witnessing his mother's murder, Kash walks the line between genius and madness, street legend and broken boy. He doesn't trust people. Doesn't believe in peace. And he damn sure doesn't believe in love. Until her. Rai'Lynn "Rai" Tate is used to saving everybody but herself. As a crisis center worker, she's been trained to handle the darkest minds-but nothing prepares her for Kash. Their connection is magnetic, twisted, and immediate. He sees her, obsesses over her, needs her like air. And the scariest part? She needs him right back. What starts as therapy turns into obsession. Passion turns into control. And love? Love becomes a war. Because when the voices in his head grow louder... She's the only one he'll listen to. But what happens when the thing you love most is the same thing that might destroy you?
