Teonna Carter wasn't looking for love - especially not in Detroit, where loyalty is rare and danger is normal. She was focused on working, doing hair, staying out the way... until she met Martez Ramsey on a late summer night. Tall, quiet, dark-skinned, tatted, and way too fine for her peace of mind - Tez walked into her life like a problem she should've avoided. A man with a past he don't talk about, enemies he don't mention, and a soft spot he swore he'd never give to nobody. But one look at her? That was it. Their connection was instant, messy, and way too deep. Arguments that could shake a room, make-ups that feel like heaven, jealousy that borders obsession, and love strong enough to ruin them both. As Teonna gets pulled deeper into Tez's world - the streets, the secrets, the danger - she has to choose between protecting her heart... or protecting him. And Tez? He'll do anything to keep her close. Even if it means burning bridges, breaking rules, and going to war for the girl who became his weakness. This is a Detroit love story - real, raw, toxic, passionate, and unforgettable. Because sometimes the person you should stay away from... is the only one you can't let go.

Many people think I'm dumb, scary, or grimy. But I don't care what yall think. Yall witnessed what I went through with my babydaddy, Massiah, as a single mom only trying to keep my daughter out of danger. Yall saw how he somewhat tried to control my life. Same as he always came for me when I needed saving, even if I hated depending on him to save me. It was hard for me, but eventually he gave me no choice but to be okay with that and to be able to stand on my own two feet without needing someone to save me all the time. Not only that, but he soon managed to get me tied into his game. Everything you're about to witness is what happened two years after I gave birth to Ermes.

Massiah Ira Gray- I always had my eyes on one female. I just hate that I got locked up right after I crushed. Aoki Dream Gates- A one-night stand changed my life forever. He just had to disappear when I found out I was pregnant.
