Tameka Bryant's life has been one hell of a rollercoaster, and she's only 15! Her low self-esteem has made her avoid men and all the bullshít that comes with them. She keeps her head down and sticks to her books, the only thing she knows will help her in life. To Cali's resident bad boy Silas James, the streets are what raised him. But after his mother ships him 10,000 miles away to London, how will he deal with a street code foreign to his own? When Tameka meets Silas, something about him instinctively draws her in. But skeletons in Silas' past threaten to derail her destiny before it has even begun...

The summer before going into one of the most important phases in her life, that being college, was just the absolute wrong time to fall in love for Atiyya. She had so much ahead of herself, so many options. I mean, Kaleb wasn't the only boy in the world. But they had known each other since birth almost and they had this connection that he and her both knew they weren't going to get from anywhere else. Kaleb had too much on his plate. Coming from a dead beat mother and an alcoholic father, he was trying to be better than the both of them could ever be and he didn't need distractions. He only wanted Atiyya's friendship, nothing more, nothing less. But as time progressed and the two rekindled their friendship after Kaleb's long hiatus, they began to realize that just maybe they wanted more. ----- I'm not gonna give some long synopsis of this book like I originally planned to. I will however say that, my readers have trusted me with every other book I have written and I just want you guys and any one new to trust me with this one too. I got y'all.
