After years of surviving under the roof and shadow of her adoptive mother, Audra is finally claiming her freedom with nothing but a beat-up Honda Civic and the weight of her past.

Every story has a beginning. But not every story begins with love.

Since I was sixteen I've always known the kind of life I wanted for myself. I wanted the love. The peace. The happiness. The marriage. The family. The home. But sometimes life doesn't always go as planned. Instead of getting what I wanted, I got what I needed. I got lessons. I got heartbreaks that forced me to grow. I got silence that taught me how to listen to myself. I got endings that pushed me toward new beginnings. And even though it wasn't easy, every detour shaped me into the person I am today. Stronger. Wiser. More passionate about the life I'm still building. And despite all of that, I still want the love. The peace. The happiness. The marriage. The family. The home. I still want it all. Because no matter how many times life has tested me, the desire for those things has never left. It's only grown stronger. ~ Crystal

Esmarae lives lowkey-focused on her wellness boutique, keeping her peace, and staying far away from distractions. But all that changes when she meets Lil Durk. He's a legend from Chicago, deep in the streets and even deeper in the industry. The kind of man whose name rings out in rooms most people fear. She should've stayed away... but some connections hit too hard to ignore. Now her quiet life is tangled in his chaos-and walking away might not be an option.
