Ambra Hadad has known pain and sadness. When her family endures a traumatizing ordeal, 20-year-old Ambra is forced to leave the life she knew behind and relocate to the projects in Los Angeles, California with her mother and little brother. Having been sheltered and pampered her whole life by her wealthy parents, she quickly gets a firsthand education of the realities of the hood. With nobody to turn to in a strange place, Ambra befriends a seedy crew that seem to be successful and established, yet there's things about their lifestyle that clash with Ambra's squeaky clean moral compass and naîve upbringing. She learns that their boss, Darius "Iceman" Payne, is someone not to be crossed. Ruthless, dangerous, and alluring, Darius stirs feelings in Ambra she never thought she was capable of having. Soon, she finds herself in a world she never imagined, where street cred is worshipped and falling in love is against the rules. #1 in the Love genre (2021) #1 in the Urban Romance genre (2021) #1 in the Thug Love genre (2021) #1 in the Hood Love genre (2021)
