They argue like enemies but touch like lovers. Sarai has better things to do than fall for a man like Casanova "Cas" King-cocky, aggravating, and way too fine for his own good. He's the walking definition of a headache, and she's made it her mission to avoid catching feelings... or catching him outside of their usual after-hours mistakes. To Cas, she was only supposed to be a point to prove. Something to conquer. To get under her skin-and maybe under her clothes. But somewhere between the late-night linkups and the petty arguments, she stopped being just a challenge. Now she's the prettiest problem he's ever had. They don't make sense. They don't play nice. But somehow, they can't stop coming back.

Bookworm Alicia Woodson only cares about one thing: having a successful life now that she's done with college. And the way she plans to do that is to land an entry-level position at the magazine she currently works for as a paid intern. Gorgeous Rodney Greene, who didn't graduate college, works as a construction worker and who's family history is pretty sketchy, only cares about proving to himself that he isn't like these other Harlem guys that are caught up in the mix. Under normal circumstances, Alicia and Rodney wouldn't have crossed paths, but fate intervenes when Alicia meets Rodney through her fine best friend Maxine, the girl he's currently talking to. Alicia doesn't understand what Maxine sees in him and Rodney thinks Alicia is stuck-up around him because he didn't finish school, but what happens when the two keep running into one another and soon their first impressions change and their feelings start to develop for one another?

Twenty-six year old Ja'Marr Phillips, also known as Prodigy, was your typical street dude. Residing in the slums of Philadelphia, PA, the hood life was all Ja'Marr knew and he was fine with that. His life was as cliché as it could ever get. Family was nonexistent, he had one good friend, he sold drugs, he had enemies, and he had a girlfriend who he didn't quite like as much as he should. He was disrespectful, nasty, selfish, and a certified cheater with no heart or soul in this body. Love was never meant for him and neither was settling down which explained the constant cheating he partook in. Though his infidelity wasn't much of a surprise to anyone, the sudden turn of events that occurred when he met her sure was. Twenty-three year old, Jersey Martin, was average. That's it and that's all. There wasn't anything over the top, unique, or extravagant about her. She was a simple young adult who made her money and kept to herself. The only abnormal quantity about her was her sex appeal. Jersey was the type of chick who enjoyed sex, the sexual desire she craved was unlike no other. She would give it to just about anyone. Male. Female. Anyone in between. If she was attracted to them then she was going to bang. Though some may consider her actions disgusting and even say she has a sex addiction, Jersey still didn't care. She wasn't into relationships or long-term sneaky links or committing to anyone at that matter. Yet, she found herself going against her own beliefs after meeting him. This is THE OTHER HER.
