That is until a night of celebration with her friends prompts an unexpected turn of events, which leads her to stumble into the arms of Zaheel Osei better known by most as Prince, an Eastside kingpin with a heavy hand in the distribution of drugs, and the order that maintains his communities. Prince's charm mixed with Janella's ignorance pulls them into a relationship based on the lie of who Prince really is, and the relationship only grows as Janella continues to be unaware of his true identity, and Prince makes no move to make her wiser since he likes the reality of being able to be his real self around her without the suffocating embrace of his street persona.

And who did she really fall for? But then again, what is truly love if it does not once render you blind?

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
