Work #9 // Shawn Carter, the #1 overall NBA Draft Pick in college basketball, is one of the greatest shooting guards in college history, averaging 28 points a game. The media sees the good side of him, but little do they know the hardship he goes through behind closed doors. After years of physical fights and tension with both of his parents, Shawn has done everything to earn a little money and stay in school. He's sold drugs, done drugs and has been arrested for it. He had no motivation to do anything else. The money was quick and easy. When his older sister, Lauren, sees him changing for the worse, she decides to get him back in the gym and even introduce him to her good friend, Beyoncé. He hasn't been the same since. Read about Shawn's story!

Melanie Knowles had the shock of a lifetime when her big day came and the man of her dreams informed her that he couldn't go through with their wedding due to unforeseen infidelity. Upset and angry, she canceled the wedding and removed him from both her and their son's life. Years later, she finds herself in the mist with rapper, Jay Z. He sees something in her that she doesn't seem to see. Not only does he see a star in the making, but he sees the love of his life. What happens when this stubborn woman who has sworn off love is being courted by a very persistent man?

"I've been trying to deal with this by myself. I've just been waiting, you know? Waiting on a sign or something, but I never received one. But I do know that Shawn cheated on me four months ago." The bombshell news heard around the dinner table. After two years of marriage, Beyonce is spilling the beans about her husband's infidelity for all of their friends and family to hear. After giving birth to their baby girl, Arielle, this mother's prayer is only for her daughter to never endure half the shit that she's had to.

It's been five years since everything happened. Five years that Melanie had stripped herself of her original name and owned up to Beyonce. In those four years, she's reached heights in her musical career that others are still shocked by. Every award that she's been nominated for, she's won and every song she's put out has topped the charts. To her, life couldn't get any better, but her best friend, Shawn Carter, thinks otherwise. In his heart, he knows that he's found his soul mate, but the two are just on different paths. What happens when Shawn uses his last great seduction tactic?

He made a mistake that cost him his family. They were together for 21 years, married for 9. He vowed to forever love and protect her for better, for worse and in sickness and in health. Will she forgive him for his infidelity or will she hold this grudge against him forever?
