Rico Dankworth walked away from the streets with blood on his hands and a vow in his heart-never go back. Now two years out the pen, he's running a mechanic shop, staying low, and rebuilding a life brick by brick. But the ghosts of his past still whisper, and temptation never knocks-it kicks the door in. Tamira Caldwell has the perfect recipe for success: a booming soul food restaurant, a solid circle, and a smile that hides the scars left by a manipulative ex who broke more than just her heart. Love? She's not checking for it. Not until Rico crashes into her world with tattoos, trauma, and a touch that threatens to unravel every wall she's built. Set in the heart of Baywood, Georgia, this is a story of redemption, real love, and the power of choosing yourself even when your past won't let go. Sometimes healing looks like greasy hands and soul food. And sometimes... it sounds like "I see you" from the one person who means it.

Destiny Carter thought the worst thing that could happen to her already did. She lost the boy she loved. Her brother is now sitting in jail for a murder he didn't commit. And the only person who knows the truth... is her. When Destiny witnesses a killing that was never meant to have a witness, a dangerous man makes her a promise: stay silent, or her brother won't make it out alive. Now every passing car feels like a threat. Every whisper at school sounds like a warning. And the truth she's hiding could destroy more than just her family. As a determined detective begins to question what really happened that night, Destiny is pulled deeper into a world she was never meant to be part of. A world where loyalty can get you killed. And love might be the only thing strong enough to survive it. Because the night she saw the truth... changed life as she knew it.

"They say she what he need I ain't give a fuck that's my sweet thing, steady check a nigga fuck what he bang"
