In the heart of South Central LA, Nikki Monroe is determined to escape the struggles of the hood and build a better life for herself and her little brother through veterinary school. Independent, fearless, and unwilling to depend on anyone, she never expected to fall for Rome - better known in the streets as Slim. Feared by many and respected by all, Rome is used to people wanting his power or fearing his name. But Nikki treats him like nothing more than a man, and that changes everything. As their connection grows deeper, Rome begins questioning the street life he's always known, dreaming instead of leaving it behind to open his own tattoo shop. But in a city where survival comes at a cost, love may be the most dangerous risk of all. Before the Sirens Fade is a deep urban romance about ambition, healing, loyalty, and finding peace in the middle of chaos.

Who would have thought a first lady of a church would fall for a thug.

But one faithful job opportunity will change her life in more ways than she could have ever could believed. (This is my first story, feedback is welcome)
