We thought three years of forcing ourselves to forget and a few state lines could make us regret what we were. We lied, called it life and just let it run its course. But death doesn't care about boundaries and the heart will always yearn for exactly what it wants.

And if you'll let me, I'll take care of you

Zachary Taylor and Fatima Wilson were never supposed to be anything more than friends. Seven and a half years later, nobody believes them. Not when he calls her first after every game. Not when she shows up to every practice like she belongs there. Not when his daughter cries for her before anyone else. And definitely not when they argue like a married couple who forgot to sign the papers. They swear it's nothing. Just friendship. Just loyalty. Just life. But life has a funny way of looking like love when you stop paying attention. Especially when you've already been living like a family without realizing it. And when outside relationships, old history, and unexpected truths start to blur the lines... One question becomes impossible to ignore: If they're just friends... why does it feel like they've already been married this whole time?

23, exhausted, and hopelessly overwhelmed. Fatima is a paralegal by day and a law student by night, but her most important job starts the second she gets home to three-month-old Alora. With her parents busy and the man she thought would be her "forever" long gone, Fatima is leaning on a thread that's about to snap. Then there's Zac. A real estate agent who sees the girl behind the stroller and the heavy law books. He doesn't want to overstep, but he wants to be the person she can lean on. As Fatima fights to build a future for her daughter, she has to decide: can she let someone in without losing the independence she's fought so hard to keep?

A love worth building.

In a city that never slows down, love doesn't come easy-it comes with a price. Crystal thought moving to New York would be her fresh start. With nothing but her father's inheritance, raw talent, and a dream of becoming a designer, she's determined to build a life that's hers. No distractions. No detours. Just success. But New York has a way of rewriting plans. Devale is the life of every party-the man everyone knows, the one everyone watches. In Brooklyn, they call him *The Party King*. Nights blur into mornings, women come and go, and commitment? That's never been his style. He's built his name off the nightlife... and he has no intention of slowing down. Until Crystal. She's different-focused, unbothered, and completely unimpressed by his reputation. What starts as curiosity quickly turns into something neither of them expected. But when two worlds collide-one chasing dreams, the other running from reality-something is bound to break. Because Crystal isn't built for his chaos... and Devale isn't ready for her kind of love. In a city full of lights, temptation, and secrets, they'll have to decide- is this just another moment... or something worth risking everything for?

During what should have been the happiest time of their lives, Zac and Fatima navigate storms that they never saw coming.

And sometimes, the only way to find the truth, is to pretend.

Zac has recently come from a traumatic six-year relationship, dealing with the emotional wounds of his toxic EX, and to add on to his pile the news that his mother's health is worsening. In the midst of his struggle, he meets Fatima, an ambitious lawyer who displays confidence and compassion. Despite her hard profession, she makes time to volunteer at a local charity, where she meets Zac. Will.they end up together or will Zac be to damage to see what's right in front of him......
