"I used to think love was something you had to survive. You taught me it could be something you could breathe in."
Desirae Coleman is a 20-year-old student at Georgia Coastal University, an HBCU in the heart of Atlanta, Georgia.
After everything she's experienced, love is the last thing on her mind. She's built walls around her heart, convinced that keeping people at a distance is easier than getting hurt again.
Milan Luna is also a 20-year-old student at Georgia Coastal University. Calm, caring, and determined, Milan has always believed in showing people the love and respect they deserve.
When the two cross paths, neither of them expects the connection that begins to grow between them.
But falling in love isn't always easy.
With Desirae's fears fighting against the feelings she can't ignore, will she allow herself to trust again?
Or will the past she's worked so hard to leave behind keep her from the one person who wants to love her the right way?
