There may be love but love doesn't over power the act of negativity" 22-year-old Carina Thompson lives a carefree L.A. lifestyle, yet beneath the surface, she struggles with the same confusion many young people face-wounds from childhood, uncertainty about her future, and untapped potential.

Growing up with a high-class father meant living a high-class lifestyle, but everything changes when she crosses paths with Quincy Alsina, a 22-year-old Louisiana native from the streets.

The real problem? Neither of them understands that communication and listening are the keys to a healthy relationship. And if it's not healthy... isn't it just a waste of time? Can a honeymoon stage ever last forever? Will you ask me to marry you?
