Izrael Namir Sims is a 24-year-old success story. Having grown up in the mean streets of Baltimore, at 17 he was introduced to the dope game - and he excelled. Now, 9 years later, he owns multiple businesses in New York and has obtained two degrees. He finds himself torn between the fast life he's used to and wanting to settle down with his best friend JaMonica - the one who'd been there for him through it all. JaMonica Daniella Newman is a 22-year-old psychology student looking forward to graduation and medical school. Not interested in a relationship, she attempts to limit she and Izrael's relationship to "best friends". After all, they'd been lovers and friends since her junior year of high school. What happens when Izrael wants more? When JaMonica can't seem to shake the fear of being played? When they can't seem to put their pretty little fears aside, a war erupts between love and pride.
