Kayanna been runnin' game since she was 22 - not clockin' no 9 to 5, but clockin' pockets. She used her body like a weapon, slidin' into rich men's beds and hearts, then slidin' out with they stacks. She didn't care who they were - athletes, rappers, dope boys - as long as the money talked, she listened.
But what she didn't know? Most of these dudes ran in the same high-powered, blood-money circle. Word travels fast in them streets, especially when egos and empires get played.
Fresh out the pen, Kay started slippin'. Her finesse got sloppy. Her schemes? Riskier. Sloppier. And now, the wolves she once danced with got teeth bared and blood in their eyes.
She thought she was untouchable. But now?
She runnin' from her past - and baby, the streets don't forget.
If she don't move smart, she won't live long enough to tell the tale.
Ryan feels everything-deeply.
She always has. But when life hit hard and early, she learned to bury it all just to survive.
After losing both her parents at five, Ryan grew up in the foster system with no choice but to toughen up and grow up fast. Now at 22, she's LA's youngest and most sought-after hairstylist-a quiet force in her industry with a heart she keeps guarded.
Romance? Yeah... not exactly her strong suit. Nervous. Awkward. Shy as hell.
That is, until a chance encounter with a rude, stubborn, way-too-fine actor throws her off balance. What should've been a one-time situation turns into something messy, magnetic, and impossible to walk away from.
Emotions she's spent years running from come rushing to the surface, and soon Ryan finds herself on a romantic rollercoaster-one she never signed up for, but might just need.
