Roman Tucker is the Kansas City Chiefs' newest cornerback and former cornerback for the Atlanta Falcons. New to the city and to the team, Chiefs star QB, Dave DeLeon takes him under his wing. Without a place to stay or family to stay with in his new city, Roman takes Dave up on an offer to stay in his spare bedroom over the summer and also watch over Riley, Dave's little sister. A drunk first night turned into a full-blown relationship over the private time they spent together. An ignorant Roman wanted to tell Dave the second he returned, but a weary Riley wanted to wait. Rumors begin to circulate around the NFL and when Dave heard, he did some investigating of his own. Unable to handle the mental stress and strain of feeling lied to and betrayed, he begins to subtly sabotage their relationship and it begins to affect their home lives and life on the field. Fed up with the antics after several attempts to rectify the situation in a private manner, Roman creates a paparazzi sh*t storm after confessing to the relationship publicly. Shortly after the storm, Riley receives a call from her brother's best friend and she and Roman rush to her home. Multiple fights ensue before police show up, a gun goes off, an accidental overdose happens and two people are left fighting for their lives. When one doesn't pull through, the entire family is rocked and two professional careers are left to hang in the balance. Riley takes every attempt to make something happen to bring the focus back to football, but after so many failed attempts, she's feeling the pressure of a world of failure around her... and she starts to wonder if this is really the end of life as they all know it.

LEGACY

Khalil is a country man. He's the town's very own slacker, party goer, and womanizer. Gabrielle is a city girl who doesn't take his shit. **** Once a lively ring, Khalil's family equestrian rink called, "The Bowl", now sits quiet. The crowds are leaving, the money's drying up, and the legacy that his great grandfather built is slipping through their fingers. When his father's health takes a sudden turn, Khalil is forced to step up and take the reins; literally and figuratively. Across the street, Gabrielle is spending the summer with her grandparents, camera in hand and dreams of NYU in her back pocket. She doesn't expect to get involved, but something about The Bowl and Khalil pulls her in. What begins as a small effort to help becomes a full-blown mission to save the struggling rink. But rebuilding isn't easy. Especially with a wealthy, white-owned rival rink circling like vultures, waiting to bury them. As tensions mount, long-buried family secrets surface, and Khalil and Gabrielle's bond is tested by jealousy, grief, and growing expectations. In a county divided by class and race, they'll have to decide what-and who-is worth fighting for. ****
