The Vindication of the Tiger
-Can be read as a stand alone-
Heart: In the streets of Atlanta it is what many will die behind, and what many will get themselves killed trying to prove.
But for some, heart comes naturally. It doesn't have to be proven, it is simply there from the start. It is the hunger to be the best. The determination to make it out better than they were when they came in. The will to play the game and never let it play them. It is everything they are.
Until it's not.
Marcus Katrell Daniels is the most infamous drug lord of the northern hemisphere. Operating for a decade, he is more than seasoned about the ins and outs of what it means to play the game. But Marcus wants out, and he wants out his way on his terms. When the fatal realities of life as a drug lord comes raining down into him, Marcus decides he wants to live life as a man he can be proud of. Most importantly, live life as a man deserving to be in the mere presence of one Jalyn Baxter. But as he makes moves to be done with the game, he must answer the question of if the game is done with him.
Jalyn Baxter is on the rise to becoming one of the most acclaimed and sought after physical therapist in Atlanta; being recruited by the best for her extraordinary healing gifts. But Jaylyn's gifts of healing go beyond the training facilities and into those who she dares to love: even though her healing never quite reaches herself. On a journey to love herself, Jalyn finds herself trying to figure out if self-love is possible to do with someone else when Marcus Daniels enters her life sending everything spinning like the old records she sings to to escape her detrimental realities.
Heart: In the confines of love it is the guiding factor that has the power to destroy all a person knows, but invoke a sense of faith a person never knew they had.
For Marcus and Jalyn will it be the former that bring them to their demise or the latter that brings them to their Vindications of themselves and each other?
