Jordyn and Marshall first meet on one of those days Marshall is desperately trying to sell copies of his debut album Infinite, vending on the streets of Detroit, standing right next to his beat down hand-me-down Honda his mom had passed on to him.
Jordyn is trying to make it in the music industry as well. She wants to make it as a singer.
So, the two of them meet, eventually realize that they have a whole lot in common, and are both there for each other along their journeys to make it big, as well as everything else on between, eventually becoming best friends, then going from friends to lovers, but so many things get in their way right from the get go. Like Jordyn's trust issues with men, Marshall's extremely complicated relationship with his baby's mother, Kim, the fame that one of them acquires way quicker than the other, as well as even more stuff that follows along down the line. Drug addiction, fame, groupies, love, hate...
Will all those things eventually tear them apart, or bring them even closer together?!
Who the hell knows...

Shy and timid, Onika lives in a dilapidated Detroit neighborhood with her abusive uncle. She is hopelessly in love with Marshall Mathers, a troubled young man that lives next door to her in their rough hood.
Marshall is rude, agressive and uncouth, while Onika is all sweet and innocent.
Marshall also never notices her, why would he. He's got a kid and a baby's mother with whom he's constantly fighting but seems to be madly in love with all the same, after all. And there's simply no room for him to even so much as pay attention to any other girl other than Kim, that is.
Onika doesn't stand a chance, even if one day Marshall finally does notice her.
But it all changes on the day Onika offers him help and a place to hide out at when he's needed it the most.
And once Marshall DOES lay eyes on Onika, well... all hell is about to break loose as a repercussion to that...
TW: will contain sexual situations, including an attempted SA, strong language, drugs use, etc..
