In the gritty streets of Atlanta, where loyalty is tested and survival means playing the game by your own rules, two people from different worlds are drawn together by fate-and a shared sense of vulnerability they never expected.
Kailani Somia Smith, a shy but determined 17-year-old, has spent most of her life battling her insecurities and dreams of escaping her circumstances. Torn between school, her dreams of becoming a hairstylist, and caring for her younger sister, Paris, Kailani's world is one of quiet perseverance. But when a mysterious, intimidating stranger named Elijah Chance Williams crosses her path, everything changes.
Elijah, 19 and at the top of the dangerous drug trade in Atlanta, is no stranger to chaos. With his cold demeanor, commanding presence, and a past filled with betrayal, he's built his empire on fear and respect. But Kailani's defiance, her refusal to back down despite his intimidating presence, strikes a chord in him that he can't ignore. She's different, and he can't figure out why.
As their lives intertwine, Kailani's carefully crafted world begins to unravel, drawn into the darker side of Elijah's world. Amid stolen glances, charged encounters, and dangerous secrets, the two must confront their fears and the complex emotions they've long buried. Kailani must decide if her growing feelings for Elijah are worth the risk of her dreams, while Elijah must face the reality that even the hardest walls he's built might not be enough to protect the one person who's starting to matter most.
"Sincerely, Yours" is a gritty, intense urban romance about love, survival, and the fight to keep what matters most. In a world where trust is fragile, and loyalty is everything, Kailani and Elijah's journey will force them to question everything they thought they knew about family, ambition, and love.
Will their connection be enough to overcome the dangerous worlds they each come from, or will the very things they fear the most tear them apart?
"Do they not say that a good friendship builds on a ground of lies?" I joke, lightening the mood immediately as his green eyes glint in humor and a smirk falls on his familiar lips.
"Do you kiss a lot of your friends, love?" The underlying tones threaten to provoke a blush on my cheeks, but I get myself together.
Smirking at him, "Well, of course, is that not the norm?"

Dakota Moore is the perfect example of a beautiful disaster. Her wisdom is ready to knock anyone down, her self worth is an exact replica of the way her father raised her, and her pain so intense it screams over every building. She refuses to show anyone what's going on behind closed doors, especially when her lovely father gets the traumatic news that he has an incurable disease.
Elijah Black is the spur of the moment kind of guy, he's the one no one ever settles with because of his angry outbursts and rude ways. Even though he throws everyone off, except for when they want sexual advances, he still can't help but feel enthralled by the freckled girl who's hiding so many secrets behind a fake smile.
As they clash and try to reject the obvious rush, will they accept their attraction, or is everything just too much? After all, how can two ruined teenagers manage a youthful love without destroying themselves in the process?
