When seventeen-year-old Kali Evans, the quiet daughter of a Portmore pastor and a strict high school teacher, transfers to a new school, her only plan is to keep her head down, make it to graduation, and stay out of trouble.
But trouble finds her anyway driving a black Crown, wearing silence like a crown, and holding power in the palm of his hand.
Enter Kirkus: the feared Don of the community. Ruthless. Untouchable. Dangerous. Everything Kali's been warned to avoid.
But one glance.
One conversation.
One stolen night...
And Kali's carefully built world starts to unravel.
As her double life tightens its grip, she's caught between Bible verses and gunshots, first love and real danger, freedom and loyalty. Because in Kirkus's world, nothing comes without a cost.
Can a pastor's daughter survive the heat of the streets?
And can a king of crime protect the only person who makes him feel human again-without destroying her in the process?
