Milana born in Atlanta with nothing but ambition, a scholarship, and scars no one could see. By night, she strips under neon lights to pay her tuition. By day, she survives-alone, unmothered, and grieving the only person who ever loved her right. Then she meets Sincere-a smooth-talking, Chicago-born hustler with a record, a past, and a pain that mirrors her own.
Their connection is instant. Electric. Inevitable.
But love this deep can either heal or drown you.
In a world where loyalty is rare, and survival is a full-time job, Milana and Sincere learn that not every soulmate saves you-some set fire to the parts you were trying to rebuild.
This is a story about love with no blueprint.
About two broken hearts that tried to beat as one.
And what happens when survival meets desire.

Lost, afraid, and broken, she meets King, a dominant, charismatic stud serving 25 to life for a street murder. King runs the block and has the respect of guards and inmates alike. From the moment King sees Nia, she's drawn to her vulnerability, her beauty, and her silence. She becomes her protector, fighting off threats and making sure nobody touches her. Over time, they form a deep emotional bond that borders on obsession for King - though Nia sees her as a friend, possibly more, in a place where love is survival. When Nia is released early after 5 years, she promises to write. But life moves on. She reinvents herself, gets therapy, becomes a nurse, and even marries a kind man who doesn't know the full truth about her past. Ten years later, King is finally released on parole. She searches for Nia with one purpose: to reclaim what she believes is hers. But when she sees Nia with her husband, the jealousy eats her alive. King makes a deadly choice: she kills the husband in cold blood, thinking she's freeing Nia. Now Nia is caught between the new life she built... and the old protector who never let her go.Complete

I stared at him for a moment and he did the same, both of us daring the other to say one more smart remark. "Don't you have a class to teach?" I asked raising an eyebrow. He smirked "Your right Ms Jones, and with that I'm leaving. Try not to day dream about me during Mr Richards's lesson" he said cockily making the class laugh again. I gave him a fake smile "Same for you. It wouldn't be very apealing if you got a hard on during your next lesson" I scoffed.
