Syauri Ngolo is the girl everyone underestimates soft-hearted but sharp-tongued, loyal but lost. On the outside, she's focused on finishing college and earning her business degree. On the inside, she's fighting battles no one sees the kind that leave bruises on the heart.
Then there's Ka'Siyah Pierson quiet, cold, and dangerous in ways that make people step aside. Growing up in chaos taught him to trust no one. His past is soaked in violence, and though he's risen to power as the boss everyone fears, the darkness never left him. He's built walls too high to climb until Syauri crosses his path.
What starts as tension turns into something deeper, something that could either heal them or destroy them completely.
But love in their world isn't simple.

Anything for a Slice of Lemon (An Original Urban Drama) (2026)
"I swallowed hard. "Hey." "How you been? You look..." He pulled off his shades, his eyes immediately locking on mine. "Beautiful. My God." Heat crept up my neck. I tangled my fingers on the table, trying to ground myself and my nerves. His gaze dropped to my hands, and instantly, his jaw tightened. "What's that?" he asked, chin jerking toward my engagement ring. I forced a smile, wiggling my ring finger, happily and nervously at the same time. "I'm engaged." He stared at me blankly and coldly. By his facial expression, it was safe to say he wasn't happy for me. "To who?" -- Lemon was just a girl with big dreams and Teal, her first love, was the one who made them feel real. She thought she knew what her future would look like with Teal, until one day he vanished without a word, leaving her heart shattered in pieces. Four years later, Lemon has rebuilt herself. She's engaged, thriving, and ready to begin a new future with a new man. But just as Lemon is recreating her future without Teal, Teal reemerges unexpectedly like a ghost with unfinished business and unspoken secrets from the past. Lemon is placed in a tough spot now that the man that she once loved, and could never forget, is back and ready to risk it all to get the love of his life back, by ANY means. Can Teal reclaim the only heart he's ever wanted, or has Lemon finally closed the door on her first love for good?
