WHAT THEY SEE
"I got you something." He told her pulling away, while she watched him curiously until he pulled out a pandora bag. Her eyes widened at the necklace with an infinity symbol in crested with small little diamonds. "How you even afford this kari?" She questioned, unable to take her eyes off of it. "Shit, my savings." He rubbed the back of his head that possessed his starter loc twists. "That was so nice of you, you didn't have too." She smiled softly finally looking at him, "Can you put it on me?" He stood behind her and she moved her hair out of the way as he put it around her neck and clipped it back together. Her hand immediately went to it. "I'm never gone take it off." She promised him turning to face him. "I love you kari." "I love you too, hone. Til Infinity." --- When an unfortunate sequence of events suddenly separates two bestfriends, Dakari and Honesty, with no plausible reason, it's shakes up the world of the two inseparable individuals. With no goodbyes shared, Dakari was left feeling alone and heartbroken by the sudden disappearance of the only person outside of family that he cared for deeply.

When honesty finds herself back where it all began, she discovers the hard way that Dakari no longer wants anything to do with her. The unexpected reunion rekindles unbearable memories of their deep connection and the painful separation that slowly but surely leads them back to each other. It's up to them to pick up the pieces of their broken friendship as they confront their past and face what's in store for their future, whether it's together or apart. They must decide if their love is strong enough to hurdle over the obstacles sent their way from every angle. Is true love worth fighting for no matter how long it takes?

First in her family to leave Atlanta, she steps onto Xavier University's campus with a scholarship, a suitcase, and a plan: law school dreams, no distractions, no slip-ups. Only thing is...the Big Easy don't play fair. Financial aid duckin' her calls. Her part-time job wreckin' her sleep. Her family back home still pullin' at her every move. And then there's him. Kahlil Carter. Frat boy. Legacy money. Smooth enough to make the Yard freeze mid-step. When his eyes find hers? Ayanna feels something she didn't even know she was missing-seen, wanted, alive. But his world-fast parties, secrets, that kind of dangerous pleasure-burns quick. One wrong step, and Ayanna could lose more than her focus. Still, Ayanna's not that girl. She's never been in love. Never let anybody touch her body like that. And she ain't about to hand herself over easy. But the pull between them? It's slow burn. Messy. The kind of heat that only gets louder the more she tries to ignore it. In the middle of all that chaos, there's one place that feels like hers: the art studio. That elective she thought was just a filler credit? It's the only space where her heart runs free. With a brush in her hand, Ayanna finds a voice she didn't know she had-one that might change everything she thought she wanted. Messy. Funny. Heart-heavy. First Year Blues kicks off The Becoming Series-a Southern college story about family, first love, temptation, and the courage it takes to choose yourself. Because in the N.O.? Everything hits different.
