     Just when Siya thought she’d gotten the monkey off her back, she is faced with losing the love of her life all because of one bad decision. Kendrick. Now that Dacarri knows the truth about Siya’s connection with his uncle, will he continue to stay away or will he be able to get through to her before it’s too late for another chance? The last time Siya spoke to anyone was right before she pulled the trigger in a suicide attempt. In that moment, it seems all hope is lost for her, but there's just no telling… A baby was all Eshari ever wanted, but she never imagined that she would be pregnant by her husband’s brother, Samir. With the secrets of Hassan’s down-low infidelity revealed, she has to make a crucial decision about her wrecked marriage. Will she come clean about her pregnancy to Hassan before everything is brought to the light, or will she carry around her dark secret for nine months? When family secrets are revealed that just may wreck everything, Eshari is forced to come face to face with the reality of what she’s done. Eshari is left with one question: Can she find happiness with or without a ring on her finger and a man by her side? Not only does Cassidy find herself pregnant, but also on edge when an unexpected slip up in her revenge plot takes place. Her heart is torn in two different directions between Nasir, the man she used to love and Jonathan, the man she still desperately wants to be with. She wants nothing more than to get what she is owed; love and respect from both of them, and she’ll do anything to get it. Cassidy soon finds herself the common denominator in a toxic love triangle and it just may cost her everything; including her freedom. Cassidy learns the hard way that karma is a bigger bitch than she could ever be when her lies catch up to her. In Broken Condoms and Promises 2, drama continues to loom in the air for these three at the peak of their thirtieth birthdays. Has too much damage been done to their hearts, or will they be able to overcome it all before they’re considered “damaged goods”?

He was reconstructed to be just as ruthless and as coldhearted as his father.

What he giveth, he could take away, but he would never take anything away from Cherie. He would only give. Cherie, before Shane’s adoption, was forced to move clear across the country and to leave her friends behind. Though separated, she never forgot about Shane or the love he had for her. Just like Shane, Cherie has changed in many ways. She’s just more tight-lipped about it. Cherie breaks free of an abusive engagement and heads back to Virginia, disobeying her fiancé to never return there, but what she stumbles upon when getting there is no fairytale. Her Shane is no longer the lanky little fellow who will trip over his own feet to please her. Neither is he the little boy who will grab the moon and stars for her, to give them to her. She finds him as a wealthy, blood-thirsty, full grown man with a closet full of skeletons, ready to fall out at the slightest touch of the doorknob. Can she tame this beast and find the friend in him that she had long ago? Was her trip back to the past well worth losing her fiancé? Is it possibly to rekindle what they once had?
