    After losing his mother and every sense of belonging that he’d ever had, Egypt has become a lover of the streets and nothing more. Outside of his best friend, Auto, and respected gang leader BB, Egypt has love for nothing and no one. If it wasn’t about his sister, his gang, or his money, Egypt didn’t have time to entertain the joys of life, with women being one of his biggest casualties. He was young and on the come up. The last thing he had time for was falling in love. Unfortunately, hood prostitute, Dream, had other things in mind. She may have been around the block a few times too many, but not even that could deter her from the love she had for Egypt. Sure, they’d hated each other for years, but even he knew that was all a façade to cover up how she made him feel. With a made up mind, and a spitfire attitude, Dream allowed Egypt to do everything in his power to avoid her until one day he finally allowed his truest feelings to be revealed. If there’s ever been a love story that should have never been told, it was theirs. At least that was what they thought until giving their hearts a chance to stitch together in the most imperfect way.
