Moving into her own place was the start to self-sufficiency after a horrible split with him. His controlling ways trumped her confidence, and caused her to reject love in any form when expressed by a man. However, a fated encounter with a handsome stranger quickly changes her outlook and causes her hurdles to dwindle in size. Still, reservations and fear aided by Homicide’s existence lingers much longer than Koko would care to admit.

Like a knight in shining armor, Mekhi rescues Koko, setting her heart on fire and putting her love in the air. Hustler turned business owner, Mekhi is a self-proclaimed boss, who’s put his street ways behind him. He could have any woman he wants, that is until KoKo walks into his life. She’s the complicated beauty with a lot of extra baggage, who is hell bent on giving him a run for his money. He’s got his work cut out with her but at what cost? How far is he willing to go to steal the dope man’s girl? Or will he get anywhere at all? Mesha, Koko’s well cared for and materialistic bestie, is at her wits end with the secrecy and denial of the relationship that she shares with her play brother, Nas. While Nas doesn’t want to ruin the bond they’ve created over the years, Mesha is searching for more. She finds it within Dutch, a new crewmember of the same organization that Nas is a part of, Cokeboyz. Against Mesha’s better judgment, she pursues a relationship that was tainted from the start, and places both herself and Nas in the line of fire. Between the pages of this fast-paced, grimy, yet, beautiful tale of hatred, love, and forgiveness, this Dallas crew appears to be bound for destruction. Gather your bearings as the chain of spiraling events causes you to wonder who you’re riding for, and if they’ll make it to see the light of day.
