Even as a child, Vanity’s beauty is unmatched. In the suburbs of Houston, Texas, six year old Vanity is enjoying what she and her parents believe to be a safe and normal life, soaking up the summer, along with her playful best friend, Larenz. While she shouldn’t have to be on alert, her naivety and desire to keep up with Larenz leave her vulnerable, causing her to be ripped from her mother and father’s loving arms in an instant, never to be seen as a child again. Larenz grows up with a hole in his heart for the friend that was stolen from him, and the driving force in his life has been using his position as an officer to reunite Vanity with not only himself, but her family, but what he finds is only the shell of the little girl he once knew. Vanity is now an adult, and her life no longer makes sense. After being used and abused by different men, her life seems to have no purpose. Even with love all around her from her family and best friend, she still can’t see how truly captivating she is inside and out, but Larenz is determined to help restore her faith in herself and inhumanity if it’s the last thing he does. Larenz’s girlfriend, Pryncess believes he’s obsessed with helping Vanity, and his need to “fix” her could cost him his relationship. What Pryncess doesn’t realize is Larenz doesn’t want to change Vanity, he seeks to save her from the street life she can’t let go of to settle back into society. Tensions run high when Pryncess becomes consumed with making Vanity the problem in what she considers to be a perfect relationship between her and Larenz, and Larenz’s choice to keep Vanity in his life could be detrimental. In Sha Jones’ latest love story, there’s no deeper love than love of self and the understanding of love received.
