    And Black knows that better than anyone. After a drug heist gone bad, Black and Buzzy are hellbent on selling off all the pills they thought they'd gotten away with. All they want now is to unload the narcotics and live the high life by spending the cash and getting out of the business. But that's easier said than done...The two men they lifted the drugs from are making demands, and Black and Buzzy can't turn away. Now, Black is faced with a new challenge, falling for Layla, a chick he just can't have. After all, she's married to the man who's doing time for Black's heist. Black can't possibly take everything from him. With the cops on his tail, a desire to bail on the game, and a guilty conscience, Black must act carefully. But will his next move involve another man's wife?

    Paris, Jay Rock, Bee, and Kiara have all had their fair share of both. These are four people that are vastly different but share something in common. They’ve swopped and dated the other’s spouses inadvertently. There’s the saying that three’s a crowd, so what to do when there’s four? Paris is the on the surface “good girl” while Kiara is the wild child. Kiara uses her sex appeal to gain attention, but Paris uses her head to gain a man’s loyalty. Men take interest in the two of them for different reasons. Still, somehow they seem to attract the exact same men. This is baffling to the girls and it transforms them both into enemies. Bee had Paris and left everyone wondering just how he did it. He wasn’t the most attractive or the biggest baller. Jay Rock had conquered most broads in the hood, including Kiara. Kiara now had her sights set on Bee and didn’t care who he was with. Jay Rock wanted so badly to deny that he had a thing for Paris that went beyond her being the only girl to turn him down. In the game of connections through money, love, and drugs chaos always seems to be the recipe. It’s all about who can play the game the best, and nobody wants to come in last place. It’s a race to the finish line, and everybody around wants to know who will be the last man standing. Will anyone leave the race unscathed? Or will the connection they all have be their downfall?

    But, when a man is gunned down right in front of her eyes and she captures the whole ordeal on her phone, she instantly becomes the Calloway family’s newest target. Andreas “Law” Calloway was more than a drug dealer. He was now the new head of an empire built by his family after the murder of his older brother, Asaad “Wolfe” Calloway. Law knows the streets like the back of his hand, and now that he has the world at his fingertips, his first order of business is to wreak havoc on those responsible for Wolfe’s death. Now that he’s the one calling the shots, his enemies will stop at nothing to destroy him because everyone wants a piece of the throne. Although Law may be a disrespectful savage that makes the ladies swoon, he’s not a reckless bachelor swimming in a sea of women like his younger brother, Aston "Blaze" Calloway. Law is engaged to Nashiya, who will be damned if anyone takes her place beside him on the throne. She’s got the ring on her finger to prove it. When Law makes the decision to spare Raquel’s life, he does so with one stipulation: making sure the last place she thinks of going is to the police. He never thought he'd find himself caught in between what his mind knows and what his heart wants. Soon, he finds himself drawn to Raquel in a way that he can't explain. The chemistry between them is too strong for either of them to deny. Raquel knows that her survival comes at a cost. Will she do anything to escape back to her old life or stick with her new one? Being around Law and the rest of the Calloway family may just turn her heart of gold into the heart of a savage.
