‘We don't need the world's acceptance, they're too hard on me, they're too hard on you.’ –Beyoncé
As the former head of security for the Carbine family, Iman ‘Blitz’ Gunner has had his run of the streets. However, the quiet but deadly marksman has decided to take his life in a different direction. Secretly, he’s been going to school to obtain his degree in social work and graduation is near. Equally as gratifying, he has the love of his life at his side. At least that’s what he wants to believe. Her insistence on keeping their relationship on the hush has grown tiresome, and Iman is done with hiding… no matter the cost or backlash.
Avery Black was once considered a hood princess. Now, as a professional harpist, she’s gaining notoriety for her skill. Some would consider it her great comeback after a stint of recklessness and being sent away. Being back in Silk Hills, repping her new life, conjures old memories and unresolved fears. It’s enough to make her question if she’s worthy of happiness, especially at the hands of love.
For years, Avery and Iman have stood together in secret. At the tip of their turning point, do they have what it takes to keep standing? Or will the forces of doubt cause a falter too painful to mend?
