Best friends since the beginning, raised, groomed, and established in the ruthless streets of their home town, Brasi Gibson and Lucy “Lu” Daniels have finally made it to the top. Thriving off the respect of others while enjoying the perks of being hood rich, the pair effortlessly dominate any and everything they’re a part of. Though they’re nothing more than friends, the inner fire that burns on the inside of them both for the other, is starting to become unbearable. Lu is well known in the streets for being Brasi’s first lady, and because of this, things between her and her longtime boyfriend are diminishing. Loving Brasi with everything in her, but still drawing the line at their friendship, Lu’s able to balance it all out, until Brasi presents his truest feelings to her. A young street king and a self-made boss in his own right, Brasi Gibson is living the life. He’s got money, women, and anything materialistic at the tip of his fingers, but all of that means nothing to him without true love. Having always known that Lu was indeed made for him, Brasi doesn’t stress her personal life until it starts to get in his way. Accustomed to getting anything he wants, he feels as if Lu is no different and disregards everything in his way of having her. Breon is Lu’s younger sister and has pretty much been along for the ride. Never challenging Lu or getting involved in anything that has to do with the streets, Breon lives a pretty peaceful life. However, all of that is quickly dismissed once Brasi’s right hand man, Wren Moore, starts to pursue her. Street and as hood as they come, Wren is fearless and sees no boundaries when it comes to the things he wants. The only problem with that is, the one thing he really wants, he can’t have. Breon seems to fight him at every turn, but being the persistent young hustler that he is, he weakens her and quickly captures her heart. Find out just how far these men will go to obtain the heartbeat of their blocks.
