Grief is said to be the final act of love.

For Sarai Simmons, that act became her reality five years ago, when she lost the man who was her protector, her love, and most of all, her sanctuary. Sarai convinced herself that she wouldn't be able to love another man again. Now, ready to put her traumatic past behind her, Sarai decides to get a fresh start in Los Angeles, determined to make a name for herself and achieve all her goals. However, her fresh start quickly takes a turn for the worst when one unexpected night, she is held at gunpoint by LA's most infamous and finest hood king.

Benny Watkins is known for three things: his power in the streets, his talent as the city's hottest music producer, and his irresistible looks. He's a man fazed by nothing and no one. Alongside his uncle, he dominates the streets with an iron fist. Benny is a man no one likes to mess with because they know how crazy he is. When Benny and Sarai's worlds collide, he isn't impressed to find her trespassing on his property. So lifting a Glock to her head wasn't a problem for him at first... until she captured his soul with her beautiful eyes.

Benny and Sarai's chemistry is unmatched. Despite his cold, abrasive nature, Sarai finds herself smitten by this handsome stranger. But still convinced that she can never love a man again, she tries to forget about him. However, forgetting him becomes easier said than done when Benny seems to be at every place she turns, and in spite of his personal baggage, Benny seems to want the scarred beauty just as bad. Benny's never been one for commitment, but could Sarai be the one to finally change his stubborn ways?

This is a tale dripping with love, passion, but most of all, secrets. Secrets so powerful they could ruin everything. Could Benny be the one to show Sarai a love like no other, or will Sarai remain convinced that she can never love a man again?
