Privileged? Check. Spoiled? Double check. Affluent? More checks than you can afford. Twenty-one-year-old Lady Holland is the only child of an esteemed federal judge and the apple of her father’s eye. The trust fund baby has lived in the lap of luxury since she was born. That is, until she’s hit with the news on Christmas that her father and stepmother are expecting a new baby. With the threat of a new heir weighing heavily on her, she celebrates the new year with friends, hoping for a carefree night. When she finds herself in the crosshairs of a gang shootout, she’s swept into the arms of a bad boy with a blindingly white smile. He’s passion and poor decisions personified, and a dangerous mix of gangsta and gentleman.
Known on the streets as “Champ,” Champion Cornelius Wallace is everything a mother prays her daughter will never bring home. A savant when it comes to the hustle, he’s done things he’s not proud of–breaking an equal amount of hearts and kneecaps over the years. As ready as he is to put the city in his rearview and start fresh, his ties to the game won’t let him go that easily. When he crosses paths with the attention-grabbing Lady, he falls prey to her beauty. With one foot in and the other out, he finds himself torn between self-preservation and remaining loyal to the game. But something about her coffee-colored eyes makes him want to protect her and her heart at all costs.
As a whirlwind romance blossoms between them, lines will be drawn and crossed as the couple learns that, although love may be patient and kind, it doesn’t turn back the hands of time.
