What would you do to hold on to the good life? Would you let your man lie and cheat on you? Would you turn your head when the truth is hitting you dead in the face?

Akila Jones had a rough childhood growing up in one of Richmond's grimiest projects. She learned early on that she had to boss up, go in savage mode, and take care of herself by any means necessary. Things are starting to look up for her when she falls for Mari, a well-known hitta from Virginia Beach. Little does she know she is destined for all the drama that comes with dating a dude with money. She'll learn fast that good sex and playing the good girl are not enough to keep her wild lover under control.

Mari is young, rich, and arrogant. His messed-up mentality toward females only makes it worse when he snatches up this young girl who is desperate for a better life. His ignorant behavior makes him oblivious to the fact that danger is on the way, and his life is about to turn upside down in the blink of an eye.

Take a rocky ride with this couple who are toxic for each other but continue to play this dangerous game of love, lies, and betrayal.
