Publisher's Synopsis
The death of D.C.'s street legend, D. Money Mason, gives his protege's, Yam and Snake, control over D.C. Proper preparation prepares Yam to run the streets with ease as his boy Snake assists him in ruling D. Money's territories. Running the streets is easy, but trying to keep his daughter a secret and controlling her spoiled and sneaky ways is the toughest job Yam ever endures. Paisley is selfish, spoiled and stubborn as hell. She defies Yam in every way she can- especially when it comes to men. To teach her a lesson about responsibility, Yam finds that he has no choice but to force Paisley into adulthood but under his strict rules. As a war over territory breaks out, Yam finds that his buried secrets are slowly coming to the surface. Darius had a lavish childhood, but after losing everything and being bounced between foster homes, he's more determined than ever to make a name for himself. Being a part of Yam's team wasn't enough for Darius; he wanted his name to ring bells in the street. Besides, being a boss was in his blood, and he would stop at nothing until he was sitting on top of the throne. After gaining her independence and finally standing up to her dad, Paisley feels that it's time for her to show her dad that she is a grown woman and can handle whatever comes her way. What she can't tell him is that her sudden burst into womanhood was due to her new man. As Yam and Snake try to handle the street war that is brewing from the South, Paisley continues down her path to becoming an independent woman. She's faced with battles of a broken friendship that might not be able to be mended after death comes knocking at her door. Find out what happens when Paisley's man begins to piece together bits of his past and finds that his future is a part of his past. He has to make a difficult choice. Either he kills-as promised-or fights for love.
