Things are coming to a head as the lives of Ranisha, Ethridge, Zhaire, and Shawnta collide. Using Veora as bait, Shawnta figures she can get rid both of her competitors in the fight for Zhaire’s love. There is just one problem, Veora’s old flame, Ethridge. After finding out that she’s been kidnapped, he will stop at nothing to save her. In the midst of the rescue operation, Ethridge much chose between being the caregiver within him or the part of him that wants to bring an end to Zhaire. As with most situations, pain creates a bond between two individuals. This is true for Ethridge and Ranisha, who eventually find themselves the target of Zhaire’s destructive rampage. Half truths and whole lies bring them together. In one another, they find hope for the future. But good things never last. The men face off in a final battle, in which the woman of their affections, will determine their fate. Once again, Ranisha finds herself behind the trigger, the decision of who lives and dies in her hands. Good guy or King Pin? Present or Future? No matter who she chooses, no one’s life will be the same.
