What happens when two best friends who start at the bottom make it to the top, only to become enemies, fighting not only for respect but for the love, too? Ezekiel “Banger” Ease is loved by all in his community, from the corner boy to the mayor’s office. By day, he’s not only giving back by creating jobs, but he’s also snatching bodies for debts not paid or simply because of disrespect. Cecil “Caesar” Evans, his best friend, seemed to have forgotten what loyalty was, but it goes beyond money. Now, it’s about family, and Ezekiel wants his family, all of it. With both running for office, Caesar now realizes just how much of a threat Banger really is. With debts coming in from all directions, Caesar is desperate, making decisions that not only reveal secrets that hit close to home but close to the heart, too. Banger, now a seasoned OG and well-respected citizen, sends in his protégé Racer to get the job done. If anyone can do it, this one can. He’s cold, heartless, and uninterested in anything that doesn’t equate to getting money and taking care of home. Nazir “Racer” Payne not only idolized Banger, but he owed him his life, giving a shot by joining his team. When tasked to kidnapped Cecily, AKA CeeCee, Caesar’s daughter, Racer goes in cold-hearted, ready to follow his orders, but something happens. He’s bitten by something he’s never experienced before, unwillingly pushing him to second-guess himself. Tejon “Block” Thomas is the manic one in “The Family,” but a lover, too. While Block would kill anyone that was a threat to The Family, it was the love he had for Nazarene that could be the death of him. Nazarene, AKA Nazzie, is Racer’s baby sister. She’s the love of Block’s life, but after years of being a secret, Nazarene is fed up. She eventually meets Sampson Young, the starting quarterback at Florida State University. While Block has her heart, Sampson is gaining ground, throwing more than touchdowns on the football field to gain her heart. As both, Block and Nazarene, wrestle to do the right thing, Block’s impulsive ways may out them all at risk. Over the years, things come full circle. Hearts are broken, rules are ignored, and alliances have changed. Find out who is the last man standing in this emotional, tumultuous saga of when a woman loves a hitta.
