Life was never easy for twins, Camilla and Lauren. Just a few months shy of turning eighteen they’ve had it hard since they were younger. Abandoned by their parents, they’re forced into a home with the foster family from hell. Living in a house of misery and torment, the sisters weren’t allowed to have a life outside of the home. Meaning, the siblings couldn’t work, have a social life, or do normal things that seventeen year olds should do. Breaking the house rules resulted in harsh punishments and repercussions.

Camilla, the oldest twin by just a few minutes, always had her head on straight and often did her best to stay low key and follow the rules of the house. On a hot, spring day, Camilla entered a packed and crowded bus. Forced to stand, she meets the young and determined, Diesel on board. Being a gentleman, he gives up his seat, which intrigues Camilla. From that day forward, he simply treated her like a princess, even though he didn’t have much to offer himself.

Diesel immediately was head over heels with Camilla, and the feeling was mutual. He courted her and showed her how she should’ve been treated. But, when he introduces her to his friend, who is more like a big brother to him, sparks immediately fly between the two of them, unbeknownst to Diesel. Determined to keep her distance from the fine, tatted, dope boy Meshach, can Camilla and Diesel’s relationship thrive? Will she give into temptation? Can she have a relationship in a house that is so controlled?

Meshach, not one to play when it came to disrespect, was often feared in the streets. He didn’t believe in love and often stayed away from any female that wanted more from him. His motto was to get money and worry about love later. That didn’t sit too well with Soraya, the woman that couldn’t understand that. Even though Soraya was intensely in love with Meshach she often felt like he would never commit. Can she get him to see that she’s the one for him, or will her jealous ways push him further away completely?

Lauren, deciding to take matters into her own hands, acts out, runs away, and finds comfort in boys. Not one to wait on someone to do something for her, Lauren goes out and does what she knows how to do best, and that’s hustle. Slowing down her fast ways, she meets bad boy Octavious. He seemed to be the only one that could tame her, but with him heavy in the streets, Octavious is too busy for love. It seems the apple didn’t fall far from the tree being that he and Meshach were cousins.

Find out what happens when you mix love, secrets, and lies with the streets. Join this crew, and a few other unforgettable people, on this roller-coaster ride."
