About
This is a problematic hood love story. Three years ago, Guest was introduced to Imani by their cousin, Aaliyah, who is also Imani's best friend. After falling for her hard, Guest and Imani started a relationship and have been inseparable ever since. However, their life is built on a foundation of trauma; Imani's brother, Jamal, was sent to jail for drug possession, which shattered her family. Now, as Imani builds a legitimate career in cosmetology, Guest has secretly started dealing—the very crime that destroyed Imani's family. The weight of this secret feels as dark as ebony, threatening to unravel everything.

Her life has been shaped by significant hardship; her brother Jamal's incarceration and her mother's subsequent mental breakdown taught her that she couldn't depend on others. Her father is also distant, reinforcing her need for independence.
