As mature men, the Savage brothers now realize that a man is not truly rich until he has something that money can't buy, and what money can't by is the women that have won their stubborn, once concrete, hearts. However, nothing in life comes easy and that includes love... especially with so many threatening, dangerous, and deadly obstacles in their path to protect their family and their women. As soon as City and Akira had a taste of their happily ever after, it was snuffed away by her very own father. How will City avoid the charges that her father is threatening his entire family with in order to be with his woman? He doesn't even have time to figure it out because he has to focus on clearing the Savage family million-dollar debt to the Columbians. Money finally matured enough to realize that staying with Zoe because of loyalty, was only hurting them both. Yet, now that their relationship is finally over, their drama isn't. Zoe desperately tries any and everything to get her man back. She can't stand the thought of him being with Bliss, but little does she know, Bliss wants nothing to do with him. Shamar was ready to stake his claim of the beautiful, Taraji. However, her obsessed, ex, Reggie, has kidnapped her. Shamar has gone from finding love to trying to find out if his woman is dead or alive. Suddenly, a pretty, established young lady falls into Shon's lap right in the midst of him cleaning the streets of those that were disloyal to the Savage organization. He has never fallen for a woman, and when he finds out that she isn't who she has portrayed herself to be, he probably never will. In part 2 of Every Love Story Is Beautiful, But Ours Is Hood, these brothers are forced to turn their savage ways all the way up, as they fight to protect their brand and family. Will their relationships survive the constant threats of the streets? Hell, will their family even survive?

From birth, the Savage brothers were taught by their father, Deuce, that life is like a sandwich; any way you flip it, the bread comes first. They were taught to get money, not fall in love, so they left a wreckage of broken hearts on their road to getting money. Yet, now, as mature men, they realize that you're not rich until you have something that money can't buy. And money certainly cannot buy the women that have stolen these brothers' hard and stubborn hearts. Taye "City" Savage and Akira White's love story started in the projects. Ten years ago, they met when Akira was only a young girl and City was a grown man getting his hustle started. City and Akira's bond was strong, and their fate was inevitable, so they thought. However, before their bound could be sealed, life happened. They were torn apart by unimaginable circumstances, and they never saw one another again until a decade later. Yet, by that time, both City and Akira were involved, but they weren't so loyal to Nova and Davion that they could ignore the passion in their hearts that they still harbored for one another. The only thing that ever mattered to Keandre "Money" Savage was the hustle. He had never fallen in love, not even with his girlfriend of five years, Zoe Moore. Money and Zoe had the typical hood love that involved lots of fussing, fighting, and other women. Yet, Zoe was the only one in the relationship that was in love. Money only kept her by his side because she was the last woman standing. Along the way, he had ruined Zoe with every woman that he cheated on her with, and every lie he told. Now, Money is finally ready to shed his immature ways and settle down. Yet, Zoe finds herself in a desperate state of mind when she realizes that she is not the woman that Money has chosen to settle down with. Shamar Savages' only love has been his love for art. When his brothers financed his baby, Savage Ink, his only focus was his tattoo shop. Yet, he soon realizes that despite not even wanting it, he was falling for his friend and frequent dip, Taraji Green. However, Taraji had the same mindset as Shamar. Her only focus was becoming the baddest hair stylist in Chicago; not love. The last thing she wanted was a committed relationship with anyone, not even one of the infamous Savage brothers. Sometimes, the last thing a person wants to do is fall in love, but love sucks them in any way. That is exactly what happens with these Savage brothers and the women that adore them. As life always has it, love ain't that easy to obtain, especially when loving a man that was raised by the streets and whose first love is the hustle. In yet another urban tale by Jessica N. Watkins, death, sex, and chaos leads to unforeseen tragedy and unexpected love.

"At some point in her life, almost every girl falls in love with the wrong man..." Latrice, Victoria, and Lyric are lost in Chicago's love diversions. Victoria seems to have a handle on her recent break up with her long-term beau, Taij. Rather than crying into her pillow every night, she's in the arms of one new piece after the next; turning her rage into sexual expression that earns her constant potential with the luxury of no-strings attached. Victoria's new control of her heart terribly clashes with Vince's undeniable interest in being more than her next booty call. However, Victoria's refusal to commit does not keep Vince from trying desperately to blow up the wall that she has rebuilt around her heart. As Victoria runs from Vince's attempts to woo her, Latrice has done the unthinkable: fell in love with the booty-call. After the unfortunate conclusion of her affairs with Damion and Tunde, Amiel was the perfect replacement; except for the pregnant wife and kid. Now she's ready for him to man up; to prove that he truly loves her by giving her the commitment and relationship that she needs, or move on. As Latrice dreams of commitment and marriage to the unavailable Amiel, Lyric and Bradley are preparing for the real deal. As Bradley and Lyric begin their happily ever after in the Beverly community of Illinois, Bradley is under the impression that he has chosen the perfect wife-to-be. Lyric struggles with this label as she figures out a way to quietly end the on-going love affair between her and Veronica; an affair that she has successfully perpetrated to her fiance as a simple platonic friendship. This madness entitled Love Sick is only the beginning of this erotic tale. A sea of characters add their own two cents of drama and donate to the shocking and heartrending end of this cycle of affairs, obsession, and despair. With insertions of tantalizing eroticism, Love Sick is your ideal entertaining, emotive, and erotic daily retreat.

Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men—bodies exploited through slavery and segregation, and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’s attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences, from Howard University to Civil War battlefields, from the South Side of Chicago to Paris, from his childhood home to the living rooms of mothers whose children’s lives were taken as American plunder. Beautifully woven from personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me clearly illuminates the past, bracingly confronts our present, and offers a transcendent vision for a way forward.
