As the sheltered daughter of a small town pastor, Elise has spent her entire life conforming to impossible expectations, purity sermons, and the constant fear of embarrassing her parents and the church. Following her heart and dreams were never an option. Wanting him was a temptation she knew to bury.

Rashawn has been a constant in Elise’s life since elementary school, her brother’s best friend, the man who chose the streets over salvation. He was everything Elise was taught to avoid and everything her heart refuses to forget.

Their secret began with one reckless summer that her mind and body tried hard to forget. Fear of judgement and devotion to appearances keep her away. Now she is left to reckon with the cost of obedience, the pain of silence, and whether faith was meant to act as a cage instead of a choice. Step into this African American Urban Romance where faith, family secrets, and forbidden love collide.
