When she attracts the interest of her boyfriend's sworn childhood enemy, Rodney, Chelsea knows she's playing with fire, but she can't resist a baller like Rodney. Her double life doesn't last long, and Chelsea soon realizes the consequences are much worse than she ever realized. Chelsea's boyfriend, Zeek, lives a drama-free life. He's always been a normal, respectful guy, despite living in one of the roughest neighborhoods in DC. But when Chelsea cheats on him, it breaks his heart and changes him for the worst. He decides that hustling is the only way to get respect, so he sets out into the tumultuous streets to get money by any means he can. Zeek's quest becomes fueled by power, greed, and ultimately the love of a woman. Can Chelsea recapture Zeek's broken heart before he fully enters a world where few survive?
