Twenty-something-year-old Raven Jackson has been broken and battered, used and abused, and often mistreated for way too long. Now, she only wishes to receive what her pure heart desires: love and happiness. The pain from her tumultuous past has held her back from doing so. Carrying the baggage of nearly losing her mother to drugs and years of an abusive relationship, Raven is weighed down and at her wit's end. She wants better, she needs better. What will she do when better is presented to her? Former hoodlum August Warren's traumatic childhood troubles seemed to follow him into his adulthood. Struggling to find a way out, August embarks on a journey of self-redemption. Like Raven, he yearns and dreams of a new way of living. He's doing everything in his power to see to it that he experiences the life that he's always wanted. While on a hustler's mission, unexpected love comes around. After meeting the woman of his dreams, he realizes that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. If only she's willing to travel that dark road with him. When things suddenly take a challenging turn, will Raven and August be able to stand the test of time?
