WHOLEHEARTEDLY, THE HOOD

By D'artanya

Occasionally, we meet the love of our lives at the most trying time. Trying to forget and heal, while trying to trust a stranger, will have you second guessing everything.

Jakia has never had a problem trusting herself and she's no stranger to trauma - it follows her. When her sister dies, she jumps right in to care for her nephews. However, she didn't expect her secrets or Hussein to come knocking at her door.

Let Hussein tell it, he's only there for the kids. Most father's side of the family get a bad rep for doing the bare minimum, but not on his watch. Turners take care of Turners. So, when his cousin dies, he's determined to do right by his blood. What he wasn't supposed to do, was fall in love with Jakia... but it happened.

With an overbearing aunt in his ear and a fianc pressuring him to keep his word, choosing Jakia won't be easy. Especially when she has her own walls, exes, and addictions.

The world around these two is chaotic; but what exists between them makes it all a little bit quieter.
