Lakewood is a city on the rise. Freshly cut lawns. Restored homes. Booming businesses. All appears well but as the city booms, jealousy against the family responsible for the good times rises. Jerome is heir to a multi-million-dollar real estate company. But when someone kidnaps his mother, enemies make their move to take over. No one is trustworthy. In this dark time, Jerome finds he must rely on Goddess, a new ally. But is she really on his side? Or is she is against him? Can Jerome figure out who snatched his mom? Or will his enemies get to him before he solves the mystery? There's intimacy. There's jealousy. There's sorrow. Blood will stain the city's concrete before it is all over.
