BETWEEN HEAVEN AND COMPTON| 18+

Her father taught her to fear men like him. He taught her to want everything she was told to run from. Y/N has spent her entire life being the perfect preacher’s daughter. She knows how to pray. How to behave. How to keep her head down. She knows exactly who she’s supposed to be. Then she arrives in Compton. For the first time, nobody knows her as the preacher’s daughter. Nobody is watching her every move. Nobody is telling her who she has to become. And that’s where she meets Eric “Eazy-E” Wright. He’s everything she’s been warned about. A hustler. A rapper. A man with a dangerous reputation and a smile that makes her forget every rule she’s ever learned. He shouldn’t want her. She’s too sheltered. Too innocent. Too different from the women he’s used to. But there’s something about Y/N that gets under his skin. And there’s something about Eazy that makes her wonder if being a good girl was ever really what she wanted. What begins with stolen glances becomes late-night conversations. Conversations become secrets. Secrets become touches that last a little too long. And suddenly, the preacher’s daughter is caught between the life she was raised to live… and the man who makes her want to burn it all down. But Compton isn’t a fairytale. Eazy’s world comes with loyalty, enemies, fame, temptation, and consequences. And Y/N is about to discover that falling in love with someone doesn’t mean you can save them. Sometimes, loving someone means getting close enough to see the parts of them nobody else does. The wounds. The fear. The ambition. The darkness. And sometimes… the person who makes you question everything you believe is the person who changes you forever. She was raised to find heaven. He taught her what it felt like to want something else.

VOLATILE | 18+

People always talk about love like it’s gentle. Like it arrives with flowers tucked behind your ear, handwritten letters, and soft music playing somewhere in the background. They never tell you that sometimes love sounds like police sirens in the distance. Sometimes it smells like cigarette smoke clinging to an expensive leather jacket. Sometimes it looks like bruised knuckles wrapped around your trembling hand. If someone had told me the day I boarded that plane to China that I would fall in love with the kind of man mothers warned their daughters about, I would’ve laughed. Not because I didn’t believe in love. Because I believed in stories. The kind where the shy girl meets the sweet boy in a bookstore. Where they bond over favorite novels, share coffee on rainy afternoons, and kiss beneath glowing city lights before the credits roll. I had read hundreds of those stories. Watched every cheesy romance I could find. Memorized the confessions. The happy endings. I thought I knew exactly what love looked like. I was wrong. The first time I saw Rain, he didn’t look like destiny. He looked like trouble. The kind of trouble people stepped aside for without being asked. The kind that carried silence like a weapon. Dark eyes that never lingered on anyone. Hands scarred from fights I couldn’t imagine. A face too beautiful for someone whose reputation made strangers lower their voices whenever his name was spoken. Rain. That’s what everyone called him. As if a storm had somehow learned to walk. I should have walked away. Any sensible person would have. Instead… I looked back. And somehow… He looked back too. That single glance would unravel everything I thought I knew about myself. About love. About home. About who gets to be loved. Because I wasn’t just another international student. I was a Black woman trying to find her place in a country that often reminded me I didn’t belong. And he wasn’t just another handsome stranger.
