A South Side Love Story 2
PLEASE NOTE: The first two installments of this series is not my usual chaotic, Urban fiction. Yet, they are necessary to develop and understand what’s to come. This series is a saga, so please be patient. This is also a re-release of the Love, Sex, Lies series, published nearly ten years ago. So, these characters are close to my heart. They deserved a makeover.
For some, love doesn't happen overnight. For many, their journey to love comes after loss, trauma, betrayal, and a lot of lessons learned. THIS is Lyric, Vic, and Tricey's journey to everlasting love.

In this raunchy, romantic soap-opera–style tale of promiscuity and corruption, Jessica continues this saga with the usual drama, romance, and loveable bad boys. Yet, with an ending that will leave you breathless.
The only thing on nineteen-year-old Star Anderson’s mind is taking care of her son, by any means necessary. However, by means of breaking her back at a minimum wage nine-to-five is not an option. Therefore, she follows in the footsteps of her friend, Roxie, down a path of scamming, tricking, and robberies. Though this path seems to be paved with fast and easy money, tragedy strikes when plans become hurried and messy.
Star’s big sister, Tricey, attempts to clean up Star’s mess while fighting with her new and loving beau. He suddenly wants her to leave Chicago with him with no explanation. Though she is deeply concerned about her boyfriend's sudden need to leave Chicago, Tricey is so focused on rescuing Star that being a lovesick puppy and following him out of state is not an option.
However, Lyric doesn’t mind being lovesick. She and her boyfriend are knee-deep in love and the “lifestyle”. Their relationship is full of excitement, raunchiness, and spontaneity. Yet, once he settles into the lifestyle and presents Lyric with an ultimatum, she is forced to decide how knee-deep in love and the lifestyle she is willing to be.
While Lyric contemplates allowing her heart to make her decision instead of her mind, Tricey’s bitterness drives her to secretly stalk her boyfriend, which leads to a revelation of hidden deception and the biggest blow of deceit she has ever experienced.
