Phoenix
I’m a socially awkward chaos demon who never quite fits in. Not even in my own family. But I’m also an accomplished classical musician. So I’m moving to Atlanta to join the Black Diamonds Quartet—a group of talented, female musicians who feel like found family when my own feels so distant. I never expected to fall for my temporary roommate, Xachari Locke. He gets me in ways no one ever has. X is the first man I’ve been genuinely attracted to in a really long time. I trust him. And did I mention that I’m a twenty-nine year old virgin, and I want X to be my first?
Xachari
I’ve spent a lifetime atoning for the sins of my past. Now, I’m finally getting my big break. I’m moving to New York to be a record producer on the highly-anticipated comeback album of a hip-hop legend. Only, I never imagined that Phoenix Jefferson would turn my world upside down. She’s brilliant, funny, and brutally honest. Nix brings out a completely different side of me, and being with her feels like home.
That’s the problem.
Her future is here in Atlanta. Mine is in New York. How do I choose between the career I’ve always wanted and the woman I can’t live without?
