Sheila Price doesn't look like what she's been through. She's a marketing exec who worked her way up to the top of her field. Her world revolves around her son and her job, and life is good, until she meets Anthony Bailey. Anthony seems to be everything Sheila's ever wanted in a man. He's a loving, supportive entrepreneur who takes care of his kids. Ripped from the position she thought she held as Anthony's main chick, Sheila is forced to fight for a spot as his #2. But when Sheila pairs him up on a business venture with her best friend, Delilah, a party girl whose motto is Seize the Day, she's reminded of the thin line between friends and enemies. Sheila finds herself unwillingly trapped in a love triangle that quickly becomes a square. Anthony has her heart, but also has a wife and a secret affair with another woman. Tyrone Price was okay with being on the side. He had a felony charge on his back, so his main focus was on getting his life on track; he didn't want the drama that came with being in a relationship.

So when Tyrone met his coworker Samantha, who he later found out was Anthony's wife, he thought he'd found the perfect "situationship." Samantha caked him, sexed him crazy, and took all of the other issues home to her husband. He didn't expect to get her pregnant. But he was a man and was ready to step up and be the father his children deserved. He was even considering marrying Samantha as soon as her divorce was finalized. But Samantha would never fully have Tyrone to herself. His heart belonged to someone who held him down when he was locked up, Tammy Alexander. When Anthony promises to leave both other women alone for Sheila, does she find herself caught in his trap once again? Will Delilah take being dropped for Sheila or will they have hell to pay?

Thirsty
Thirsty
The thirst is real... Sharing is caring, so Qadira didn’t understand why her sister Phoenix had such a problem when she wanted to share her man. He was everything. Handsome, with charisma, and savage. The ideal being to rule the Kingdom of Ọlọrun by her side. She was willing to do anything to get his attention, and that could cause problems within her family, and the Kingdom. Napoleon loved Qadira from the first moment that he laid eyes on her, and felt the need to protect her. He didn’t see her as the vicious, spoiled, selfish Goddess-in-Training (GIT) that her reputation pegged her as. But when he found out that his best friend, Charm, had her attention, he stepped back, out of respect. But when the opportunity presented itself, he leapt at the opportunity to show her that he was the man for her. Even if only in her dreams. Sometimes, the love we want isn’t the love we need. While Qadira has her eyes on Charm, Napoleon is the one who can truly care for her heart. But will Qadira see that he’s her real Prince Charming? Or will her reckless, thirsty actions cost her true love, and destroy her family.

The Turning Point
The Turning Point
Erickah hasn't had the easiest life, but things seem to finally be turning around for her. She has a career she loves that takes her all over the world. She's got her man, Anderius, who she sees a bright future with. Then, on what should've been a happy holiday season, everything comes crashing down around her and she gets some news that she'd wished she never had to receive. Instead of letting it break her, she decides to channel her late mother's spirit, and overcome all the adversity she's facing. But, on her first night, things take another- very unexpected- turn. Anderius has a woman who had his back, invested in his career, and had even booked his first big gig, leading up to his album's release. But, one bad decision could cost him everything, and prove you can never trust a big butt and a smile. When he tries to regain the most precious thing in his life that he'd cost himself, he ends up risking losing even more- and the one person he could've turned to, has now turned on him. Shaquita was looking for a come-up, by any means necessary. The kinda woman who would betray her own mother to get the latest pair of Louboutin's, she catches the big fish that she's had her eyes on for a while. But, her actions soon come to prove that karma is real, and she looses more than she ever stood to gain. Daevion Thornton and his wife Amberle own The Turning Pointe, the hottest spot in town, loved by humans, but created for a more underserved population- vampires and other things that go bump in the night. When booking an up-and-coming artist, there's more on their agenda than a party. But things go left, and they're left taking matters into their own hands- and revealing themselves to the last person that they'd planned to. Devin Deville is the producer every artist wants to book studio time with. He's got his mind on his money and his focus on his career, and women are only used for one thing- providing hot vocals on his tracks. (What did you think he wanted them for?) But one night, a woman catches his eye that he feels was meant to be his forever. He had no idea just how real that statement would be for him, sooner than later. Blending music, vampires, and drama is a recipe for desire, disaster, and dope lyrics. One day, one encounter, one decision, can change a life- or an afterlife- forever. What happens when each of them experiences The Turning Point.
