The Story:

Brixton (Brix) and Cynnamon (Cyn) appeared to have the perfect life. They lived in the prestigious town of Christenbury Hills, a place where black businesses and black love flourish. But after four years of marriage, Cynnamon walked away, claiming Brix was more committed to his job than to her.

Now, Brixton is determined to win her back. Since he never told his parents about their nine-month separation, he convinces Cynnamon to pretend they're still together during their upcoming visit. Secretly, he hopes the charade will rekindle the love they once shared.

Will his plan be enough to bring them back together?

Snow In Love With You

Setting: Christenbury Hills

The Story:

Denarius and Erah and grew up together. They go waaay back. Their mothers were pregnant at the same time. They grew up in the same neighborhood – same schools. Same colleges. You don’t find friendship like theirs anymore. But…

They’re twenty-four now and Denarius is beginning to wonder why they’ve never tried to be anything more. He knows Erah is totally against a relationship, so he makes a bet with her that if it snows on new year’s day, she has to agree to go on a date with him. Since it usually never snows in Christenbury Hills that early, Erah agrees. Whether it snows or not, she is determined on not falling for him and ruining their lifelong friendship.

What Belongs To Me

Setting: Christenbury Hills - Black Mountain

The Story:

I could’ve never imagined I’d be promised to a mafia boss.

I was hired as a caretaker for his ailing father.

Nothing more. Nothing less.

His son – nobody likes him. In fact, everybody’s scared of him, including me. He doesn’t hide the fact that he doesn’t like me. So, when his father puts it in his will that we have to marry, I’m floored. There’s no way I’m going to be stuck with a mean, ruthless thug who thinks the world revolves around him.

But he won’t let me leave.
