Kambridge Lewis is the definition of a smart girl; valedictorian of the best private school in the state, graduated Magna Cum Laude from college, and owns her own store at the age of twenty-two. Even after all of that, it seems like it’s not enough for Judge Kason Lewis, her father. The relationship between Kam and her father is the reason why she is confused on what love really is, since he beats her down mentally and physically…that is, until she meets the foul-mouthed Malice Bailey.

Phoenix ‘Malice’ Bailey is the youngest of the two Bailey brothers who wants to make his own living, his own way, instead of the way his dad wants him to…the drug game. Malice had to put himself through school using money that he gets from his special service and his good friend, Catherine Jenson.

To them, Malice and Kam met by chance, but their fathers saw an opportunity to ignite an old beef between the two. Using both of their kids in a dangerous feud can only lead to one thing for these two: love or death.

Kam and Malice being friends comes with a lot of secrets, including two big ones: Kam’s boyfriend, Connor Wiles, and Malice’s good friend, who wants to be more than a good friend.

In A Malice Love, you find out the lengths to which people go for love, respect, and money.

Deciding to focus on his relationship with Kambridge, Malice has left a bad taste in several different people’s mouths, and things get even worse when Malice decides that Kambridge should have his last name.

Between trying to balance his love life with Kambridge and keep his other life a secret, Malice feels like his life is spiraling out of control.

Things go from bad to worse when Kambridge receives a package in the mail that can turn her whole world upside down. Will the contents of the package be too much for Kambridge to handle, or will she face her problems head-on?

n this bone-chilling and blood-spilling finale, you see that people will do anything to keep their secrets safe and their livelihoods protected.

All of Malice’s secrets are on display for his wife and the world to see, but that is not stopping him from trying to work on his marriage. Realizing that his wife is not budging, he finds a new friend, but will she live up to Kam’s potential, or will Malice realize that he has more fight in him to get his wife back?

After she is released from the hospital, she tries to steer clear of her husband, but he is making that impossible by popping up everywhere and stalking her on social media. When she notices that Phoenix may have a new girlfriend, feelings that she thought were gone came rushing back at once.

Will Kam still go through with the divorce, or will she realize that true love is worth fighting for?

Whoever said that the quiet ones are the most deadliest had Mayhem Bailey in mind. According to everyone in the Windy City, Mayhem has an icebox in place of his heart and no lady has ever been able to penetrate it. That is, until he meets Xenobia Bell. Mayhem falls fast and hard for Xenobia, and in his eyes, their relationship is picture-perfect. However, their relationship is ruined when Xenobia does the unthinkable, shattering Mayhem’s heart into a million pieces. That was eight years ago, and the heartache still feels fresh to Mayhem.

Olena Hill, the polar opposite of Mayhem, is the free spirit that mothers warn their sons about. She lives her life unapologetically with no concern for what anyone thinks of her. Olena is content with keeping a rotation of male lovers until she is cornered aggressively by Mayhem, who claims her as his woman. The once-free Olena finds her bright spirit being diminished by the aggressive Mayhem, who craves control and grows enraged when he doesn’t have it. As Olena learns to take the beast as he is, she discovers a new side of Mayhem. That side of Mayhem is keeping a secret from Olena; a secret that has to do with how he became broken in the first place.

Will Mayhem set aside his relationship paranoia to be the man that Olena wants, or will he take Olena down the same path of hurt that Xenobia took him down?

In this second installment of A Mayhem Love, Mayhem finds himself stuck, feeding the fire of an old flame while trying to preserve what he has with his new love. When Nobie shows up asking for financial support from Mayhem, Olena plays the girlfriend card, demanding that he doesn’t give her a dime. Despite her destruction of their relationship, Mayhem has a soft spot for Nobie and doesn’t want her to lose her son. However, Mayhem doesn’t want to lose Olena in the process. In the end, he will be forced to make a choice: Nobie and her family, or Olena, who sees right through her act.

After discovering Nobie’s plans to move back to Chicago, Olena is on edge. Although Mayhem constantly reassures Olena that he is done with his ex, his loyalty isn’t what she’s worried about. It’s not hard to spot a woman with an agenda, and that’s exactly what she believes Nobie has. Refusing to let Nobie take back the relationship she once threw away, Olena works overtime to make sure that she’s the only one he wants, but deep down she fears that in the end, Mayhem’s first love will defeat his last.

From the outside looking in, one would never guess that Franklin Wade has suffered through his share of traumas at the hands of life and circumstance. From a young child up until his teenage years, Frank struggled to find love and was lucky to find it in Alexandria Ware. While the secretive Frank doesn’t make her privy to his past, he loves Alex in his own way and plans to make her part of his future. Frank is convinced that after five years of being together, Alex is the one for him but little does he know, she has an agenda of her own. While dealing with Frank’s emotionally unavailable nature, Alex’s love for him is purely conditional and has an expiration date set on whenever her boyfriend is finished stacking his money. Despite her fleeting feelings for Frank, she has no problem using him as an ATM, but when her boyfriend comes up with a plan for the perfect payday for them, will she end up on the wrong side of Frank’s love story?

While Frank is building with Alex, Taiwan is living in Italy with her sugar daddy of over a decade, Romero Santiago. Being the sugar baby of a well-known cartel leader has its perks, and while Taiwan is enjoying the perks of her lifestyle, she finds herself craving more. As she approaches thirty, expensive trips and shopping trips courtesy of AMEX no longer enthrall her the way they did in her younger years. What Taiwan wants is one of the few things the happily married Romero can’t buy: a family. With a desire to stop sharing someone else’s husband and have one of her own, Taiwan tenders her resignation to a less than pleased Romero. But as a man of means with an endless amount of resources, Romero is able to offer her the deal of a lifetime. The question is, will Taiwan accept?

Former gang member Rubee Bailey changed her life for the better when she became a mother to her daughter, Raylee, and couldn’t have a better father in Bash James. Rubee loves Bash with all her heart, but Bash has some hidden motives of his own when it comes to being with a Bailey. A secret from his pre-Rubee life almost catches up to him, causing him to move differently. When Bash breaks one straw too many, Rubee is sent straight into the arms of another man, with no feelings of remorse. This leaves Rubee asking herself if she’s willing to leave Bash or continue fighting for a lopsided love?

After receiving a botched proposal from Romero, Taiwan sees an opening to leave her sugar daddy and seizes it. Once she’s landed back in her home city, her heart is telling her this is the best decision to make for her happiness, while her heart is also telling her this won't be the last she sees of Romero. Any worries she has dissolve at the appearance of Frank, whose crazy demeanor brings about a strong surge of nostalgia. Taiwan’s main reason for leaving the comfort of her Italian paradise is to build a family of her own. Her only worry is that Romero may come after her to take her back to Italy. The question is, will she return and accept the security that comes with being a kept woman or chase what her heart desires?

Frank is on high alert when it comes to Alex. With the current stress of his relationship wearing him out, Frank is happy to see Taiwan, who hasn’t changed a bit since they last saw each other. He expects her sudden appearance to bring out the worst in Alex but is pleasantly surprised when she makes a proposition that Frank can't refuse. Frank is open to the idea of having his cake and eating it too, so open that he can't see the plan Alex has brewing for the unsuspecting pair. Kharisma has come up with a foolproof plan for the trio to secure the bag and walk away unscathed. The problem is, will they be able to, knowing they will leave behind a trail of broken hearts?

Rubee and Bash’s relationship is on a steep decline, especially with all the time she's been spending with Kade. Kade is loving the attention he's receiving from Rubee, but he's tired of sharing her with a man that doesn’t deserve her. In the end, Rubee is faced with an ultimatum: Bash or Kade. The choice shouldn’t be too hard to make—especially with Bash continuously moving funny—but the decision is enough to make Rubee pause. However, when Rubee starts investigating the father of her child, she makes a startling discovery that flips the script and is enough to change the game. Will Rubee choose the level-headed Kade, or will she continue her tumultuous love affair with Bash that is guaranteed to have her go insane?

Taiwan has finally gotten her freedom and her life back, or so she thinks. After learning more about Frank and his troubled life, she becomes more connected to him than ever. Romero is not one who likes to lose. Romero is not backing down and will do whatever he has to do to get Taiwan back, even if it means taking away the people that she’s closest to.

Frank’s childhood trauma is coming back to haunt him in more ways than one. The last straw is when his trauma causes him to almost hurt someone who he cares about deeply, prompting him to go underground to handle his business and get himself together. When he finally has a grip on his life, another dark secret is revealed, changing his life altogether.

Rubee finds herself devastated after the sudden disappearance of Bash. Kade, fed up with feeling like Rubee is confused about what she wants, makes the decision easy for her. Will Rubee get it together before she loses the best thing that has happened to her and Raylee?

In this explosive, drama-filled finale, devastating secrets are revealed, family ties are severed, and love is put on the line.
