Nestled in his lavish home in Chesterfield, Missouri, he captures women with his wealth, charm, nine-plus inches of goodness, and stunning good looks. Although his bed is never empty, his heart is. He feels nothing for the women who love him dearly, and continues his search for the “perfect” one.</p>
<p>When Scorpio Valentino, an attractive, seductive and charming woman saunters into his view, she puts Jaylin through some changes – changes that may cause him to recognize his feelings for Nokea, another woman who has been putting up with him for nine long, rocky years.</p>
<p>Jaylin’s decision to “man up” might be too late, and even the idea of him possibly turning his player’s card doesn’t move Nokea. She’s already making plans to share her life with another man, and as they stand at the altar, Jaylin makes his heart-warming plea for her love. The question is will this naughty boy get what he wants?</p>

Now see what Edd McNair, Keisha Ervin, and Brenda Hampton can do when they join forces to bring three stories in the latest installment of Girls from da Hood.</p>
<p>“Queen Pynn” by Keisha Ervin<br />
Being married to a notorious gangsta rapper Sean Pynn isn’t as glamorous as it appears to be. Behind closed doors, Queen is dealing with knock-down drag-out fights, verbal abuse, and neglect. When her bodyguard, Ahsim, comes into the picture, things change in a hurry.</p>
<p>“Trick, Don’t Treat” by Brenda Hampton<br />
When a man thinks his woman is cheating, he keeps tabs on her. When a woman thinks her man is cheating, she calls Jakki. Rochel “Jakki” Thomas’s way of catching a man in the act is a little risky, but she’s worth every penny.</p>
<p>“Breaking Down a Brickhouse” by Edd McNair.<br />
Niecy Brickhouse and her twin sister are living a glamorous life – until Naquel is shot by their older sister’s boyfriend. Everyone is calling it a suicide, but Niecy knows the painful truth about her sister’s death, and it sets her on a dangerous, self-destructive path. Will she be able to overcome her depression, or will her new life on the streets be the death of Niecy?</p>

After partying and grindin’ in Las Vegas and clearing more than $100,000 and a bag of stolen diamonds, twenty-two-year-old Kennedy Sanchez, a beautiful street-smart single mom, and her cousin Nina fly back home to New York. Later that night, Kennedy gets a call that Nina is being beaten up by her boyfriend – again. Kennedy rushes over to help, but it’s too late: Nina dies in Kennedy’s arms after making her promise to take care of her children.</p>
<p>Stepping up to the plate, Kennedy soon becomes the mother of three more kids and moves them into a Harlem brownstone. She knows she needs to refocus her life, and gets her chance when she meets Chaz, a successful hip-hop artist who sees star quality written all over her. She’s offered the chance to become a rapper and leave the streets behind – or at least shift to another kind of grind. But once in the music world, Kennedy realizes that the setting may have changed, but the hustle remains the same.</p>
