Every little girl dreams of being a Princess, marrying a Prince and living in a mansion. Grace saw this dream for herself, born in Jamaica she lived the life. Her Dad ran the drug trade in Jamaica. But fate stepped in and changed this dream for her. Grace was forced to leave her Paradise home due to a shadowy figure that turned her life upside down. Settling in America was tough for her, until she met up with Selena, and found out her Pops knew and adored her father. He sees the fire in her eyes, and decides to teach her the drug game so that she could follow in her father's footsteps. He also makes her aware of the shadowy figure that murdered her father. Armed with a name, she accepts the challenge of learning the game, in hopes that it will get her to where she needs to be. Close enough to the man that killed her father. Faced with nothing but opposition and treachery, she rises to the top. She meets a man who has a similar background, or so she thought. Being betrayed on every turn on a quest to find this man, she receives heart ache after heart ache. Will she get close to this man her crew takes her out? Or will she fall victim to her own murderous plot?
