Reign's life seems perfect if you're on the outside looking in, but the reality is far from it. She is full of secrets. As they begin to reveal themselves, she is abruptly separated from her family.

Reign was born into a life of chaos. When she loses her drug-addicted mother during her birth, her father, Montae Jackson, a well-known drug dealer in Chicago, takes her in. Reign and her siblings are being raised in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, where she meets her long-time boyfriend, Mikal, and her two best friends, Jayla and Marie.

Demarco "Sno" Wright, born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, is a kingpin in the making. His life has always been perfect as one of eight children of the infamous King Nate Wright. His father takes him, his brother, Moe, and his best friend, Blu, under his wing and molds them to be kings of the South.

It was written in stone and inevitable that Reign and Sno's lives would one day collide. Their trials and tribulations are numerous, but their friendship and love is something special.
