Bossin' Up: An Atlanta Love Story

Dejuana never imagined herself being someone’s ‘baby mama’, but thanks to Antwan, that was exactly what she had become. Name calling, awkward stares from her peers, nagging feelings of self-doubt, and a life full of hard times and struggles are only some of the things that Dejauna fell victim to the moment she got pregnant. With her whole life ahead of her, grasping hold to the fact that she’s about to be a teenage mother is next to impossible.

Against all odds, Dejuana makes a way for herself in the cold, cruel world and things in her life turn for the better, until the day Danarius Carter comes onto the scene. Danarius was the dude that every dude wanted to be, and every chick had to have, including Dejauna. Little did she know being with him would come with more heartache than she’d bargained for. Participating in one fight after another, practically sharing him with every girl in the hood, and dealing with more drama than she cared for, Dejauna was on the verge of giving up. Initially, she’d thought they would be happier but clearly, she’d been wrong.

As a popular ladies’ man, Danarius had no plans on falling in love. In fact, he stayed as far away from it as he could. Had he known Dejauna would be the one to flip his whole world around, he would have left her where she was. He fought as hard as he could against the feelings he felt brewing, but failed miserably. He fell head first into a love that he didn’t even recognize. It felt good, but so wrong at the same time. Because of this, he had to let her go. With no other reason, except that he just wasn’t ready.

Finally fed up with the other chick and the drama it festered, Dejauna let it go. On the first thing smoking to Atlanta, Dejauna looked forward to her fresh start with her cousin Mia down in the A.

Mia has True, who was that ni***! In his opinion, he had all that he needed. There was the love of his life Mia, and then there was the rest of world. Though on most days this was enough, there was still that irritating emptiness that ate at him daily. All the money and the power that he had couldn’t make up for what his was missing. Being the only one that knew what he longed for would never become his reality, he lived each day as his last. Which had approached faster than he expected, when Mia caught him cheating that resulted in her falling straight into the arms of KinTrell a Boss of the South.

Kin Trell ran the city side by side with Lu, Lu was the face while KinTrell played the background. Chilled, laid back but most of all deadly was the only way KinTrell could be described. KinTrell was looking for something but it sure wasn’t love when Mia entered his life. When Dejauna joined Mia in the A she came along with messages that were about to be heard loud and clear.
