Dream Janay Richardson is far from the bold, outspoken BBWs you see owning their confidence these days. Raised under her grandmother’s strict church rules, Dream was taught to keep her skirts long, her legs closed, and her innocence intact. Books and ambition have been her safe space, with her eyes locked on becoming a social worker. Shy, quiet, and reserved—Dream has lived her life in the shadows. But when fate throws her in the path of a man like Nas Amir Lawson, her whole world is about to be flipped upside down.
Nas Lawson was born into power. The son of a kingpin and groomed to rule, he carries himself like the boss he was destined to be. Behind the clean-cut prep school look is a man who commands respect with every step—and makes sure no disrespect goes unanswered. With his parents stepping back and him and his brother Kolby stepping up to run the family’s cartel, Nas has no time for distractions, least of all love.
But then there’s Dream. Sweet, innocent, untouched. The kind of woman who has no place in his world yet somehow feels like the one thing he can’t let go.
When innocence collides with the streets, sparks fly—but so do dangers. Will Dream’s sheltered heart survive Nas’s ruthless lifestyle? Or will loving a mob boss be more than this virgin BBW can handle?
