All her life, around the way girl Ruejae has received crumbs from the world that's left a stain on her perception of what she deserves. On the verge of blurring lines with a long-time friend, she is ready to see what's on the other side of incessant flirting, weighty promises, and ravishing fantasies shared over a recorded phone line. Cutting ties wasn't a part of the deal but when calls go unanswered and promises are forgotten, she has no choice but to move forward with the shame, embarrassment, and insecurity of loving a man the world warned her she shouldn't.

With roots in abandonment and being labeled a troublemaker at a young age, Kamari undergoes a total identity shift once he's given a second chance to build a life he and his loved ones can all be proud of. When he's called on by the mother who abandoned him to help save his younger brother from going down a path he knows all too well, his heart won't let him tell her no. When he returns home with the love of his life, his only goal was to expand his business and mentor his brother. The last thing he expects is to collide with the pen pal from his past that has ties to his family. His heart was never supposed to be available, but after his lover crosses a line he has forbidden, he finds himself pursuing a girl the world says is off limits.
