To the untrained eye, Jericho Diggs' life seems a tragedy. His down low sex-capades have been exposed. He is HIV positive. His wife is in jail. His daughter lives with his wife's sister and her husband, whom he has never liked. And as if this were not enough, the purest love he never allowed himself to embrace in Jordan has finally closed its eyes in sad solitude, and after years of neglect, disappeared before he ever opened his eyes. In light of his misfortune, he decides to move back home to Mississippi, and his sole mission is to gain custody of his daughter. That is until he runs into Adrian. And when the mystery that binds them both to Jordan blossoms into a complicated attraction, they unexpectedly find themselves tangled in the chaotic webs of each other's pasts where secrets, lies and devastating revelations ultimately lead Jericho to the kiss that has perhaps been awaiting him his entire life.
