Niya

Do you know who you are? Are you comfortable in your skin? Outed by her best friend in front of the whole neighborhood, Niya is trying to come to terms with being a lesbian. When she falls for her straight neighbor Jamilla, there is no more denying who she really is. Niya will do whatever it takes to prove her love, even if it means taking a life. What will happen when family issues, fame, the struggle for love, and reality set in? How will Niya deal with a hip-hop career as she tries to repair her broken heart and family issues?

Signing with Green Note Records may just bring fulfillment and love to Niya when the sexy R & B diva Brazil Noelle swoops in and aims for her heart. Niya has always been the hero, but is she willing to be saved? Will her feelings for Jamilla block what could actually be her chance to get back the love she always gives? 

Jamilla is drowning in the reality of her home life. She is forced to face a real-life monster on a daily basis, and the shame of her past is slowly killing everything beautiful about her. Just when she thinks life isn’t worth living, she befriends Niya and becomes confused by the extremely close, unconventional friendship and the high sexual tension that sends her head spinning. Will her fling with a male “straighten” her out for good, or will it help her to realize that love has no boundaries? How long can this game of friendship last when love is the stronger opponent?

Join the tormented twosome on an undeniable thrill ride as they travel down the rocky road of self-discovery. Niya and Jamilla will combat their fears, violence, distractions, extortion, love, denial, family, and sometimes each other, in this emotionally charged and action-packed coming-of-age tale.
