Taylen was a dope boy's dream, but far from your typical project chick. Growing up, she learned the hustle that only the streets could teach-gritty, relentless, and real. She chased her dream of marrying young and building a family, but what she never saw coming was the nightmare she'd have to endure: a husband who lied, cheated, and tore her down, one bruise at a time. Between the side chicks, late-night calls from unknown numbers, and endless arguments, Taylen had finally reached her breaking point. After a gut-wrenching divorce, she's ready to reclaim her life, determined to rise from the ashes, believing the worst is finally behind her. Just as she starts putting her life back together, a stranger steps in and shakes up her entire world-opening doors she never thought she'd enter again. Ace Pierre runs his city with power and confidence, a king among men. Women were never a problem for him; they flocked to his magnetic energy. But real relationships? They weren't part of his game plan. With a baby on the way with his so-called baby mama, situationship, or whatever she is, Kamry, Ace isn't sure if they're even ready for such a big commitment. Between the trust issues and secrets that linger, Ace does what he can to make it work-until a call from one of his realty companies changes everything. Stepping into a situation he didn't expect, he bumps into Taylen, a woman whose presence alone leaves him breathless and his carefully constructed life in jeopardy. As their worlds collide, Taylen and Ace find themselves tangled in a whirlwind of unexpected passion, raw emotion, and a connection that neither saw coming. But with old flames, lies, and jealous eyes watching their every move, can they fight against the odds to make love work? Or will the weight of the past and the drama that haunts them prove too much to bear? If you're a fan of African American romance, good girls and unhinged Alpha men, second chance romance, thug love, and hood drama, you'll fall in love with "It's Always That One Project Chick" by Jenica Johnson.
