A new marriage is always a blessing. But when you’re a Jamaican drug lord with a wife who use to be a hit woman and top notch drug dealer, let’s just say things can get a little difficult. Kingston and Shade Thomas just settled into their new marriage, welcomed a new baby, and thought life just might become normal for a change. WRONG ANSWER! Actions of their past deeds are coming back around the corner and vengeance is on everyone’s plate. Kingston’s daughter’s denial about her parents’ divorce has her up in arms. And her mother, Cynthia’s, diabolical way of manipulating her daughter is causing problems with her new step-mother, Shade. Can both sides of this new blended family withstand all of the madness that will come their way? Will Shade be able to tolerate the demands that Kingston has put on her? Or will their marriage crack before the ink dries on the marriage license? Only time will tell...if tragedy doesn’t strike first!

The plane has gone missing with George, Mary and Palms. Michael and John had come to St. Louis to tell Kingston of his parents’ fate, but they didn’t expect him to flip out and trash his house. Shade is upset because her mother is missing as well, but she knows the most important thing is to calm down her husband before he completely goes crazy. Tempers are high and the pressure begins to take effect on Kingston and Shade’s relationship. Shade continues to make foolish choices and one big argument between her and Kingston sets off a chain of events that just might push Kingston over the edge. Dessy has the upper hand and has done a good job of staying out of site. However, Dessy is struggling with keeping Yvette under control. Yvette’s jealousy is causing problems in his house with Kimmy. And when Yvette witnesses Kimmy and Kingston looking cozy at the lounge, she figures this little information could work to her advantage. And she plans on telling Dessy to get Kimmy out of his house. Will Dessy succeed in killing Shade once he gets his hands on her? And will Kingston be able to focus on finding his parents when he has to concentrate on finding his wife? Kingston and Shade’s love is pushed to the limit when the clash of the Titans of tempers squares up for battle.

Now captured by LeCroix on their plane, Kingston and Shade have to figure out a way to not only free themselves but their parents. They put up one helluva fight but LeCroix and his men were able to subdue the treacherous husband and wife team. They gave LeCroix a preview of what all the people of Kingston, Jamaica were talking about. And he realized that Shade was the flicker to the flame of Kingston and his emotions. Cynthia’s house had become the prison for all of her naysayers and they would soon find out that Chauncey’s rotting corpse is being kept in a room just down the hall. Cynthia is happy that Kingston was caught because she wanted to gloat about the fact that she married Chauncey and will soon be the person in control of his fate. However, she underestimates the love that Shade has for Kingston. And will soon find the one person that she hates more than Shade; her mother Palms, will be the one person who continues to get in her way. What will happen when everyone is forced to sit at the dinner table together and LeCroix is the master of ceremonies? Will secrets that loom over people’s heads be revealed to a room full of shocked attendees? Will Cynthia’s devious hand be revealed by a surprised dinner guest who showed up to dinner unbeknownst to everyone except LeCroix? And how will Kingston and Shade respond when the stranger reveals an unforeseen blow to the loving couple? Family is everything to Kingston and he’ll be damned if his goes down in flames!
