Thaddeus "Teflon" Hayes grew up in a loving two-parent household, but his fascination with the allure of money, power, and respect led him to the drug game at a young age. Now a powerful figure with control over his city, Teflon’s obsession with power spills into all aspects of his life—especially his relationships with women. However, when he meets the strong, independent Indigo Pearson, he's captivated by her resistance to his charm. Indigo, who watched her mother suffer in a toxic relationship, refuses to depend on men and has built her life on independence, dancing for tips and setting her own terms.

Despite her initial resistance, Indigo begins to believe Teflon might offer more than the casual relationships she’s used to. But just as she starts to let her guard down, their world is shattered by a brutal attack that leaves them both physically scarred and deeply shaken. As Teflon grows paranoid, tensions rise within his crew, and Indigo faces her own battles with her younger sister, who has entered a dangerous world at Club Nova.

Not only that, but betrayal lurks close to home, forcing Teflon to confront the traitor in his midst. With loyalty tested and secrets exposed, Indigo and Teflon must navigate treacherous waters to see if their relationship can withstand the mounting obstacles—or if they’ll ultimately fall victim to the violence and mistrust surrounding them.
