After being abandoned at just sixteen years old by her mother and left in an empty roach infested apartment with no food, money, or electricity, Lexus is feeling hopeless. She spends many nights lying on a filthy hardwood floor crying for her mother in the dark and wondering where her next meal is going to come from.
All of her thoughts and worries suddenly vanish when she wakes up one morning and decides that she will no longer be a victim of her circumstances.
With her best friend, Karma, in tow, she turns to the pole and becomes one of the hottest strippers in H-Town, dominating every strip club in the city with her bombshell body and gorgeous good looks. Her name rings more bells than a school alarm, and it gives her confidence.
Over the years, Lexus learns to tuck her feelings away and show no love until she meets a real bad boy, who steps in like Prince Charming and quickly humbles her.
Dino is cool, charming and Rich! His smile is so electrifying, it can knock any woman off of her feet, but his playboy persona is put on hold when he and his best friend, Kaine, show up at a bachelor party one night. As soon as he lays eyes on, Lexus he makes up his mind that he wants her and her only. But when he finally get her, he realizes that Lexus comes with more complications than he could have ever imagined.
Although Lexus falls hard for Dino, she's scared to love him out of fear that he will unexpectedly pack up and leave her the same way that her mother did.
Dino does everything in his power to love and take care of Lexus, but her hard exterior makes it tough, and it's only so much he can take. What Lexus doesn't know is that Dino can relate to what she's been through and knows her pain all too well, but when she finds out that Dino is just as damaged as she is, the tables unexpectedly turn...
Now, Lexus is left with the decision to either be there for her man or abandon the one person who loves her deeply and leave him with the same scars that are engraved in her heart.
Will Lexus put her fears to the side and allow Dino to love her the way that she deserves to be loved, or will she throw it all away because of her heartbreaking past?
