DREAMS OFTEN DIE IN THE PROJECTS.

These four women will do anything to escape the hood.

Aisha has a loving husband who outfits her with all the accessories that scream “hood success.” Now that he’s in jail, she may have to sell something more precious than her designer gear in order to maintain her image.

Devani thinks sleeping with a pro athlete is her way out of the hood until her mother suggests the perfect scheme: become his baby momma. Will the plan force her man to commit?

Molly is so in love with her husband that she doesn’t care if she’s the only white girl in the hood. After letting everyone walk all over her, however, she might be forced to give back all the abuse she’s taken.

Lexi has four broke baby daddies. Finally married to Mr. Right-in-Every-Way-But-in-the-Bedroom, she’s determined to provide a good man for her kids. But can she fight her cravings for hot sex with her ex?
