Blake University Hbcu Chronicles: Talon & Teniece

Teniece Wiley didn't come to Blake University to fall in love, she came to create a better future. Between juggling a full course load, working for scraps at Zavion's Deli, and the weight of raising her little brother while their mother slips deeper into addiction, Teniece is focused on academic excellence; but love is one subject she's never dared to study. When she agrees to star in For the Love of Learning, a reality show about love on a HBCU campus, she finds herself entangled with a lesson she never studied for, Talon Coltrane.

Born into Coltrane Media Group and groomed for power, Talon's life has been on display since he could form sentences. Beneath the designer clothes and charm, is a young man suffocating under his mother's control; and a legacy he never asked to inherit. When he's casted in For the Love of Learning to "fix his public image" he plans to suffer through it. What he doesn't plan, is to fall for Teniece - a girl who could care less about the cameras, the fame, or his last name.

What starts as scripted chemistry becomes dangerously real, and Teniece and Talon's made-for-TV romance becomes something more; until a humiliating exchange leaves Teneice shattered. Now, with the world watching, she's forced to choose between vanishing from the spotlight or rewriting the narrative on her own terms.

Two students from different worlds, Teniece and Talon must decide if they will let their pasts define them or tear up the script and write a new ending.
