Jewel Campbell leads a sheltered existence on the 'safe' north side of Dallas. The only thing she knows about the hood comes from TV and movies. Her best friend, Renee, is determined to hook her up and shake her out of her comfort zone. Roman Montgomery is a street-smart homeboy from the south side, with a ghetto-fabulous clingy ex-wife and a five-year-old son. Tired of the games and the drama, Roman is looking for a classy lady with no hidden agenda. He and Jewel share an instant attraction, but can they reconcile their differences?
