Portia is the madam of an elite prostitution ring in the hood. It might be time for this circle to meet its demise. Portia grew up in the ass-for-cash game, seeing the best and surviving the worst. At five years old, hungry and huddled near a dumpster, she watched a trick beat the life out of her mother for the twenty dollars she'd just made. Portia sat there for hours until the hunger pains forced her to move, her life forever changed. Portia has followed in the footsteps of her grandmother and mother, turning to prostitution. However, unlike her family before her, she has turned the game into a lucrative enterprise, becoming the madam of an elite prostitution ring in the hood. Honey Williams, aka Honey Dip, is a former junkie trick turned call girl who secretly yearns for a relationship with her daughter and a chance at a normal life. She is tired of the game but doesn't want to turn her back on the prostitutes that saved her life and welcomed her into their family when nobody else wanted to be bothered. Just when she thinks things couldn't be any more complicated, she falls in love with a man who is young enough to be her son and declared off-limits by Portia. Sex, drugs, lies, and betrayal... Welcome to the nightlife. You won't be disappointed.
