She especially can't stand the judgmental and arrogant Darius. When the wealthy Darcy family moves in across the street, Zuri wants nothing to do with their two teenage sons, even as her older sister, Janae, starts to fall for the charming Ainsley. But pride might not be enough to save her rapidly gentrifying neighborhood from becoming unrecognizable.


Brooklyn pride, family pride, and pride in her Afro-Latino roots.
