What's the point of being one of the coldest point guards Rockman High School has ever had, if you can't control your own game? Dezmon Johnson has made a pretty decent life for himself despite the errors of his parents. A senior and a star-athlete who is dating one of the prettiest girls in the school; he feels like he cannot lose. As he sorts through scholarship offer after scholarship offer, his life seems to be near perfect. That is until the day they skip school and fate sends them down separate paths of self-discovery. Ta'niq Meacham is a brilliant beauty. A soft spoken underclassman who is cool enough to draw the attention of the best basketball player Rockman has seen in a long time. With her mom as a pillar in the community, she often walks a fine line between responsibility and whim. Knowing exactly what is expected of her, the unexpected actions of one day seem to be shaping the course of her school career for years to come. Journey through the highs and lows of a high school romance as it focuses the lens on the real life situations many teens face when dating. Add the pressures of friendship, social media strife, and parents to the dating drama and life begins to unravel right before your eyes. Leaving one to question, is it possible for a relationship to recover after violence surfaces? For the Love of My Life encourages readers to ask, when does a love cross the line?

Black Women's Bodies and the Nation develops a decolonial approach to representations of iconic Black women's bodies within popular culture in the US, UK and the Caribbean and the racialization and affective load of muscle, bone, fat and skin through the trope of the subaltern figure of the Sable-Saffron Venus as an 'alter/native- body'.
