When Miami gangster Dante flies out to New Jersey to tie up some “loose ends,” the job is quickly sidetracked by a stop in upstate New York—Syracuse to be precise.

Like her son, Dante’s mother is an underworld figure of her own as the leader of the ruthless Blackwell family, who are currently embroiled in a bloody war for total control of every last bit of NY & NJ drug territory. With Dante now in the fold, albeit temporarily … the Blackwells see an opportunity to crush their enemies once and for all. While in exchange, Dante requests their assistance in helping him locate and kill his original target—a gangster named “Fish Man.” A deal is consummated, and Dante and the Blackwells hit the streets with a vengeance.

Fishman and all Blackwell family enemies must be cut down ASAP, to get to the truth.
Local gangster Dante is arrested and charged with the murder of two peace officers. A turn of events which doesn't take but a minute (literally) to begin percolating through the underworld grapevine. Some are thrilled about the news. Some intrigued. Others ... flat out shocked. But one person in particular is devastated-Dante's lover and partner in crime, Alinna.
This was "her" mistake, and now Dante has taken the fall for it. But that's only half the story. Dante's "sheet" gets mysteriously padded with a few more kills, on top of the assassination of a pair of Serpicos. Dante doesn't understand it, especially considering he was nowhere in close proximity to the aforementioned non-police victims. Now, a baffled Dante plans to use his time in the slammer to get to the bottom of what could be an elaborate frame job, while his better half Alinna works on a plan to spring him.
Alinna's always been good at devising strategies. But this game plan is all about combining some of the streets' most combustible elements in an effort to free her lover. Brainstorming is one thing. Ensuring things don't fall apart and result in her untimely demise ... is another.
It's the merger of all mergers. Miami drug traffickers Dante (Jack Boy) Blackwell and his lover and partner in crime Alinna (Dope Girl) Rodriguez have come to terms on an Unholy Union of sorts. Combining their respective drug organizations into one single cartel. But just as quickly as Miami starts to face its worst nightmare, Dante and Alinna's new business venture begins to unravel. The Miami Queenpin no longer trusts Dante after learning he impregnated and cheated on her with police detective Angela Perez. Thus Alinna begins to hate herself for falling for him in the first place. To salt away these emotions she banishes Dante from the group.
Hoping him not being around will give her some much needed time to think. Meanwhile Dante pays a visit to Arizona. A trip that yields a huge offer that could elevate his status in the game to even greater heights. But also ... leaves him with a major choice to make. Stay in Arizona and become the state's most powerful drug trafficker, or return to Miami and repair his fractured relationship with Alinna. Dante's decision must come quickly. However, as old nemeses and new headaches have arisen back in Magic City, it's up to Dante to convince the love of his life that they stand their greatest chance at survival together, not apart.
"The Game ..." makes for strange bedfellows. Local gangster Dante (Jack Boy) knows more than anybody how dangerous and ruthless the streets can be. But against his better instincts, allows himself to fall for a local female gangster named Alinna, considered to be somewhat of a competitor to Dante because she leads her own all female crew. Alinna too, is very well aware of the dangers that come with letting feelings get in the way of business. But like Dante, she decides to embrace the attraction anyway. That however proves to be a mistake when she discovers Dante is two-timing her with a female gang unit officer. But unlike what she has with Dante, this relationship is more about lust and power. Or better yet the officer's lust for it. While both get pleasure from this arrangement, she also gains intel, which leads to major busts that fuel her quick ascension within the department. However her world is suddenly rocked when she discovers she's pregnant with Dante's child! Now they have something that binds them together forever ... and something that complicates not just her job but also Dante's relationship with Alina! But Alina is onto Dante's cheating ways, and the officer is willing to eliminate any and all threats to her burgeoning career. Could he end up losing everything in the end?
When young TaSean Prince is unexpectedly summoned to Miami by a cousin he hasn't seen since childhood for a basketball tournament, the lure of a sizable cash prize winds up being too lucrative an offer to pass up.
