He starts working with Tank, the king of the streets in Houston, Texas and his come up is fast. So fast that he starts to elicit jealousy in not only the hearts of his enemies, but also in the hearts of the very same person that he thought was his friend. Blow. Ignoring Tank's warning, that jealousy becomes his downfall, and Gideon will learn that there is no love lost when it comes to the money.

The only problem Tank has, is that he doesn't have anyone to hand his reigns off too. He refuses to let his younger sister Tai get into the same kind of life, and when he meets Gideon, he knows he has a contender. Tank starts to mold Gideon into the young thug that he needs to be in order to handle the streets, but mistakes are made and those mistakes become deadly. This Love is Trill is gritty, urban, and full of broken hearted people all searching for love in the worst place ever; the streets.
