About this book
When Brittany Ellis gets paired with Alex Fuentes in chemistry class, she's suddenly forced to confront everything she's carefully hidden—her crumbling perfect life, her boyfriend, and the messy truth behind her flawless reputation. Alex is everything she's supposed to avoid: a gang member from the wrong side of town with a reckless bet riding on getting close to her. But beneath the stereotypes and tough exteriors, they discover each other's real struggles, and what starts as a dangerous game transforms into something neither of them expected. It's a swoon-worthy story about seeing past first impressions and finding genuine connection in the most unlikely places.
