Synopsis :

From Allison van Diepen, author of Light of Day, Snitch, and Street Pharm, comes a sexy, dangerous novel―perfect for fans of Simone Elkeles and Paul Griffin―about a teen who witnesses a murder and gets caught up in the seedy world of Miami's gangs.

Maddie Diaz never should have taken that shortcut through the park. If she hadn't, she wouldn't have seen two members of the Reyes gang attacking a homeless man. Now, as the only witness, she knows there's a target on her back.

But when the Reyes jump her on the street, Maddie is protected by a second gang and their secretive leader, Lobo, who is determined to take down the Reyes himself. Lobo is mysterious and passionate, and Maddie begins to fall for him. But when they live this close to the edge, can their love survive?

• Forbidden Love: Maddie’s a good girl with a college scholarship. Lobo is the dangerous leader of a rival gang. Falling for the one person who can protect her might be the last mistake she ever makes.
• Good Girl Bad Boy Romance: He’s the mysterious, tattooed protector from the wrong side of the tracks, and she’s the only witness who can bring down his enemies. But his protection comes with a price.
• Witness Protection Thriller: With a target on her back from the powerful Reyes gang, Maddie is plunged into a world of secrets, lies, and street warfare where trusting the wrong person is a death sentence.
• Rival Gangs: Caught between the brutal Reyes and Lobo’s secretive Destinos gang, Maddie becomes a pawn in a dangerous game for control of Miami’s streets.
