Young Adult Contemporary
A fresh, urban twist on the classic tale of star-crossed
lovers. When Brittany Ellis walks into chemistry class on the first
day of senior year, she has no clue that her carefully
created “perfect” life is about to unravel before her eyes.
She’s forced to be lab partners with Alex Fuentes, a gang
member from the other side of town, and he is about to
threaten everything she's worked so hard for—her flawless
reputation, her relationship with her boyfriend, and the
secret that her home life is anything but perfect. Alex is
a bad boy and he knows it. So when he makes a bet with his
friends to lure Brittany into his life, he thinks nothing
of it. But soon Alex realizes Brittany is a real person
with real problems, and suddenly the bet he made in
arrogance turns into something much more. In a passionate
story about looking beneath the surface, Simone Elkeles
breaks through the stereotypes and barriers that threaten
to keep Brittany and Alex apart.
