The third book in this New York Times bestselling series--an urban
twist on a star-crossed love story
Luis Fuentes has always been sheltered from the gang violence that
nearly destroyed his brothers' lives. But that didn't stop him from
taking risks--whether he's scaling a mountain in the Rockies or dreaming
of a future as an astronaut, Luis can't stop looking for the next
thrill.
Nikki Cruz lives her life by three rules--boys lie to get their way,
don't trust a boy who says "I love you," and never date a boy from the
south side of Fairfield. Her parents may be from Mexico, but as a
doctor's daughter, she has more in common with her north-side neighbors
than the Latino Blood at her school. Then she meets Luis at Alex's
wedding, and suddenly, she's tempted to break all her rules.
Getting Nikki to take a chance on a south sider is Luis's biggest
challenge, until he finds himself targeted by Chuy Soto, the new head of
the Latino Blood. When Chuy reveals a disturbing secret about Luis's
family, the youngest Fuentes finds himself questioning everything he's
ever believed to be true. Will his feelings for Nikki be enough to stop
Luis from entering a dark and violent world and permanently living on
the edge?
