Publisher's summary

Tristan Lopez is loyal to his brothers. He doesn't really have a choice, born into a gang that has a choke hold on every kid who roams its streets. He gave his life to them willingly, knowing if he did, then one day, this kingdom, led by boys drunk with power and ruled by fear, would all be his.

He thought about becoming someone else. It was hard not to crave the life of a regular 17-year-old. It's the only reason he stayed in school - to pretend. But he always fell back in line.

Riley Rojas didn't belong in Tristan's real world. She should have only been part of the fantasy, one of the many faces he got to pretend with amid rows of metal chairs and desks and whiteboards with assignments. But there she was, moving boxes from the back of an old pickup into a house Tristan had shot up on a dare with his friends only a few months before.

Riley took up space on his streets, her loud mouth fearless in the face of the gang leaders who terrified everyone else. She pushed Tristan around on the hard court, and she balled better than his friends - better than him sometimes. She challenged him. She needed him. He liked it. And when her pale blue eyes stared into his, he quit wanting to pretend.

Contains mature themes.

great story

I love it. ❤️ the story was different than the same old boy meets girl. Male narrator talked a little slow but it may have been part of the character. Overall...Liked it

Really good, especially if you like The Hard Count

This is a richly satisfying and inspiring story, the qualities that bring me back to Ginger Scott's work again and again. I would also say that it is the most suspenseful of any her books that I've read or listened to so far.
I am giving four stars to both story and narration as there were moments where I didn't understand a transition or plot point or where I found the performances uneven. Even so, the emotional content of the narration was all the way there, so to speak, and I'm giving five stars overall since the sum is greater still than the parts.
For evaluatory context for my fellow G. Scott fans, my top faves are The Hard Count and the Falling Series, including the fourth of The Falling series which doesn't have an audio version yet.
Thanks for another important story, Ms. Scott! Time with your words is always meaningful time spent.

IT LOST ME

I made it half way through the story and just completely lost intrest. I tried... the narration was ok... if you like children's books.. this is for you. a bit to immature for me. I just couldn't complete it.
