Besties to lovers "I know it's scary but let's figure this out.. for us"

"you're crazy, you know that?" "For you... Yeah I am."

Masai and Koda were supposed to kill each other. Leaders of rival gangs, raised by the streets, built on hate and loyalty. But when a setup turns into something deeper, they find themselves caught in a slow-burning connection that neither of them can explain. They're both dominant. Both dangerous. Both confused as hell. But the more time they spend together, the harder it gets to act like this ain't something. This ain't a love story. It's something... Crazy. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ "Then surprisingly, I wouldn't be upset." His voice lowered a notch. "But maybe I'm just crazy... right along wit you."

Azir is in the hospital after getting shot, and Bry is dealing with the loss of his grandmother. Nothing feels right-Bry's not in school, Azir's not waking up, and the people around them are getting more dangerous. You need to read Book 1 first to understand what's going on in this story. This book dives deeper into who Azir and Bry really are-and what they're willing to do for each other.

Book 1 In Miami's heat, where bodies drop and secrets burn, Brycier finds himself tangled in the arms of the city's most dangerous man-the one who was never supposed to care. A slow-burn hood romance soaked in blood, fear, and first love.

Love me until I love myself -Lana del rey

Philophobia fear of emotional attachment; fear of being in, or falling in love. This is lowkey a toxic book😫.
