Sequel to Wrong Ties {Book 2} Have to read part one to understand what's going on. Six years after the events that happened changed everything. Kings of Notorious and Superiors no longer were what they used to be. Newer gangs came into town and took over everything. Life has never been easy for Rylos with his brother now being a gang leader, having a dysfunctional family, and a clingy ex-boyfriend who just can't seem to let him go. Suddenly, trouble comes along the way between him and the people he is surrounded with. Everything might just get worse if it hasn't already before... Only the people around him can help, even if that means the old gang has to come back together.
