When shy bookworm Mia Chen collides with mysterious bad boy Dante Romano in the hallway of Riverside High, she never expects it to change her entire world.
Mia has always lived by a simple rule: keep your head down, get good grades, and stay invisible. It's worked perfectly until the day she literally crashes into the one person everyone whispers about-Dante Romano, whose family name carries weight in their small New Jersey town, and not the good kind.
But beneath the leather jacket and dangerous reputation, Mia discovers something unexpected: a boy who reads Jane Austen because his grandmother asked him to, who protects the vulnerable, and who dreams of building something better than the legacy he's inherited.
As their unlikely friendship deepens into something more, Mia realizes that Dante isn't just running from his family's dark past-he's fighting for a future worth having. Together, they'll learn that love isn't just about finding someone who accepts you as you are, but someone who inspires you to become who you're meant to be.
But when two worlds collide, some people get caught in the crossfire. Can their love survive family expectations, dangerous enemies, and the weight of a name that comes with strings attached? Or will Mia discover that some fairy tales are too dangerous to come true?
A story about courage, choice, and the transformative power of love that dares to bridge any divide.
