When Isabella (Isa) Moreno is accepted into a highly-competitive medical program for recent high school grads, she couldn't be happier. With the change of a full scholarship at the end of the program, it's her first (and only) chance to prove to her doubtful parents that she can make it in the medical field.
However, she gets much more than she bargains for when she accidentally finds herself in the room of none other than Javier Delaurentis, an extremely dangerous, and way too sexy, Latin Kings gang member. Someone who will destroy all of her dreams if she gets too close, and someone she knows only wants to use her.
The more she tries to stay away from Javi, the more she becomes entangled in his messy, dangerous life, realizing there might be more to his illness that he's letting on.
A romance with Javi will ruin everything she's worked so hard for- and she might just let him.
