"Out of breath yet, handsome?" Geo asks, breathing hard against the cool night air. "I'm used to it, I live with you," I respond, slowing to a stop as we near the inner city.

Still running, Geo raises her eyebrows, "Oh and what's that supposed to mean?" She asks. I smirk in response, just as we hit inner city limits. I grab her arm and pull her to a small hidden alley between a few buildings that we have to climb over garbage to get into. 

"It means," I say placing my hands on her hips and pushing her up against the side of a building, "That you keep me busy." 

She knows exactly what I mean when I kiss her as hard as I can. I get my hands tangled in her hair, and my heartbeat speeds up. I don't know if it's from her, or the possibility we could be seen.

A ragtag gang of teens teams up with a neighboring girl gang when a major cartel moves into town, threatening their families, their turf, and the community they've worked so hard to protect. ***** Cash West formed the Seven 20s - a gang of six overzealous teens with guns - to keep his tiny, crime-infested town in nowhere California safe. His methods are unorthodox and frankly illegal, but the town loves his Robin Hood heroics. However, the gang gets more than they bargained for when the Mendoza cartel rolls into town, determined to knock them off the map. As the threat hits closer to home, Cash has no choice but to team up with his ex-girlfriend Tiana's neighboring girl gang, the Hearts of Spades. Soon allies become enemies, families get trapped in the crossfire, and romance brews as Cash fights to unravel a massive conspiracy that puts everyone that matters to him at risk. When the stakes are life and death, will the gangs be able to overcome an enemy more powerful than any of them could have predicted? Book One of The Seven Twenties Series Content and Trigger Warning: contains violence, drug use, mentions of domestic abuse, and mature themes.
