Zoe is a teenage girl convicted of a murder she didn't commit, but that doesn't matter in the Arena of Justice. You either win your fights, or you die.
 
                                                                      ***** 
 
Seventeen-year-old Zoe never expected to find herself on the wrong side of the law, but when she's convicted of a murder she didn't commit, she's sentenced to the Arena of Justice - the home of gladiator matches where murderers fight murderers, and every fight ends with a death. Zoe's plan for surviving is simple: ignore the other inmates and fly under the radar until it's time to fight, but that's easier said than done. As hard as she tries to hate those she must kill, Zoe soon befriends the other inmates and falls in love - a deadly proposition when a moment's hesitation can prove fatal. It's up to Zoe to save her life, no matter how hard the system is trying to kill her.

68 parts Complete Mature
If you're looking for an adventure in the morally grey, and a crash course of the human condition, this is the story for you! What is good and evil? Where is that line drawn, and who decides that? Packed with humor, danger, feels, and awkward relationships, Last Chance Penitentiary leaves its impression on everyone. *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** When Nathan pushes back at a bully in his high school, and the boy takes a tumble down the stairs, he finds himself on the wrong side of the law, and he must choose between prison or the experimental LCP facility. It reads like a dream, allowing him to leave and live life beyond its walls as long as he returns for curfew and adheres to their rules, but anything too good to be true, is. Nothing is what it seems behind the walls of LC Penitentiary, and there, he struggles to live among five convicted felons. Somethings are terrifying, as he expected they would be, but others light and gentle, hidden beneath the faces of monsters that could resurface at any moment. Everyone in LC penitentiary is a dance of faces, of masks one wears to blend in with prey. Which faces are real, which the lures? And will Nathan one day don a mask of his own, to bury the gentleness in his heart behind the violence and hatred that ended him up there in the first place? ----- Rachel is the daughter of the Mayor by day and one of the hood kids at night. Nothing was dangerous to her until she stumbled upon the inmates of LC Penitentiary. Intending only to take a step onto the edges of LC Penitentiary, it drags her under into a world of violence, pain, and unfathomable sadness. The city controlled by a ruthless Italian crime boss starts to crumble on top of her as she struggles to make a place for herself. Lost in their world, she finds an unlikely friend in one of the inmates at LC Penitentiary that changes her life forever.

"Things that are special, though temporary, tend to last longer in our memories," Kaito says. Zoe recalls the Hanami party that they had and everything that has happened since she arrived. She remembers every detail perfectly. She nods slowly. "You're right. Perhaps because we know that it may not happen again, so we treasure it," Zoe pauses, and with a sad smile, she adds, "Like this exchange program." "Like this moment." ****** Life has been easy for Zoe. She names it, she gets it. Clothes? Done. Shoes? Done. But things that matter like freedom? Nah-uh. So when she sees an opportunity to leave the country and fly to Japan as an exchange student, she instantly grabs it, leaving her best friend and maybe-boyfriend behind. And then on her first day, Kaito, a Filipino-Japanese student, comes into Zoe's life and offers his friendship. He lives in the building next to hers, and despite having opposite personalities, they just click. Small talks turn into deeper conversations, and beneath the enchanting cherry blossom trees lining the streets of Mitaka, Kaito and Zoe discover a bond that transcends any they've experienced before.
