Ringer has spent his entire life fighting to stay afloat in a world created to work against him. Poverty, violence, and the unspoken rules of the streets close in on him from all sides. The only thing keeping him grounded is his tight-knit group of friends. Then Adeline crashes into their lives. She's from the other side of town, refusing to stay inside the neat little box society has built for her. With her upbeat attitude and infectious smile, she forces her way into their circle - and into Ringer's life - whether he likes it or not. Too bad the streets don't forgive as easily as she does. When someone they love is ripped away, revenge becomes the goal. And Adeline finds herself right in the middle. When you don't know who to trust and danger waits for you around every corner... how do you stay alive? Only three things matter now: revenge, love, and survival. When everything burns, which one will survive the ashes? (18+ violence, explicit language, explicit sexual content, racial themes, violence, references to self-harm)Complete
