Alexis Young and her cousin, Rebecca, have always been best friends, regardless of the fact that they came from two completely different worlds - Alexis came from a simple family who did not really care about her while Rebecca's family was wealthy and loving. 

But all the good things come to an end someday, don't they? Rebecca's parents suddenly decided that they should get a divorce. Rebecca didn't get along with the idea at all and still doesn't, even if it happened years ago, her only escape from the cruel reality becoming alcohol, boys and wild parties. She did have her older cousin, Alexis, who always followed her and made sure she's safe, but as they got older, it became harder and harder for her to do so.

After they both graduate from college, Rebecca confesses to her cousin about her biggest dream - to have a chance to start it all over again, to move out of town and start a new life. And what better place to do that, than Miami, she thought.

 After a while, both Alexis' and Rebecca's parents agreed to this, and so, the two girls flew to Miami to 'get a fresh start'. Alexis was really happy about this, though, thinking that Rebecca really wants to change for the better, but what happens after Alexis finds out that her cousin actually joined the mafia?

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?
