In the heart of a divided world, two worlds collide-one of privilege and wealth, the other of struggle and survival. Elena Rodriguez is a bright, beautiful girl who has everything she could ever want. As a member of the powerful Rodriguez family, she lives in a lavish mansion in New York, a part of town where money flows freely. But behind her polished exterior, 17-year-old, Elena feels trapped in a world of expectations. Where appearances matter more than anything, and real connection seems out of reach. Henry Burton, on the other hand, lives in London-a forgotten part of town where survival is a daily battle. The streets are filled with thief's, criminal, gangsters, kids who scrape by any way they can. Henry, a determined and resourceful 18-year-old, spends his days working odd jobs and stealing just to make ends meet. His life is a constant struggle for dignity and basic needs. Their worlds couldn't be more different, until one fateful encounter shatters the walls that divide them. When Elena accidentally crosses paths with Henry, she finds herself caught in a situation that exposes her to a harsh reality she's never known. Where, the streets that she thought were filled with life and beauty, is exposed with danger and uncertainty, and people are defined not by their names or wealth, but by their ability to survive. Elena meets Henry, a boy whose resilience and intelligence spark something within her-something she's been longing for: authenticity. Their connection is instant, intense-and forbidden. But as their relationship grows, so does the pressure from society. The division between the two becomes impossible to ignore, and their relationship is put to the ultimate test. Can two people from such different worlds ever truly understand each other? And, if they do, is their connection strong enough to survive the harsh realities of a world that thrives on division?

"What are we doing Alex?" He breathes against my lips. That's too sensible of a question, so I ignore it. My brain has yet to return to my body, and right now that is the last thing I'm worried about. "Stay." I whisper against his mouth, my words flowing without any thought. "Stay?" He sits up fully, which results in me straddling him. His expression is full of curiosity and mild shock. "Like stay stay?" I don't respond with words. I'm afraid if I open my mouth, I'll start to overthink and I can't afford that. Instead, I pull my shirt over my head. I do it confidently, in spite of my boldness starting to dissipate as the seconds pass. Ryan swallows. His eyes trail down to my breasts, before he looks at me again with a look I can't name. "Are you sure?" He stares into me. "Promise me you're sure." "I'm sure." I tell him softly. "I promise." ******* ALEXANDRA MONET is a twenty two year old girl, freshly out of college. After landing her dream job working for top fashion designer Adrienne Walker, she moves from a small town in Florida, to the boisterous city of New York. Since before she moved, Alex mapped out a clear plan for the direction of her life. None of which could prepare her for RYAN RUSSO...the snarky, sarcastic boy who she'll soon find herself thinking about constantly. As much as the two think they can't stand each other, there's an underlying attraction that eventually grows too strong for either them to bare. So they make an agreement... An agreement that is supposed to be void of any and all feelings, but over time it becomes a lot harder than expected. It's supposed to mean nothing. Less than nothing, but unfortunately some things just don't go as planned. Warning: Mature scenes and language.
