I looked in the mirror at a girl who desired a life of luxury, even with a vanity fill of makeup and heels, the smell of liquor vaporing the room and cigars burning my nostrils. None of that was enough through the bliss of cash or credit stinging my ears asked by bartenders from my mother's wallet. None of that came close to the life I wanted even if I loved it, it was still never enough to satisfy me, or set me off to memories long hold from a southern girl yearning for the freshly baked dough of her grandmother's cookies. That all lasted until I turned 19, the love I found both the thrill of toxicity and passion pounded my soul into taking other people's happiness and making it my own. Our own.

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.
