Iyana-Kelli Reece-plus-size, sharp-tongued, and never the girl anyone looked at twice-is used to being overlooked. Until Jacob Reed-Santiago, walks back into her life with a mouth full of slang, gold chains, and secrets buried deep under his smirk.
He's the white boy who grew up in the hood. Raised by his dad's best friend after his drug-lord father got locked up, Jacob's got a record of fights, straight A's, and a soft spot for exactly one girl: Yana. Or as he calls her, Yali-the nickname only he's allowed to use, stitched together from the pieces of her real name and his heart.
Their friendship? Complicated. Their banter? Fire.
But the tension bubbling beneath the surface? Unbearable.
When old ghosts return-his from prison, hers from the mirror-they'll have to decide: is love enough to quiet the chaos in their blood? Or will the world around them burn what they've barely begun to build?
