They called her a damsel in distress. But she had her own rules and falling in love wasn't one of them.
Denzel Ramos doesn't do love stories. Not when her dad's in a coma, the bills are piling up, and every boy she's ever met ends up proving her right. She's built her life around rules, ones that keep her sharp, guarded, and one sarcastic remark away from a breakdown.
Then two boys crash into her world.
Luke Rodriguez: the golden boy with a dancer's grin and a dangerous amount of charm.
Basti Garcia: the quiet MVP who watches more than he speaks and sees more than he should.
Both pull at the walls Denzel swore she'd never let down. But when secrets unravel and betrayal cuts deep, Denzel is forced to decide: Is love worth breaking her own rules for?
This isn't a rescue story.
This is a girl who saves herself first and then chooses who's worth the fall.
A slow-burn, emotionally rich YA romance about found family, broken rules, and the kind of love that doesn't fix you... but makes you brave enough to try.
