Bronx Meets Bronze

Tiana Marie is a master of the art of disappearing. In the Bronx, survival isn't a choice; it's a reflex. Between the bruises left by her parents and the weight of a future that feels like a dead end, she's learned that the only way to stay safe is to never be noticed.Nathan Montgomery is the boy who has everything-and feels absolutely nothing. To the world, he's the golden heir with the 4.0 GPA and the pristine reputation. But behind the designer suits lies a fractured mind. Nathan lives with a volatile dissociative rage; a darkness that sits just beneath his skin, waiting for a reason to draw blood. He doesn't sell drugs for the money-he does it for the friction, the danger, and the chance to punish the people who think they're untouchable.He's a good man with a monster on a very thin leash.When Tiana catches the golden boy in a back alley transaction, she doesn't see a criminal. She sees a mirror. But Nathan's "hobby" has attracted the wrong kind of attention. Someone is pulling the strings, pushing Nathan toward a breaking point that will leave the neighborhood in ashes.One is fighting to survive. The other is fighting to stay human.In a city built on lies, the truth won't just set them free-it might burn them alive.
