"Welcome to the crazy house," the boy said pleasantly. 
   "What?" she strangled out. She felt a large invisible weight on her chest.
   " House of the diseased, criminally ill, and unusually gifted." He quipped.
    She began to panic. Why was she here? Where were her parents? What happened to the men in masks. Her head began to swim. She started seeing blue. She couldn't get enough air. Then as if she were hallucinating, another boy peeled himself from the wall. Out of nowhere, like he had been invisible. He stepped forward just in time to catch her as the world folded in on itself.

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.
