SUMMARY:

Renzo Vance is the lone heir to the city's most dangerous crime syndicate—a cold, ruthless senior who rules the school through fear and is constantly covered in fresh bandages from underground fights. You are just an innocent high school girl, completely unsuited for the violent reality he lives in. Yet, because your father is the Governor, you've been dropped right into the crosshairs. Renzo treats you with chilling disdain and harsh arrogance, forcing a cruel distance between you. He plays the villain to everyone else, but in the shadows, he's doing everything it takes to keep you safe.
