Oh, and add in the super hot “bad boy” who is actually not really all that bad. In short, it is a book about a girl who lives in a shitty area with her mom, hasn’t had the best life, and wants something more. I suppose when you just barely skim the synopsis that’s bound to happen. This book was a bit different than I expected, but not in a bad way. The novel showcases a gritty, realistic voice and earth–shattering romance that will intrigue readers of Simone Elkeles and Paul Griffin and captivate fans of Allison van Diepen's other novels. On the Edge is a compelling story about fighting for what’s right and figuring out where you belong. But when they live this close to the edge, can their love survive? Lobo is mysterious and passionate, and Maddie begins to fall for him. Now, as the only witness, she knows there’s a target on her back.īut when the Reyes jump her on the street, Maddie is protected by a second gang and their secretive leader, Lobo, who is determined to take down the Reyes himself.

If she hadn't, she wouldn't have seen two members of the Reyes gang attacking a homeless man. Maddie Diaz never should have taken that shortcut through the park. Published by HarperCollins on November 25th 4014įrom Allison van Diepen, author of Snitch and Street Pharm, comes a sexy, dangerous novel about a teen who witnesses a murder and gets caught up in the seedy world of Miami’s gangs. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from HarperCollins in exchange for an honest review.
