On the Edge | Allison Van Diepen
4 posts | 6 read | 1 to read
From Allison van Diepen, author of Light of Day, Snitch, and Street Pharm, comes a sexy, dangerous novel—perfect for fans of Simone Elkeles and Paul Griffin—about a teen who witnesses a murder and gets caught up in the seedy world of Miami's gangs. Maddie Diaz never should have taken that shortcut through the park. If she hadn't, she wouldn't have seen two members of the Reyes gang attacking a homeless man. Now, as the only witness, she knows there's a target on her back. But 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. Lobo is mysterious and passionate, and Maddie begins to fall for him. But when they live this close to the edge, can their love survive?

Run-of the-mill YA romance featuring a smokin‘ hot bad boy and bound-for-college good girl who meet and fall madly in love faster than you can say Miami heat....I skim read it and don‘t believe I missed any nuance or character development.

This was a re-read for me, while I wait for some holds to come through.

On the Edge is a typical fantastical YA read. However, it brings forth some tough topics: sex trafficking, local gangs and the cartel. It‘s also chock full of Latino culture. Maddie and Ortiz are easy to fall in love with and everyone has a friend like Iz. All of Alison Van Diepen‘s novels are amazing.
