Book Description
The ache of tragedy sunk deep, like the claws of a wicked monster. To heal was to remember what my godfather told me when I was six? Pain is a part of life. If you prepare for it, it will hurt less. He would know, after all. Lazarus Weston is pain personified. The scowling man with stormy eyes and tattoos covering his excessive muscles is not only my godfather, but also my dad's business partner and best friend. A permanent fixture in our lives. Well, in Dad's, not mine. But when grief mixes with confusing new feelings, I'm forced to see Lazarus differently, in a way that severely complicates my world. Because he's too old for me. He'll never be mine. I'm not allowed to have him, but obsession burns a fine line between can't and won't. I can't want her?The curse on my heart is heavy, the tale of my malediction drenched in brutal loss. Wearing ink like scars reminds me of the tomb I left behind. I've been expecting pain all my life, yet I'm still unprepared, failing to see my downfall until she's wrapped around my soul like barbed wire. Tracien Wright. My best friend's daughter. Part of my life strictly through association. She was never meant to be more than that. But Traci is a trickster. A skilled predator in the most unexpected package, oblivious to her own power. She'll learn the hard way that not all beasts should be hunted. I'm not what she thinks I am, having rose from a pit, only to bury myself in secrets and lies.Deep down I'd love nothing more than to have her. But I don't get to keep nice things. Burn with me, Lazarus.

Nora Lopez is seventeen during the infamous New York summer of 1977, when the city is besieged by arson, a massive blackout, and a serial killer named Son of Sam who shoots young women on the streets. Nora’s family life isn’t going so well either: her bullying brother, Hector, is growing more threatening by the day, her mother is helpless and falling behind on the rent, and her father calls only on holidays. All Nora wants is to turn eighteen and be on her own. And while there is a cute new guy who started working with her at the deli, is dating even worth the risk when the killer likes picking off couples who stay out too late? Award-winning author Meg Medina transports us to a time when New York seemed balanced on a knife-edge, with tempers and temperatures running high, to share the story of a young woman who discovers that the greatest dangers are often closer than we like to admit — and the hardest to accept.
