From what I alredy knew about this book I was excpecting it to be super cheesy. But it escaped, uncheesed. Alex Fuentes is the average gang guy from all the movies. He is in an unfortunate situation, is smart, good looking and looks out for his family blah blah blah. And Brittany is the cheerleading blonde. She has the perfect life on the outside but on the inside she is a meltdown waiting to happen (Hmm...where have I seen that before?) but her parents' rocky relationship isn't the only missplaced hair on her perfect coiffure. She also has a mentally disabled sister, Shelly. So at least you know there is some character depth. And a bonus, every chapter has a different point of view, it goes back and forth from Brittany to Alex.Once these two cross pathes their lives change forever. Alex gets Brittany to stand up to her parents and Britany, gets Alex to reevaluate his situation in the gang. Alex is a smart guy who could really do a lot with his life but he is tied down to where he is by his gang. But everything in the book changes once they fall in love. Their love is actually kind of sincere, they have...passion! And you can't help but love Alex. Anyways, this book isn't too bad. I liked it. It was a cute romance with a little twist at the end and a lot of comedic relief. The second book comes out next year if I am not mistaken. Although the plot was cliche, the writing was not. Go on and read the book, it has a moody seal of approovement!
*Sigh, although the book was not cheesy, the trailer is! Behold! (by the way the book is not that...cheesy/cliche. Trust me)
