(3) YA Love triumphs in this Romeo and Juliet–esque tale of Carly Vega, an impoverished Mexican American girl working night shifts to help her deported parents get back to America, and Arden Moss, the wealthy son of a racist sheriff. Carly's conflicted response to familial responsibility and the significance of her complex problems with United States immigration policy are convincingly wrought.
