YA
After witnessing her boyfriend's murder, privileged Frankie is too traumatized to identify the killer. Frankie can't escape her past after switching from private to public school where she's introduced to illegal drag racing--and to Marco, a sexy, tattooed criminal with a heart of gold. Garcia depicts class differences and car-racing culture aptly, but Marco is a bland love interest for this intense, star-crossed romance.
