Prefect Brittany Ellis never expected to be partnered with gang member and all around bad ass Alex Fuentes in Chemistry. She was suppose to coast through school this year. It is, after all, her senior year. But, between Alex's snide comments and her boyfriend pushing her to do something she's not sure she's ready for, perfect Brittany is perfectly stressed. Not to mention her home life isn't that great. To make up for her older sister, Brittany is forced to be the best at everything and if she's not, she has hell to pay from her mom. But, it has to get better, right?
Alex Fuentes hates people like Brittany and her crowd. They live privileged, where he has to work to help keep food on his family's table. Plus, it's not like he wanted to be in a gang. But, after what happened to his father, he has to get revenge. So when Alex gets partnered with Brittany in Chemistry class, he enjoys making her squirm. Alex thinks he knows everything there is to know about the goddess herself, but he's soon to learn that he's not as smart as he thinks.
I'm sure you've heard this age old story of the perfect girl and the bad boy. This story is that type, but it digs deeper. At first, I thought I wouldn't like Brittany. She's the type of person who would get on my nerves with the poor little rich girl act and so on. And, Alex? Don't get me started on him. He's your stereotypical bad boy in a gang. But, you find out that there's more to both of them than it seems. As stereotypical as it seems, Simone Elkeles adds more to this story and creates a monster. Once I started reading, I couldn't stop. Even though I probably could have guessed the ending, I wanted to keep reading, just to make sure that I was right. The chapters rotate in Alex's and Brittany's point of view, so you can get to know them better and it adds to the story. This is an excellent read, that comes recommended by me!
