A popular guy and a shy girl with a secret become unlikely accomplices in midnight pranking and are soon in over their heads - with the law and with each other - in this sparkling standalone from New York Times best-selling author Anna Banks.
It's been several years since Carly Vega's parents were deported. Carly lives with her older brother, studies hard, and works the graveyard shift at a convenience store to earn enough to bring her parents back from Mexico.
Arden Moss used to be the star quarterback at school. He used to date popular blondes and have fun pranking with his older sister, Amber. But now all that has changed, and Arden needs a new accomplice - especially one that his father, the town sheriff, will disapprove of.
All Carly wants is to stay under the radar and do what her family expects. All Arden wants is not to do what his family expects. When their paths cross, they each realize they've allowed their lives to be driven by the wishes of others. Just like real life, Carly and Arden's journey toward their true hearts - and one another - is funny, romantic, and sometimes harsh.

I really think this story is a must read right now considering our current border crisis. This might be a fictional story but it is really for millions of immigrants that are currently crossing our border in search of a better and safer life. Maybe this read will humanize these people and families and give Americans some understanding of what it is like to be in their shoes.
Just imagine going to a different country with your children. Then have to try to support your children. It must be almost impossible to get a job when you don’t even speak or understand the language. So they are forced to do menial jobs that don’t pay much just to scrape by. With the grocery and housing prices the way they are, these people have an uphill battle ahead of them. It is hard to start over. But to start over in a new country when you don’t speak English, it is almost impossible. Now they have to work and take English as a second language classes. Then go on to other classes so they can learn a trade for better pay, it is a lot!.
I went to school with hispanic kids that had to also work a job just to hand over their pay to their parents. In most cases the kids bring in more money because they are the ones who were bilingual. They also had to double as interpreters for their parents at appointments and anywhere else there was a language barrier. They did their homework for school then spent hours teaching their parents English before they could go to bed for the night for less sleep than they needed just to get up and do it all again the next day. Most of these kids were forced to quit school in the end because work and money came first. Without work there is no pay. Without pay their is no roof over their heads or food to eat. This is the reality they found after leaving everything they knew behind to cross the border thinking they were coming to the land of opportunity. The only good thing about their decision is that their families are in a safer place, if they don’t lose their children to DCFS in the end. I pray for all of those families and hope that their sacrifices are worth it.
Very enjoyable story

I enjoyed Arden. Carly irritated me A LOT. I didn't like most of what she said and how she treated people. I liked Cletus and we there had been more of him. I like the overall arc of the story.
I did not like the change in tense between Carly & Arden. I HATED that part. Made me so uncomfy. Some parts dragged sooo much. Other parts ended with barely an explanation.
Not quite satisfying, but mostly.
