There’s only one bright light in my world, and it’s Olivia Carson. When she goes against her father’s wishes and comes skipping up to the fence to talk to me—a felon who’s not good enough to shine her shoes—every chance she gets, she makes me believe there just might be a little bit of goodness left in this world.

I’m a nobody, the lowest of the low, and she’s all sugar and spice and everything nice with her honey-colored hair and big blue eyes.

I know she feels the connection that pulls us together like two polar ends of a magnet, but she’s too afraid of disobeying her strict schoolteacher parents to step over the line.

That’s why I’m going to make it easy for her. I’m going to make the decision she’s too scared to make on her own.

I’m going to take her.
