Seventeen-year-old Matt is the son of one of the most powerful criminals in the world. But his father's world has never suited Matt. His desire for a different life grows when he meets a boy named Jason. Smart, chaotic, and as disinterested in a life of crime as Matt is, the pair quickly become friends. When Jason comes out to him, Matt thinks they have a shot at becoming more than that, revealing a part of himself he has long repressed out of fear of his father. As Matt and Jason's connection grows deeper, Matt grows suspicious of his new friend's motives. He really does seem like the perfect boy - maybe even too perfect, especially when he starts encouraging Matt to disclose details of his father's empire. Now Matt must figure out if he can trust his new friend, or his father's plans for him, and must decide if he can do the impossible and come clean about who he really is.

Part thriller, part romance, this is another twisty #ownvoices YA novel from the author of The Love Interest.
