Reasons we break / Jesmeen Kaur Deo.

Deo, Jesmeen Kaur, (author.).

Summary:

"As long as Simran has known Rajan, her immigrant community has warned her away. She knows what they call him, especially since he got out of juvie: an addict. A gangster. A killer. But Simran can't believe Rajan is beyond hope. She's seen his thoughtfulness firsthand: He's the only one who's noticed the pressure she's under to be perfect--and how close she is to breaking. So when Rajan's old gang tries to force him back in, Simran makes a desperate bargain: She'll become their bookkeeper to clear his debts and keep him out of prison. But Rajan won't leave her side while she works, and their forbidden attraction is becoming harder to ignore. Worse, there's a gang war brewing--and neither of them is likely to get through it unscathed . . . if they get through it at all." -- Provided by publisher.
