Collision (Portland Street Kings Book 1) by Evie Harper

4 stars

Synopsis

When I was fourteen years old, I killed for the first time. That day I learned cruelty wasn’t only within the walls we had just escaped. 

It hasn’t been easy growing up in the middle of a war. A struggle to find shelter. Fighting to protect our bodies against the corruption of the streets. Nobody cared about the street kids who had to beg and steal to eat. 

We are the Portland Street Kings – A family forged through loyalty not blood. To get through this life of broken dreams alive, we’ve become hard, uncaring and merciless. We do what must be done to keep our family safe, we will harm those who stand against us. 

We have it all, feared and respected by those on the streets. Then she collided into my world, and with her came demons from my past, back to haunt us all.

My Review
I enjoyed this book.  I went into it not really knowing what it was about.  We follow the lives of siblings (not blood related) who were in foster care and after a life changing event.... flee!   The will build a better life for themselves and harbor many secrets.  It was unique.  Had some twists that I didn't see coming.  Which makes for and great story.  

Slater - is the oldest of the siblings and the "King" of the Portland Street Kings - street gang.   Street cars and  many other illegal activities they are a part of have made them enought money to have a much better life.  But - They have a legitimate business that does well too.  The rival street gang Parkland Poison Boys will cause an uproar and  Slater will do everything he can to protect his family.  Slater is a  player of women.   But what happens when  one night stand turns into another night and another night.......

Piper -   a strong, independant woman.  Looking for a little fun.  Hooking up with Slater could have been more than she bargained for.    

I did not expect any of the plot twists she throws in there.   

You are going to be taken on a ride that is full of suspense.... hot sex and secrets.   What happens when you feel the "Full impact of Collision"............  
I look forward to the next in the series.
