A fun, romantic story about challenging yourself and what you always thought you wanted. Who says opposites don't attract? 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. But now all that's changed, and Arden needs a new accomplice. Especially one his father, the town sheriff, will disapprove. All Carly wants, at first, is to stay under the radar and do what her family expects. All Arden wants is to not do what his family expects. When their paths cross, they each realize they've been living according to the wishes of others. Carly and Arden's journey toward their true hearts--and one another--is funny, romantic, and sometimes harsh. Just like real life.

This book is not only a cute romance, but a hard reality. With characters from opposite worlds, and plots from the real one, Joyride is relatable, funny, cute, and heart stopping. I listened to it on audio and fell instantly in love! I would say it's appropriate for ages 14+
