My Fault (Culpable Book 1)

My Fault is the first book in Mercedes Ron's Culpable trilogy, a YA romance series that combines forbidden attraction with suspense, trauma, and secrets. Seventeen-year-old Noah Morgan lives a quiet life in Toronto until her mother returns from a cruise married to a billionaire and announces the family is moving to Los Angeles. Noah finds herself in an unfamiliar world of illegal street races, lavish parties, and wealthy teenagers. Her new stepbrother Nicholas is arrogant, aloof, and attractive—everything Noah dislikes, especially when she discovers his bad boy reputation is genuine. Noah has spent her life avoiding danger, but Nick embodies it. Despite their antagonism, a powerful attraction develops between them that neither can resist, threatening to upend both their lives. Noah's past, however, may pose an even greater threat than their forbidden romance. Nick must decide whether he is willing to risk everything for her. The novel features dual perspectives and an enemies-to-lovers dynamic, exploring themes of angst, danger, and electric attraction.
