Sequel to Perfect Chemistry with new characters to fall in love with but the same hot romance.

When Carlos Fuentes returns to America after living in Mexico for a year, he doesn't want any part of the life his older brother, Alex, has laid out for him at a high school in Colorado. Carlos likes living his life on the edge and wants to carve his own path - just like Alex did. Then he meets Kiara Westford. She doesn't talk much and is completely intimidated by Carlos' wild ways. As they get to know one another, Carlos assumes Kiara thinks she's too good for him, and refuses to admit that she might be getting to him. But he soon realises that being himself is exactly what Kiara needs right now.

          Comments about Rules of Attraction:

          I have to say I was a little worried that Ms Elkeles would find it hard to write a book as good as the first in this series (Perfect chemistry).
          I was not disappointed at all, this was a wonderful YA book although I'm far from being YA myself.
          I can't recommend this series more highly ,a very good read and I'm now going to be placing the third book in this series (Chain reaction) in my wish list!

              In The Press

              "Brittany's controlling parents and sister with cerebral palsy are well drawn, but it is Elkeles' rendition of Alex and his life that is particularly vivid. Sprinkling his speech with Spanish, his gruff but tender interactions with his family and friends feel completely genuine."
              —Booklist

              "Elkeles pens plenty of tasteful, hot scenes... that keep the pages turning. The author definitely knows how to write romance."
              —Kirkus Review

              "Alternately narrated by Brittany and Alex, this compelling story portrays complex teens whose manufactured personas hide personal problems."
              —VOYA

              "a solid romance"
