內容簡介

Some stories don't just entertain - they remind you who you were.

Two facts about Lake Los Angeles: one, there's no lake, and, two, it's nowhere near Los Angeles.

That's where Kiara ends up after her parents' divorce-in the middle of nowhere-a land of Joshua trees, dust devils, and tumbleweeds. Kiara's mom calls it affordable housing; Kiara calls it hell.

Growing up in the 1980s and 90s, Kiara drifts through life trying to please everyone-her mother who can't show affection, her brother who barely hides his contempt, and friends who aren't what they seem.

When she meets green-eyed Cole, she discovers the spark to seek out more from life.

Escaping the town that's suffocating her is Kiara's only option. But leaving means trusting herself and letting go of the things she's terrified of losing.

There is a life beyond the desert. Can she dare to dream a way out?

The first book in the Desert of Dreams Series - standalone stories connected by friendship, place, and the courage to overcome.

Perfect for readers who love:

  • Tender, character-driven coming-of-age stories
  • Nostalgic 1980s-1990s settings and small-town life
  • Journeys of self-discovery and courage that linger after the last page
