“Where there are wolves, there’s war.”
Letting a smirk crest the corner of my lips I gazed towards the one person who had slowly captured my heart, “that may be so… but it’s going to happen on my terms.”
The year is 1952 and eighteen-year-old Ashford Wells only has one more tortuous year at Sacred Heart High left. Just one more year until he can leave the city of Lonton, and his father’s impossible legacy of being a pack Alpha. Trying to play it cool as well as keeping his head down, Ash also has to try and ignore the taunts from jocks like David Hunt about being a Casteless freak.
The only problem with Ash’s ideas of leaving Lonton is that boogeyman and all-around rebel, Kenny O’Rourke’s has a different idea of what Ash’s future will look like. One that’s going to rock the very foundations of Dustland free.

The Wolves of Dustland

The weekend passes by without so much as a hitch, the Fairgrounds eager to promote Valentine’s Day and recoup any losses from those of us who didn’t go to the Fairgrounds for New Year’s. Billie and I had a blast, reaping the benefits of being a “couple” and getting deals on assorted candies, discount movie prices, and dinner.


There was a moment when I thought to brave the local charity Kissing Booth. Suzy Sykes herself was only blocked by a five-cent paywall Billie had donated enough to break. The nickel burned in my pocket, daring me to be different, but I’d backed off. Prom would have to be the first time.


It didn’t stop me, however, from tracing my lips with my tongue and recalling an altogether different kiss, one that was accompanied by stormy blue-gray eyes.
