Friendship begins with trust. Where does it end?
Wynter is a child of the Light, raised in an isolated cult in Arizona, abandoned by her mother, and left in the care of abusive women and a fragile older sister. When two spirited Australian boys arrive offering rock music on a secret radio and tales of the world outside, Wynter can't resist their friendship. A disused shed becomes their sanctuary, and for the first time she begins to wonder what it would be like to leave.
Dragged away from his perfect life of Aussie beaches, surfing and shoplifting, Xay loathes the desert where he's expected to farm all day and attend prayer meetings all night. One strange and magical girl makes it all bearable. As his buddy Roman's mental health deteriorates and Wynter refuses to explain her bruises, who can he turn to for help?
This is a prequel to the Wynter Wild series, which starts with book 1: Little Sister Song (Kindle Unlimited). (Sample chapters on Wattpad.)

TAINTED (book II)
Five siblings, catapulted into chaos. Striving hard to create a grounded foundation amidst a cruel world, hoping that building walls will protect them against the hungry hands trying to tear them into pieces. They only ever wanted to love and be loved but life carved its marks into their hearts. Poisoned people and a series of misfortunes left their souls tainted. 🌼 🌼 🌼 ❗❗❗ This book is a PREQUEL which means that the story takes place several years before the first book, 'FADED'. This work is a part of a backstory that focuses on the events that occurred before the original narrative. It is not necessarily required that you read FADED to understand this one, but I do strongly recommend it to get a better understanding of the characters and setting. 🌼 🌼 🌼 ⚠️ Trigger Warning! ⚠️ This is not some fairytale about falling in love and living happily ever after. This story is a reflection of reality, it's about real characters facing real hardships and struggles in life. RATED M (Please read the tags for more info about the story.

What happens when your dreams crash and the only person who can save you is the one who broke your heart? Seventeen-year-old Maya Chen hasn't sung a note since the humiliation that destroyed her confidence but when her estranged brother Josh returns with a beat-up RV and one last desperate shot at Nashville's biggest teen music competition, she faces an impossible choice: trust the brother who abandoned their family, or watch everything they love disappear forever. This isn't just any young adult road trip. As Maya and Josh race across America with only days before their family restaurant gets foreclosed, they rescue fellow dreamers running from their own broken lives: Sage, a classical piano prodigy fleeing controlling parents; Jamie and Jordan, twin musicians escaping their toxic stage mother; and Phoenix, a street performer hiding his painful foster care past behind beatboxing brilliance. Five strangers. One RV. A singing competition that could change everything. What starts as a desperate family mission becomes an emotional journey of found family, first love, and the courage to chase impossible dreams. But as the miles countdown to Nashville, Maya must confront her deepest fear: performing her truth in front of thousands, knowing that failure means losing everything her voice, her family, and the magical harmony she's discovered with four people who've become her chosen family. Perfect for fans of Rainbow Rowell's Eleanor & Park and Becky Albertalli's Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda-a heartwarming, tearjerker young adult contemporary romance about music, family bonds, and finding your voice when the stakes have never been higher. Sometimes the most beautiful harmony comes from the most broken places.
