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.)All Rights Reserved

Her dream was shattered the first time her husband laid a hand on her, showing her that the life she'd married into was going to be anything but perfect. Now a twenty-five-year-old pastry chef, Angeline reaches a breaking point with Nathan's abuse when he does the unthinkable: he threatens her life. Angeline knows that this path only leads one of two ways: either she lives with Nathan and his abuse, or she allows him to take her life from her. Instead, Angeline chooses a third option. She risks everything-and runs. Escaping to a small, rural Texas community, Angeline changes her name to Aaliyah and hopes to start a new life. Traumatized by her past, she never expects to find comfort in another man again-until Jason Moore, a twenty-nine-year-old, winemaker and part-time sales associate sweeps her off her feet with more kindness and compassion than she's ever experienced. Angeline knows that Nathan would search the ends of the earth to find her and make her pay for leaving him.
