Tossed around Foster homes, Anita went from one hell to another. When she turns sixteen she runs away from her temporary home and learns that the only person she can rely on is herself. For a year she finds shelter with an odd friend and S.W.A.T officer who’s been searching for her. He needs her help. Together, they prepare for the road ahead.
At eighteen she returns to the small town of Everest, set on revealing it’s terrible secret. The town is doomed, and it’s inhabitants are afraid of what is to come.
Michael Dawson’s life changed the day he saved Anita as well. When she left, he was affected more than he expected. The town loner, as they call him, has a dark past too. The ruthless gang that inhabits their town is seeking him out for his special abilities. Abilities that landed him in jail a few times. But it’s the small town of Everest, and laws are a thing of the past. Trying to rebuild his life, he keeps his head down and does his best to avoid them. But in a town without law and order, trouble holds a permanent residence.
The gang looking to recruit him might not be all what they seem...
Together, Anita and Michael face danger, love, and a chance to fill in the graves they’ve dug for themselves.
Will they ever find peace in the town of Everest?

Everest, untitled.
Smile. Pretend to belong. And never, EVER raise suspicion. Your family depends on it. Everest Nathan "Nate" Decker is barely hanging on, desperate to hold on to the few fires in his life he can control. Being the teacher's pet, designated driver for secret therapy appointments for his non-binary sibling, and cooking dinner? Not a problem. What is a problem though, is the inexplicable disappearance of his best friend Javi from his life. Javi has been the sole anchor in Nate's overwhelming blur of responsibility, social charades, and drinking his nightmares away and keep convincing those around him that he got it under control - mostly Nate himself. But when a person from his past appears and threatens to take away the ones he holds closest to his heart, he has to stand up and fight like never before.
