In a world grown arid and pale, one out of every ten people will develop vertigo and a taste for rum by the time they reach adulthood. 

Vincent Black is among that unlucky minority.

But despite his setback, he's managed to build a good life for himself, helping treat others who suffer from the same debilitating and unintentionally hilarious condition.

So when a beautiful stranger comes into town and requests his help in finding a cure, Vincent is faced with a tough choice. Should he remain in his hometown to continue treating the symptoms indefinitely, or should he leave everything he's built for himself to pursue a cure that might not even exist?

Twelve years later, she wants to go visit her mother in New York but the visit becomes five years. Samantha, now seventeen and certainly not a tomboy anymore, is ready to go back to Ohio, to her family and friends, but mostly to her father. No one expects her, though, to come back looking like a a new person.

Noah Black has lived in Ohio for as long as he can remember, with his six brothers and father. His mother died giving birth to her youngest son, Thresh. Noah has always been the one to pull pranks and tease Samantha, making her life miserable as they grew up together. When she left, there was no one else to annoy, but now, five years later, when Noah hears that she is coming back, he thinks that she is still that same tomboy who can't stand up for herself. He has become even more of a badboy now, loving all the trouble and the girls that throw themselves at him. And yes, he is mateless and, just because his older brother passed it down, is next in line for the Alpha position. So what happens when they meet again, five years later, more grown and more mature? Is there hatred between them, still? And what happens when they both realize they are connected in ways they never could've dreamed of? Suck at summaries, give it a chance, y'all! :)

After becoming a journalist, Pearl was mocked online, arrested for trespassing, and challenged globally for her conspiracy theories.

She hopes that by getting closer to Dumuzi, she might be able to change his mind about humanity, as he is a councilman with power. But it isn't going to be easy. Communicating? It's difficult for her. And he is cold, wary of humans, and has weeks left to live due to an illness that plagues him.
