When drifter Ethan Cole rolls into the dying desert town of Black Hollow, Nevada, he expects to stay one night. Instead, a hidden map beneath a diner pulls him and its fearless owner, Mara Bennett, into a dangerous battle against a powerful corporation quietly claiming the land for a hidden lithium fortune. As threats escalate and old secrets resurface, Ethan must choose between the life he always ran toward and the people he is finally willing to fight for. In a town built on buried promises, staying may be the greatest adventure of all.

About the author
MICHAEL CAMPBELL
I’m Michael Campbell, a writer who believes that life is funniest when nothing goes according to plan. I love turning everyday chaos, awkward encounters, and small disasters into stories that make people laugh, cringe, and nod in recognition. When I’m not writing, you’ll find me exploring coffee shops, people-watching, and collecting inspiration from the wonderfully messy world around me.View all by MICHAEL CAMPBELL
