Into the Hollow

The hollow was the perfect place to hide.

Or so Free’s dad said when they fled California, her five-year-old brother illegally in tow, to hide out in the West Virginia mountains and make some fast cash. As her father disappears with increasing frequency, Free watches her brother largely alone among drug dealers and thieves—until their neighbor Cole appears with lots of questions and determined to the crack the un-crack-able Free.

When the family she’s desperate to protect is ripped apart, Free turns to Cole for help and can’t deny the pull she feels toward the boy with too many questions—and who holds just as many secrets—finding that Cole might need her as much as she needs him.
