After getting in a fight with his best friends from high school—his bros—shortly after graduation, Griffin Nichols is faced with a reality he’d never imagined. He’s alone. In his version of manhood, he figures he needs to stash his feelings, packing them away among the ruins like dusty remnants. His job is to keep solitary watch, keep trudging through the dust, and keep protecting his jailed heart. Then he meets Maxwell Wallace, and she challenges everything he’s ever believed about what it means to be a man, flinging the jail door wide open. But is Griffin ready to face those feelings when they are too heavy to carry alone and he thinks it’s his job to do so?

As a kid, CL Walters’s world revolved around two things: stories and make believe. She’s built a real life around those two passions as a teacher of stories and a writer of make believe. From a small town in Oregon, she attended college in a smaller town in Oregon majoring in English and adding experiences to fill her creative reservoir. She married her college sweetheart and moved to Hawaiʻi where she now lives. The rich diversity and cultural complexity of Hawaiʻi has added to the tapestry of her creative journey. In 2020, she started Mixed Plate Press—a publishing imprint—with her husband and has grown it into a thriving business as a published author, writing coach, ghostwriter, editor, and teacher. She says she reads and writes everyday and her mission as a writer is to create stories that resonate with the truth and offer a place of hope.
