Series Name: Gravel Road: Award-Winning Realistic Teen Fiction
Theme: Hi-Lo, Gender Identity, Prejudice, Mixed Martial Arts
What if everything you believed in was a lie? Eric's old girlfriend moves back to town. Even before he sees her, old feelings stir inside him. Danielle has kept a secret, though. She has never been comfortable in her own skin. Now she identifies as male and goes by Dan.
What does it mean to live your truth, and what happens when others are cruelly ignorant? Eric's honesty and integrity are questioned. Will he let prejudice destroy what was once a deep friendship?
Hard-hitting, contemporary young adult fiction is not trendy--it's not dystopia. There are no vampires, no werewolves, no castles. It's real life. It's unflinching. Gravel Road highlights the talent of YA authors committed to creating realistic fiction with emotional authenticity. No topic is off-limits: suicide, homosexuality, drugs, rape, gangs, bullying. Teens live with this reality each day. And they find a way to survive. Each paperback book is 116 to 275 pages.
