My WIP: A Cactus In the Valley

"As a writer, you ask yourself to dream while awake," -Aimee Bender


I'm going to do a little bit of self-promotion and give you all a preview of my book. I am going to do this in a list/category format so you can get the whole overview.


This story is Copyright 2015 by Olivia J - all rights reserved.



Title: A Cactus In the Valley


Plot in One Sentence: Two teens are stranded via a plane crash in the middle of the desert and have to survive together.

Genres: young adult fiction, contemporary fiction, action/adventure, drama


Back Cover Synopsis: When withdrawn Terra Lombardi wakes up in a smoking airplane in the middle of the remote Arizona desert, she realizes the only other survivor is the arrogant Wyatt Hartman.

Clouded with the uncertainty of how they crashed, the two strangers head west in pursuit of civilization. Amidst the environment and dangerous animals against them, they must band together to survive and even thrive in the rocky, sun-drenched Southwest. However, the elements force them to confront their inner demons.

Told through dual points-of-view and intermittent flashbacks, teenagers Wyatt and Terra brave the sun and sand alone. But it is through the hardest times in which we grow the most.
