About this book

Becoming a Vincent In a quirky mountain town where the locals are beautifully unhinged and the "Wild Ones" families reign supreme, our protagonist has survived years of chaos with her steady rock—her best friend Benson—by her side. When one uninhibited night shatters the careful boundaries they've maintained, the line between friendship and something much deeper suddenly feels dangerously blurred. Now she's wrestling with the question that could either ruin everything or change her world: what happens when the person you trust most becomes the person you can't stop wanting? Buckle up for a steamy, laugh-out-loud journey through small-town madness where the stakes are emotional, the chemistry is electric, and the ending is guaranteed to satisfy.

Indie pop and alternative rock with a slow-burn sensuality—think The 1975, Clairo, and Soccer Mommy. Blend moments of playful banter with underlying tension, nostalgic acoustic intimacy mixed with modern, pulse-driven beats. Capture that small-town charm colliding with dangerous attraction.
