Bleeding out in the Land of Enchantment

<p>Bleeding Out in the Land of Enchantment is a haunting heart-wrenching coming-of-age novel about trauma loyalty and the fight to reclaim your future when the past won't let go. Set against the dust-choked streets of Rio Rancho New Mexico this is the story of Dominic - a boy born into chaos raised by grit and hunted by the ghosts of addiction abandonment and generational pain. With prose as sharp as desert glass and scenes that burn like flashbacks Dominic navigates broken family ties late-night survival deals and the aching need to be more than what the world expects him to be. From busted porch swings to courtroom shadows from stolen childhoods to the echo of love that still tries to survive this novel doesn't flinch. It bleeds. For readers of Ocean Vuong Jesmyn Ward and Benjamin Alire Sáenz - this is for anyone who's ever been told they wouldn't make it and decided to write their own ending anyway.</p>
