Xiene!

In 1992 Atlanta, sparks fly when the rebellious, punk-rock Xiene, a whirlwind of chaos and unpredictable pranks, collides with the nerdy, bookish Allen in the unlikeliest of places: a graveyard. Their whirlwind romance is a chaotic symphony of passion, fueled by mosh pits, late-night adventures , and an explosive sexual chemistry that ignites their souls. But Xiene's life is a constant, thrilling freefall - from a brief, meteoric rise as a rock star to the unexpected responsibility of babysitting. These unpredictable events push Allen's love and patience to their absolute limits, forcing him to confront his own fears and insecurities. As he navigates her exhilarating, often dangerous world, Allen begins to question not only the future of their relationship but also the sanity of the woman he's hopelessly, irrevocably in love with. This is the story of Xiene (Christine) and Allen's explosive beginnings, seven years before they move to Neopolitan and meet Erin in the Flaming Jackass series. A wild ride through the heart of 90s Atlanta, this novel is a hilarious and heartwarming exploration of love, chaos, and the unexpected paths life can take. Survive a night of terror at a biker bar, witness a disastrous (and hilarious) attempt at protesting a strip club, and discover the true meaning of love amidst the chaos.
