American Wolf: A Journey of an Avoidant Heart

Emotionally avoidant James Wolf has spent his life running-from his past, his pain, and most importantly, from himself. Now nearing 40 and feeling the weight of profound loneliness, James escapes his life in Chicago for the vibrant yet isolating Florida Keys. There, he embarks on a journey of self-discovery that challenges the walls he's spent a lifetime constructing.

When an unexpected reunion with Lily, a long-lost friend, disrupts his carefully controlled world, James must decide whether to continue living in isolation or take a chance on connection and healing. Along the way, memories of his best friend Neb and the scars of his past weave a poignant tapestry of friendship, identity, and longing.

Through tender, raw, and at times, heartbreaking moments, American Wolf delves into the quiet battles we face within ourselves and the courage it takes to break down the walls we build to feel safe. Perfect for readers who love literary fiction that lingers long after the last page, American Wolf is a thought-provoking exploration of masculinity, trauma, and the essential human need for connection and an invitation to embrace vulnerability as a bridge toward healing.
