It’s a short-story collection debut indebted to the great American tradition of the incredible and sometimes terrifying prospects of a New World.

When Briar Dawson gets stranded at the airport on her way to Derby season, the last thing she needs is a distraction. She's spent a decade clawing her way into rooms that weren't built for her, and she's finally close enough to touch the dream her father never got credit for. That is, until a stranger claims the stool beside her. He's expensive fabric, rehearsed answers, and possesses a confidence that comes from never having been told no. He's also, as it turns out, exactly the type of trouble she promised herself she'd never get into. Until now. One moment. No names. No future.
