Jojo and Junk: (Not an L-Blank-Blank-Blank Story)

By Nick Dixon

Unspoken love. A relationship built on secrets. A hidden letter that changes everything.

In the mid-1970s, JoJo Joy meets the restrained, yet charismatic "Junk" Manion, who is instantly smitten by JoJo's sassy charm. A quirky relationship develops that does not fit an easy definition, yet becomes intimate beyond words. The L-word is never spoken, yet truths become revealed that speak louder than words. It is a story about real, complicated matters of two extraordinary human hearts.

This honest, character-driven literary novella explores love and loss, marriage and secrets, and the fragile ways relationships cope, heal and carry on. Set against bars, backroads, and small-town rituals, it's a tender, psychologically rich portrait of grief, memory, and the cost of silence. Readers of literary fiction, forbidden love stories, poetry, and psychological family drama will find a haunting, human story that lingers long after the last page.
