Summer in Missouri

By Michael G Mondloch

In the sweltering heart of a Missouri summer, four young lives collide on gravel roads, beneath bonfire skies, and inside the quiet tension of small-town secrets. Alan and Jack - Marine Corps brothers turned farmhands - navigate loyalty, love, and the long shadows of their past. Tammy and Dawn - resilient, sharp, and full of heart - find themselves caught between hope and heartbreak as they face family struggles, fading innocence, and the thrill of first love.
Set in the mid-1980s, Summer in Missouri blends romance, suspense, and nostalgia into a story rich with emotional truth. From demolition derbies and cassette tapes to stolen kisses and whispered fears, this is a tribute to the friendships that shape us, the places that hold us, and the moments that change everything.
A novel about growing up, standing firm, and finding light in the darkest corners - even when someone's watching from across the street.
