About this title

Synopsis

Austin Woodman has spent his life avoiding waves. As the son of a respected leader in the small town of Hopewell, Michigan, he knows how to smile, stay quiet, and keep the peace. With his two best friends—Lucas, a musically gifted orphan, and Bree, the sharp-tongued granddaughter of a real estate mogul—he’s counting down the days until he can leave town for good.

But everything shifts when a red-headed farm boy falls into his world, forcing Austin to question not just his future—but his family’s legacy, and his own identity.

Set over the course of their junior year, West Rome is a coming-of-age story about friendship, love, abuse, addiction, faith, and quiet resistance. Sometimes, the bravest rebellions don’t make noise—they whisper the truth.
