At $4.99, this two-novel bundle is a great bargain, with the retail prices of both books totaling $10! Both novels feature daring and rebellious young heroes (both male and female) who are not afraid of impossible challenges.1. The Wrong Side of the Tracks (Books 1 & 2 - Complete Story)14 year old Stephen moves into a tough neighborhood and soon finds himself in love with Kristine, one of the prettiest girls in his class. Kristine appears to like him, too, but Stephen learns she "belongs" to a big, mean football player who's three years older. Despite warnings from his best friend, Stephen moves ahead anyway. All hell breaks loose. Will Stephen allow himself to be shoved into the background, or will he win the girl he truly loves?5 Stars! Wrong Side of the Tracks is set in the teenage hell known as high school. -- Cindy Harrison5 Stars! Very well-written, exciting, and keeps you reading till the end! -- Billie J. Copas5 Stars! a great book with a lot of turns and twists in it. -- MacKenzie BeckerFrom Dustin ReviewsThe Wrong Side of the Tracks was one of those remarkable reads that sucked this reader right out of the real world and into Wells fictionalstory book universe. When one finds such a read, it's magical. From the first paragraph, I was reminded of the 1986 American dramatic film: Stand By Me, directed by Rob Reiner. Based on the novella The Body by Stephen King which starred Wil Wheaton, River Phoenix, Corey Feldman and others. Reading The Wrong Side of the Tracks was like visiting old friends that I hadn't seen in years. Although Stephen King's and Mike Wells stories are quite different, they share a similar overall feel. Wells brought the teenage (main) characters to life in a way that I felt I was actually part of the story itself, although I was a silent observer. Wells descriptions and dialogue are spot on and weaves a very realistic and believable story. The Wrong Side of the Tracks holds true to Wells reputation as a writer of 'unputdownable' novels.2. The Mysterious Disappearance of Kurt Kramer (Books 1 & 2 - Complete Story)Seventeen year-old Rachel is crazy about Kurt, but she’s not sure the feelings are mutual. When his parents invite her and his best friend on a family vacation in Aruba, they see a meteor come down on the beach. When they go to investigate, Kurt vanishes. He soon begins to communicate with Rachel and his family in bizarre ways that shake everyone to the core. Rachel realizes that Kurt is stuck between worlds...and that she’s the only one who can bring him back.Reviews:"Mike Wells has written an imaginative thriller and left us hanging on the precipice of a magnificent mystery." - Dan Glover"I really like Mike Wells's style, and this story did not disappoint.
