Downloading No Love for an Outlaw

Grief, bootlegging, and backwoods demons collide with forbidden love in this Appalachian Southern Gothic horror debut.

1931, North Georgia.

Silvia Copeland just buried her mama. The mill is breaking her down, the town is choking her spirit, and there’s nothing left to hold her in Briarsville but grief and sawdust. When her oldest friends drag her into a backwoods bootlegging operation, she sees a chance to escape for money, danger, and the open road.

But the ridge has teeth.

Bodies are turning up nailed to trees, gutted and marked with strange symbols. Black-eyed hounds stalk the woods. And something older than sin itself is stirring beneath the mountain.

Caught between loyalty to her makeshift family and a growing, complicated love for a woman who seems bound to the land itself, Silvia is forced to decide how far she’ll go and what she’s willing to sacrifice before the ridge takes everything.

If you like:

• Southern Gothic horror (Ronald Malfi, Michael McDowell, Silvia Moreno-Garcia)
• Found-family outlaws & bootleggers
• Queer romance woven into blood-soaked folklore
• Supernatural terror rooted in sin and survival
• …then you won’t put down No Love for an Outlaw.

Sin put her on the road.

Something older and far more dangerous is waiting at the end of it.
