Your Character
Dallas is one of your character's love interests despite his initially aloof behavior. If your character chooses to help him receive his package from the postal office in Sweetridge, he will warm up to you and offer you the treats his mother sent him in the package.

Boone Crawford
Boone Crawford was Dallas's ex-boyfriend/ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend. Boone wrongfully accused Dallas of committing a crime, from which Dallas has been on the run for years. Dallas didn't fight the charge because he did not believe in the justice system. After all, Boone's father was the mayor and Dallas was a poor Black kid. Eventually in Book 2, you and Dallas convince Boone to recant his accusation and set the record straight. In Chapter 7, he apologizes to Dallas for all the pain he had caused and offers to pay Mrs. James's medical bills.

Abigail James
Abigail is Dallas's mother. He remembers a time when he was about five years old and she took him and his brother to the rodeo. She read a book while he and his brother watched the horses from the stands.
