Published version edition 1 (2023) 2nd edition is released only (Feb 2025) The novel version with all bonus chapters and the extended Epilogue that was wished for in the original version. Florence isn't just dealing with the usual troubles of coming of age, she's also developed a crush on the silent boy sitting across from her. A boy she's never even spoken to, at that. Just watching him was enough, exchanging silent glances and noting the way he keeps his noisy friends in check. When a mutual friend causes their paths to cross more often, her hope that the crush might not be entirely one-sided blooms. But life can't all be roses. When one thing seems to look up for the sunshine girl, another quickly turns south. Her already strained relationship with her parents morphs the more she goes out and enjoys her youth, and the closer she gets to the silent boy she likes, the more resentful her parents seem to grow. Now she has to walk the tightrope of keeping up her sunny appearance everyone knows her for while hiding a dangerous secret. Sommerstall Academy is a contemporary teen romance story between a quiet boy with outgoing friends and a girl that likes flowers filled to the brim with cute, funny, and occasionally heartbreaking moments- not to mention steamy scenes...

Perspective is a funny thing; Stirling Thomas, those two words alone were enough to have anyone running in the opposite direction and cowering in fear.

When his sweet old mama invites the girl next door to live with them for a while he has to learn how to find the balance between being a brutal crime lord or revealing something nobody ever thought he had - his heart. This isn't a gang story per say, it's more about the man BEHIND the gang. 🩶

There are many lines in this world we shouldn't cross: the line between right and wrong, the line between ethics and morals, the line between love and hate... There are many lines that are drawn out for a reason, but they're also drawn out thin, making it impossible to not slip to the other side at least once. ------------- Hannah Hale has never been one to cross the lines. She's never desired to. When her best friend Olivia forces her to sneak into a club one night, she's already crossed the line of right and wrong. Getting caught at the wrong place at just the right time throws Hannah into a whole new world that she never knew about. A world that causes her to cross every line possible. Ace Russo is the heir to the Sicilian Mafia. He's cold, evil, and ruthless. Most importantly, he has no problem crossing the lines. When a drug deal in America goes awry, he's forced to cross the line, and border, by kidnapping a witness and holding her hostage in Sicily. The question is, should lines ever be crossed?
