She's a heartbroken photographer with nowhere else to go. And they were never supposed to fall in love.

And the girl Harper was warned about-the reckless, beautiful mess, is nothing like the one who makes her tea when she's anxious and kisses her like she means it.

Alex Littleton is an outgoing and spontaneous 16 year old boy. He's the captain of the Greene high school boys swim team and loves, and I mean loves, to swim. He has average grades and is pretty much your typical lovable gay boy. Landon Parks is 17 and ready to party. He's on the football team and is pretty popular, but not one of those obnoxiously popular ones. He isn't one of your normal jocks though, sure he isn't the brightest, but he's not failing any classes, and there's one thing that really makes him stand out among his friends. He's not really into girls. He's never really liked being around them and at the time wasn't really sure why. But now it's got him thinking, maybe he's gay? But he isn't going to tell anyone, cause what if he's not? He'll just observe from afar and see where it takes him. When Landon sees this cute younger boy, he wants to see him more. He's never met him before now, but sometimes all you need is to run into them once. COVER BY ROGUEHOPES

Anna and Sabrina are fierce rivals in both volleyball and academics, but as their rivalry intensifies, an unexpected connection begins to form between them.

At Camp Rockwell, the lake isn't the only thing heating up this summer. Sabrina Quesada is a headstrong leader with a clipboard and a five-year plan- definitely not the type to fall for her reckless new co-counselor and bunkmate, Anna Shumate. But when the senior counselors kick off a secret summer bucket list full of dares, adventures, and late-night escapades, Sabrina finds herself reluctantly teamed up with Anna again and again. Between prank wars, midnight swims, and sparks that won't quit, their rivalry begins to blur into something messier- and far more dangerous. But when the campers discover that Camp Rockwell might not survive past this summer, everything changes. Faced with the possibility of losing the place they all call home, the counselors rally together to pull off a chaotic, heartfelt talent show fundraiser that could be their last shot at saving Rockwell. With the end of the season looming, Sabrina and Anna must decide: was it all just a game, or did they find something real at the bottom of the bucket list?
