It started on Wattpad but now is EVERYWHERE! With a bestselling book by WWBG, a captivating Webcomic on Webtoon, and a film adaptation by Wattpad WEBTOON studios, you can read, scroll, or watch - there's an experience for everyone to dive into Waverly and Blake's journey. ***** In order to fit in during her summer visit to a beachside town, Waverly must take swimming lessons from Blake, the moody (but gorgeous) lifeguard next door. ***** Seventeen-year-old Waverly Lyons is from Alaska. She doesn't do sun. But after her divorced parents can't agree on who gets to have her for the summer, Waverly gets shipped off to Holden, Florida, to spend a couple months with her aunt, Rachel. There's one minor hiccup: Blake Hamilton, Rachel's seventeen-year-old neighbor. He's athletic, outgoing, arrogant, tan, and pretty much Waverly's exact opposite. She's eager to avoid him at all costs, hoping to fit in with the other kids in Holden without drawing too much attention to herself. But when Blake discovers that Waverly has been hiding the rather embarrassing secret that she can't swim, he does the unthinkable: He offers to teach her. [[word count: 100,000-150,000 words]]

Seventeen-year-old Emmy Clark keeps control of everything in her life from her perfect GPA to her Ivy League-worthy resume, yet the one person who always seemed to pull her out of line was her childhood best friend, Grayson King. So when Grayson moved away after his parents' messy divorce last year, Emmy convinced herself it was for the best and forced herself to forget the unfailing friendship she had with the rock-and-roll boy-next-door. Until Grayson makes an unexpected appearance at his mother's remarriage and all of Emmy's tangled feelings about him come rushing back in what she thinks is the only night she'll ever see him again. But for reasons Emmy can't figure out, Grayson is back for good--living at the house next door, working at the family restaurant in town, playing the guitar until three in the morning, and getting under Emmy's skin like he never even left. And even when he's driving her crazy, Grayson seems to be the only person who can keep Emmy from falling apart. Soon, she's left with her heart pulled in two different directions: does she continue to hate the boy who left or let herself fall in love with the boy who came back?
