It was supposed to be a mid-year getaway for influential teenagers or children of rich parents from all parts of Nigeria. It was that annual summer camp which everyone above the age of sixteen looked forward to attending every year since its incorporation. It was Hillsview Summer Camp. ♡︎♡︎♡︎ The fourth annual Hillsview summer camp brings about things unexpected in all eight of the teenagers' lives. From the arrival of an intercontinental teenage star, to a near suicide, an addiction, and possibly an obsession, their stay is nothing like they imagined. Soon enough, they realize the meaning behind the popular saying, "Don't judge a book by its cover". Safe to say, none of them can predict the outcome of sitting together on that table the first night of camp. Surely, it is a night to remember. "Even the seemingly perfect people have that one thing which traps them" "Who would've known that all it took was fourteen days?" Do not plagiarise. I do not own the images used in this book.

To some it was hell, to some it was home. To some, it was a place to catch cruise and live your best life. To some it was a place where you ruled, where you were the main man at the top of the food chain. To some it was a place to hide under a façade. To some it was a place that determined what the future held. But to all, it was a place that brought challenges - physical and emotional. A place that brought self-discovery; a place that exposed the secret and the reality of life. Final year at River Brook Academy had finally come - basically what every secondary school student looked forward to. Suffice it to say, that it wasn't half as normal as the other years they'd spent. It came with whirlwinds, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes...but what happens when Ore Jumai, Ayo Balogun, Bolu Jayeola, Nina Ogbeide and their friends all learn what they truly needed? Would they be able to take it and stand? Or would they leave it and fall to the ground? ****** Started: 24th December, 2020.

Jamal Inioluwa Bamidele has known pain all his life. Diagnosed of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, due to a child hood accident that he barely got out of, Jamal suffered from Incessant Nightmares and Panic Attacks while growing up. His life was one big Hurricane, a deadly Hurricane he wasn't sure he would get out of. Until She came... ...and for once He felt Peace ****** On the outside, Mateo Seyifunmi Craig was the most out going, care free and jovial person anyone could ever meet but on the inside, he was just a ticking time bomb waiting to explode. ...and he needed someone to diffuse that bomb so desperately. **** They say the Eye of the Storm is the calmest part of the Storm. Was that what they needed? A safe haven? A LightHouse? (Disclaimer:None of the pictures that would be used in this book are mine. Credit to the real owners)

"Fancy meeting you here, Kaima." The sardonicism laced in his tone is beyond sickening. I just can't believe it; he is standing right here before me. It is not a mirage. The times I had caught glimpses of him, I thought that perhaps I had started seeing things but I wasn't. He is really here. "Who's Kaima?" Kiki finally asks. Her voice holds traces of uncertainty, doubt and I don't blame her. I haven't been completely honest with her after all. I open my mouth to speak but no words come out. It is as though an invinsible force prevents me from speaking, forcing the words back down. I feel my lungs tighten, they constrict painfully within me. It has suddenly become too hard to breathe as I look from Kiki to him and back to her. Next to get affected is my vision. It gets so blurry as oxygen is literally being squeezed out of me. A full on panic attack hits me but that is not my major worry. He is. He has come to torment me again, to destroy my life once more... ~~~~~~~~~~ We are all broken in our own way, some more than others. There is a past that damaged us and experiences that shattered us. It's often a wonder if there really is a way forward when shit hits the fan. Do we struggle to be fixed? Do our bleeding hearts ever fully heal? The depression we fall into, does it ever really go away? Do we ever let go of this gut-wrenching past? Does the guilt and trauma that come with the past torment us to literal death? All these translates to one simple question: What really happens After the Past?

We're all broken, all beautifully Imperfect. They say these would be the best days of our lives but does that mean it could be the worst too? For a typical Nigerian teenager, secondary school days, especially the senior years are supposed to be the best, endless fun, happy memories, hangouts, friendship, and even first loves but for Kunmi, a girl who suffers extreme low self-esteem due to body shaming, she just wants to remain unseen for the rest of her secondary school days. A friendship with the queen bee of her school leads her to another group of teenagers, especially Adam, the pretty boy with the golden smile and for the first time, she felt she could truly belong somewhere but then, all is not what it seems with the group of teenagers as some of them have even bigger demons and secrets, secrets that'd mar them forever. Follow these teenagers on their journey to self-love, self-discovery amidst secondary school drama, setups, makeups, and well, brain-busting twists.

Tiana Dakoba isn't who everyone thought she was. To everyone, the mere sight of her oozed confidence and pride. She was the "It" girl. But no one knew the battle raging inside her. Tyler Adebiyi-Williams has always been one to mask his true emotions, using his art as an escape from what he was really feeling inside. Two Teenagers from Two Different Worlds. One is a broken Angel, the other a fallen Soldier. Clashes of emotions and feelings either of them thought they would never feel. All in just one highschool year. Will they be able to help each other heal? Especially when Shadows and Monsters from the past begin to show up. **** (Disclaimer: None of the pictures I used are mine. Credit to the real owners.)

They say no two persons are the same, and it's the truth. Some are lovers, some fighters, others are stars and let's not forget the ass-holes. We all have what we go through; good and bad. Pain,deceit, love, loss, hope, heartbreak; they all shape us into who we are. In High school, as preparations for real life begin and identities are formed, these emotions are turned a notch and so does the drama. Follow the story of 10 Nigerian teens as they discover just how unique they really are and how love and faith conquers all.
