Imani Carrera is a 17-year-old sarcastic firecracker with a sharp tongue and an unapologetic love for chaos. Growing up in the privileged world of Figure Eight, she's spent her life rejecting the Kook ideals her parents tried to instill in her. Instead, Imani carved her own path, one filled with music, surfing, and a fierce loyalty to the Pogues and her sister Kiara. Then there's JJ Maybank-the wild card. JJ has always been Imani's partner in chaos, her reckless counterpart who matches her energy in all the best (and worst) ways. Their playful teasing and flirtatious banter have always been a hallmark of their friendship, but as time goes on, Imani begins to feel a magnetic pull toward him she can't quite ignore. JJ knows her better than anyone, seeing through her defenses and understanding her in a way that feels both exhilarating and terrifying. For years, Imani dismissed their connection as nothing more than harmless fun, but as grief and loss draw them closer together, the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur. Imani fights against her feelings, unwilling to risk the dynamic they've built or the possibility of ruining their friendship. But the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to deny the truth-JJ isn't just her partner in chaos; he might be the one person who understands her better than she understands herself. In a world divided by class and chaos, Imani and JJ must decide whether to take the leap into something deeper or let their fear keep them apart.

♡︎JJ Maybank♡︎ Marley Bay is a local Pogue of the outer banks, she's been best friends with JJ, Kie, John B and Pope since Kindergarten and their bond is unbreakable, Marley struggles with depression and her parents who are treating her badly. Though she has a specific bond with the Blond, reckless boy, JJ Maybank, who are just friends and the friend group got rules, like the 'no Pogue-on-Pogue macking' rule. But will that stay this way? This summer will show.

The founding principle amongst the Pogues: no secrets. Unless, of course, you are sleeping with one. Three weeks ago, Parker Kate Routledge had everything she could ever want: four hundred million dollars worth of gold bars, a brand-new hot tub, and JJ Maybank naked in her bed. It was too good to last, and in a matter of days, it all came crashing down. The gold is gone. Her father was murdered. Her twin brother is dead. Now, Parker spends her days huddled in bed and her nights with the stars, wishing for John B to come back. She has truly lost everything -- her family, her fortune, and herself. JJ Maybank never expected his own words to bite him. For constantly saying he had "nothing to lose," he sure lost a lot. His best friend died, and now he watches the girl he loves slowly slip through his fingers. The light has gone from his favorite brown and blue eyes, and it's killing him. With a hole in his chest and Parker fading fast, JJ fights to keep himself and Parker afloat while keeping it quiet that he and Parker had sunk under the covers. When an unexpected message comes through, the Pogues are on another mission -- one important enough to get Parker out of bed and back on her feet. With fresh charges, more treasure, and a rapidly blossoming romance lying ahead for the teens, it's time for Parker and JJ to decide what they are...and how to keep a secret from their nosy friends.

Promises? Broken. Laws? Broken. Rules against macking a fellow Pogue? Somehow not broken. The only thing Parker Kate Routledge loves more than pushing boundaries is pushing her twin brother's buttons. And what better way than to flirt with his dangerously sexy and completely off-limits best friend? She's read enough dirty books to know what to say. What she doesn't know is how JJ always has the perfect response capable of toying with her mind. Nine years ago, JJ Maybank promised to stay away from his best friend's twin sister. And for good reason. Parker is more than gorgeous; she is incredibly smart and witty, while JJ is -- not. As much as JJ tells himself to stay away, he cannot help but turn into a shameless flirt whenever she enters a room. Parker might like that it drives John B mad, but JJ likes that it turns her cheeks pink. As the friend group's summer takes a crazy turn, Parker and JJ find themselves doing more than pretending to break the rules. The two are then left wondering what's real, what's fake, and how fast John B would kill them if they ended up together.

"And then there's Tatum or Tate for short, JJ and I's best friend since the fourth grade: one blonde and two brunettes what else could a person want?

Tatum lives in between the Cut and Figure Eight due to her mother moving her there after her father tragically died in a car accident two years ago." IN WHICH two best friends find themselves falling in love with one another during a treasure hunt with their best friends. ❝ Runnin' from time to time, chasin' emotional highs, can't get you out of my head. ❞ outer banks netflix series season one / five jj maybank x fem! oc status: ongoing | slow updates! ©hellfiresoulss
