Avery has always dreamed about going to California, so when her mom suggests they stay with her friend Selene in Huntington Beach for the summer, she's completely stoked. She becomes great friends with Selene's kids, Adrianna and Owen, and together they meet the Boys of Emblem3. Avery becomes close to Wesley, and she immediately realizes that he's different from any guy she's ever met. Many obstacles test the couple's relationship, but ultimately their trust in eachother is what pulls them through. That is, until an unexpected visitor turns Avery's world upside down... A/N: This book takes place about a year before Emblem3 decided to audition for X Factor. Before auditioning for XF, Emblem3 was going to audition for America's Got Talent, but they decided the competition wasn't for them so they bailed on the audition. This is why AGT is mentioned in some of the later chapters. No worries guys, I know they didn't actually audition for AGT! I just wanted to write my story accurately so it matched what actually happened in Wes/Keaton/Drew's lives before the X Factor :) I hope this clears up some confusion! Cover by InkStainedRebel

Life in Huntington Beach, California seems to be perfect. So perfect that Avery can't believe that it's even happening. She has a great new life with her boyfriend, Wesley and her three closest friends; Keaton, Drew, and Adrianna. Everything seems to be going her way. So, of course she's ecstatic when she finds out that her favorite boys make it past the X Factor auditions. But what happens when the entire school finds out that the boys are going to be famous? Will Avery still have Wes all to herself? Or will she have to fight to keep him off the market? Sequel to Riptide. Cover by InkStainedRebel

"I'm Wesley." "And I'm Drew." He nodded his head to the class. "Well boys, welcome to Huntington, but more importantly, welcome to World History I. The pair of you can take a seat in the back next to Annabeth." Oh shit. That's me. Meet Annabeth Kade. She's a Huntington Beach native savoring the little things that life has to offer. She expected her Junior year to be an average one- that is until the most popular guy in school decided to invite her to his Halloween party. But instead of attempting to blend, Annabeth decides to make a statement. She attends the party as no other than Cleopatra, the powerful Egyptian Pharaoh. When Drew arrives on the scene, Annabeth immediately catches his attention. What is it about Cleopatra that he finds so captivating? Is it the dark black wig? What about her piercing blue eyes? Or maybe it's the way she can command attention with just a simple look. The same question running through his head is one that everyone else would like to know the answer to: Who is Cleopatra and where has she been hiding? Annabeth doesn't like being the center of attention, which is why Cleopatra is the perfect alter ego. Every once in a while, she can slip on the black wig and become someone else. But being Cleopatra doesn't give her an escape for long, because Drew is on the case, determined to find out who she really is. Hey guys :) Haha I kind of suck at descriptions, but please check out my story! It'll be interesting I promise.
