When Avalina Bennett and her family spent the summer at the Beaumont Country Club, she was sure her summer had been ruined before it even started. Her brother had dropped out of University and had turned to a rebellious party lifestyle.

All she wanted was a peaceful summer with no trouble, but while her Father smiled his way into getting a promotion and her Mother tried to pair her with the Club Owner's son, Avalina couldn't imagine handling an entire summer there. Cue Elliot Black. Sweet, sexy, sophisticated employee at the club who just happened to be the reason she stayed. #32 in Teen Fiction (24/4/16) Featured on Teen Fiction List (14/3/16) ~ July 2017 TRIGGER WARNING : DRUG REFERENCES.
