"You're so beautiful," Jake murmured as his fingers worked their way down, much lower than they'd ever been before. Sharp tingles shot throughout my body and spread to my core in electrifying waves. How was it possible to feel scared and exhilarated all at once? * * * * * Small-town girl, Addison Monroe, has plans to make the most out of the summer before her senior year. Once school begins, she'll be bogged down with the stress of college applications, making her precious free time a distant memory. Her vacation would consist of sizzling days at the beach, rowdy bonfires at night, and avoiding the bully who'd been her date to junior prom, no matter how hard he persisted. Falling in love had not been on the agenda. That changes when college man, Jake Grady, enters her life. Employed by her grandparents to work at the family farm for the summer, Jake ignites feelings in Addy she's never felt before, and is dying to experience again. She begins to fall fast for the sexy Texas cowboy and soon realizes that once break ends they will be forced to say goodbye forever. Follow Addy as she stumbles through a summer of first loves, first times and first heartbreaks, and find out why the summer she turned eighteen became the most memorable summer of her life. *Strawberry Wine is loosely based on a song by the same name, and is the winner of The Write Affair contest sponsored by Wattpad and Kensington Publication.

Ariana Miller has never been described as one of those cliche 'normal girls'. Her favorite place to be is in an abandoned lot in the back of a rusty car shop where she spends most of her days in with her dog, Percy. So when her parents tell her that they have to leave her home in New York City to go to Los Angeles, she doesn't take it well. She never wanted to move or change or do anything new with her life. She just wanted to spend every day in her favorite place and write, read or play her music. When she arrives at Los Angeles and meets Brandon Davis - her next door neighbor - at the beach, she immediately dislikes him. But he seems to do anything he can to break Ariana's walls down. Being set on being alone and having a place of her own, Ariana's mission is to find a secret place that only she knows, just like in New York. But a lot more things get in the way of that than Ariana thought. Together with Brandon Davis, they seem to be able to handle anything. But they slowly uncover a secret that none of them were expecting. It wasn't a dark secret that would change the fate of humanity, it was just a secret. A secret that both of them never expected they'd come across. But then again, it's more than just a secret. It's the one thing that brought two individuals together into perfect harmony.
