May Belle Grimm knows only too well that the hardest falls are the ones that happen when you aren't looking, and she has all the scars to prove it. But May is not your average San Fall girl, and nothing is ever quite as it seems to be with Maybe, both the good and the not so good. So when May is having an especially dark day, she decides to have herself little misadventure ...and things quickly take a turn for the dangerously interesting. Not that this was ever going to stop her from having a little fun. For Darren Dean what was to be one the greatest summers of his life, has turned into a sick sad joke. Ripped away from his sunshine life at the beach is the equivalent to being banished to hell. Hell, in his case being the sleepy little landlocked town of San Fallcon, known by the local kids as "San Fall...where even the clouds suck". His dreams of Lifeguarding dangerous breaks of Sunset Beach have been reduced to guarding the kiddie pool at the local Plunge, colloquially known as "The Toilet Bowl". So with no beach, no waves, no surf and no life, he is just counting the days until he can finally get back home to the place where he belongs. But both Maybe and Darren will learn the hard way, that sometimes the person you least expect to meet is the one you need the most. And the twists of fate that happen when you're not looking out, are the ties that bind you ...for better or worse.

Meet Lesley Parker, an English Literature student who has a rough time with her life, working 2 shifts at Jackie's to Go. She has to keep up with her family, because even if her mother is there, she isn't there. Meet Adam Reindl, a mysterious green-eyed boy who enters the store and turns her life upside down. Two hearts collide, secrets reveal, and hope is what keeps them going. *** Blurp below! As I arrive, I find Adam walking toward me. Before I open my mouth to argue, he holds up a finger, gesturing to me to be quiet. "You're stubborn, naive, and a pain in the ass. But I'm not letting you go on the subway with strangers who smell awfully bad," he says. "You're a stranger, too!" I state out and cross my arms. "What's the difference?" I ask. "Well, first of all, I'm not a stranger. We both know that. And second of all... I smell good," he smirks. "Don't flatter yourself," I mock. "Please Lesley! Just get in the car," he says. And I see defeat filling up his piercing green eyes. I look down as he sighs and runs a hand through his thick black hair. "I'll give you your keys back," he says as he raises his eyebrow, waiting for me to reply. "Fine." I storm by him and slam the car door shut.

❝ If love is blind then he won't mind if you feel the writing of braille on my heart, for what you feel is far more important than what is visible to the eye. ❞ *** Claret does not know what love is. Her parents are only names, family is just a concept, as is the word love. She understood prejudice, because she had never been eye-captivating and people did not want to love a girl without a future. One day she gets hired -out of pity- to take care of an ill boy coming from the Khan household, a well-known and wealthy family of three; Kaden Khan, an only child. Kaden became blind at the short age of twelve and has since been through multiple operations to get back his eyesight, none of which succeeded. Now, faced with a person without sight, she can finally be heard by someone who will see her true self inside; the eyes of vanity and prejudice will finally be locked up. Perhaps a future isn't something so far fetched, now. ------ tinyelephantsteps © || all rights reserved
