MATURE CONTENT 18+ Endlessly floating through life in a haze of drugs, alcohol, and other toxicities, Kid has yet to find his purpose. When a chance to start a new life in California falls into his lap as old friend Hawke offers him a job, he eagerly jumps at the opportunity to let loose in a bigger city. What he wasn't expecting was to find his purpose in the wrong girl at the right time. The one who's not only off limits but completely unobtainable.

FOURTEEN-YEAR-OLD John Foster is a loner, and that's just the way he likes it. If you lay low and keep quiet, there's not likely to be any drama or chaos to complicate your life. But when John's parents move the family from Sunset Central to the beach town of Celadon Bay, his once quiet and familiar world is suddenly anything but! To add insult to injury, the family must bunk in with John's Aunt Sugar and Uncle Owen-parents of his infamous cousin, Martin-a boy with whom John, (much to his chagrin) must share a room. Martin is everything John is not: extroverted, opinionated, fearless, and most notably, a terrible teenage womanizer! How is this ever going to work? Factor in a little rule breaking, an impromptu adventure or two, some miscommunication, and a whole lot of girls, and poor John is the proverbial 'fish-out-of-water' on the shores of this unfamiliar beach town. But things aren't always as they seem, and, as John is about to discover, people can be full of surprises; even the ones you thought you had all figured out. And sometimes, getting pushed way out of your comfort zone can prove to be life-changing. CELADON BAY is a tender coming-of-age story-one featuring an unlikely friendship, a lot of self-discovery, and the heartfelt and all-encompassing bloom of first love. Ultimately, it's a story that centres around that age-old expression, "Nice guys finish last." Wait... do they?
