Kooksandpogues Stories

"Pretty things break easy... and you never learned how to hold anything without ruining it." In the sun-drenched chaos of the Outer Banks, where money draws lines in the sand, and loyalty is as fragile as glass, Estella Hartley was never supposed to get involved with someone like Rafe Cameron. She's careful. Controlled. The kind of girl who knows exactly how far to go before things fall apart. Rafe Cameron is the opposite. He's reckless, unpredictable- built from anger, expectation, and the kind of power that ruins people. Everyone knows to stay away from him. Estella does too. But staying away and actually leaving are two very different things. What starts as curiosity turns into something sharper. Messier. Dangerous in ways neither of them can control. Because Rafe doesn't just break rules, he breaks people. And Estella might be the first person who sees through him... Or the next thing he destroys. In a place where storms roll in fast and leave nothing untouched, one thing becomes painfully clear: Pretty things break easy.

Not the fire that burns beneath the SaltLine and between them. One island. Two worlds. And a line no one was supposed to cross. Some things divide us by birth. Others, by choice.
