when He met Her
Leaving everything behind was never part of the plan.
Sixteen-year-old Luna Rue Sterling has spent her entire life in the quiet town of Westlake. It's where she made unforgettable childhood memories, found lifelong friends, and built the only life she's ever known. So when her parents announce they're moving to the bustling coastal city of Crestline Bay for the career opportunities they've always dreamed of, Luna's world comes crashing down.
Her older brother, Kai Atlas Sterling, understands how much it hurts to leave. But he also knows the sacrifices their parents have made, putting their own dreams on hold to give their children the best life possible. Now, it's their turn to support them-even if it means starting over.
Everything changes the moment they arrive in Crestline Bay.
Luna is introduced to Colton, Emery, Isla, and Hunter-the school's close-knit group of friends. As her assigned student buddy, Hunter is supposed to help her settle in, show her around campus, and make her feel welcome. Neither of them expects the undeniable connection that quickly grows between them.
But falling for Hunter comes with complications neither of them saw coming.
As friendships deepen, secrets surface, and unexpected challenges test their strength, Luna, Kai, and their new friends are forced to face struggles far beyond what any teenager should ever endure. Through heartbreak, loss, love, and loyalty, they discover that family isn't always the people you're born to-and sometimes the hardest goodbye leads to the most beautiful hello.
A heartfelt coming-of-age story filled with romance, friendship, family, and the courage to begin again.
