Summernights Stories

When River is sent to spend the summer with her grandparents in the sleepy coastal town of Bluebell Bay, she's less than thrilled. The harbor, the narrow cobblestone streets, and the small-town faces are a far cry from the bustling city she's always known. But as the days pass, River begins to uncover the quiet magic of the town-the laughter of old friends, the gentle rhythm of the tides, and the unexpected warmth of people who remember her before she even remembers them. Between helping at the family inn, wandering the harbor, and discovering the little joys tucked in every corner of Bluebell Bay, River starts to realize that life here might not be so unbearable after all. And when someone familiar from summers past appears, she finds herself opening up to more than just the town... A sweet, slow-burning story of finding home, friendship, and first sparks of romance by the sea.

Delphine has everything: money, a perfect summer mansion, a life people dream about. She never asked for drama. She especially didn't ask for him. Cassian, her dad's friend's son, shows up unannounced to stay the whole summer. The boy she used to avoid as little kids is now a man-quiet, confident, and way too attractive for her peace of mind. They barely talk. They barely look at each other. But every time they cross paths in that huge house, something shifts. Secrets. Tension. Late-night hallways. A slow burn she can't control. This summer, she'll discover that even in a perfect house... not everything is as perfect as it seems.

I always knew that friendships came and went. We have friends- maybe best friends- for certain times of our lives. They're there and then they're not, and you don't really mind because you're the same thing to them- someone for some time, and then no one at all. We have the 'kindy' friends, the primary besties, the high school bunch, and then the Uni acquaintances. Now, I'm not saying none of these people last, but it's rare. Because when your sifting your life from one stage to the other, not much falls through. But there's always the exception, the odd ones that slip by and weave their way back into your life. In my case, through an out of the blue phone call and unexpected invitation.
