Summertrope Stories

Eight years after Francesca was left an orphan in a giant Orange County Mansion, she realises it's time to travel to the place of her ancestry for the summer. She spends three months in the small Italian city, Vernazza, trying to figure out who she is by exploring her Italian heritage, the culture and wondering why she can't fall in love. Francesca faces family issues with her local family, seeking help and comfort in the only guy she knows in Vernazza. Elio. The small town guy, working at his family's wine farm. Elio doesn't speak english, and Francesca doesn't speak Italian. They spend the summer trying to understand each other, while falling in love. Explore Francescha and Elio's love story in three months. What will they do when those months are over?

"Marigold May? that's your name?" He scoffed at me amazed, I rolled my eyes, annoyed. "It's seriously not funny, what kind of name is 'Rafe' anyways." he looked at me with a serious gaze. In which her summer was not like every other summer in Outer banks, and neither were her feelings. (I DO NOT OWN ANY OBX CHARACTERS OTHER THAN MARIGOLD THERE WILL BE NO SMUT, THIS IS A SLOWBURN. THERE WILL BE MENTIONS OF ALCOHOL, DRUGS, ABUSE ETC. ENJOY) Sincerely, Elle
