❝This is a story about a bunch of teenagers who attempt to take on the world - which is kinda hard to do when you live in a small town.❞ Meet Benjamin Carter: a cheeky-grinning, surfboard-riding fuckboy if you've ever seen one. Charlie Carter: newly seventeen and already hitting a quarter-life crisis. Mackenzie Lawrence: bold, brash, bisexual, and - as she likes to refer to herself - a 'budget version of Beyonce.' Jesse Tuitama: an aspiring professional skater who's wiser than his years. A mission to discover the identities of an adopted daughter's birth parents. A romance that begins on a soccer field. A party girl caught up in an abusive relationship. A broken family and a boy trying to hold it all together. Four friends attempting to navigate their last year of high school and make it out alive. Every character is flawed. Every character is worthy of love. This is a universal reflection of you, and of me. This is BEAMERS. [Written in a format that's a cross between a pseudo screenplay and a novel, each chapter is a different episode focusing on one character's perspective at a time. Reads like you're watching a television show play out before your eyes. Set in a sleepy fictional New Zealand town and written by an author with a background in youth work, this story aims to shine a light on the lives of Kiwi teens and the issues they face everyday, including sexual abuse, mental illnesses, internet bullying, and drug use.]

Liam thought that the only significant event that would ever occur in his life would be his parents getting a divorce. But that's where he was wrong. Suddenly, Liam's average Australian teenage boy life is thrown up into the air when he and his mum decide to move to California. Liam finds himself with a buzzing social life that he never had before and of course, a beautiful girl living next door. Will the craziness of teenage life get in the way or will one shake be all it takes? *AUTHOR'S NOTE* I just wanted to say that I'm sorry to anyone who was waiting for me to take this story further. I feel like I hit a bit of a brick wall. I love this story, it was the first time I started writing for me and not for school. I was getting some major writer's block when it came to this story which felt weird because the creative juices had been flowing up to this point. I love this story and the characters and I finally realised that any writing I tried to force out would be really bad quality and that it could ruin the story. I do realise that this is very frustrating; I would be annoyed if someone did it to me. But I really think that in this case, less is more. I may come back to this story one day, but I make no promises. I feel like my time with Liam and Saskia has come to an end. They can enjoy their summer in peace! Basically, this is just a feel-good summer read, and I hope I've brought you some enjoyment at least. xx RomanceWriter2000 :)
