BEAMERS

❝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.]
