Radio talk show host Selina Locke was just looking for a peaceful summer in sunny Barcelona, but things can never go according to plan. Striking up a conversation with pop superstar Remus Rossi, the lead singer of the award-winning band Summersteen, at her bar was definitely not on the cards, but their lives twine faster and harder than any of them ever saw coming. Summersteen is having issues, Selina needs a good interview, and they quickly find they can help each other.

There's just one problem: both of them carry plenty of emotional baggage, and Selina doesn't think she can handle her own, let alone someone else's.

Last July by AriHaruno8

"Listen Kenzy, I know I've been an ass and truthfully maybe you shouldn't even bother returning my calls. You're right, I've been nothing but awful since we met, driving you away yet desperate to keep you close" My heart clinches, but I dared not breathe. Too afraid to give in, too afraid that if I reach for the phone, I'll call. I'll call to make it right. I want to make it right, because this man affects me more than I ever thought he would. But it isn't right. I can't give myself false hope. "Please just talk to me, let me explain. It's not you.....it's me. I'm the asshole. You don't deserve this, you didn't. ..." He pauses and I hold my breath still, fearing he'd hear me breathe, yet, it's only his left voicemail on the phone. Not him "I'm sorry.......dammit!" And that's it, our one sided conversation ends and I'm more broken than before. What happens when your world crashes? When the people you thought would be there forever literally runs through the door without a second glance backwards? What happens with taking a step outside your comfort zone? What happens when that step outside that comfort zone turns into....well unexpected? Personalities clash, feelings are crushed and just maybe that one person you ignore turns out to be the damn life savers. Easy enough, but did I forget to mention they belong to someone else? Will what happens in summer stay with summer? The beautiful cover was done by @LittleRedConverse23, go check out her great work ❤❤❤ #thebuttercupawards2020 #RoseAwards

Guess That Is How I Know You by CristalCysne

A deeply moving love story that will throw you into an emotional roller-coaster of learning the diverse facades of love. "Her presence took hold of every single person inside that room, that kind of power over people was inebriating. She reminded me of a fox looking right at its prey and still, even though the prey knows the intentions of the fox, it cannot help but stop and admire the beauty of the predator until it becomes too late to flee." Remi is a law student and even though she is young and sometimes naïve, she is by no means the kind to play with. Introverted, confused, intelligent beyond her age yet unapplied, she is an inconsistency between trying to be the best she can be and not knowing whether she is making the right choices for herself. Follow Remi as she attempts to navigate unpaved roads: a complicated and tangled connection, the intricacies on stablishing a worthy career, the conciliation of her feelings with her professional priorities, the world of new experiences, and a rocky love story. When all one seeks is that perfect moment, on that perfect spot, with the right person to feel things are finally falling into place. But Remi cannot stand being on the fringes of someone else's life forever. In order to salvage everything, a new perspective is needed to safeguard her heart and shine a light on a complicate relationship. -------- If you are reading this book in any other platform other than Wattpad, you are risking both your device and personal data of virtual attacks such as malware or virus.
