If you haven't read The Unforgettable Summer yet, I strongly advise you at least read that first, as there will be big spoilers in this book! This book comes after The Unforgettable One, but the Unforgettable books are all stand alone novels. Amy used to be the life of the party, now that she graduated college and it's time for the "rest of her life" to begin, she's not sure who she is or where she fits in. Her family life has never really been what it seems. She's always been daddy's little girl, but now she struggles to live up to both her parents' expectations. Then again, she has a talent for pretending. Her parents have an idea of not only the kind of job she should have, but also the type of man she should marry, so she dates what they see as the perfect man for her and has fun with the men she wants. There's one man who has been a constant in her life. He's always there for her in any way she's wanted or needed and he's one of her best friends, Matt Young. They've always had the perfect arrangement, so what's changed? Does Amy deserve her happily ever after? Will she get it? Matt has never been shy when it comes to women. He's had several girlfriends, slept around when he wanted and doesn't have a care in the world. At least that's how most of his friends see him, even Amy, but he's always been a big romantic at heart. He began falling for Amy many times over the years, but she always insist they weren't serious. So, he did what he had to do and faked it. He took the parts of her she was willing to share with him. He would always be there to help her, and he'd keep doing it as long as she's safe. Now that their friends are all getting married and even starting families of their own, Matt is ready to start his own future. Will he take his chance with Amy or decide it's time to move on? Will Amy go against her parents' wishes? Will she realize she's had what she needed all along, before it's too late? ***This book contains bad language, sex & adult situations!

She then learns what it really meant to get the raw end of life. Follow as Alexandra deals with more then she thought she could handle. Alexandra might be strong willed but nothing could possibly prepare for what was to come. [Please keep in mind that this story is a very fast paced story. It does have around 40 chapters so it might not seem like it. But trust me that it is.] ||Full Disclosure|| I started the book in the end of 8th grade so it needs MAJOR editing. It also does have Sexual Chapters, as well as people of the same sex being together, murder, brutally torture talk of rape and sexual harassment. So if you do not wish to read things like that then this unfortunately isn't the book for you. ||You Have Been Warned|| First book in the Heart series. •Do Not Copy This Book In Anyway•

Available on iBooks, Amazon, B&N, and Kobo. Clickable links on my profile. One summer is all they have ... A chance encounter at a party brings Lance and Abby together. Lance just graduated and has a summer internship. His parents expect him to come back to Texas to work in the family business at the end of the summer. He likes to have fun and doesn't want to be tied down too soon. Until he meets Abby. Abby still has two years left of college and a mom who keeps her anchored near the town where she grew up. She is cautious in relationships, not letting people close. But Lance's persistence wears down her defenses. Knowing Lance is leaving, Abby tells herself it's just a summer fling. Will that be enough to keep her from falling in love? "Someone knocked into Abby from behind. She lurched forward against the guy's chest, crushing her cup against his abs and splashing the remains of her soda all over both of them. "Gah!" he shouted in surprise. He had instinctively grabbed her upper arms to steady her when she ran into him, but pushed her away slightly when he felt the soda soaking his shirt. "Oh my God, I'm so sorry," she gasped. He stood there with his arms out looking down at the mess on his shirt. Then he looked at the matching stain on her shirt and his lips twitched like he was suppressing a smile. He cleared his throat. "It's okay," he said. There was laughter in his voice. She noticed that his eyes seemed to be glued to her shirt, and she looked down. Abby gasped again. Her light pink tank was nearly see through now that it was wet." Check out Pinterest for my inspiration board for Summer Fling: www.pinterest.com/jericamacmillan/summer-fling
