A boy with tattoos along his arms to replace the appreciation he never gets.

Ride the Waves (Author's Edit)
(I've decided to edit and re-publish one of my most successful books here on this platform, now as a mature writer. Ride the Waves is a book I began writing at 17 years old-now 10 years later it has amassed many fans and many reads. Also in the space of 10 years, I have grown a lot as a person and as a literary writer and decided to re-write my most famous book. Obviously the original Ride the Waves has my heart-that's my baby!-but looking at it now, from a mature lens, I could really do the story more justice by reimagining it. This is exactly what this is. Ride the Waves: author's edit. Same story line, same loved characters, but better writing. Hope you enjoy) Blurb: Ride the waves; It's a surfing term. Surfers paddle out to catch waves. They wait for a really good, high, strong wave, then they surf it into shore. When you ride a wave, it's not your power propelling you, it's the strength of the natural phenomenon. So to ride a wave metaphorically is to go with something already happening. For seventeen-year-old Nina, surviving has never felt like riding a wave. After losing her best friend and nearly losing herself, she's just trying to stay afloat. As she navigates the turbulent waters of grief, first love, and senior year, Nina begins to find her rhythm again. But some waves carry secrets beneath their surface. And when the truth finally crashes over her, everything she thought she knew will be swept away.
Delicate Scars
The world continued to spin on its axis, countless sunsets giving way to glowing stars, but for Scarlett Reed, ever since her mother was torn out of her life like a page from a book, the days that followed blinked out of existence. Instead of comforting nights filled with home-cooked pies and joyous dancing, she spends them restrained in her comforter, submerged in darkness, her eyes swollen from the endless stream of tears. Until she is shipped to Seabrook Island, a secluded beachside town she has no interest in making her home and thrust into the whirlpool of Tyler Evans - the boy fate knew she needed. For a single summer, filled with stolen glances in the sea and captured breaths sprawled out on the sand, Scarlett and Tyler gravitate towards each other. For the first time since her world fell apart, she had found a home in someone other than her mother. But she didn't consider that her home could have secrets of his own locked behind closed doors, ones that she'd pry open in the shadows. Ones that would permanently expose the mold growing beneath the wallpaper. While her scars were slowly healing, his were burrowing deeper. When their delicate scars are revealed, will they come together to heal, or will the shrapnel tear them apart?Complete
Maverick
"I need a surf board, please." The voice was so quiet and musical that, for a second at least, I couldn't register the order. I looked up slowly, dragging out the moment that my eyes could rest on his. "Sorry?" "A surfboard." l couldn't comprehend this relatively straightforward command. I was so sidetracked by his face. It was long, slender; dotted with freckles and the colour of fresh caramel. The cheekbones stood out prominently from his face, and his jaw was so deep set that it appeared as if he was permanently grinding his teeth. The boy's eyes were hard, but soft somehow; the exact shade of burnt sugar, and they bored into mine questioningly, surprised, as if he were completely unaware of his beauty. I doubted that very much. I had just torn my eyes away from his hair: blonde, curly and tousled, falling over his eyes perfectly, when he coughed. "Hello any day soon?" His voice was deep and scratchy now, and it was directed right towards me. Still dazed, I reached over for the clipboard with all the rentals. "Okay, in my defence, I just started working here." He laughed, and it was so attractive that I got the heart-in-throat feeling I had only experienced with Oscar before. The boy shifted from foot to foot as I surveyed the rest of his appearance: white shirt, shorts, and an earring just poking it's way out from a curl in his hair. He fetched the surfboard and put it on the counter. The money was suddenly thrust in my direction. "Maverick." he said, not quite meeting my gaze. "Reece." I returned.

A Year Around the Sun
"This is a story about our love. An intoxicating, fast-paced love that didn't think of time as a source of measurement over the course of a summer that changed my life forever. "A love that resembled a firework. It went up with a bang - outbursts of colors, sounds and emotion - but only out with a short fizzle. An outline of smoke, with the ashes on the ground as the only telltale sign that we actually had something." ~~~~~~~~~~ « further description inside » #2 IN YOUNG ADULT (2/20/20) #6 IN #SUMMER (4/8/19) #93 IN TEEN FICTION (3/25/18) #97 IN TEEN FICTION (3/22/18) #263 IN TEEN FICTION (3/6/18) #647 IN TEEN FICTION (2/23/18) #674 IN TEEN FICTION (2/20/18) #853 IN TEEN FICTION (2/18/18) (An Ex-Featured Wattpad Pick)Complete

Straight lines, blurred boundaries
"I don't know why, but I found myself staring at Brodie. His messy brown sun-bleached hair, his tanned skin, the way his tank top clung to his chest. He was wearing board shorts, just like me, but somehow he looked... different. I must've been staring for too long because he caught me. His green eyes met mine, and instead of laughing it off, he stepped closer. Our dancing turned... well, suggestive. We were moving against each other in ways that would definitely get us kicked out of any family-friendly venue. Our hands were going up each-others tanks, and down the waist bands of our board shorts. But the crowd loved it. People were shouting, clapping, and whistling. That was all that mattered, right? Surely everyone knew we were just messing around. Brodie was like a brother to me. Right? I should've stopped him. I should've laughed it off, stepped away, something. But I didn't." Brodie has been Havens' best friend for as long as he can remember. They've faced every challenge in life together. But when boundaries are blurred and everything takes a turn, Haven doesn't know what to do.Complete

All That Matters [COMPLETE]
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 :)Complete
High Tide
They say you don't know what you're missing if you've never had it to begin with. The Johnson sisters would beg to disagree on that one. They've spent the majority of their young lives being tossed around the foster care system like debris in the ocean, struggling to catch their breath, stuck in a current not knowing whether to swim up or down. When they finally get the chance at a family after living so long without one, it's not so easy letting those walls down and risking it all. Charlie and Lydia Tanner know what they're missing too, and that's a family to call their own. After struggling with infertility for the better part of the sixteen years they've been married, they've finally been approved as foster parents. They're ready to give these two girls their chance at a happily ever after, but we all know it's easier said than done, especially with a skewed system breathing down their backs. Follow them as they go through the ups and downs of parenthood and know this: family doesn't always mean blood, just like blood doesn't necessarily make a family.
