[ A VERY Slow-Burn, Coming-of-Age LGBT+ Love Story about the Messiness of Love and Life ]
Jackson Rivera hates Rory Harwood with all his guts. He's has been the scourge of Jackson's summer for years, and he doesn't know why. That is, until he finds Rory's journal and begins reading it. And as he keeps reading, Jackson discovers way more than he bargained for. Hopefully, Rory won't kill him by the time it's over.

~

Jackson Rivera hates summer for three good reasons - three months of social isolation and boredom at his family's summer cottage, three months of dealing with the family who shares the cottage, and three months of the worst person he's ever met: Rory Harwood.

Rory has been the scourge of Jackson's summer for years, and, despite his attempted efforts to call a truce, Jackson's ready to break the guy's nose or kill him. That is, until he finds Rory's journal and begins reading it. And as he keeps reading, Jackson discovers way more than he bargained for, setting forth a series of events that'll change not just Jackson and Rory, but everyone around them, forever.

Let's just hope that Rory won't kill him by the time it's over.

"If you want to try again, I've learned a few things since then and now I'm sure... I would make it so, so good for you..." Luke pulls back, a troublemakers grin on his lips. "You wouldn't be able to forget it." *** Dylan Anderson never expected to be back in the small beach town where her family used to spend their summers. Especially not after that one July night that changed everything. But after a recent fall, her grandmother needs a caregiver and as Dylan recently dropped out of college, she's the perfect girl for the job. So now, after years of deliberately staying far away, Dylan is back and determined to interact with the town, its people, and the tragedy that took place there as little as possible. But when her stubborn Grams and super good looking ex-boyfriend turned nemesis, Luke Henson, team up to destroy her plan, she's in for quite the challenge. What's supposed to be a quiet summer reflecting on her new life plans turns into a whirlwind of love, pain, lust and forgiveness as Dylan finally learns the truth about that summer.

Bobby is straight. I'm gay. This should be simple. Why, then, is it so complicated? ***** Caleb hated the fact that he was falling for his best friend. Aside from the stress of unrequited love and the issue of Bobby's "ex", the mere notion of his best friend was enough to rip his heart a new one. He was lucky that Bobby was far enough to avoid accidentally-or purposely-breaking Caleb's heart. Until he moves back to L.A. And, oh, the twists and turns the story provides.
