He and his boyfriend Luke were spending almost every day together, his English had gotten a lot better, and he was finally adjusting to life in Cathcart, Newfoundland. But everything shatter's when his best friend, who's also Luke's sister, Lena goes missing. Not satisfied by the lack of attention Lena's case is receiving, the boys decide to start a podcast to find people who may help them and to get their own answers.

Ashlyn hasn't spoken a word since the age of eight, and her heart's never felt more protected. But, when the confident and ever so charming Derek stumbles into her quiet little world, her emotions-and forbidden desires-have never been so loud. ***** For twenty years, silence is all Ashlyn Holland has known. Haunted by the memories of her father, and the harrowing song of the ocean that stole him from her, Ashlyn maintains a safe distance from the rest of the world. Treading carefully the sea of fear and anguish that surrounds her, Ashlyn is determined to do all she can to protect her heart from such a tragic loss striking again. In silence, she grieves. In silence, she is safe. In silence, she finds the strength to breathe. But the silence can only last so long... Derek Moreno is charming and devoted, and quick to see through every wall Ashlyn erects. With his arrival in town, defences fold and walls begin to crumble, the songs of her heart reaching new heights. Together, they crest twin tides of fate, the silence she'd once sought engulfed by his gentle touch, and the whispers of a love thought impossible. For the summer, Ashlyn welcomes the noise. The disruption. But, the ghosts of Derek's past will no longer remain silent, and their deafening power has the potential to drag them both into a current strong enough to drown them amidst their heartache.

Michael wasn't the type of guy to fall for just anyone. It wasn't his fault he turned out to be gay. If not for his father claiming it was a good thing, he wouldn't have questioned his sexuality at the age of 12. He didn't have a thing against homosexuals, but not many people in his city accepted him. Moving to another country was his best option and that's exactly what he did. Sydney wasn't your typical girl. Opposite of Michael, she went after any and every person who showed interest in her. She didn't grow up learning the pros and cons of being bi. Her mother didn't seem to care and her father was barely around to care. Her best friends were guys who had dated each other, putting the thought in her head that being a homosexual was the way to live. During a vacation for Sydney and her friends and Michael's big move, Sydney literally falls into his arms. Michael is hesitant about having a new girl friend, considering many girls always threw themselves at him without knowing he was gay. Sydney was more hesitant about Michael's sexuality. Though she had surrounded herself with her gay friends, she couldn't figure out if he was gay or not. As the relationship between the two grow, they began to realize their true feelings for each other. Is it just a phase or is it really affection? Sydney's friends try to convince her not to get too close to him. Michael's parents are equally happy with his sudden change as it was his choice. Will they continue to be the friends they thought they were? Or will this accidental meeting turn unto a strange passion? © 2020 💦XÃÑĐŘÍĄ Starting date: September 14, 2020 Ending date: November 23, 2020 Edited Starting date: May 16, 2021 Ending date: May 17, 2021

With a drug lord for a father and an addict for a mother, Jade Taylor was dealt a pretty shabby hand in life. Her childhood was spent in a constant state of fear, her only solace being her two half-sisters -- Charlotte and Bailey -- who were forced to live the nightmare alongside her. But things all changed when their father got sent to prison. Eight new social workers and five foster families later, the girls finally found their home. Now, at eighteen, Jade is counting down the days until her exams are over, excited to spend a stress-free summer with her boyfriend, her two best friends, and her forever family. Unfortunately, things don't always go to plan -- not in a town like Greencliff. Upon meeting the Coleman brothers -- a family that fits so well into the 'gang' culture she so desperately wants to avoid -- Jade finds herself teetering on the edge of a blade, carefully balanced between the life she wants and the life she wants to escape. And when she catches the eye of Lucas Coleman, the eldest of the brothers, it's only a matter of time before she falls. Only one questions remains: Which way will she land?
