Inexperienced Lexie never felt like she was missing out when it came to love. School and gymnastic were all that mattered. She had goals and didn't need the complications of a relationship getting her way. Accepting the dare from her best friends, Lexie now finds herself spending the summer in the Love Island Villa. Can she put her dreams on hold and enjoy a summer romance?
Bobby has given up on the notion of love after perpetually being stuck in the friend zone. And that's fine by him as long as those friends came with benefits. His first love has always been baking. If he can make it to the final and win the cash prize, he can open up his own bakery, making his dreams come true. Now that he's on Love Island, he may soon discover there are more important things in life besides perfecting the Choux pastry. Money can't always buy you happiness, and it definitely doesn't buy love.
Will Lexie and Bobby find love this summer, or will their personal goals stand in their way? Life in the villa is more than either of them had bargained for. Will challenge after challenge, a few twists to their fairy tale romance, and some well-kept secrets be more than they can handle? Or will they get their happy ever after?

**This is my very first fanfiction, let alone first time writing a story ever. I hope you enjoy it. Please be gentle with your comments. I kept the same timeline and basic dialogue of the story, with a few changes and additions. I also kept the setting in the UK to keep the authenticity of the story, however I have never visited and my knowledge of the British culture is limited, so please excuse some of my American references.

Something More
A pact is made. An alliance formed. Instant besties. You don't expect to go on a reality dating show to find a best friend. For Kiera and Bobby, that's exactly what happens. Bobby's here for a summer of fun. He knows it's slim, but he really wants to win the money. Kiera's hoping for lots of steamy bits with the Villa hotties. Things aren't always as they seem. One of them isn't being honest about their feelings, putting their entire friendship in danger. Days of torture ensues as these feelings grow stronger and stronger. Is it even possible though? Could they ever move past friends and have something more? COMPLETED BOOK!!! This is a standalone book! It has no association to my other Love Island series. I just couldn't give up Bobby McKenzie yet!! I started writing this story after I finished book one of my Love Island series, My Sweets. (My Sweets, Tears of our Ruins, Searching for Myself). I've been working on this off and on these last few years when I needed breaks from my other stories. I never intended to share it, but I love how it turned out. This Bobby McKenzie is different from my last one. This story focuses more on his insecurities. It was fun to explore the friendship aspect of this, instead of fast lovers like my other one. This book follows the main concept of the now unavailable, season 2 from the Love Island app game. Operation Nope. Casa Amore. Judge Bobby. The kissing scandal. It's different though. Most of the challenges are completely different games. A sexy new character will be introduced to stir up the Villa. Plus, prom is cancelled!! I hope you enjoy this familiar story that's just different enough to add more interest.Complete

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book.

What if? (Grey's Anatomy Edition)
This story is 100% fiction and my interpretation of what could have happened. I do not own any of these characters, all that credit belongs to Shonda Rhimes and other writers of Grey's Anatomy. What if Callie was the one who cheated on Arizona? You only have the love of your life once, what if Callie wasn't hers like Arizona once thought? Who will fix a very broken Arizona Robbins when she still isn't completely healed after returning to work? The plane crash happened, but not the way it really happened in Grey's. Derek did break his hand badly, and Arizona did lose her leg. Mark and Lexie do NOT die. They are some of my favorite character's so I would never cut them if I didn't have to. In my story, Sofia does not exist because I simply cannot write about a custody battle if that happens in my story. Watching it on Grey's was enough for me to never want me to relive it. Some characters are going to come earlier than they are in actual Grey's, mostly because I love them so much that I simply cannot forget them. Some plots or details do not exactly correspond with the seasons as again, it is fiction, so anything is on the table. You may find some familiar questions from various characters being used for other characters, but they are so iconic and interchangeable. I hope you enjoy, this is my first fanfic , I have read a bunch and wanted to put in my two cents on what could have happened!Complete

SMILE ✔︎
I would bet none of you have ever had that dream summer that all of us want.... that summer where you meet a boy on the beach and go surfing even though you don't know how to surf. That summer where you look him in the eyes while he runs his fingers through your hair. That summer where you skateboard along empty streets at sunset and accidentally steal candy from a grocery store. Well, I didn't get that, but I got pretty close to it. Because for the summer I went to an island in the middle of nowhere so my dad could start up a new one of his businesses in his chain of stores. I went to the beach. And I met Royce... Royce was two years older than me and had the prettiest purplish eyes and blonde hair. He was the most charismatic person I'd ever met. Then shortly after me and Royce's first appearance we met Jack and Koa. It was amazing and I loved every second of it, until I realized that I had fallen for Royce. And he seemed to fall for me too! Until another girl came into the mix 𖣔 "Do you hate me or not Royce?" "I wish I never fucking spoke to you because god I hate you so fucking much for making me love you! It's your fucking fault! Fuck you!" "And do you love her?!" "Way more than I will ever love you." #5 in unrequited 12-3-2020 #2 in tearjerker 3-14-2021 #8 in unrequitedlove 5-15-2021Complete

Coffee at 5 AM √
"Wait," I put my hands on my hips and frown. "You woke me up to ask me this? Because you want to meet me every morning at five?" "Yes." "So you honestly expect me to throw away three hours of perfectly good sleep just to have coffee with you?" He rolls his eyes and smirks at me. "Yes." "And what's in it for me?" he takes a step towards me. "Duh. You get to drink coffee with me every day for a year," he points at his face. "Are you going to say no to this pretty face, are you?" I hand him a five-dollar bill. "Fine, I'll do it," he smiles. "Now go get me a mocha latte and a cream cheese bagel." √ √ √ Ella Cliff has always been the girl with a perfect Instagram feed, an amazing closet and boyfriends to die for.

"You were worried about me, Specs?" He smirked. "No, Tyler. I hoped that someone cut up your corpse and fed it to paranas. Obviously I was, you idiot! I'm a doctor. Worrying about people is kind of programmed into my system. It's a curse if you ask me," I surprised myself a lot more than I thought was possible with my answer. And what did he do? Laugh! He fucking laughed! Not full on rolling- on- the- floor laughter but a laugh nonetheless. "This isn't funny, Tyler." "It kind of is. Almost a month ago, I would've sworn that you hated me. Be careful, Specs," he squinted down at me, "or you might actually sound as if you like me." I rolled my eyes. "Don't flatter yourself. I was concerned. Don't confuse that with affection. It's two very, very different things." *** When you think that all is not lost in the world. That not all men are pricks and that not all sushi is bad. When you think that there is a light, no matter how dim, at the end of the tunnel. When you think that life isn't the ruthless bitch you've always thought it was... It turns around and bites you in the ass. When you think that the past will always and forever remain where it should be... It comes at you from every direction. Like a violent tsunami destroying everything...and everyone in it's path. Can you change what happened? I wish. Can you stop what's going to happen? God! I really hope so.Complete
