A Revised Definition follows LEA VAS who is spending her summer with her long-distance best friend, RITA KHOURI and her Egyptian family. Lea has always been what she describes as "The Thumb"─the random, third-wheeling, different person in her group of friends. While she cannot wait to spend her summer at her best friend's lake house, paddle boarding and working at their family's pharmacy alongside her crush, SALVATORE DOMINGUEZ, she dreads the moment Rita realizes that she is boring and bland. When CHARLIE HANNA, the geeky-yet-flirtatious boy next door, suggests that they form, with a few friends, a club comparing books to their on-screen adaption, Lea cannot help but wonder if perhaps this will be her time to shine, to finally have a say and be who she has always hoped she'd be...

The Summer Before by LAArms21
57 parts Complete Mature
Tessa's love life is full of clichés. She fell for the boy next door, her brother's best friend, and her childhood crush. They all just happen to be the same guy- Levi Daniels. Tessa and Levi seem to be stuck in an endless loop of right person, wrong time scenarios where one of them is single when the other isn't. One summer, that finally changes. Both Tessa and Levi are single, and the spark that's always been there seems to burn brighter than ever before as the two join their friends for another summer of fun at their coveted lake house. Things couldn't be better. Their star-crossed love seems to finally be morphing into a fairy tale, but is one night really all it takes for them to find their happily ever after? You know what they say... If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. ~ Levi did the one thing he wasn't supposed to do. He fell for his best friend's sister- someone he would never be free of if anything bad ever happened. There was something about Tessa Rhodes that kept him coming back. She was his kryptonite, and no matter how hard he tried, he could never quite bury his feelings for her. Then came the summer that changed everything. Levi finally decided to let his inhibitions go. Even if it didn't work out, he had to see what would happen. He told Tessa everything, baring his feelings, and leaving the ball in her court. One night would change their relationship forever, and an infuriating discovery the next morning would threaten to ruin them for good. ~ What happened in the course of those few hours that took these lovebirds from happily ever after to heartbreak hotel? Find out in The Summer Before.
