Nora Kane was drowning on dry land. All her life, she'd been thrown from foster home to foster home. Some of them were at least okay. Others...not so much.

When Nora has decided that she'd seen enough cornfields to last her the rest of her life, she applied for a foreign exchange student program to Bondi Beach, the largest beach in Australia. After all, what can be better than a change in scenery and a very stable home?

Mouse is ready for a change in his life. Lifeguarding has always been his dream job, and owning a flat right next to the beach where he works is also pretty great. But he's lonelier than he thought he would be, and it's time for someone new to step into the scene. Maybe a foreign exchange student is exactly what he needs.


Or, Nora goes to live with Mouse as a foreign exchange student.

This story is not a romance, nor will it contain any sort of smut because that is gross.

Let me give you some information about me. When I was four, I was given the gift of intelligence because I read a lot of high school books, college books, and old history literature books. My parents thought nothing of it until my elementary school district noticed how advanced I was so they decided for me to skip elementary school and middle school and head into high school when I was six years old. My mother was shocked about it and wanted me to do however my father didn't think I should due to me being too young. That was one thing that my father disapprove. Skip 4 years and I was about to finish high school so I could get into a one of the colleges I applied but I still had a bad relationship with my dad. Mostly because of my little sister, Melissa who is two years younger than me. She would tell my dad lies and me and him would argue constantly. But one day, everything went bad.

"Knock, knock?" Reed breathed next to her ear. It's been around three hours, she's come accustomed to it by now. Rolling her light green eyes. "Who's there?" "Who would you like it to be?" It was so soft in her ear, the sweet smell of his cologne taking her back to the ocean, wind whipping her hair wildly. His voice was deep and held a flirtatious tone to it. Her throat tightened when she realised what he meant by his words. "You smell really nice," he murmured, but it sounded like it wasn't supposed to be heard by her, or for him to have said it out loud, leading Birdie to have a burning sensation running up her neck and pooling in her cheeks. |~•~| ❝ i promise you 'right person wrong time' is a real thing. ❞ Birdie Wright, a twenty-four-year-old, blogger and aspiring reporter, is looking forward to becoming an intern at Chicago Fox News after receiving the phone call.

Love is strange. It exists in many forms and is one of the key components that makes humans happy, but there isn't a lot of understanding surrounding it. At least not the kind of understanding with which the average person identifies. Agnes is one of the few people that can accept all kinds of love. Despite her dated name, she is a woman in her late 20's dealing with the death of most of her family. She's now stuck in the middle of figuring out how to raise children that she never saw in her future and deciding what love means for her, when it has to exist within layer upon layer of complication. She let go of her boyfriend after almost a decade because their love wasn't meant to exist under the strain of children, only to find herself confronted with the overpowering connection of her old high school sweetheart. The same man she ran away from because their values hardly aligned when it came to how love should be expressed long term. Within the midst of learning how to raise children and balance her ever-building career, Agnes tries to recover from her mother's death, seek comfort without complicating her circumstance, and figure out why her mother would name her Agnes. Finding real comfort starts to feel impossible, as her most available options are her ex-boyfriend and her assistant. Completed! Rejected 6 times** "This one just isn't for us." By far the most plain rejection I have ever received and I can respect it. 1/22/2022 - 1K 9/28/2022 - 10K
