Loosely inspired by Taylor Swift's folklore love triangle.
"Yeah, I was born in August so naturally my parents thought it was a perfect name," I rolled my eyes for emphasis. "It gets annoying after a while though."
As soon as August finishes her sophomore year in high school, her father sells their house and moves the family into their rental home on Rock Rose Beach. Faced with this new change, August longs for friendship, especially when she meets her next-door neighbor Jacob.
"Well, I think it's a pretty name," he smiled again, which made his whole face light up. He stared at me for a minute more before asking, "I feel like I recognize you from somewhere, have we met before?"
As her 17th birthday draws nearer, August begins to recall a past summer spent at the beach with Jacob when she was little. But was their closeness a thing of the past, or will she be able to rekindle what they might have had before?

The Summer You Came Back
When Hannah returns to her sleepy hometown for a friend's wedding, she doesn't expect to run into Jack who is her childhood best friend, her high school almost, and the boy she never quite stopped thinking about. Years have passed, lives have changed, and Hannah isn't exactly free. She's engaged to a dependable man back home... but her heart wavers the second Jack looks at her like he still remembers everything they never said. Thrown together for a weekend of reunions, rehearsal dinners, and long-overdue toasts, old tensions rise fast and so does the chemistry. Jack is no longer the boy she left behind... he's more. He's angry, charming, wounded, and still very much in love with the version of her that used to run barefoot down the beach. Hannah tries to keep her distance. She tries to be polite, composed, the woman everyone expects her to be. But Jack doesn't let her hide. Not from him, not from what still simmers between them. Late nights, stolen glances, and one impulsive kiss under the stars unravel everything she thought was safe. When the truth of her engagement finally comes to light, heartbreak follows. But so does clarity. Forced to confront what she truly wants and it's not what's expected. Hannah breaks away from the life she built out of obligation and fear. And this time, she runs toward Jack. This is a sweeping, deeply intimate short love story. It's full of past regrets and future promises, quiet forgiveness and undeniable chemistry. From a wedding that wasn't theirs to a future they never thought they'd get, Jack and Hannah find their way back to each other through chaos, honesty, and finally, choice.Complete
