*Completed* Teegan Walters has had to spend one week each summer in a tiny beach town in California with her mom for the past ten years. This year is different. This year, she has to go for the whole summer. There's a lot of things she'd rather do than spend eight weeks in her mom's beach house with her new family, but she'd also rather not make a big deal about it. There's plenty of things that could go wrong, but Teegan's plan is to get a good tan and maybe go to a few parties. She's eighteen now, after all. Meeting Cohen wasn't part of the plan. He's dark and mysterious and isn't interested in making new friends. Or any friends, really. Teegan decides to make him her summer buddy, since they are both leaving at the end of August.Complete

two boys. two houses. two hearts. Seventeen-year-old 𝗠𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀 has a long stretch of boring, lonely summer ahead of him. So when a new boy his age moves in next door, he sees an opportunity -- for what, he doesn't quite know yet. Meanwhile, 𝗝𝗮𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗿 just wants to move on from his haunting past and get a fresh start in his new home. He doesn't expect his new, annoyingly attractive neighbour to get in the way of that. Funny how time has a way of changing even the stubbornest of hearts. And, in the same way, has an awful way of breaking them. [mature for themes of self-harm and domestic violence]Complete

Just What I Needed
JORDAN MACKENZIE has just lost her mother and brother, Nicholas, in a car accident while coming home from a first-place finish in her weightlifting competition. And while her father has also survived the accident, it feels like he's abandoned her too. Once a top athlete in her state, her body is now broken and just putting on a simple pair of pants is painful. It feels like she's lost her whole identity in the accident. All Jordan wants to do is hide in her room until the summer is over and then leave the town for college. When Nate, a billeting baseball player with the Cape Cod Baseball League, arrives bright and early one morning, Jordan has already decided that she doesn't like him. She doesn't like that he will be staying in Nicholas's room and she doesn't like that he seems so friendly and smug. Over the course of the summer, Jordan finds herself navigating (and sometimes avoiding) tricky relationships while trying to heal both her body and her mind.Complete
