There's no such thing as summer vacation at Heller High School, which its students have turned into a Silicon Valley dystopia in the name of self-improvement and maintaining a competitive edge. Marco Aguilar isn't too keen on this-he'd rather spend his summer playing video games-but he's forced to take part in his school's political infighting when the school president decides he has potential for greatness.

His misadventures, including playing wingman to a controversial courtship between one of his friends and the school's vice president, reveal that for all of Heller's focus on the future, nobody can truly escape the past. While Marco grows closer to uncovering the truth behind the school's totalitarian regime, all Marco wants is a break from it all, and if he's not careful, he'll never have a vacation again.

An ex-couples rivalry for the spot as student body president becomes even more convoluted when two new, unexpected candidates enter the race. Chloe and Preston team up, each vowing to get one member kicked from the competition-- but when they both end up helping their victims to spite each other, the campaign gets a lot more complicated. * * * * * Chloe Peters is determined to solidify her most-popular-girl-in-school status with the label of student body president, so she's furious when three other candidates enter the race. Now, she's competing against her ex-boyfriend Preston McMillan, some nobody named Emily, and the school's notorious troublemaker, Finn Harrel. If it means saving her pride and not letting Preston get the best of her, she'd do just about anything-- even help out Finn, who despite his good looks, gets on her last nerve with his lackadaisical attitude and class-clown antics. Preston McMillan just wants a distraction from the fact that his wrestling team is about to be disbanded. When he signs up for the presidential race, he doesn't expect Chloe to go berserk, nor does he expect to meet Emily, a quiet, stony girl he can't believe he's never noticed before. After deciding to help with her campaign, he's got plenty of distractions-- enough to make him wonder what really matters, and enough to make his friends question where his loyalties lie. One thing's for sure: suddenly, this race is about a lot more than student government. 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐃 (𝐮𝐧𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝) - 𝟑/𝟖/𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟗 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐃 (𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐬) - 𝟏𝟎/𝟏𝟓/𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟗 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐃 (𝐦𝐚𝐣𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐬)- 𝟖/𝟐𝟒/𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟎

My name is Delaney and this is my story. I feel compelled to give you fair warning before you embark on my journey. It's messy. It's chock-full of terrible choices and split-second decisions filled with bad judgment. It's rough, complicated and angsty-but, hey, isn't that what real life is? You live and learn through experience. You (hopefully) mature and don't make the same mistakes twice. These, however, are tough lessons to learn when you're trying to navigate through. Sure, dear reader, you will have ideas of how I could've handled it all better-I know I certainly do, in retrospect. But, I'm me. I'm human. And to err is human, right? Isn't that the popular quote people love to use as an excuse? Well-there it is. Read my life story, I dare you, but remember you've been warned. The divorce of her parents does not come as a surprise to Delaney, however her mother's swift decision to relocate to Florida throws her for a loop. After enrolling in classes at university, she makes fast friends with Shane, the quintessentially perfect guy. Jaded by her past experiences with relationships, Shane completely confounds her. He represents everything Delaney believed didn't exist in real life; stability, security and good old-fashioned kindness. It should be effortless. With Shane, it's exactly the type of happily-ever-after story she loves to read, as well as write. Enter Fin: the edgy, risk-taking artist that unrelentingly captivates her attention. Soon after becoming her partner in literature class, he becomes her one and only copyeditor and most trusted confidant. Torn between two different worlds, Delaney stumbles through a range of decisions that lead her on an unexpected journey. She finds herself left with an impossible choice: A life of contentedness filled with ease and love or a passion-filled wild ride that leaves her breathless. However, Delaney also discovers that sometimes the seemingly unimportant everyday decisions end up making the choices for you...

Scarlett & Gianmarco are farther from traditional lovers than one galaxy is to the next. They are Travellers - Celestial beings of unimaginable power, thrust into a battle for the survival of their very universe they'd neither planned for, or intended. With that: the most powerful force in the known universe threatens to bring them closer together against their will, or separate them to their detriment: an unspeakable love that blooms beneath them both, their strengths of will denied. Scarlett, a strong-willed, argumentative FIBA world-championship Women's Basketball athlete, and Gianmarco - a high-profile private attorney, young, upright, and desperately hunting for the connections that will allow him the opportunity to start his own practice: under normal circumstances: these two age-gapped interests would never cross paths any way except accidentally. However, when Marco is hired as star-attorney of Ronel Sorgic - the enigmatic multi-millionaire genius Russian muralist hired to promote the Women's FIBA team for this year's championship: their paths are inextricably collided. What they didn't know is just exactly how life-changing their unanticipated meeting would become. Overwhelmed by a love they never knew could be, an even deeper hatred incapable of definition, a burning desire for distance, but an even more powerful pull to love and lust, and aligned with a cosmic purpose neither of them are qualified of bearing alone: Will they find the call of home, of one's soil, inseparable or the call of one's purpose inescapable?
