Alice Valentim wanted to go home for the summer. Sure, it wasn't summer there, but that was even better: June, July and August were the perfect months to be in Brazil. It wasn't too hot or overcrowded with tourists, but it was still nice enough to enjoy the beach - what else could she want?
Except that, this summer, her home didn't seem so inviting anymore. In fact, she wanted so badly to stay away that she accepted a summer gig as a nanny in Northern Michigan. To make things better, she is unsure about her thesis, her future at the University, and fresh water beaches. She also has no idea what kind of family she has accepted to nanny for. What could go wrong?

The Summer of Absolutely Nothing
It's summer - the end of my first year of college. And I am home again, more than a little worse for the wear. College hadn't gone how I had expected it to go. After two years of the grind to get in, I thought I would find the kind of magic I saw in American high school movies, which I had been denied of in school - late nights, parties, wild adventures with whacky best friends, romance.... everything one is told is supposed to happen in one's teenage years. After two years of watching my classmates grow up and enter this world, I thought it was my turn, now. I thought my college life would be like a coming-of-age movie. But in reality? It wouldn't make a good story, of any kind - not even a sad one. The only thing I found were shiftless friends, stifling academic pressure and heartbreak. So now I was home - a little bruised, a little broken. A few dreams in shards around my feet. Turns out, I needn't have worried. The summer that followed changed my life. The summer of - after a hectic, stressful year - nothing at all. Nothing, and yet - everything.Complete

His Summer Addiction (Preview)
Jade Silva wasn't looking forward to spending her entire summer at her grandmas house. She lived in one of the hottest states, Arizona. Not to mention her annoying little siblings would be down there with her. She had heard about the family next door. The one her grandmother was close friends with. What Jade didn't know was that her neighbors son might be the hottest guy in the scorching state. An annoyingly hot guy who just can't seem to leave her alone. Is it me or is it getting extremely hot in here? - "You want this Jade," he said firmly. He tipped my chin up with his forefinger so that our eyes met and I was staring up into his warm hazel eyes. He dipped his head down hesitantly, his lips soon hovering over mine. His other hand snaked around my waist and tugged me forward from my position on the table, our middles meeting, as he stood in between my legs. "Stop denying me," he softly said, the tone of his voice creating a crack in my heart as he gently caressed the side of my face. His warm breath tickled my lips, and I couldn't help thinking. I am in deep trouble. - Book 1 Available for purchase on Amazon! #1 - Summer Romance - 4/22/24Complete

Eighteen year old Charmeine was looking forward to spending her summer break at home, reading her beloved romance novels. It was the last 'real' holiday she'd have before being shipped off to college and she planned to use it to its fullest laziness potential. Charmeine's plans get roughly disrupted, however, when her mother suddenly decided it was unhealthy for a young woman to sit inside all the time.

Charmeine's summer was finally starting to look up. Or was it all too good to be true? One thing's for sure: real life wasn't like the romance novels, and it loved to throw the most unexpected plot twists in your face.Complete
