Serenity Skye Haywood was born and raised in Coal Valley, West Virginia, a small and poor town stuck and far behind in times. Money was scarce, and nobody could afford anything. Serenity's life there was never easy. She didn't know her father, and her mother was less than perfect. Tragedy strikes her life, and she is forced to decide to leave Coal Valley once and for all. It wasn't just the unfortunate events that drove her out of Coal Valley; it was more than that. She had to run away.

She travels wherever she can on the little money she has and ends up in Seaside Cove, South Carolina, a charming town entirely different from what Serenity is used to. Full of entitled and spoiled young people who don't understand what it means to struggle, Serenity attempts to start a new life there but finds it will come with heavy challenges; she encounters residents of the well-to-do community who don't like her being there. She doesn't fit into their world. However, not all residents dislike her, and she finds friendships amongst the pushback. As time passes, her true nature is revealed to those who would want her to return home. The stories of their lives and their secrets are brought to light, and Serenity proves to be the one who truly understands them.

For the Love of Serenity Skye is a novel full of mystery, love, life lessons, and finding out that you should never judge a book by its cover, no matter what.

His eyes are steely and that makes me realise the fundamental difference between the young Ryan and this Ryan. He's hardened now. The sweet boy I once knew is probably still in there somewhere but life eventually got to him and he had to toughen up. "I need someone I can rely on. I don't want to take a person on who just decides it's too much hassle a few days or weeks in and just . . . Ghosts me." He finishes. There's a definite challenge there. He's not just talking about the job. He's getting a dig in there about the way I disappeared out of his life. As well as implying I'm generally unreliable . . . ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Iona Stewart is pretty sure she's having a premature midlife crisis. Recently made redundant, permanently unlucky in love, and back living with her parents, she's desperate for a change of scenery. So when an opportunity comes up to work in a hotel in the Highlands, it seems like fate has stepped in. The problem? Her new boss is Ryan Thorne. Her former friend. Her first crush. And the boy who broke her heart nearly 17 years ago. She had no intention of ever seeing him again after that night. And it seems he isn't that keen on having *her* around either.

It's not until she moves into his apartment that she notices just how grown-up he's become. He's no longer the scrawny boy she never paid attention to. Ripped and handsome, he's no stranger to taking women home. But he never lets them stay the night. Knightley never expected this. Somehow, he's ended up living with his best friend's little sister.

"Skye, Happy 18th Birthday. I thought it was time that you know where you came from and I knew you were ready to know more about your mother and her family and that is the reason why I picked this place to celebrate your birthday and I knew you were going to look for answers about that sign you saw in front and that is how I knew you would come upon her. So, Happy Birthday Skye." I gave my father a hug and thanked him for everything. I let go of the hug and went down the stairs. This is the time I find out who I really am. Hope you enjoy! Comment!
