After leaving Australia two months ago, Hadlee has been thrown into a whirlwind that she doesn't know how to get out of. Her mental health has taken a turn for the worst. Her physical health is bordering dangerous, and she simply has not will left. The monsters in her own head seemed to have been gaining ground and she doesn't seem to have the strength to fight back. Jethro is little better. Though maintaining a steely façade, his friends and coworkers have noticed the depressing shift in his behavior and attitude. Harrison and the other lifeguards take it upon themselves to get both Jethro and Hadlee back to their usual smiling selves, and they intend to help begin to mend the tear in the young couple's relationship in the process. Will they be able to succeed? And if they do, will there still be monsters that Jethro and Hadlee will have to face? Or will it all prove to be too much to handle?

Nora Kane was drowning on dry land. All her life, she'd been thrown from foster home to foster home. Some of them were at least okay. Others...not so much. When Nora has decided that she'd seen enough cornfields to last her the rest of her life, she applied for a foreign exchange student program to Bondi Beach, the largest beach in Australia. After all, what can be better than a change in scenery and a very stable home? Mouse is ready for a change in his life. Lifeguarding has always been his dream job, and owning a flat right next to the beach where he works is also pretty great. But he's lonelier than he thought he would be, and it's time for someone new to step into the scene. Maybe a foreign exchange student is exactly what he needs. Or, Nora goes to live with Mouse as a foreign exchange student. -- This story is not a romance, nor will it contain any sort of smut because that is gross.

(REWRITING) The Skylar Experiment : Coveting
"Three weeks. That's how long I got to have drama-free. I'm not sure what is happening to me or to Oakwood. Nothing's the same since I rolled into town and it just keeps getting weirder. Suspicious agents in suits roam the streets without an explanation. They're staring straight at me. The new Chemistry teacher is NOT who he says he is. I'm doing things I never thought I could. Like, mutant-level things... Lauren, Luc's dead twin sister, hid something from everyone. Something important that may have lead to her demise and that could lead to ours. Hunters are in town. I never knew four words could contain so much dread and terror. I'd rather deal with the Wanderers. I'm on the brink of a breakdown. I need help..." BOOK #2 IN THE SERIES! Ignorance is not bliss... In the wake of ridding Oakwood of Wanderers, other dangers come creeping in and they're somehow linked to Luc's absent twin. The past returns to haunt the mutants in inconspicuous ways. Riley's life is yet again in jeopardy, but this time she's not alone. Luc and his family are all thrown into the teetering balance. More secrets are uncovered. A trap dawns on them all. Invisible threats start crawling from all directions. Who is the real enemy? TW : behaviours of depression and PTSD are displayed. I don't name them, but one of the character will be struggling a lot. It may not be suitable for everybody. Other adult matters are briefly included, but nothing explicit or intense. Rewriting specifications : the main points of the story and end of the book will remain the same, am just going to change a few ways of getting there and adding some extra spice. Feel free to pause the read until the REWRITING sign disappears.Complete

The only Kiwi I'm not allergic to.
This isn't just a love story. Its a story about a broken girl who travels to find herself, to heal and to have a fresh start; and she did do that to an extent until she broke down again and turned into something she hoped she would never turn into. Amy moves to Sydney in hopes to put her past behind and start fresh with her new job at Bondi. Where she starts to have feelings for a certain lifeguard. Will the past find her? Will she survive the past or will it drown her in her sorrows? My very first story, I'm not sure where I'm going with this story to be honest. There are not a lot of Harrison stories and I have so much love for him so I decided to write my own. Guys the first few chapters are not the best but it gets better I promise ! Sorry for the crappy description 🙈 I do not own any of the Members of the lifeguard service at Bondi beach. Characters like Amy and some of her friends are the only ones I made up and are mine. This story is just a fan-fic that I started a while back. I have so much respect for the Bondi Lifeguard team and although this is just a story I made up, I hope I don't offend anyone.
