Kelsie Newman has spent the last three summers on complete lockdown, totally unfair since she lives on Bailey's Island, a hotspot for luxury vacation homes and the wealthy families that come with them - at least on one side of the island. On the other side, Kelsie is following all the rules of summer, she's working shifts at her family's restaurant, getting a headstart on her summer homework, and staying clear of the Archer boys, who were once her closest summer friends. When her parents leave her with her older sister for the summer she sees the perfect opportunity to do the one thing her best friend Beck has tried to push every summer - the ultimate bucket list.

A Second Chance
Nicola and Gabriel used to be best friends while growing up, but she had made the classic mistake of falling in love with him, which resulted in not only the end of their friendship, but all her hopes and dreams in the worst way possible and she had fled with her broken heart never to look back again. Six years later, the peaceful life that Nicola had found for herself after running away was again shattered with the news of the tragic and sudden death of her sister. To see her sister one last time and to be there for her now, motherless little nieces meant going back to her hometown and facing the man who had broken her heart. Because that man was now none other than her brother-in-law and the father of her neices. Hi. This is my first time writing a book, so please give it a try, and I hope you will like it.

A Ray Of Sunshine
𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫, 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐰𝐢𝐦. 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧'𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐢𝐧 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞. -- Sixteen-year-old Bailey Evans is determined to have her main character summer. That means fresh starts, bold choices, and finally checking off the bucket list she's been hiding in the back of her journal-including learning to swim. So when she moves to the sleepy coastal town of Seaview Bay to spend the summer with her artsy aunt, Bailey's all in for spontaneous adventures and maybe even a little romance. What she doesn't plan on is nearly drowning on day one-and being rescued by Emmett Carson, a sarcastic, tourist with hazel eyes and the emotional range of a brick wall. Bailey's sunshine soul is everything Emmett wasn't expecting from his quiet beach break... and everything he didn't know he needed. They strike a deal: he'll teach her how to swim and survive the sea, and she'll try not to overshare her entire life story before lunch. But between sandcastle competitions, stargazing talks, and accidentally falling harder than either of them meant to, this summer might just change everything. Because sometimes, all it takes is one perfectly reckless summer, one impossible boy, and one ray of sunshine to make you feel like you belong. -- #1 in bucketlist (06/03/25) #1 in fireworks (06/05/25)Concluida
hexes for exes
EVERY SUMMER, four families make their yearly exodus to the British seaside town of Briarville. For Livia Wong, the trip had been tradition ever since she could remember. Summer was always spent alongside the pristine beaches with the dreamy-hued sunsets. The trip is awaited with anticipation, not fear. Until this year. Livia didn't leave Briarville last year on good terms. It wasn't all her fault, of course not, but she was partially to blame. Being no longer on talking terms with your two closest friends is one thing. Having them as your neighbours for the entire rest of the summer, while your parents and other friends have no idea something is wrong? The plan was simple: Livia was eighteen, about to head to university. If she made it through this summer, she could leave Briarville in the distant past and never have to think about it again. But it was going to be okay. She might not be on talking terms with the Calvert-Egerton twins anymore, and she might have always been on horrible terms with Sarah Hepburn, but she still had Brie and Lila. And her little sister, Pamela. Still, eighteen years of friendship was never something that would simply go down the drain. Livia had some work to do if she wanted to make it out this summer unscathed. Her heart had been broken once, she was not going to let it happen again.

Carrying his unease and his unfulfilled summer plan on his shoulder, George went to the City of Ocean where his life was about to be changed forever after meeting Leah. Leah was not just a stranger who barged into his life on one hot afternoon on the beach, but also came along with a mischievous gleam in her eyes and a plan of her own. Would George dare to go with her plans? Or Leah was going to be too much to handle? The story is complete. More than 50.000 words. This story is competing in #Wattys 2023.Concluida
Not So Hot Girls Summer
Not So Hot Girls Summer follows three best friends on the last of their summer holidays before starting in their careers. Amelie, Maddie and Frankie have been friends since they were children and now they have graduated from university, they are ready for their final weeks of freedom, this year with celebrations taking place in Bali. But all is not as glamorous as social media portrays. Each of the girls are complicated and with each of them keeping their issues under wraps, they begin to build their own warped perceptions on one another (don't worry, the omniscient narrator reveals all). Amelie is a relatable character for many millennials. She suffers from social anxiety, fearing awkward situations and questioning everyone's intentions. From her perspective, she already believes that she will be left behind after summer, with Maddie and Frankie phasing her out. But she's wrong. The narrative she has built in her own mind is nothing far from the truth. Maddie does care. In fact, Maddie cares more than anyone. She is the only one to have organised anything to ensure they have the most memorable last few weeks before entering the working world, even when she is secretively dealing with her own issues. It is Frankie that can't be trusted. She is the lost soul of the group who has adopted a mentality of no longer caring. Whilst some may view her carefree perspective as admirable, it is this outlook that is leading her to dangerous waters. But with each of the girls personally dealing with their struggles, it doesn't take long before the holiday turns into emotional chaos, especially when boys become involved. AmelieConcluida
