Florida heat had a way of pressing secrets into your skin.
Jasmin knew this better than anyone-because hers weighed on her heart every time she saw him.
Justin had moved to Coral Springs three years ago. He wasn't the boy on magazine covers; he was just a boy next door with honey-blond hair that fell into his eyes, a crooked smile, and a skateboard that never left his side.
They met at the library, of all places. Jasmin-shy, soft-spoken, always hiding behind her spiral notebook-looked up one afternoon to see him struggling to untangle his headphones. And somehow, by the end of the week, they'd become inseparable.
Now, at twenty, Jasmin was a college junior majoring in Early Childhood Education. Her parents, immigrants from the Dominican Republic, were proud-though sometimes a little overprotective. She tried not to mind. After all, she'd always been the quiet one, the "good daughter."
But her heart was loud when it came to him.

Summer Memories
Yoona's summer plans were simple: survive the history exam, avoid awkward small talk, and recharge by the sea with a good book. Falling for her brother's best friend? Not on the agenda. But when quiet, bookish Nate offers to help her study, late-night cramming sessions turn into beach walks, stolen glances, and something she never expected-real connection. Between heart-to-hearts under the stars and slow, tender moments that make her chest ache, Yoona starts to wonder if this summer might mean something more. As college approaches and the end of summer looms, friendships shift, love blooms, and secrets unravel-including one that could change everything about the bet they made during the first week at the beach... "I knew that if I wanted to make a move, this was the moment. I snuck a glance at her-her skin glowed under the soft radiance of the lanterns' flickering light. She looked so beautiful. I didn't want to ruin it by saying anything. Instead, I looked down at her hand. Slowly, I shifted mine toward hers, careful not to startle her. She seemed deep in thought, mesmerized by the beauty above us. My hand brushed against hers, then I pulled away instinctively-but when I reached out again, this time a bit more bravely, she didn't retreat. Instead, she moved closer. And when our fingers finally intertwined, I closed my eyes and let the happiness rush through me. The tension in my chest evaporated, and I finally exhaled."
