Summer was always magical for Katrina Catawanee. For as long as she can remember, summer was the one time of year when she could forget about people's expectations of her. There were no concerns about not achieving the best grades and managing two clubs, all while participating in three varsity sports. She knew that if she wanted to go to college, she had to be the best to get scholarships; otherwise, her dreams about becoming a veterinarian would be over. Yet, for three short months, she could just relax and be herself.
This summer, though, was different. This summer was full of expectations and responsibilities. High school was over, and all of her hard work paid off. She was going to college. Her whole life was always dictated by choices for her future, but now she is facing much more than a new academic adventure. She finds herself torn between two men, one who represents everything that was and another who represents everything that could be. Whichever choice she makes, one person will be hurt. Mixed within all of the chaos of starting college and a summer romance, life becomes quickly overwhelming for Kat.

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

Love Has No Color (Book 2)
Violet is in her final year of college, working through the process of who she's becoming and the fears that still whisper she's not enough.
