Welcome to Camp Still Water - where the sun shines bright, the lake runs deep, and the past never truly stays buried. This coming-of-age drama follows six camp counselors, ages 19 to 25, as they return for a summer of sun, s'mores, hookups, heartbreak, and healing.
Some are lifers who grew up on these trails. Others are new, chasing a fresh start. But between late-night campfires and early-morning canoe trips, secrets simmer, old wounds resurface, and new tensions spark.
As the summer unfolds, friendships are tested, romances ignite and unravel, and the idyllic camp setting becomes the backdrop for deep personal reckonings. Because here at Still Water, the truth always finds its way to the surface.
Drama. Friendship. Betrayal. Redemption.
One summer can change everything - but not every scar fades with time.

Colours of The Summer
Some people break your heart. Others teach you how to carry the pieces. Sam isn't looking for drama - she's still trying to breathe after the kind of heartbreak that leaves echoes in every hallway. But when a mysterious classmate starts messaging her under a ridiculous username, when old feelings resurface at the worst possible time, and when a summer trip throws everything off balance, Sam begins to wonder if it's possible to start over - even when you're not ready. As friendships shift, secrets unravel, and her heart pulls in more than one direction, Sam learns that healing doesn't come all at once. Sometimes, it comes in unexpected laughs, second chances, and the quiet strength to choose yourself. A story about letting go, falling again, and the small, brave steps toward something new.Complete

The Best Kind of Betrayal
It's the first day of June's senior year and everything is already going wrong. Her first boyfriend and supposedly love of her life dumps her for someone else, her heart is broken and feels like it won't ever heal again and her best friend makes her join the most unnecessary club on earth to help her find new friends she most definitely does not need. Still. New chances are for new beginnings, right? Instead of falling into a deep dark pit of self pity (however tempting that may sound), all of this betrayal ends up leading her to the best friends she's ever had and the most exciting school year of her life. Oh - and a whole new fake boyfriend, to get some revenge on that idiot who dumped her. And who knows. Maybe even more.
