☑️Completed☑️ ‼️MATURE‼️ The Rainy City Series Book One: "He stares at me with those pale, blue eyes with so much pity it infuriates me. I don't need his fucking pity. 'I think you should leave,' I tell him, gulping and inhaling through my nose to stay calm. He wasn't meant to be here. 'No, in fact stay. I'll leave.' 'Don't leave,' he sighs, reaching out to grab my arm. I swipe it back and glare at him. 'I don't know what you're playing at but I'm not doing this.' 'I'm not playing,' he says, looking me dead in the eye with a desperation so heavy I can feel it in my own chest. 'You shouldn't be with him, Nell. He doesn't deserve you. He's not a good guy.' 'You don't know him!' I screech, my hands shaking. 'My relationship is none of your business.' 'It is my business when I can see what he's doing to you,' he murmurs, getting even closer to me. I can smell him. It takes me back to all of our moments and I feel that urge to just fall right in. 'Just listen to me, Nell. Please...don't be with him.' It hurts everywhere. It rattles through my bones, boils within my blood and feasts on my heart. Being here with him is too much and it's dangerous. I shake my head slowly. 'I'm sorry.' Then I run out the door." On the outskirts of Manchester, England, Nella Evans returns to the place that was once the heart of her whole childhood - Shorley Park. The rough and rundown neighbourhood hasn't changed one bit; from backstreet fights to organised crime, the town is rightfully labelled the armpit of the north. As she starts questioning her decision to come home, her once composed lifestyle is opened up to a world of tears, trouble and toxicity that holds her back, binding her to the streets, friendships and companions that she has opened her heart to. This story contains scenes involving drugs, violence, domestic abuse, very strong language, sex and mild mentions of child abuse - this book is targeted at ages 18+. Amy Robinson © 2026

Emersyn Collins is coming home. It's been four years since 19-year-old Emersyn has been back to her hometown of Coupeville, Washington. Four years since her grandma got sick, and she was forced to move in with her estranged mother in the city. Four years since she's seen her best friends. Four years since she's shared a meal with her Uncle Kiel. Armed with nothing but a bag brimming with clothes, art supplies, and a heartfelt letter from her grandmother bequeathing her the house she grew up in, Emersyn finds herself at a crossroads, uncertain about her future as she returns to her past. But everything changes when she crosses paths with Zeke Thatcher, an enigmatic stranger with his own quest on the island: to locate his father's grave and uncover a hidden connection to a family he never knew. For reasons Emersyn can't quite understand herself, she feels the need to help him. Before long, her days are spent obsessing over the charismatically distant stranger who seems to be struggling not to fall in love with her. And her nights are devoted to the images of gravestones as she tries to translate her new obsession onto blank canvases with the strokes of acrylic paints. But unbeknownst to Emersyn, Zeke is on a deadline to find that familial link. The clock is ticking, and if they can't uncover it before time slips away, they risk losing much more than a passionate summer romance. Hello, Goodbye is a poignant tale that delves into the depths of loss and the shadow it leaves behind. But it's also a testament to the power of love, and the ones who guide us back toward the light. Goodbyes are never easy. But the hellos are what make them meaningful.
