The Summer of Inheritance

Arabella Hayes has known Sterling Point as home since she was eleven years old. Over the years, she has remained the same sweet and caring girl she has always been, the kind of person who is there for everyone, even when no one thinks to be there for her. As a neglected middle child with a mother who was often absent, Bella learned to care for others long before she learned how to care for herself. She was caring, but lonely.

Until she met Ellis.

Ellis had always been the kind of person who kept things to himself. He was easygoing on the outside, but Bella was one of the few people who could see past that. She knew when he was stressed, when something was bothering him, and when he needed someone without having to ask.

Over the years, the two became inseparable.

The pair has always shared a close bond, even as Bella is sixteen and Ellis is eighteen. He knew when she was faking her happiness, and she knew when he was struggling. However, as new people arrive in their lives and secrets begin to uncover, will the bond between Arabella and Ellis dim? Or will it change and become stronger than ever?
