I've recently entered this story for the 2016 Wattys! Wish me luck, and remember: every vote counts!!
And now for an actual summary:
seventeen-year-old Mika Snow is spending the summer away from home, a first for her. Her mother is a homebody and never leaves town, and her father walked out when she was ten years old, claiming that he 'wasn't cut out for this life'. But now, before Mika's senior year, he decides to reconnect. So that's how she ends up in his small beach town, called Caribia. Here, she'll meet new friends, reconnect with her father, and discover a love that flips her upside down and breaks down all the walls she's ever put up, changing her perspective of the whole world.
Thank you to @AngelArianna for the amazing cover!!! :)

Popularity, looks, friends, a hot girlfriend and a promised future in football. In one incident that resulted in a horrible accident, he lost it all. The best friend, the girlfriend, the planned future and his sight. Fighting through darkness and depression, he built high walls that kept everyone out. Skye suffered loss too, but she kept strong for the sake of her little brother, Matt. With her aunt and brother, leaving home and moving to a new place seemed like the perfect solution. A new start that they all needed. Skye's plan was to blend in and keep to herself. Well, not the easiest task when it was obvious as daylight that you were the new girl at school. Especially when she, literally, bumped into Ethan. For Ethan who has been isolating himself and absolutely independent that he pushed everyone away, and Skye being stubborn and not in-the-least shy on saying what she thought openly, fighting and bickering was unpreventable. Skye saw through the walls that Ethan has built around himself. Drawn to him, slowly, their friendship started to turn into something else.
