Summer's are hot down on the beaches of southern Georgie. Kayle Royal knows this, living her entire life on the small shores of Tybee Island. Kayle now finds herself on the brink of her senior year of high school and absolutly nothing to show for it. She's never once been kissed by a boy other than her kid brother Jacob or her father. She hasn't done anything you'd call dangerous and dosen't want to be known as a "delinquant." Soon Kayle relizes that maybe she's been running away from something her entire life, herself. 

Kayle needs something or maybe someone to make this summer special, worth remembering. She makes a list of things she wants to get accompished with her best friend Lily Johnson before the clock stricks midnight on the last day of summer. Love, parties, boys, friendships, finding yourself, and heartbreak. Isn't that what a summer of firsts is supposed to be about?

When Leah first hooked up with Landon, she thought it would be a one time thing. Once turned into twice, turned into countless times. Now, she's wondering if it's all been worth it. Has she been wasting her time with someone who will never want anything more? After all, Landon has never been one to settle down with anybody, why would he start now? He's the guy you call for a fun time, not a serious relationship. Leah isn't even sure that word is in his vocabulary. Maybe it's time to break off their whatever-you-call-it and find someone who knows what the word serious means. Landon has always been the "fun-time guy", the one you call if you're looking for a party or a one-night stand. He's never thought twice about that label or what it might mean for his future in the romance department. Hell, he never thought he'd think the word romance until one decision on a fateful summer night proved how quickly things could change. He'd always imagined hooking up with Leah. She was sexy, single, sassy- everything he thought was important in a woman. Landon never actually expected her to say yes when he jokingly suggested they have some fun late one summer night. After that, everything changed. He couldn't get enough of her. The more time they spent together, the more he wanted to be around her, and strange new feelings started to bloom in his chest. Is it love, or something else? And would it be enough to show Leah how he's changed, or would it send her running faster toward the hills? Find out soon in Hot Summer Nights.

Summer Jones doesn't have a perfect life - a crazy half family, dropping grades and absolutely no idea on what she's doing in life. This tomboy has no care in the world about anything except her sleep, food and loved ones. In that order (or not). But someone's about to crash that scale of preference and make her mind even crazier. Caleb Anderson seemed to have a perfect life. He had the looks, the crazy psycho girls running behind him and amazing soccer skills. What more could he need, right? Wrong. All he needed was a wild Summer Jones to spice his life up and all she needed was an arrogant Caleb Anderson to show her how to live fully in life. Would these two completely independent people, go past their hatred for each other and depend on that one chance brought to them? *** "I just got started. Wait and watch how I ruin your entire existence." He narrows his eyes at me, challenging me to come at him. "Are you sure you didn't just walk into the wall when you were young? You seem to have had your head hit pretty bad considering the consequential brain cells loss." I say while crossing my arms over my chest to get my point across. "Take care of those heavy words, blondie. You might just have to pay for them." That seemed to anger him so I smirked even more, despite him calling me blondie. Trust me, I've got that a lot. "It's okay, I anyways don't deal with cheap stuff like you." I throw him the most sarcastic smile I could ever muster. Told you it's a love-hate relationship. A humorous non-cliché story with absolute madness, relatable characters, lots of laughter and lots of conflicting emotions from Summer and Caleb. Warning: contains some abusive content. Written by a 16-year-old who has no idea on how to write all this. Promise it gets better after a few chapters :) *** Ranked #1 in badboy on 13/11/2019 #1 in summer #7 in #teenfiction #2 in #hateatfirstsight #1 in Caleb

Lila Daniels has spent all of her life living under the protective wings of her three older brothers, Charlie, Lucas and Tucker or in the gymnastics gym training.

Being forced to transplant her life to the small town of Romeo without her brothers or gymnastics means Lila is on her own for the first time in her life. How is she supposed to start over from scratch and make new friends now?! The thought of having to meet all new people for someone who likes to fly under the radar is hard enough, but to do it at age sixteen? That feels impossible. As fate would have it, Lila meets Payton Johnson on her first day at RHS who introduces her to Rachel, Kelly and Claire. The five become fast friends. The girls make it their mission to break Lila from her shyness and make Romeo feel like home. Oh, and they also recruit her to join their cheer team which isn't something Lila ever thought she'd feel confident enough to do. Then there's Tyler Johnson. He's the senior football captain, star quarterback and most popular guy in school who happens to also be Payton's older brother. Lila doesn't want to catch feelings for her new besties brother, but quickly realizes you can't really control who you crush on. It's not like Tyler would ever go for her anyways, when he's got so many other girls begging for his attention....or would he? If you're looking for a coming of age love story with strong female friendships, comic relief, overly protective brothers, self discovery, silly small town traditions and a slow burn....then look no further! #1 in "Cheerleader" August 2022 #1 in "Journal" November 2022 #1 in "First Kiss" May 2022 #1 in "Small Towns" May 2022 #8 in " Teen Fiction" June 2022 #2 in "Football" August 2022 #2 in "chick lit" August 2022 #1 in "Teen Romance" September 2022
