Eighteen year old Lexington (but that's Lexi to you) Miller is counting down the days until she goes to college. She can't wait to escape her little tourist trap of a town and start her new life in Chicago. The only saving grace that Paradise Cove holds is the Pink Flamingo Coffee House, where Lexi works. Or, it would be a saving grace if it weren't for her trying-too-hard-to-be-a-hipster coworker, Liam. He is totally infuriating, and Lexi hates him. She does. However, when the Pink Flamingo's eccentric owner, Monti, leaves with no word except a note that says "Take care, be back soon" Lexi and Liam have to work in closer quarters than ever. How is Lexi ever going to survive this summer?

Love in an ice cream shop? Violet Davis thinks the summer after her senior year in high school will be one of the best in her young teenage life, until her mom tells her to get a summer job. Spending all those hot summer nights at the local dairy bar, scooping ice cream for sticky, sweaty toddlers and grandparents is not her idea of a good time-that is until she falls for the bad boy co-worker, the one everyone tells her to stay away from.

Violet's love life becomes just like her favorite soft-serve...twisted. ** This book is rated Mature! If you blush easily, you have been warned.

PARADISE PARADOX (#1 PARADISE ISLAND duology)
Sneaking into a campus party shouldn't lead to expulsion, should it? *** Colleges across the U.S. have been on alert because of rioters who all but rendered the American Ivy League universities extinct, after the end of the COVID pandemic in twenty-twenty-five. After their destruction, smaller subsidiaries of those Ivy Leagues have been thriving, thanks to donations and government grants. In twenty-twenty-nine, Junior student Kera Mitchell learns the hard way that it's actually a minor crime to crash a party on campus--it's an invasion of private property. At her university, Valence, there are still severe punishments in place for disrespect to any structures on site. Kera finds out that though she won't be expelled for her party-crashing, she did break a serious rule, and she'll have to pay for it. Along with the party-throwers, hot golden boy Miles, and drug-dealing douche Vick, she's given a punishment none of them expected: they're sent to an unknown, tropical island to learn how to control their erratic behaviors. Like a brainwashing vacation against violence, sex, drugs, and alcohol. Except Kera shouldn't be there--she's as docile as they come, and has never been rowdy and rebellious in her life. Wrong place, wrong time? The island has many secrets, some of which Kera and Miles will stumble upon inadvertently, and that will change the course of the rest of their lives. Will they leave the island unscathed? Will they leave it... at all? ----------- A post-pandemic, post-apocalyptic, paranormal horror novel. Please mind your triggers (gore, language, trauma, violence) Inspired by a dream I had and that I became obsessed with turning into a book.Complete

Laundry Boy (Currently Editing)
Seventeen year old Casper Reynolds and his goofy laidback best friend Eric live and breathe surfing. Living in a busy tourist town in California right on the coast makes for a pretty crowded city, especially in the summer. Casper's parents just so happen to own one of the most sought out hotels in the city. So when they end up short-handed during the busiest time of year they ask Casper to help out. Instead of getting to surf from sunrise to sunset, instead of being able to check out the 'hot babes' as Eric would say, and instead of having the summer of a lifetime he gets stuck with a summer job. It doesn't help one bit when a mysterious grudge-holding girl ends up staying at the hotel Casper's working at. After a chance encounter that goes horribly wrong the girl obviously has it out for Casper. If personalities could be graded like school work Casper would be a solid C. He's average. He's not memorable or extraordinary or even remarkable. The mystery girl however would be an F as in a failure of a human being. She's mean, cruel, and simply unbearable. So what happens when Casper finds out the girl has secret? Maybe...just maybe he'll realize there's more to her than a rude, crude exterior. With couple heated arguments, sarcastic comments, and a little blackmail anything is possible. *Warning* ~This is my first book on Wattpad so, read at your own risk. It gets better as it goes along though. Enjoy! xx~ ___________________________________________ Hey!! Thanks for clicking on my story (hopefully it wasn't accidental haha). Anyways just a few disclaimers. 1. The original picture for the cover was off WeHearit and after a little picmonkey.com magic it turned into that. So yeah. 2. This isn't really a diclaimer but, whatever: Plagerism is a crime and it's just plain rude. All epilogues, prologues, chapters, and characters belong to me. They're MINE. Understood? Okay good. 3. This story wouldn't exist without Sammmy134's amazing idea so thank you so much!!Complete
