≈≈≈He stops and looks at me. Like really looks at me, I feel like he's staring into my soul.

My heartbeat quickens subconsciously as he reaches his hand out and wipes some of my hair that got stuck to my face tenderly behind my ear.

The inside of my tummy feels like it's doing flips, as though there are a hundred butterflies trapped inside.

His fingers trail gently down my cheek to my lips, and his thumb softly trails my bottom lip. I stay completely still, not daring to move a muscle.≈≈≈

Genevieve Nikson is not allowed to surf, according to her parents.

So, she sneaks out at night to go to the ocean, the place she loves.

However, when normally homeschooled Evie is sent to high school for her final year, she is suddenly tossed into a world she has never experienced before.

As well as dealing with her social anxiety, she has to make sure she keeps her night surfing a secret.

Then there's Axel Brown.

With his extremely good looks and golden boy image, he is well respected as the best surfer in town.

Evie doesn't know why he takes a sudden interest in her. But one thing is for sure, she wants nothing to do with the cocky jerk.

But even she knows, he brings something out of her that she never thought was possible.

When there is an incident involving Axel's twin sister, the two are thrown into a wild journey that they both didn't expect coming.

Secrets are unravelled, pasts reawakened, and a love that they never thought would be possible.

Sometimes you've just got to ride the wave.

Mason 🎸 My life's in shambles. Okay, that's a little dramatic considering that my band broke up. But I don't know what to do with my future, my career and my life going forward. So I do the only reasonable thing and run as far as I can go - to Australia. Nobody here knows (or cares) how famous I am. Especially Riley doesn't care. She doesn't even like me and has no problem telling me how much she thinks I suck. Riley 🌊 He's the most arrogant person I've met in a long time. Demanding, entitled and conceited. Charming and pretty too. Urgh. Mutual friends force us to spent time together again and again. I just can't escape him. I don't want him and I don't need him, yet he's the constant dripping that will wear away the stones I've put around my heart for a good reason. ~~~ Waves is a "we don't like each other"-to-lovers book with a strong-minded female lead who has to learn to allow feelings again, and a cocky and witty (maybe unlikeable at first) male lead with a failed rockstar attitude. But I promise he's sweet underneath it all. 18+ ONLY (strong language, sexual content, swearing etc.) Trigger Warnings (may contain spoilers): 🚩loss of a loved one 🚩mentions of drugs ~~~ I'll try to update twice a week, but without a schedule this time. I may throw in a couple extra chapters here and there depending on how writing goes. Love, Izzy 🌿

"We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart.
