April Cotton is a charming charismatic girl, for an introvert. And she's moving away to university. Things can often become unsettled for April amongst unfamiliar people and even more unfamiliar surroundings. There is one person she does know that will be there, though. Scott, her brother. A year older and far more confident, he shows April around their university and the city and having a familiar face around helps her to push the boat out and make friends.
Saskia doesn't have a familiar face but when you're as sporty, outgoing and bubbly as her, you don't really need that sort of thing to fall back on. She makes friends too easily, April being one of her newer friends. Can these two girls get along despite obvious differences? When low self confidence becomes a problem for April, can their friendship withstand it all? And can Saskia help April become the person that she is so dying to already be?

He's a fool...but falling hopelessly in love with his best friend's sister might be about the most foolish yet.

Author's note: Before you read this, I just want to let you all know that I have grown up now and I am no longer the same stupid teenager who wrote this with some of the offensive jokes and comments that you may see in here. Clearly, I was still very naive and lacked awareness. I implore you to please read with caution and at your own risk. Some statements will be offensive and I truly apologize (I literally died from cringe when I read this again). I will not delete this seeing as there are still numerous people who choose to read and enjoy it (surprisingly) but I trust that you know better and what is right. ________________ Penelope Myers a.k.a.

For as long as they can remember Cassie and Chance have been forced into each others lives. Their parents-lifelong best friends-treat them like a perfect match, but in reality, they can't stand each other. Chance thinks Cassie it too serious, always buried in a book, while Cassie thinks Chance is too cocky and carefree, always being risky. Every summer their families take vacation together at the beach, but this year is different. It's the last summer before Cassie and Chance are off to college and the tension is higher than ever. Cassie is determined to survive the trip by avoiding Chance, while Chance is set on making her summer miserable and never leaving her alone. But somewhere in between the bonfires, late-night swims, and unexpected heart-to-hearts, Chance realizes Cassie isn't as uptight as he thought. Maybe she's just fascinating. Or maybe he doesn't just like annoying her-maybe he actually likes her. As the summer sun blazes on, their hate begins to shift into something warmer-something neither of them expected. Like the ocean they reside on, they must find out all the ways their hearts can flow. ***************** Chance cups my cheek in his warm large hand and he leans in. "What do you do to me Cass?" He whispers. I suck in a sharp breath as butterflies dance in my stomach. "Chance." It comes out a breathy whisper. "My brother would kill you." He chuckles, it's deep and vibrates through his chest. "Then I would die a very happy man, if you were the last thing I ever tasted." Then his lips slam onto mine in an all too overwhelming wanting sensation.Complete
