Nineteen-year-old Kennedy Greene has lived in Portland, Oregon her whole life; she's not well-aquainted with warm, sandy beaches. So naturally, when her freshly-divorced parents decide to ship her off with her self-employed, free-spirited Aunt Layla in California for the summer, Kennedy doesn't know what to expect. Leaving all her friends back in Oregon, she doesn't know anyone in her aunt's small town. To top it all off, she doesn't know how to surf, a skill taught second only to walking in Ventura. 

She anticipates a long and boring three months

Then, Kennedy meets Carter Williams, the nineteen-year-old narcissist who lives in the house next to Layla's. He's tan, sarcastic, ridiculously good-looking, and he finds a hobby in pushing Kennedy's buttons. She looks forward to avoiding him for the duration of her stay and instead focusing on fitting in with the other teenagers in Ventura. But when Carter discovers that Kennedy can't surf, he takes it upon himself to teach her, whether she wants him to or not.

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!!

It Started in the Summer

20 parts Ongoing

This year Aleena and Levi Williams are staying at a friends' house in a quaint Massachusetts town for summer break. With their parents being divorced and never home the siblings are used to being alone. Instead of spending the summer in a house filled with memories of their parents the twins decide to use their friend's beach house for the summer. Along with four of the friend's cousins. But anything is better than staying in their hometown. Even if it means a full house. The twins make their way through new experiences, relationships, and make peace with their parents absence. Throughout the summer the twins meet a variety of new people- some of which they form life-changing relationships with. While some relationships are formed, others are broken. A few months later the twins are in college with a few of the people they met over the summer. Everyone has to figure out how to move on from hurt feelings, form new relationships, and have fun.
