A story about two complicated people, finding complicated love, with a complicated sense of knowing love is just a ticking time bomb. This summer gives both of them a hard question to swallow...
Is love meant to be or is it just one big waiting game?
Meet Katrina Hawthorne. A hardworking teen who has pretty much given up trying to make a social life for herself. She instead spends her summer break going into senior year, at her aunt's house on a beautiful lakeside. She works most days, and if she's not doing that she's texting her best friend Cassie. She accepts that this summer will be dull, but little does she know love creeps up on her a bit unexpectedly to say the least.
But love comes with a price-and this price includes Nathan Court, a blonde maniacal bitch, a scandalous family affair, a tempting sexy boss, and the possibility that the term summer fling could be quite real.

Before you
She's always been a hopeless romantic, even though love has never seemed to work in her favor. Being one of the most popular girls in school-a talented artist, a writer, and a volleyball champion-she was confident, yet still doubted anyone would truly see her beyond her looks. That is, until Nate entered the picture. Nate, the arrogant, confident final-year student, seemed to have every girl wrapped around his finger. And yet, for some reason, he set his sights on her. A chance encounter turned into bold flirtation, and now she finds herself caught between intrigue and caution. Should she give him a chance? Or is he just another heartbreaker playing a game? Between school, deep talks with her effortlessly elegant best friend Zoe, and the looming senior party she almost forgot about, things are getting interesting. And as much as she tries to play it cool, she can't ignore one undeniable fact-Nate is getting under her skin.

Nathan looks away from my eyes, inhaling. "Maybe the little things that you consider your weakness are actually the things that people treasure most about you.
