The best and worst events of Mace's life occurred in a summer long since passed. She was but a sixteen-years-old. Just a child, really. But that summer Mace learned more than any adult could learn in their entire life.
Even now, years later, Mace still reminds herself, "Wisdom breeds from one of three things: Tragedy, Love, or Time." She only had to suffer from two of the three that summer: Love and Tragedy. And both came in the form of Blake Philk.

hexes for exes
EVERY SUMMER, four families make their yearly exodus to the British seaside town of Briarville. For Livia Wong, the trip had been tradition ever since she could remember. Summer was always spent alongside the pristine beaches with the dreamy-hued sunsets. The trip is awaited with anticipation, not fear. Until this year. Livia didn't leave Briarville last year on good terms. It wasn't all her fault, of course not, but she was partially to blame. Being no longer on talking terms with your two closest friends is one thing. Having them as your neighbours for the entire rest of the summer, while your parents and other friends have no idea something is wrong? The plan was simple: Livia was eighteen, about to head to university. If she made it through this summer, she could leave Briarville in the distant past and never have to think about it again. But it was going to be okay. She might not be on talking terms with the Calvert-Egerton twins anymore, and she might have always been on horrible terms with Sarah Hepburn, but she still had Brie and Lila. And her little sister, Pamela. Still, eighteen years of friendship was never something that would simply go down the drain. Livia had some work to do if she wanted to make it out this summer unscathed. Her heart had been broken once, she was not going to let it happen again.

After my escape, and yet another but brutal last year at the same high school, my school sent me their condolences and made sure to inform my future college of my past.

Once I got my new identity, I tried to start anew. Moving me to a new place was the best thing the police and Dr Matthews allowed me to do, but it still didn't stop this nudging feeling that kept coming over me. I don't know why, but for some reason, I could tell that my kidnapper (Mr Blue) was going to come back for me. --- On the two year anniversary since my abduction, the past comes back to haunt me. The only thing that's changed is that I'm not the only one on his Hit List. My friends are too. I was finally happy after what happened to me during my junior year of high school.

Not Allowed to Touch
Actually, Cade hadn't planned to fall in love. He'd planned to mess about at sea for three days-away from father's speeches about family duty, from that suffocating feeling that his life was scheduled with society evenings and a future marriage to a suitable person. Take along a couple of Brazilian beauties (a tried and tested method), find a quiet bay, and get drunk on expensive rum. Elementary. No one had warned the heir to the Blakemore empire that she would be on the yacht. Skyler Rey-a captain with the temperament of a northern storm and the gaze of someone who'd seen how fates break. Who says "Mr. Blakemore" as if it were a diagnosis.Complete
