Ambrosia "Amber" Underwood is a seventeen-year-old high school junior with warped perceptions of the world. She has no friends, only acquaintances. No boyfriend, only a vague dating arrangement with a jock. A lover of routine and a hater of change, Amber spends her nights at the old lighthouse in her dull town to battle insomnia.

But when a teary-eyed Dylan Frost shows up at the lighthouse one Friday night, Amber's carefully constructed life is thrown into chaos. With his cappuccino hair and ocean eyes, Dylan starts to change everything, one song and one night at a time.

COMPLETED Living a life you didn't sign up for is hard, but doing so while feeling lost is harder. Dylan Amity is a musical prodigy. He could play a range of instruments, from the electric guitar to his violin. He lived, ate, and breathed music and was on track to becoming the orchestra's lead violinist. He was ready to become one of history's best composers. But he decided to place his dreams on hold for a while when he found out that his dad, the CEO of Amity Industry, was diagnosed with stage three lung cancer. His dad's death was expected, but the way he died wasn't. After the reading of the will, Dylan is faced with the harsh reality that you don't always get what you want. Following a short period of grief, Dylan is thrust into a world of business, responsibilities, and guardianship. He never wanted to be CEO, but now he has to because it's what his dad wanted. He also never expected to be Amber's, his thirteen-year-old sister's, legal guardian. Dylan has to put his dreams aside as he learns to navigate his new life without any experience of being a CEO or a guardian. Without a guide, Dylan is bound to feel lost, but maybe Rose could help. Maybe she could teach him how to deal with it. ••• Sneak Peek: "You know what, Amber? At least I'm fucking trying!" I gritted out, meeting her eyes that practically blazed with fury. "Yeah! Trying to act like papa. But guess what, Dylan, you never cared about me or what I did!" She screamed, taking steps back towards the stairs. "You never cared when I was a baby, you didn't care when I was a toddler, and guess what! You don't care now. You're only pretending to care to make yourself feel better. But you don't! No one fucking cares."

||COMPLETE|| Amber Blake is having dreams, and they just might be the key to saving her best friend, Mark. Unfortunately, she's too preoccupied pretending to hate the boy next door, Carter Hayes. Secretly hoping to rekindle what once was, Amber attempts to have the best of both worlds. But after a heated confrontation with Carter leads to a falling out with Mark, Amber is desperate for sleep in hopes that when she wakes, everything will just go back to normal. Come morning, and her world has changed completely. For one, she's twenty-eight years old...and married to Carter, of all people. With no memory of the last ten years, she's left spiraling in a life she's not sure she wants. Desperate for answers, Amber turns to the only person she trusts, but Mark is nowhere to be found-for sinister reasons. Haunted by memories of the boy she knew, Amber struggles to reconcile Carter with the man he is now, and time is running out. With her dreams hinting at a way to change deadly mistakes from the past, she'll have to work with the person who's hurt her most, or risk losing it all.
