Summerreads Stories

She is the warmth he never wanted... and the only one he would ever burn for. Alara Volkov, daughter of Ava and Alex Volkov, is a sweet, sunshine girl who grew up sheltered by her mother's love and her father's protection. After finishing school, she's ready to explore the world through an internship. What she doesn't expect is to find herself staying in the same hotel as Renner Harper, the son of her mother's friend and the future heir of Harper security. Renner is there for work, but fate has other plans when he's tasked with protecting Alara. Confident he can keep things strictly professional, Renner never anticipated how hard it would be to resist her. This story is still on for editing so some things might be confusing. Hope you love it.

Every summer, the island of Ibiza fills with people looking to become someone else for a season. For Marco, a bartender at a cliff-top bar in Sant Josep, that is exactly the point. For four years the island has given him what he needed most: anonymity, routine, and the unspoken agreement that nobody asks questions. Then Isla Voss walks in. She is a wealthy Dutch regular who comes to Ibiza for the light, not the parties. Quietly watchful, self-contained, and carrying something she has been carrying for a long time. She orders without looking at the menu. She tips without looking at the amount. She comes back the next evening, and the one after that. What follows is a slow, charged summer of cliff-top evenings, hidden coves, and candlelit dinners in the ancient walled town. Two people who are drawn to each other in spite of themselves, circling something neither of them is quite ready to name. But Marco is keeping a secret. And the longer the summer runs, the more the secret costs him. My Summer in Ibiza is a slow-burn literary romance set against the heat and beauty of the Mediterranean. It is a novel about the person you were before, the person you became after, and whether love can survive the distance between the two.

The water glimmers unnaturally, shadows twist where they shouldn't, and whispers drift through the trees, calling names she thought she'd left behind. A year has passed since the Hollow first claimed Lucas, and the group thought they had escaped its grasp. But the Hollow is patient, feeding on memory and secrets, stretching its reach into the world they know. Reuniting with childhood friends Eli and Lucas, and alongside her twin sister Aria, Lila discovers that the Hollow is no longer confined beneath the lake. Dreams bleed into reality, symbols carved into trees pulse with hidden meaning, and Rowan appears-fading, warning them of dangers they cannot yet understand. As the group unravels clues about their missing uncle and a secret society that has long guarded the Hollow, Lila realizes the lake is more than a parallel world-it is a living entity, hungry for the town's past. When Aria is pulled into the Hollow during a confrontation with the entity, Lila must confront fears, memories, and the limits of her courage to save her sister before the Hollow consumes them all. The Hollow Above is a heart-pounding coming-of-age thriller blending supernatural terror, small-town secrets, and the bittersweet ache of first love. Perfect for fans of Stranger Things, Gravity Falls, and The Summer Below, it is a story about courage, sisterhood, and the shadows that linger in even the brightest memories.
