California Stories

(Previously known as The Lost) Betrayal is nothing new to the Łabanowski siblings. Neither is abandonment. So when the eldest two disappear on the triplets' tenth birthday, it really shouldn't take them by surprise. Five years later: the remaining eight are all grown up and trying to move on with their lives when, suddenly, it is announced that the family will be reuniting. No one will be welcoming the brothers home with open arms, that's for sure, but when threats become reality and lives are at stake, they will be forced to put aside their differences once and for all.

Addison Maeve Swan or Addy as she's known by most who know her has a secret that she's been hiding for months. Her older sister, Bella, has been physically and emotionally mistreating her since shortly after she moved to Forks to live with Addison and their father, Charlie, following her mother's recent remarriage. Addison has been trying to stay strong throughout Bella's cruel treatment towards her but she's reaching her breaking point. It also doesn't help that she recently discovered that Charlie Swan isn't actually her biological father. The only clue to her father's real identity that she is able to get from her mother Renée is the name of a small town: Charming, California. What happens when Addison ends up deciding to run away from Forks and head to Charming? What happens when she finds not only her biological dad but also a new found family that treats her so much better than the family she thought was hers for nearly her entire life? *READ TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS*

"He definitely wants to sleep with you," he taunts. "Excuse me?" I look at him weirdly, "What are you even talking about." "The way he touched your arm. That's what people do when they wanna fuck someone." He looks down at his paper and continues to sketch his patterns. I get an idea and scoot my chair closer to his. I lean forward and bring my lips up to his ear, very gently. "Well, that's what you do." He snaps his head towards me like he knows what I'm going to say next. "Do you wanna fuck me?" I whisper, making sure to look at him in awe. I hope it has an even better effect since our faces are closer. He opens his mouth to say something but hesitates. His eyes are everywhere but mine. When he finally catches my stare, he pushes my chair back to where it was before with his foot. "You are such a smart-ass. Would it hurt to swallow your ego for two seconds? Not everything's about you," he argues. "Maybe. I mean- I've swallowed worse," I shrug with a petty smile. *** Lavender Quinn has always struggled with her mental health but somehow managed to always stay at the top of her class... until her senior year.

Daisy Henderson never expected to see Hawkins again. After one too many parties, too many broken promises, and a reputation that followed her across California, her father has finally had enough. Sent back to Hawkins in a last-ditch effort to straighten out her life, Daisy finds herself trapped in the town she spent years trying to escape. But Hawkins isn't the same place she left behind. A fiery redhead named Max Mayfield and her dangerously unpredictable stepbrother, Billy Hargrove, have just rolled into town, turning heads and stirring up trouble wherever they go. As strange events begin unfolding once again, it becomes clear that Hawkins is about to change forever. For Daisy, though, the biggest complication isn't the new arrivals or the secrets lurking beneath the town. It's Steve Harrington. Before California. Before the parties. Before everything fell apart. There was Steve. And despite the years, the distance, and the reasons they swore they'd stay away from each other, some flames never really go out. As old feelings resurface and new dangers emerge, Daisy must decide whether Hawkins is the place that will finally save her-or destroy her. Because in Hawkins, secrets never stay buried for long.

A Spa guest is dead After the death of her father, PI Kerry Ryan, a former Bronx cop, tough and smart, investigates the mysterious demise of Angela Weston, a spa guest. She's sent undercover to the world-class resort, precariously situated on the edge of the Santa Barbara Mountains. After she arrives at the luxury retreat, the body count rises faster than the time it takes for Botox to freeze a wrinkle. Kerry encounters the Spa's eccentric, feuding owners, its hostile, shoe-obsessed, panty-stealing staff, and a handsome attorney who shows her the natural wonders of the coast. Her boss connects her with his helpful but mysterious contact. Maybe he's just a tech-savvy surfer, but he acts like a spy with mad paramilitary skills. The elusive clues left by Angela Weston and the Spa's suspicious staff don't escape Kerry's keen observations any more than chocolate mousse on a dieter's hips. Kerry has issues, too. She talks to her deceased father and never gets a second date because she can't turn off the interrogation button. In the land of sunshine and auras, Kerry escapes an explosion, a landslide, and outsmarts an assassin. Everybody looks guilty. Armed with her iron will and questioning mind, Kerry must navigate a web of secrets, lies, and dangerous betrayals to uncover the truth of the Spa's connection to the murders. With every new victim, the clock is ticking-and she's the next target. Themes: Courage, Romance, Greed, and Revenge

When they were twelve, Michael built a tree house-a quiet sanctuary where he could escape the world. Then came Elise. What started with an accidental meeting soon turned the little tree house into their haven place and made a promise that would change everything. Whoever got married first gets the tree house. It was a ridiculous promise. A childish one. Years later, Michael is chasing the biggest dream of his life, building a career that leaves little room for anything permanent, except a long list of women who never seem to stay. Elise, on the other hand, is ready to settle down. She's dating a man who's only one ring away from making the promise come true. What begins as a harmless competition, slowly unravels years of unspoken feelings, almost-confessions, and the terrifying realization that maybe the person they've been searching for has been standing beside them all along. Because sometimes, your one true love isn't about finding someone new. It's about finally seeing the one who's been there since the beginning.

Or at least that's what Emma thought up until meeting Bobby-a boy she never expected to meet, let alone fall for. But you know what they say-the heart wants what it wants, and sometimes that involves challenging everything you thought you knew about the world, especially when Emma believes that her world should be golden. She's got goals-Grammy winning kind of goals, that don't involve the kind of complications Bobby brings. And falling for Bobby was never part of the plan. Emma's weekends at her cousins' neighborhood was supposed to be carefree and simple. Not lying to sneak off elsewhere. What starts as something unexpected quickly becomes something she can't ignore... even when the secret slips. Because when feelings get involved, so do opinions, expectations, and the people who aren't afraid to make theirs known. Suddenly, growing up isn't as simple as it seems... especially when you're fifteen. « 𝑰 𝒔𝒏𝒖𝒄𝒌 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒈𝒉 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒈𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝒈𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝒏𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒔𝒖𝒎𝒎𝒆𝒓 𝒋𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒔𝒆𝒂𝒍 𝒎𝒚 𝒇𝒂𝒕𝒆.
