When she's underwater all she needs to worry about is getting out before her lungs collapse...

When world-famous actress Emma Hunters travels overseas, she leaves her daughter Jaylee at home--but not without hiring a babysitter first to watch over her 16-year-old. Which, may I add, is less than eager to be supervised, especially over summer vacation. So what happens when you take an overachieving, self-confident teenage girl, a babysitter, giggly girlfriends, a whole bunch of drama, and put them all together? Well, read and find out :)

After pulling his little sister, Sam, from the bottom of a swimming pool at fourteen, Trevor becomes her shadow-watching, training, preparing for the moment he might have to save her again. And again. When a reckless night nearly costs Sam her life, Trevor's worst fear comes true: protecting her isn't enough. When Sam mysteriously vanishes, Trevor is forced to confront a truth he's been avoiding-he can't protect her if he loses himself in the process. As he escapes to a distant island searching for freedom and identity beyond survival, Trevor must reckon with what it really means to be a protector: obligation or choice. Meanwhile, Sam is fighting her own battle-one that will demand strength Trevor can't give her.

In the quiet echoes of her solitude, Avery embraces a ghostly love, realizing too late that some connections are destined to be both beautiful and achingly ephemeral. Elic, a ghost bound to the old manor, watches as his spectral connection with Avery unfolds, painting a tale of love and loss that transcends the boundaries of life and death.

"Then there was Rosemary Marshall. The golden girl of Outer Banks. Her residence was located on Figure Eight, but most of her days you could find her taming the waves on The Cut. She never really belonged to either side of the island, guess that's what everyone loved about her. She was passionate and fierce, always talking about things we didn't really understand. I promise you, you'll never catch her without her golden hoops. The girl loves those. I can safely say she wasn't like anyone I've ever met. So unpredictable, that with her you'll never know. She was one of the many enigmas of our beloved island." "𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇, two stubborn polar opposites with a trust fund, discover they don't hate each other after all."

Olympic

Casey wasn't supposed to meet him the way she did, certainly not while cleaning up a kid's vomit at the pool. But that was their first meet-cute, the moment that sparked the first of...well, everything. This is a story about those firsts and all the emotions that come with it - the nerves that keep you up at night wondering if they are even thinking about you, the obsession as you fall in love for the first time, the excitement when the scene you had replayed over and over again hoping would come true...actually does. And the story is told through the interchanging voices of three rising high school seniors who live in Piedmont, California. There is Matt - the new neighbor from New York City, Casey - the dancer and daughter to a cinematic industry titan, and Corey - the talented athlete who knows he's good. The three of them are brought together unexpectedly as they experience their first summer together. A note from the author: I loved watching rom-coms growing up, often coming up with my own take of my favorite scenes I would watch wondering if they could happen to me, only to find that a version of them absolutely did in what has been my own epic romance with who was my first, and now husband 18 years later. The Firsts is entirely fiction, but these characters feel real to me and the moments they experience for the first time feel real too, and I hope they feel real to you too. The full story - all 100,000 words - is written, but as I am in the process of self-editing, I wanted to share releasing a chapter every day with the hopes that you all can help me make this better as we experience another first of mine - the first of sharing this story - together.
