When that special guy steals your young heart by his innocent yet heroic act of kindness.

They Call It Heart: Chapter 2, Dream of You. WHAT’S INSIDE SNEAK PEEK.

"Your mom said everyone went to the park for New Sable Days. How come you didn't go with them?"

I slid my foot out of the fuzzy blue slipper and showed Talan my bruised pinky toe, taped to the other toe for support. "I dropped a can of tomato juice on it. It's not broken, but it hurts when I walk."

"Ouch. I stubbed my big toe once, and my toenail turned black and fell off."

"Gross." He chuckled and stood up to leave. "All right. I'm gonna go find them ... They'll set off fireworks later. Are you sure you can't go? We can walk slow."

My insides expanded with happiness, like helium in a balloon. "It doesn't hurt much, and if I keep the slippers on, it should be all right. Let me tell Mom."

I hid the wincing until we were halfway to the park, and the pain became too much to fake it anymore. I stopped walking.

"How are you doing?" he asked, his brows scrunching in concern.

My foot was throbbing. "I just need to take a break."

We stood at the crosswalk briefly, then he crouched down. "Hop on. I'll carry you."

I grinned with a warm face, a little laugh spilling out as I shook my head.

"Come on. I asked you to come, so let me help you."

I shrugged, then hopped on his back. He gave me a piggyback ride the rest of the way, and I thought I might die of excitement before we reached the park.

If your best friend warns you away from your dream girl because she’s his sister, do you still go for her when the opportunity comes?

Episode 3, Long as I Can See the Light, WHAT’S INSIDE SNEAK PEEK.

I hesitate, turning around slowly because while Kinsley invites me to the movies with her and Amalia, the voice in my head says something else.

Do you want to go out with Amalia?

It's ridiculous how much I want to go out with Amalia.

Well, here is your chance.

Just a flip of Amalia's hair, a friendly little smile, or an innocent tilt of her head produces feelings in me I've ignored for too long. The little crush I developed on her magnified tenfold ever since the day that she slipped off the porch, and it's safe to say ... I have it bad. But because she's my best friend's sister, she's off-limits. Jaxon lured me into that agreement long ago.

Kinsley waves her hand at my face. "Hello! Do you, Talan?"

New Chapter Update. Chapter 22, Don’t Do Me Like That, SNEAK PEEK.

As I push open the locker room door, I feel a weird sensation of—I don't know what—I just walked in on.

Amalia is blushing. I attempt eye contact, but she lowers her eyelids, drops her head, and dashes out the door.

"What happened?" I ask, referring to her.

Kade's glossy eyes shift my attention, and witnessing his transition from a blank stare to intense emotional pain cuts my heart. "Kade? Are you okay, brother?"

Why does being in love for the first time hurt so much, and how does everything go so wrong in the midst of everything going so right?

They Call It Heart: Chapter 25 WHAT’S INSIDE SNEAK PEEK.

I didn't want to share my insecurities, but since he asked, I told him."This long-distance stuff. It will work, won't it?"

"You think it won't?" he asked, with worry of his own.

"No. I think it will. It's just that ... Well, it didn't work for Jaxon and Mara." And they were in love, I opted not to add.

A silent moment passed. "Well, we're not Jaxon and Mara. I want it to work. And you want it to work. So, we'll make sure it does. Because, Ama, I lo..."

A giant smile illuminated my face as pure happiness consumed me.

"I, uh ... really wish you were standing in front of me, I uh..."

Love you! He didn't say the words, but I heard them anyway.

"Need to see you for this. I miss you, Ama, and can't wait to see you again."

These young characters are painfully human. I’d love for you to give this story and their journey a try.

Story Update!!

Chapter 29, It’s Not Over, What’s Inside Sneak Peek 🫣

I made out with her...I made out with her...I made out with her...

The words circled through my mind on a loop. Shocked, I slipped into a silent stupor as Kade and I made our way to the dining hall.

"... after the dance. Because of some guy, she wanted it between us, so I didn't tell anyone till now." Kade said. "It's not the only time, either. We were literally in a lip lock when I regained my senses inside the locker room—the other secret I couldn't tell—but the kiss woke me from my shock, big time."

Amalia flat-out lied to my face, and I wanted to wipe the bragging grin off Kade's mouth with my fist.

After making a terrible relationship mistake, how do you attempt to repair it?

Chapter 30, Leaving My Love Behind, What’s inside Sneak Peek.

An enraged grimace burst onto her face. "Don't you dare do that to me, Talan Swifthawk!" She called me by full name, her voice trembling with anger. "Don't give me some absurd guy line to confuse me. I'm not a freaking idiot. It's ridiculous, and it's insulting!"

My body tightens with surprise at how infuriated I made her, but as hostile as she sounds, it doesn't mask the wounded note weaved in her tone. I glance over her head to gather my thoughts on doing this without mentioning Kade. "I know it sounds ridiculous, Ama, and maybe it makes no sense to you, but if you'll just listen..."

What should a girl do when someone tries to move in on her guy even though he technically isn’t hers any more?

Chapter 31, This Love, What’s inside Sneak Peek. 🫣

Then Piper, a classmate of mine and part of Everleigh's entourage tonight, moves into position. She takes a big step backward. The hard bump she flings on purpose sends Everleigh colliding into Talan. It's a well-executed scheme.

Oh, god.

Everleigh latches on to Talan, attempting not to fall, but it is probably a disguise to cop a feel and end up in his arms. Talan staggers, his hand on her back, taking her with him a few paces before catching himself upright. I can't see their expressions from my position, but I can see his hands gripping her elbows. The positions of their heads make it seem like they're staring into one another's eyes. Everleigh is exquisite.

I scowl, my anger coiling beneath my skin like a rattlesnake preparing to strike Miss. Wannabe Center of Attention. "I'm going over there."

Just when it seems you’re out of the woods, there is always another curve ball.

Chapter 33 Sneak Peek!

"It's just that ... Well, I won't be here for the rest of the summer, and I thought I better tell you now."

Shocked, my mouth falls open as Talan's words register. "You're going back to San Diego?" It's the obvious conclusion.

First dates are as nerve racking as they are exciting…

Chapter 35, When You Were Young, WHAT’S INSiDE SNEAK PEEK.

With hair, makeup, and sandals all set after a gazillion touch-ups and adjustments, I stare in the mirror, suddenly feeling like I'm showing so much skin. The entire ensemble is still overdoing it.

I'm outside my comfort zone for sure; the anxiety I experience over simply calling this an actual date is bizarre.

This is your fault for not knowing how to date, weirdo.

I'm by the closet in a flash, speed flipping through the rack, when Talan's car pulls up, signaling time's up.

Everyone has asked themselves at some point: Is this my insecurity or my intuition?

Episode 39, WHAT’S INSIDE SNEAK PEEK 🫣

"That's fine with me, Talan." I'm lying. "I mean ... You could have told me you were going out with a friend who was a girl. You didn't have to hide it."

"I wasn't trying to hide it. I didn't know she was the one who would pick me up."

I grip my desk to ground myself as my eyebrow arches. "Well, is Sophia the one who invited you?"

A strange tension lingers in Talan's silence, answering for him and flooding me with dread.

"Slow down a minute, Talan," Amalia said, angry. "I got jealous and blew everything out of proportion the other night. But you're blowing everything out of proportion today. We had a fight, so what? Couples have them all the time."

I rolled my eyes and spit out, "Oh, so we're a couple now."

"Stop it, Talan!"

"Here, let me help you with that," a poised male voice said. A body kneeled beside me, reaching steady hands into the pile of plastic I fumbled through, which helped me control my embarrassed self. When I lifted my eyes, a captivating gaze of stormy grey met them. The kind, handsome stranger's half-smile sent a nervous flutter through my tummy.
