In the tranquil waters of Hawai'i, Hokulani and Nikau wonder if it's possible for a song to go on forever. ***** For as long as Hokulani can remember, she's always felt like she's treading water. Everything she loves becomes a means to escape from what's happening around her or, worse, the unsteadiness of her mind. She even finds her passion for music slipping through her grasp, though she tries her best not to completely let that go. And even though the arrival of an up-and-coming musician from Aotearoa causes waves, she's unable to fully enjoy her life. Unable to release that breath she feels like she's been holding onto ever since her father passed away. When her family is hit with complicated news, the Kahananui woman must make difficult decisions for themselves, including one Hokulani isn't sure she fully understands. But even when their choices are made, they bring up memories they've all been trying their best to forget, forcing them to face the reality deep inside the family's hearts. Hokulani takes refuge in the comfort her shared feelings with Nikau bring, but just because she wants something, doesn't mean it's enough. She knows she has a lot to work through on her own, and with the understanding that his year on the island will eventually come to an end, the two of them spend endless nights wondering if they can somehow make a song go on forever. » featured on @wattpad @romance @ContemporaryLit and @Ambassadors « All rights reserved © Stephanie Midorii, smidorii

There are three general truths every Acebridge inhabitant knows by heart. First, if you're on a hunt for the greatest latte in North Carolina, Beans & Bagels just off Main Street is the place to go. Second, the color that paints the exterior and interior walls of the ice cream parlor by the beach is a deeply horrifying shade of blue. And last, but not least, Ace Easters and Acebridge Westers do not - and should not - mix. After all, the generations-long rivalry between Acebridge's two high schools is the most prominent and soul fueling tradition of the quaint coastal town. In other words, Avery Waters should absolutely not go around kissing Ethan Taylor.
