EXTENDED SUMMARY.

Helena Perez. That girl was going places, regardless of what anyone thought. Coming from an immigrant family fleeing from their oppressive home, to finding solace on the sandy beaches and building a life there. They went from nothing but beggars to owning the number one restaurant on the island. Because of this, Helena was apart of the Kooks. She was elegant, beautiful, and dressed in the best sundresses anyone had ever seen. While her mother tended the restaurant, her father preached down at the church, and she sang in choir.

          Listening to her sing was like basking out in the sun on a good day, a cold drink next to you, and the breeze tickling your skin. It was like diving into cold waters after being burnt to a crisp. It was like how silk feels on smooth skin, how caramel melts in your mouth, how sweet nothings sound in your ears, how your eyes focus on the beauties of the world. She was talented, she was driven, and she was determined to make a name for herself. To sing for people around the globe, travel, and see new things. To meet new people and extend her legacy to those who just might understand what it felt like to be stuck in a dark place with no hope for a light.

JJ Maybank. He was a ruffian, a hoodlum, a bad influence. He knew that he was stuck in the OBX with no hope in hell of getting out. Even if he had the chance, he wasn't sure he'd take it. Ever so loyal, JJ is, to those who can break past his extended walls and get to know his true charming self. He couldn't leave his friends behind, or the legacy he could make for himself. He was a Pogue, one of the dirty ones if you asked the Kooks on the island. He was a no good, annoying pest that buzzed in their ears, set on getting them riled up just to kiss their fists with that signature smirk of his.

          JJ wasn't very open about the romance of his life. Sure, he messed around with a few Kooks looking to rebel against Daddy, and the occasional Touron that came looking for a good time. He was never one to hog the pleasures of life and himself, with his sandy blond hair that never seemed to sit right, his sapphire eyes, and his paw-like hands. He knew he was a catch, regardless of what nonsense people spewed about him. But there was only one person who truly caught his eye. Helena Perez was a world wonder for the boy. From her dark ringlets, her round lips that were always pulled in that innocent smile, and her sun kissed skin that glistened beneath the star in the sky. JJ was whipped.

Four Hundred Million Dollars. It was a treasure, alright, and a nice one too. It could fund Pope's college, allow Kiara to maybe save the sea turtles, JJ could buy a nice boat he could live on, and John B... he would finally finish what his father started. What could Helena do with that money, you may ask. Nothing. Because she had already found her treasure in a pool of teal eyes and silver stars.

RUMI'S NOTES.
i have a gif set for this book that
i worked so hard on, so if you write
this story pls ask for it. thanks <3

this is a pretty fast paced romance.
their teenagers, and their love seems
forbidden. i mean, it only makes sense.

when writing this, i always pictured her
closest to topper & kelce. and rafe definitely
has a huge crush on her. but i think she's
closest to kelce because her mom thinks
he's too whitewashed and wants hels
to help him get back to his roots. you feel?
