Our survivor recalls his senior year in high school as a time when he got almost everything he thought he wanted, but can he keep it in spite of his own flaws? Regardless of his decisions, the status quo he has become comfortable with is going to end.

All he wanted to do was get away from his cheating wife. He got a new life and a new name but he was still alone.

When does trust become naivete? When does naivete become foolishness? Jack is a trusting man; he trusts Carmelita who cheats him... or does she?

When the unusual Willow Lang kindly offers to help her two male classmates study for their next big exam, she doesn't realize they'll be studying more than math during the tutoring session...or, I suppose, one could think of it as only going back to the basics of multiplication...

"Island Summer" is another summer idle. It is a bit longer and moves somewhat slowly. It is set in the early part of the 20th Century and is total 'Romantica'.

Isabella, a pretty Spanish young teen, had had a crush on Daniel who was a couple of years older, since her first day at her new school. Isabella was hoping that the school ski trip might give her the opportunity to get him to notice her. Daniel had already noticed her vivacious personality, pretty face, slim figure and developing curves, but thought she was too young for him. Could she convince him otherwise?
