As of 5/8/24, initial chapters are NOW OUT with more to come every week!! Enjoy :) Four high school seniors embark on a Spring Break trip to the mountains of Colorado that goes anything but right. With both metaphorical and literal roadblocks abound, drama ensues, relationships are challenged, and an unexpected romance develops that threatens to shake up the status quo and change the group's dynamic forever. A coming-of-age story about friendship, love, loss and hope. This is a spinoff of my previous stories and is set in the same universe, but don't worry! It has intentionally been written to be fully understood and enjoyed independently. So if you stumble across this and haven't read my previous stories, no worries! If you HAVE read my previous stories, you'll just have more background information and will be able to appreciate little easter eggs :) Heads up if you decide to go back and read A Breath of Fresh Air or The Fox Squad: I now look back and cringe a bit, lol. I feel as though my writing has since SIGNIFICANTLY improved since I wrote those two stories. This story has a soundtrack! Throughout the chapters, you may see links to YouTube videos with songs. These are meant to correspond to the scene, similar to a movie or TV show. Here is the full playlist (not final and currently being trimmed down): https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5N4efTlLuXIDF499pnWRni?si=c89d5886c4834b0b CONTENT ADVISORY/TRIGGER NOTICE: Please be advised that this story is PG-13 and contains profanity, light alcohol and drug (vaping/weed) use, sexual themes, mild violence and crude humor. There is a scene containing what would be considered kidnapping. Characters talk about their deceased loved ones. Additionally, characters struggle with their mental health, including battling anxiety and depression. I aim to approach these topics with sensitivity and compassion. I believe this is everything, but please let me know if there are any other triggers I did not include.
