Endless Summer Days: Kismet Bay, #5

By Dawn Brower

Welcome to Kismet Bay where magic and fate are a way of life...

Caprecia Strange acts as if she wants to find love, but in reality, she's given up on actually having in her life. The truth is someone already owns her heart. If he'd wanted to claim her he'd had the chance and threw it away for the lure of fame and fortune.

Gawain Daly found success as an actor but his heart has never been truly in it. He lost all chance at love when he left Kismet Bay. His best friend baited him to stand up in a wedding and now he has to return home and face the mistakes of his past. Sometimes magic isn't enough to erase mistakes and fate might have a different plan altogether...

Chapter 1

The heat of summer had rolled in early and settled into Kismet Bay for the upcoming months. Caprecia Strange hated really hot days, but she loved basking in the sunlight. She realized those two things could be at odds with themselves, but she’d always had a contrary nature. But then lately she’d been a veritable grouch. She hadn’t had much to be particularly happy about. Misery had settled in and kept her company on the regular.

She sighed. Her current state of mind didn’t do much for her cousin’s upcoming wedding. Holly had fallen in love with her fiancé, Nicholas Bell at Christmas and six months later they were ready to say their vows. She couldn’t imagine having such a whirlwind romance.

It wasn’t as if she’d never been in love. She had. Still was… The problem was the guy she’d fallen head over heels for hadn’t wanted to stick around long enough to see if they had something real. He’d wanted to take his chances in the world outside of Kismet Bay. Where no one knew him and he had the opportunity to seek fame and fortune.

So far every one of his dreams had come true…

Caprecia wished she could hate him, but she couldn’t. He’d done what he needed to do to find a measure of success. It sucked that it wasn’t with her, but she didn’t find fault with him because he found a life outside of Kismet Bay. Sometimes she wished she could too. Her family lived in the little coastal village and she owned a business with her sister Leilia. They ran Grape Flavors Winery and a vineyard on the outskirts of town. She was happy. Mostly.

She wished she could find a way to brush away the sadness that permeated her entire being. It had settled in when she realized that she’d have to come face to face with
