“Silent Kat” is ignored by her classmates and invisible in her daily life. While she doesn’t love being forgotten all the time, it’s occasionally convenient – until she meets the one man who won’t allow her to hide. The uncompromising photographer passing a summer on San Juan Island has no intention of dating a high school girl, but Katelina can’t ignore their inexplicable connection. He has no intention of corrupting her, either. Yet the quest to remain in his viewfinder sets her on an unexpectedly adult path … And when the truth is revealed about this summer, everything will change—even their pasts… This is the third story set around the San Juan Island High School 5-year reunion. SAN JUAN ISLAND STORIES are light, sweet romances perfect for a Pacific Northwest summer day and set around the crisp green San Juan Islands in Northwestern Washington. Refreshing as an iced vanilla latte and local as a salad with Ranch dressing and sesame seeds, these stories capture the essence that every journey—no matter how far—is truly about finding a way back home. They are clean, lunch-sized short stories meant to be enjoyed on a quick break so that you can return refreshed and revitalized for the second half of your day!
