Summer of Deception

Abigail Strauss has always felt most alive near the ocean. Growing up in the sun-soaked beach town of Laguna Beach, Abby spent her days surfing, chasing sunsets, and living for adventure. But when college opens the door to a summer abroad in the South of France, her world changes in ways she never imagined. What begins as a dream quickly turns intoxicating - glamorous parties along the Riviera, hidden beaches, late nights in coastal cafés, and a new circle of magnetic friends. There's Josie, the beautiful socialite with famous parents and secrets of her own; Michel, the charming restaurant owner who seems to know everyone; and Luke and Pierre, irresistible soccer stars whose carefree lives may not be as perfect as they seem. Then Abby meets Izzy - a mysterious and internationally famous musician whose attention pulls her into a world of wealth, obsession, and hidden danger. But beneath the beauty of the Mediterranean lies something darker. Strange encounters, whispered warnings, and dangerous secrets begin to surface, and Abby realizes that not everyone around her can be trusted. >
