By M.B. Feeney
Genre: YA/NA Romance
Born and bred in
the UK, Holly is getting the chance of a lifetime—six weeks abroad. The Kings,
a host family in the US, have invited her to stay with them and get a chance to
experience life as an American. When she discovers that the King family
includes two teenage boys, will she be glad she came or ready to hightail it
back across the pond?
Aiden King's
heart has been broken, and he's taking his anger out on his brother, Tyler.
Can he, with the
help of his High School Guidance Counsellor, work through his problems.
Tyler King has
moved away from his family in order to help himself move on from the mistakes
he made in High School.
A summer romance
could lead to so much more, it could lead to him finally surrendering to his
repentance for his past actions.
Ellie King has a
plan. Do well in her Senior Year at High School before going to study in
London, England. That’s all she wants in her immediate future.
Writing to John
Davids not only cements her desire to study in the UK, but gives her more if a
reason to leave her family in the US.
From Dear Diary

Dear
Diary,
God,
you'd think that after all this time, I'd have a much cooler greeting than
that!
I just
wanted to say that I hate airports. Nothing to do, other than sit around,
waiting... waiting... oh, and more waiting. What am I waiting around in the
airport for? So nice of you to ask. I'm finally off to America (I'm doing a
silent happy dance in my seat!) for six weeks. I never thought that my college
would have arranged something like this to give a bunch of seventeen and
eighteen year olds "life experience". I mean, it's not even a
'proper' exchange programme. No-one's off to the U.K. to stay in my house in
return. I just get to go and stay with a family I have never met before. Oh
crap, now I'm getting nervous.
Oh well,
it's too late, flight's being called.
Holly x
M. B. Feeney is
an army brat who finally settled down in Birmingham, UK with her other half,
two kids and a dog. She often procrastinates by listening to music of all
genres and trying to get ‘just one more paragraph’ written on whichever WIP is
open; she is also a serious doodler and chocoholic. Writing has been her one
true love ever since she could spell, and publishing is the final culmination
of her hard work and ambition.
Her publishing
career began with two novellas, and she currently has multiple projects under
way, in the hopes that her portfolio of what have been described as “everyday
love stories for everyday people” will continue to grow. Always having
something on the go can often lead to block which eventually gets dissolved by
good music and an even better book.
Her main reason
for writing is to not only give her readers enjoyment, but also to create a
story and characters that stay with readers long after the book is finished,
and possibly make someone stop and think “what if . . . ”
