Taming Chloe Summers

My past is long gone.
Until he says my name.

I planned to survive Camp Clover with three simple rules:
1. Keep my head down.
2. Finish my stupid community-service hours.
3. Get on a plane to Europe before August kills me.

Easy. Until Justin Andrews walks into the counselors’ meeting like a sun-kissed disaster from my past.
He’s taller now than he was in high school, steadier, annoyingly confident, and still way too good at reading me. I hate that he remembers every version of the girl I used to be — the reckless one, the heartbroken one, the one who made the wrong choice on the night everything went sideways.

He wasn’t supposed to be here. And definitely not as my boss.
But summer camp has a twisted sense of humor. Between midnight swims, impossible teenagers, and the way Justin keeps pushing against the walls I’ve built, something dangerous is happening. The past is waking up.
One spark, one glance, one stupid moment of honesty… and suddenly this summer feels far too close to the one that wrecked us before.

But I can’t afford to care again.
Not when the clock is ticking.
Not when I have a plane ticket waiting.
Not when falling for him a second time feels like the most dangerous mistake of all.

Because this time, if things go wrong…I won’t just lose him.
I’ll lose the life I’m supposed to choose instead.
