ENDLESS SUMMER Fic Masterlist
Sorted by ending; Vaanu/Endless (my mainstay)/Rourke, and listed chronologically.
Main pairing is Estela x fMC (Taylor) unless noted otherwise.
Enjoy!
‘From the Stars’ is my three-part take on the resolution of the Vaanu ending.
Five years have passed since the events that saw Taylor hurtled to another world in a heartfelt sacrifice for her friends; healing time and reuniting them with their families. But how much moving on has been done, and how long can Taylor carry on so far from home?

Aftershocks in the Night Set in the immediate aftermath of the events of Book 3; Taylor and Estela are kept awake at night by the dawning reality of the choices and revelations made in the final showdown with Rourke.
‘Taylor-made’ (F!MC and Diego friendship)A little heart-to-heart between two besties… some big revelations for Diego.
Fortress In the wake of the wider world’s destruction, grief has being hanging over The Celestial. Taylor needs to escape, to get out from under all the sadness, just for a while. Thankfully, she has Estela.
Kin (F!MC x Estela, Aleister and Estela sibling stuff) The world beyond La Huerta is gone, Taylor’s family are nothing but a fabricated daydream, and Estela’s only living relative is a walking reminder of her connection with the figure that tore her life apart. What do love and kinship mean in this burned and scarred world?
Balm Short fluffy Taystela thing. Just a pair of cute newlyweds having some pamper time at the end of the world.
Of Secrets and Stars Trapped at the end of the world, not another soul holds memories of Estela’s mother, Olivia Montoya, none except for Iris. The truth about Estela’s birth might just be out there… but will it heal her aching heart or only fuel her grief?
Who You Are Finding out you’re not the person you always thought you were is a crisis best rode out with a partner, or so Taylor and Estela would tell you.
Confession Time The truth of Taylor’s identity hit her like a train… and when you’re stuck on a small island, a secret that big can’t be kept forever.
Valentine’s Day Basically fluff. So. Much. Fluff. Just a great big chronicle of Taylor and Estela’s first Valentine’s Day together.

On To Something New Intent on building their new life on La Huerta after the world beyond was lost, the Catalysts pay a visit to Rourke’s MASADA complex to take advantage of all that has been left behind.
Scar A little short thing. Estela opens up to Taylor about the scar over her eye.
Unwind Letting her guard down doesn’t come easy to Estela; even with Rourke gone and no battles to be won, she has something she can’t bear to risk– Taylor. But Taylor may just be the key to Estela letting herself truly relax… and maybe even find the peace she’s always been missing.
“It’s his favourite movie…” Recalling a most intriguing creation of Rourke’s from the Endless’ memories, what kind of friend would Taylor be if she didn’t indulge Diego in some well-intentioned Freaky Friday shenanigans?
Kinda Like Dancing Just a short fluff piece! A bit of flirty sparring between lovers.
Feelin’ 22 It’s Estela’s birthday! I’m not about to let June go by without giving her a birthday party, am I?
It's All You (Michelle x Quinn) Coming into her own in this new life on La Huerta, Michelle is uncovering new parts of herself. Having walking through life on a neat pre-determined path, some of those parts of herself are not easy to come to terms with.
Like You Love Me (Quinn x Michelle) Clinging together at the end of the world, Michelle and Quinn’s friendship may just be blossoming into something more.
First and Only– A La Huerta Christmas Taylor had pledged to give her life for the saving of the world, and time with her friends in their La Huerta home is running out. It’s her first Christmas Eve, and if Vaanu’s prediction is to come to fruition… her last. It may be more than she and Estela can bear.
Endless Ending, multi-chapter: ‘Broken Chains’, with a couple of stand-alones interspersed.
