This just in, fair readers! Chic and stunning, that gorgeous new woman about town is none other than our very own little Ellie—now Elle—Owens. She’s a far cry from the frumpy, bookish student we used to know, but then, living in Italy will do that to a girl! Still, this blogger can’t forget the infamous video that caused her to leave!
Apparently Miss Elle has been spotted with yummy contractor Cam Dumont...but we thought her heart belonged to his little brother. Are Cam and Elle a new couple? They were seen cooling their passions in the bay...in April! If this is love, let’s hope she’s swimming with the right brother. The Bayside Blogger will keep you posted. :)
“Ellie? Ellie Owens?” he asked.
“I just go by Elle now, but yes. Nice to see you.”
Nice, but a total shock. Racking her brain, she remembered the last time she’d seen him—graduation. At twenty-two, Cam had not only been the older brother of the love of her life but he’d already been to college and had returned with a full beard.
The truth was that Cameron Dumont had always sort of intimidated her. Hell, he’d intimidated the whole town. He was a loner, always off in some corner. Not brooding, but watching, observing, with a self-assured confidence that no other adolescent possessed. With long hair and dark looks, he’d always seemed…dangerous, she decided. He was full of muscles and well over six feet tall.
Looking at him now, it was evident that he was still built and dangerous-looking, if not cleaned up a bit from ten years ago. Elle felt a little flutter of some kind of awareness as she took in his now beardless, square jawline, broad shoulders and arms rippling with muscles.
“Welcome home, Elle,” he said. “You look…great.”

Good morning, avid readers! Who’s ready to be saved by the blog? Boy, do I have some juicy gossip that will help you escape the day-to-day life of our very small town.
Rumor has it one of Bayside’s most infamous residents is returning today after a ten-year absence. You may remember this gal as lover of all things Jasper Dumont. Who can forget the time she declared her love for him by, ahem, making that little video? Haven’t seen it? I’m sure someone saved a copy. *Smirk*
Personally, I’m thrilled that she’s back. So with that, let me, your fabulous Bayside Blogger, be the first to say... Welcome back to Bayside, Ellie Owens.
Elle stepped off the airport tram, thanked the driver and retrieved her luggage. Inhaling a deep whiff of air, she caught the familiar salty scent she associated with home.
As the tram drove away, she stood on the stone sidewalk in the center of town, taking a moment to reacquaint herself with Bayside, Virginia. Still pleasant to look at with its town square full of eclectic shop fronts and its
