[BEING PUBLISHED -- sample and more info inside] One girl. One camp for delinquents. One hell of a summer. Falice Winters has always been the goody-two shoes. Her twin Arabelle . . . not so much. So what happens when their dad plans to ship Arabelle off to a camp to clean up her act? Well, naturally, Arabelle would find a way out. Her solution? Falice! It was a simple plan: Falice would pretend to be Arabelle and go to the delinquent camp while Arabelle got to have the time of her life with her boyfriend in London. Falice thought her summer was going to consist of sitting on the couch reading novels all day or hanging out with her friends. Never did it cross her mind that she would be pretending to be her sister in a camp of delinquents. But now she's stuck at a camp all summer where being rude is the new "in." And everything turns for the worse when someone figures out her secret. Will Falice survive the summer? Or will everyone learn that she's faking delinquency?

Four years ago, then seventeen-year-old Brye Sutton lived a privileged life. Her father was the mayor of Camden Hills, Connecticut and her mother was the overprotective parent, putting her family’s needs before her own, except when it came to Brye’s choice of friends or her decision to date the son of the town drunk. Then their relationship became volatile. On a cold night in late November, screams emanated from 2395 Sycamore Street, alerting neighbors of the slaughter taking place inside. Now Brye is twenty-one and walking the streets of Camden Hills once again. Even though she has no recollection of the events of that fateful night, she’s confident she is able to put the tragedy behind her, she takes her Aunt and Uncle’s advice and enrolls in classes at the local Community College. She has no illusions that most of the residents still believe she is the murderer, but remains undaunted by their snide comments and evil glares. That is until her dearly departed loved ones have her questioning whether or not she could have actually done the unthinkable and ruthlessly butchered them. As their visits become more frequent, Brye’s grip with reality is tested. Are the apparitions real, or are they just hallucinations conjured up by an unstable mind? As she questions her own part in the slayings, it dawns on her that the killer is still out there and could very well be coming after her. Innuendo and paranoia ensue as she becomes increasingly unsure who she can trust in the pursuit of finding the murderer.

Daughter4254 used to think life in a community where art, music and names are outlawed would suffocate her creative spirit. Now that she’s rotting in a prison cell, she’s not sure her dying mother made the right choice when she entrusted her with the secrets of rebellion. Prison has given her plenty of time to relive every mistake and lose all hope. Her next stop is the MindWipe. Then she meets Thomas, a fellow inmate, who tells her stories of the mythical mountain colonies where people have names and the arts thrive. Together they plot an escape, knowing if they fail, they will die. Or worse, their consciousness will be taken by the MindWipe, leaving their bodies free for the government to use. When nothing goes as planned, Daughter4254 must choose between using her mother's secret to better the world she hates, or following Thomas to the quiet life of freedom she has always craved.

After not seeing each other for nearly eight years, Justin and Laila are suddenly forced to spend the entire summer together. Now if that's not bad enough, Justin and Laila couldn't be more opposite from each other. At first it's plainly clear to everyone that they're just not going to get along at all. But the more Justin and Laila actually get to know each other - and when they aren't fighting over something stupid - the two slowly realize that maybe there are things in life they'll need each other to figure out. If Justin is arrogant, snarky, and just a bit too handsome for his own good, then Laila may just end up going insane. And if Laila's clever, quick-witted, and beyond pretty, then God help Justin. So the same thought on both of their minds? Is this going to be the summer of a life time or what?
