Claire Thomas hates Valentine’s Day, and it’s not because she’s never had a boyfriend. Every year, the Slinger High student council runs a carnation sale to raise money for the spring dance. Students can order the flowers—red for love, pink for friendship, and white for secret admiration—and have them delivered to other students during 8th period on February 14th. The sale is a great fundraiser, but it’s also one huge popularity contest; whoever receives the most white carnations is deemed the hottest girl in school. Claire knows better than to hope for a flower. The only girls who get them are the gorgeous ones, like queen bee Nora and her best friend Phoebe. Even though Claire openly criticizes the carnation sale to her best friend and longtime crush Max, she is secretly hoping that he will send her one anyways. She wants to admit how she really feels, but Max would never go for a girl like her—a goody two-shoes who never misses a homework assignment and tutors struggling math students on the weekend. It’s better off that she keep her mouth shut and preserve their friendship. When Valentine’s Day arrives, Claire is shocked to find that someone has sent her not one, but a dozen white carnations. It’s not enough to win the contest—Nora received thirty-five—but Claire is still giddy. Then Max asks her to be his date to a party on Saturday, so it has to be him who sent her the flowers. But everything isn’t as it seems, and Claire starts to realize that she can either be left heartbroken or find the confidence to go after what she truly wants.

Reece Bremer goes through life with a scowl and cold personality. Jessica Andrews goes through life with a glowing smile and positive outlook. Reece looks at life with dull, judgmental eyes that make him hate the world and the people living in it. Jessica, well... She looks at life through a camera. Literally. They're polar opposites, and that's what sparks Reece's immediate hate for Jessica the moment they meet. All he sees is a girl with the best life, put in the category of those who get everything handed to them on a silver platter. But who says Jessica's life is like that? Just like a photograph, there's more to the story than what you see. Stumbling across one of Jessica's hidden portfolio might reveal that her happiness isn't all that true. Behind that smile and each picture she takes, holds a thousand words of a very big secret - one that Reece is determined to find out. And who knows? It just might change everything between them. cover by dysanic || 2015 watty's winner for talk of the town ||

Sam is the most promising swordsman among this year’s crop of Paladin trainees...and knows it. Brash, cocky, and unbeatable with a sword (well, almost), Sam is the kingdom of Thule’s best hope against the violence wrought by demons. The only problem is that Sam is really Lady Samantha, daughter of the seventeenth Duke of Haywood, and if her father has his way, she’ll be marrying a Paladin, not becoming one. But Sam has never held much interest in playing damsel-in-distress, and so she rescues herself from a lifetime of boredom and matrimonial drudgery. Pity that Tristan Lyons, the Paladin assigned to train her, is none other than the hero of her childhood. He hasn’t recognized her as Lady Samantha--yet-- but if he does, he’ll take away her sword and send her packing. Sam is not the only trainee hiding secrets: Braeden is a half-demon with a dark past that might be unforgivable. Sam, Braeden and Tristan set out for the western coast, charged with rooting out an infestation of demons that has made the West unlivable. As they travel, they uncover a deep-seated corruption of power that threatens to derail everything they stand for. Rebellion stirs, led by a rival faction of warriors who tempt Sam to join them with an irresistible offer. A war between men is coming, and Sam must pick a side. Will saving the kingdom cost her life -- or just her heart? Reminiscent of Mulan, but with a medieval fantasy twist, Paladin is a tale of adventure, action, and romance.

The last thing on this Godforsaken planet he wants to do is acquaint himself with her. While Charlotte is kind and caring, he's rude and vulgar, while she's friendly and innocent, he's crass and mean. So how in the hell is that going to turn out?
