Thanks so much for your support] http://www.penguin.com/book/tryst-by-alex-rosa/9780698194649 In this sensational New Adult debut by Alex Rosa, boyfriends are too much trouble. So what’s the harm in a little fun? With an abusive relationship behind her, Skyler moves out of her Orange County apartment, changes her phone number, cuts ties with her friends, and moves in with her brother Josh, a talent agent with a spare room in his incredible house in Hollywood. Josh is happy to take Skyler under his wing, but he has one rule: she can’t sleep with his roommate, Blake. That’s fine by Skyler. She doesn’t want a man in her life right now—and certainly not cocky Blake who’s with a different girl every night. But his all-American boy charm and his ripped model physique are difficult to refuse. Josh will never know if no one ever tells him. And a little secret now and then never hurt anyone…

Wuthering Heights is a wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundling adopted by Catherine's father. After Mr Earnshaw's death, Heathcliff is bullied and humiliated by Catherine's brother Hindley and wrongly believing that his love for Catherine is not reciprocated, leaves Wuthering Heights, only to return years later as a wealthy and polished man. He proceeds to exact a terrible revenge for his former miseries. The action of the story is chaotic and unremittingly violent, but the accomplished handling of a complex structure, the evocative descriptions of the lonely moorland setting and the poetic grandeur of vision combine to make this unique novel a masterpiece of English literature.

“this is a mistake,” she says, “this whole thing. we’re messed up together. we’re like—like a scientific law being proven wrong, an imbalanced equation. we’re not allowed to exist like this. i wasn’t supposed to meet you, you weren’t supposed to meet me. now look where it’s gotten us both.” she stares up at me with those huge eyes, big blue deer in the headlights almost and i feel like i can drown in them and my throat tightens when i see her expression, pained and devastated and nostalgic. “it still happened, though,” is all i can manage to say, “i mean, i still met you.” i can barely hear the sigh that escapes her as she takes my hand and i clutch it because it is a lifeline. “and that is what makes all the difference in the world.” \\\ beautiful sarcastic intelligent misanthropic: ver, always the popular one, now wants nothing to do with anyone after a summer that she is sure to remember for the rest of her life, especially with her scar to remind her. right now, there are only her and her numbers, scientific processes that require only her mind, hard and cold. artistic introverted gifted lost: brody has been a loner for as long as he can remember. and when no one is there, who will hear you scream? even though he’s found a voice in his gift for the theatre, it might not be enough to drown out a silence that has been there for his entire life. when they meet, they automatically see in each other their own reflections: two people tossed into a sea, struggling to stay afloat, so alike in so many aspects, almost—parallel.

Georgie Talbot is a nerd. She gets bullied daily, but does nothing to stop it. One day, a creepy man who is neither a murderer, rapist or stalker (she checked) approaches her. He needs her help. His son, Breton Joel, needs to be saved within 45 days. Georgie says yes, and with that her impossible mission begins. Breton Joel is a bad boy. He's never met Georgie, never heard of her. If he has seen her, it would have been that one time he knocked her down in the hallway, but he wasn't paying attention to her then. He needs help, needs Georgie's help, but he doesn't know it yet. When the two meet, it becomes one of Georgie's nightmares. Saving the bad boy? From what? He's not the one being bullied! He doesn't need saving from anything. He can do this himself! Unfortunately, Georgie's first impression is wrong. Breton needs her help. Badly. But Georgie needs his help too. Can these two work together? What happens when the 45 days are up? ~~ Thanks to DayDreamer48 for the cover art!! ~AwesomeMC ~~ Humor: #19 Romance: #22 Disclaimer: I do not own any of the TV shows, movies, books, actors, etc. mentioned in this book.

Sixteen-year-old Pippa Greene never goes anywhere without her camera. She and her best friend/supermodel-in-training Dace long ago mapped out their life plan: Pippa will be the noted fashion photographer, and Dace the cover girl. But ever since last spring, things have changed for Pippa — and her junior year at Spalding High proves to have its own set of challenges. Not only is Vantage Point, the statewide photography competition, in three short weeks, but her mandatory volunteer placement lands her at St. Christopher’s Hospital, a place Pippa never wanted to set foot in again. With humour and pluck, she navigates her new role as a candy striper (watch out for Code Yellows), her changing relationship with her best friend (goodbye Honesty Pact), and — perhaps most stressful of all — her new love interests (yes, love interests plural). Will Pippa make it to Vantage Point without having a panic attack? Will either one of the guys prove less sketchy than her last boyfriend? Can she and Dace figure out a way to dream big and be best friends? One thing is certain: real life is a lot more complicated than a photograph. New chapter updates every Wednesday!
