When Faith is forced to attend church camp, her path crosses with Hope's, and the two could not be more opposite. Hope sees Faith as her newest mission; Faith wants nothing to do with Hope. But beneath their differences, an unexpected bond begins to form---one that pushes both girls to confront painful secrets, question their beliefs, and redefine what family and friendship truly mean. In this moving coming-of-age story, Hope and Faith learn that loving and losing, defiance and healing, are all part of growing up---and sometimes, the path to redemption begins where you least expect it.

Felicity Rose Bennett has everything the world thinks she wants-chart-topping songs, magazine covers, fans who call her perfect. But the world doesn't know she's hiding. Burned out, suffocated by fame, and haunted by a stalker no one else knows about, Felicity flees to her mothers' quiet Toronto lake house just to breathe for the first time in years. She doesn't expect Harriet Johnson to walk through the door with a suitcase and a key. Harriet has spent the last four years running from her past-alcohol addiction, heartbreak, and the memory of the only girl she's ever loved. Sober now and fighting her way through med school, she only wanted a quiet summer. She didn't know Felicity would be here. She didn't know that sharing a roof again would feel like falling into a storm she thought she'd survived. They were childhood best friends turned teenage lovers-until Harriet broke Felicity's heart in the worst possible way. Now they're twenty-two, trapped by old history and new secrets, in the same house that once held their whispered dreams and first kisses. The deal is simple: her side, my side. But nothing about Felicity and Harriet has ever been simple. Not the history, not the wanting, not the way every look feels like a dare and every brush of skin threatens to set them both on fire. In the thick of July, in a house full of memories, two girls who once had everything will have to decide if second chances are worth the risk-and if loving each other is worth surviving for.

After a summer that changed everything, Lark and Sophie find themselves on opposite sides of a fragile friendship. Torn between loyalty to her boyfriend Liam and the undeniable spark with his sister, Sophie is drowning in secrets.

Titled after Adrianne Lenker's heartbreaking song. Before a thought could enter her mind, Misty approached Shauna with her knife saying nothing but the brunette's name as she did. Of course. I'm the only one that knows how. Shauna realized. Her shaky fingers grabbed the blade and stepped beside the boy. Surrounding him was Van, Nat, and Taissa with broken faces. Shauna couldn't move, her vision focused on Javi's face. Jackie noticed and stepped beside his head, bringing her hands up slowly as she tilted it the other direction. Shauna brought a quivering hand to her head covering and brought it to her eyes. She stepped forward and placed her hand on the cold skin. It was unmistakably human. Unmistakably child. Her fingers crawled to his collarbone and another tear fell. She brought her hand to his neck and made an incision. When she lifted her knife again, her hand was trembling violently. She felt a hand come to hers and gently grab the knife from her. She then heard Jackie's voice demanding the others to go inside and cover the windows. "Tell me what to do," Jackie's low voice said into her ear. ShaunaHat // JackieShauna // FROSTBITEHAT
