Love can appear in the most unexpected of ways. Like a pizza, for example. In order for Rayleigh Brooks to pay for her freshman year of college, she and her best friend move into an apartment with three new roommates, all of whom are sophomore guys she doesn't really know. Amidst the unanticipated chaos of moving in, meeting her roommates, school starting, and ultimately changing the rest of her life forever, Ray can't help but feel pizza is the one constant she still has. But when she calls a local pizza place she endures an embarrassing conversation with the deep, amused voice on the other end of the phone. And the embarrassment only increases when Ray discovers the source of the sexy voice is one of her new roommates. This is a story about first love (realistic fiction), and entails drunken parties, hilarious roommates, and new experiences. Excerpt: I feel his eyes run over my party-ready state and something in my chest tightens. I study his face carefully, unable to look away even if I wanted to. I can almost feel his heated gaze on my skin as he runs his eyes up and down my body, his icy irises glinting with an unfamiliar expression that sets off something deep and molten in my core. There is a smoldering flame behind his cool blue eyes that is alight with a burning passion, and it makes my skin and blood and bones feel like the kindling to a fire waiting to be ignited. If he so much as moves or breathes or steps any closer, I am sure it will be the end of me. (Not completed, includes some cursing and is mildly graphic, so please don't read it if this bothers you)

From bestselling author of Inkling, a painstaking journey of a broken woman determined to heal set in a mythical world- a place of sky oceans, wisteria trees, emotions bottled in vials, scattered houses, dark pasts, backstabbers, unreliable allies and forbidden castles built on clouds. Sarah Amani is a Worldsmith. At eighteen, she accidentally conjured a mythical world she called Lagenda from her mind with the help of a past lover, Malik. Five years had passed and she was on a straight path to healing and moving on. She made sure nobody could enter Lagenda again and only allowed people to come in as wanderers by giving them petals as tickets. It was her way of ensuring that Lagenda remained hers without destroying it. Just when she thought she could leave her past, she was invited back into the world with a note saying "You know what to do. -M". She had to go back to Lagenda to make sure the person who sent her the note could not take the world from her. What Amani found is that Lagenda was not as abandoned as she thought it was. Determined to save her world from being exploited and smeared more than how it already is, she sets to burn every door and relic holding the world together. If she cannot keep Lagenda, nobody should. She tries to uproot and burn Lagenda to the ground but it seemed that the person who sent her the note had other plans. Together with her trusty dagger, Misya, her sister, a stubborn historian called Najmi and all the misfits she never dreamed of collaborating with, she would find herself propelling straight to her dark past and beloved world.
