Katherine Rodriguez has always had her life perfectly mapped out; great grades, a loving family, and an unbreakable bond with her best friends. As the captain of the cheerleading squad and the girl everyone looks up to, she's used to having it all together. But when her heart gets caught between the boy who's always been there and the one who finally stepped up, her world starts to unravel. Henry Miller, her steady rock, offers her comfort, safety, and love that grows stronger with every glance. But Ashton Garcia, her childhood best friend, was the boy who once had her heart, only to stay silent for too long. Now, as senior year draws to a close and life beyond high school looms, Katherine must navigate the emotions she's kept buried for so long. Torn between memories of the past and promises for the future; with friendships on the line and her heart pulled in opposite directions, she's left questioning; can love truly erase what's been left unsaid? In a whirlwind of parties, bonfires, laughter, and heartbreak, Katherine discovers that sometimes, choosing who you love is just the beginning.

The first chance she gets, Corrine Whitman tries to escape from the man who abducted her. But when James catches her, she has to deal with his bizarre guilt trip. Doesn't she enjoy his company, the game nights, stimulating conversations? Doesn't she know how lucky she is to be taken by a caring man instead of a psycho? He tells her he can't live without her. He won't live without her. But Corrine has to get home to her father. So, she has a new tactic--earn James's trust and enjoy her new family--or at least pretend. If Corrine plays the game, she'll be given freedom to leave the house, just like other women she's met who were kidnapped. Corrine can't fathom how so many women and children are taken and live seemingly normal lives with their captors all across the country. But she can relate--she's one of them. Corrine plots the perfect escape. Yet, the more time she spends with James, the harder it is to leave. She knows she's suffering from Stockholm syndrome, but she is determined to save herself and the others. And if she escapes? Corrine knows no one has ever left alive-she has to be the first.

*the book cover might be subject for changes and might be a temporary place holder* Where We Belong tells a grounded and emotional story centered on Derrick Blake, a loner who keeps both his distance from others and his strange powers a secret. He never wanted to step into the role of a hero, until the day he meets Raven, a girl whose quiet traumatic past unknowingly set him down that very path. As Derrick grows closer to Raven, he uncovers disturbing truths: her pain isn't isolated but there are others who've suffered similar trauma, their voices silenced. Determined to seek justice for the victims, Derrick embarks on a journey he never asked for, one that forces him to confront not only the darkness outside but around him. Alongside his brother Alex, Derrick must stay ahead of Pandora, a secretive organization that hunts people like them. Their fight becomes even more complicated when they cross paths with another gifted individual someone who shares their desire to take Pandora down, and who ends up showing them their world might be bigger than they thought. At its heart, Where We Belong is a story about trust, healing, finding connection and self discovery in a world determined to tear it away. It's as much about uncovering conspiracies as it is about discovering where and with whom you truly belong.
