Kylie Galen's about to spend the next three months trapped with a bunch of freaks. After getting caught at a party with alcohol, she’s shipped off to Shadow Falls Camp—a camp for troubled teens. And these kids aren’t normal freaks, either. As Kylie discovers, they’re freaky freaks—witches, vampires, werewolves, fairies and shapeshifters—and the camp is a training ground where they’re taught to harness their powers. All Kylie wants to do is finish out her sentence at the camp…but everything changes when she meets Derek and Lucas. Derek is a smokin’ hot guy with magical powers who’s making it painfully clear that he wants to be more than just friends. And Lucas is a werewolf pack leader with whom she shares a secret past. Lucas has always made Kylie’s insides melt—unfortunately, he wants nothing to do with her. Now Kylie's got two boys playing tug of war with her heart—and a sneaking suspicion that she has magical powers of her own. After Shadow Falls Camp, how will she ever be able to go back to her normal life again?

From the bestselling author of Catching Jordan comes a brand new contemporary YA you won't forget. The finish line is only the beginning... Annie hates running. No matter how far she jogs, she can't escape the guilt that if she hadn't broken up with Kyle, he might still be alive. So to honor his memory, she starts preparing for the marathon he intended to race. But the training is even more grueling than Annie could have imagined. Despite her coaching, she's at war with her body, her mind-and her heart. With every mile that athletic Jeremiah cheers her on, she grows more conflicted. She wants to run into his arms...and sprint in the opposite direction. For Annie, opening up to love again may be even more of a challenge than crossing the finish line. "Breathe, Annie, Breathe is an emotional, heartfelt, and beautiful story about finding yourself after loss and learning to love. It gave me so many feels. Her best book yet." — Jennifer L. Armentrout, New York Times bestselling author of Wait for You

Practice Makes Perfect. Everyone at Hundred Oaks High knows that career mentoring day is a joke. So when Maya Henry said she wanted to be a rock star, she never imagined she’d get to shadow *the* Jesse Scott, Nashville’s teen idol.But spending the day with Jesse is far from a dream come true. He’s as gorgeous as his music, but seeing all that he’s accomplished is just a reminder of everything Maya’s lost: her trust, her boyfriend, their band, and any chance to play the music she craves. Not to mention that Jesse’s pushy and opinionated. He made it on his own, and he thinks Maya’s playing back up to other people’s dreams. Does she have what it takes to follow her heart—and go solo? Note from Miranda: For years, fans have been asking me to write a sequel to Catching Jordan. I do not want to interrupt Jordan and Henry's happiness by causing them drama in a second book, so I decided to feature Sam Henry's little sister in a book. It comes out on July 15, 2015. This is just a sample of the book, but I plan to post more excerpts as the release date draws near. Hope you enjoy this excerpt!

Jordan Woods isn't just surrounded by hot guys, though-she leads them as the captain and quarterback of her high school football team. They all see her as one of the guys and that's just fine. As long as she gets her athletic scholarship to a powerhouse university. But everything she's ever worked for is threatened when Ty Green moves to her school. Not only is he an amazing QB, but he's also amazingly hot. And for the first time, Jordan's feeling vulnerable. Can she keep her head in the game while her heart's on the line? "Whoever said football and girls don't mix hasn't read Catching Jordan. I couldn't put it down!" - Simone Elkeles, New York Times bestselling author of the Perfect Chemistry series. ** Serialized with the permission of the publisher.

They're from two different worlds. He lives in the estate house, and she spends most of her time in the stables helping her father train horses. In fact, Savannah has always been much more comfortable around horses than boys. Especially boys like Jack Goodwin—cocky, popular and completely out of her league. She knows the rules: no mixing between the staff and the Goodwin family. But Jack has no such boundaries. With her dream of becoming a jockey, Savannah isn't exactly one to follow the rules either. She's not going to let someone tell her a girl isn't tough enough to race. Sure, it's dangerous. Then again, so is dating Jack... Author's Note: Over the next month on every Wednesday, I'll be posting exclusive sample chapters of my new book RACING SAVANNAH only on Wattpad! It is like Downton Abbey, but set in the South. Hope you enjoy!
