(FEATURED) It's been months since the unceremonious fall of Kimie Sato's older sister. The whole of Ridgerock High knows it, and by now, the majority have moved on. But Kimie still watches those who had a hand in it continue to walk free, and the more she observes, the angrier she gets. Fueled by a thirst for revenge, she decides she's had enough and goes after them, one by one. Her plan is simple: Revive her sister's old blog, spy on the culprits for their juiciest secrets, and air them out. Give them a taste of their own medicine. But then one of her targets turns up dead, and fellow animation club member (and longtime crush), West, gets in on her plan. As she struggles to see her plan through to the end, remain anonymous, and fight her growing affection for multiple boys, she realizes she's not the only player in the game she's created. And her opponent may not mind her being dead. CW: violence, mental illness, brief mention of cancer.

{WATTY'S 2020 WINNER & EDITOR'S PICK.} Hopeless romantic and aspiring writer Mare Atwood has fallen madly in love with her childhood correspondent. There's only one catch-she doesn't know who he is. When the beaus of Star's Crossing return from boarding school to begin the courting season, Mare is determined to uncover the identity of her writer, flout her family's intentions of orchestrating an advantageous marriage, and procure the life of writing and romance she's always sought. But as in the tales she so adores, it won't be easy. Galas, masquerades, picnics, and hunts-alongside an old friend, a former teacher, and an unlikely ally, Mare delves into an investigation that leaves her torn between three clever, deceptive, and wealthy young bachelors. If Mare can confirm which is her writer and claim his hand before the courting season ends, she'll have her wish: the love of her life, a valuable marriage, and a future of writing romance. But with the eyes of Star's Crossing upon her, a business plot forcing invisible hands, and the unwillingness of her writer to come forward-Mare's future may not end in triumph, but tragedy. Set against the gilded Victorian backdrop of coastal Connecticut and lush with pre-war luxury, fans of Jane Austen, Margaret Mitchell, and Louisa May Alcott are sure to enjoy this lighthearted, lyrical novel of young love, independence, and identity. #1 Literary #1 YA Romance #1 Victorian #1 Lyrical #8 General Fiction

Tari Ibiyemi and Lani Olaere were highschool sweethearts. The embodiment of the term, 'Young Love' that adored one another unconditionally until Tari fell prey to the cliché vice of breaking Lani's heart, thus killing their ideal relationship. Or so, the world was made to believe as this tale was only a facade worn-a lie told to debunk the curiosity of their peers. After a decade of silence since their bitter squabble, they meet again in present day at a juncture of great compromise that restricts them from pulling out to maintain their distance. With Tari overseeing the resulting project as the acclaimed architect he is and Lani taking action to fill in the role of an enterprising interior designer-they'd find it impossible to sound the death knoll on their resurgent mutual emotions and the zeal to keep their relationship purely platonic. Although, they exercise caution so as to prevent the occurrence of another catastrophe. Little did they know, that their past was only replaying itself in a more disastrous way. -Completed Story.
