Delena is determined to have a good time at summer camp and forget about her backstabbing ex-best-friend Mei. But when Mei shows up at camp too, suddenly revenge looks a lot more appealing than forgetting. * * * * * As far as 17-year-old Delena Torres is concerned, friendship is nothing more than a quick way to get hurt. This has been her mindset for the past two months anyway, ever since her best friend Mei ditched her and started hanging out with her arch enemy. She's more than ready to spend summer vacation alone-- then her parents surprise her by signing her up for a photography course at Camp Create It, the summer camp she and Mei always dreamed of attending. Still, even if she has to be surrounded by other campers, Del's determined not to get attached to anyone. She'll spend the summer by herself, honing her photography skills and forgetting about Mei. Easy, right? Maybe, if it wasn't for the fact that her quirky cabin-mate seems deadset on becoming friends. Or if she could stop running into the cute guy from the kitchen staff. Oh, and if she wasn't in the middle of a prank war after one stupid attempt at revenge, since Mei just happened to show up at camp, too. Yeah, this "lone wolf" thing might be harder than she thought.

NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON! I WOULD LOVE IF YOU COULD LEAVE A REVIEW COMPLETE & CLEAN NO MATURE CONTENT / SWEARING IN THIS STORY! EXCERPT: "What the heck is wrong with you?" He was breathing hard, his face white and shocked, his hair dishevelled. My heart raced. I was both scared and oddly excited to see him in such a state, so unlike his typically controlled self. "I-I don't know." "You hate me," he said firmly, as though trying to make it true. "You-you hate me. So why the hell would you risk your life for mine?" "Because," I stammered, and of course he was asking questions I had no answers for. "I might not love you. You might be an awful, despicable person, but... that doesn't make it right for me to stand by and watch you die, not when I could do something about it, not when-" There were no answers, no words left in my mind or my mouth when he crossed the room and kissed me. - ALEXANDER STEELE: Cold-hearted. Hard-headed. Absolutely jaded. And he doesn't believe in love - or expect that any of the above will change with the marriage contract he signs. KATERINA DEVEREAUX: Gentle. Selfless. Just as stubborn as her future husband. She doesn't know if she can change him - but she has faith that God will.

CHRISTIAN WITH A DASH OF ROMANCE. Is beauty a curse? Is it a curse when all everyone sees is the beautiful outside and not the wounded soul hiding inside? The world has never failed to remind Mia Taylor that she's as pretty as they come. Her appearance has been used to the benefit of others. It's no wonder she considers her beauty a flaw, an inconvenient thing that has chained her down. She swears never to do anything to draw more attention to herself but desperate circumstances force her to enter a career in modeling. And even as she lets herself be put on a pedestal, she continues to loathe that quality. But as Mia grows closer to God and good friends, she realizes her beauty isn't a thing to be hated and that she has a right to embrace not just her inner beauty, but her outer beauty.
