But what happens when on one fateful day, Kevin accidentally pocket dials Jamie while he's having an argument with Britney? Secrets are revealed. Secrets that could change everything.

Holly Holloway (in her ironic name glory) was timid and soft-spoken. A quiet honors student who read more than she socialized. But her best friend, Layla Matthews, (the outgoing one) would always push her into doing things out of her comfort zone. After Layla moved to Canada (freaking Canada!), Holly realized just how much she relied on Layla for that extra push. She became even more introverted after her best friend left. But her life completely changes when she sees a terrible crime that sends her, the class clown, and the cute football captain into the Witness Protection Program. But now because of that fateful encounter she is living with two boys and a CIA agent who swears to protect the them. And Holly's name is changed for her protection, fatefully to Layla Hale. With her new name reminding her of her outgoing best friend, Holly creates a whole new identity for herself- one where she's confident and daring and attention-grabbing. She may even catch the eye of that cute football captain along the way. Cover by: sabrina-spellman

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!

"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." In which Ariel Agresti returns from boarding school and finds out that her ex-boyfriend of a player is her brand new neighbour (and that she has better abs than he does).

Charlotte Everley and her best friend had a tradition. Every summer on June 26th, they call one number--one random number of the same area code, purely for entertainment. When Charlotte's best friend Stella found love with the help of their 'tradition', she added another reason. To find Charlotte a boyfriend. After three years of endless match ups, set ups, blind dates. and not to mention two calls to, thankfully, female receivers, the summer of eleventh grade comes rolling by, and so does the fateful day of June 26th. The only difference is that, this time, the stranger behind the phone is most definitely male. And the president's eighteen year old son.

After Julie Delgado's restaurant closes, she temporarily takes over the catering position at the Rose Chalet, a full-service San Francisco wedding venue. She plans to dazzle the bride and groom so the Chalet's owner will keep her around, but fate has other plans for her when the bride's brother shows up for the first food tasting. Andrew Kyle is not only the Cuisine Channel's Edgy Eats host and chef, but his recent review of Julie's restaurant was the final nail in its coffin. Once he meets Julie at the Rose Chalet, he's certain she's playing it safe. And he wants nothing more than to be the one to break her guarded passions loose. But despite the undeniable sparks between Julie and Andrew-and the fact that he seems to believe in her when no one else does-can she afford to be taking risks with her cooking, with her career...or with her heart?

Seventeen year old Madeline Martin gets strange looks for her blue hair and punk fashion, which isn’t such a big deal, but if she gets caught shoplifting or skipping school again, she’ll be permanently dubbed a youth offender. To keep her in line, Madeline's mom sends her to stay with her uncle in upstate New York for the summer, to work in a public library. Alone in the library one night, Madeline stumbles onto an envelope tucked inside the pages of an eighteenth century atlas and unwittingly uncovers a political secret that's been hidden away for centuries. Confiding only in the roguish neighbor guy, who's dealing with issues of his own, Madeline sets out to uncover the truth of what the found documents mean, as well as whoever may be willing to pay big bucks for them. After discovering she’s being followed by a stranger, and the police can’t help her, she has no choice but to unravel the mystery on her own—a mystery that will leave the fate of America, as well as Madeline’s life hanging in the balance.
