They say enemies make the worst distractions. But what if they're the only ones who ever really see you? Summer Grace had everything under control. A few more months of school, a plan to stay far away from Elijah Fraser-the infuriatingly smug person across the street. But after a heartbreak she didn't see coming, her world shifts. Friends vanish, trust shatters, and in the silence that follows, Elijah becomes... something else entirely. He's the only one who notices when she's pretending. The only one who makes her smile when she swears she won't. The only one who says things like: "You already light up every room you walk into... but tonight, you shine even brighter." But just when things start to make sense, a new guy with golden hair and a perfect smile shows up-and he offers Summer something Elijah never has: simplicity. Now, stuck between a guy who's too easy to fall for and one she swore she'd never even like, Summer must ask herself: Can you choose the heart that feels safe... or the one that sets you on fire? There will be heartbreak. There will be trust broken. There will be happiness. And maybe-just maybe-a former enemy was never really an enemy at all or maybe they were just meant to be strangers.

You've never, ever read a book like this. When a sexually-transmitted plague breaks out in Ashley Young's small town, leaving its victims with a bizarrely amplified libido, everything about her life changes. DEAD IN BED is partly a suspense thriller with a strikingly unique story, partly a page-turning mystery about a disease that makes people hopelessly crave sexual contact, and partly a neo-western adventure in the American heartland. For readers who can handle a smart, controversial female protagonist who's willing to do anything -- no matter how difficult or morally questionable -- in order to survive, the series pulls them in like an unshakeable addiction. . . . Bailey Simms, teen author of DEAD IN BED, is stuck at home with a rare medical condition. Writing is her only escape, so she's determined to keep her salacious series hidden from her strict father. Soon an older boy starts to secretly help her, and Bailey finds new opportunities for freedom she's never had. But as DEAD IN BED grows in popularity, and Bailey's fans start to clamor for the sequel, she learns that being a successful Wattpad author may come with a terrifyingly dangerous price.

Religion rules Constantine's world...and she has been condemned as the Spawn of the Devil. She is a Champion, a human being blessed with superhuman abilities by the deities of her world. However, her patron happens to be the Lord of War and Strategy - and women were never supposed to be Champions of War. In order to survive in a world that would rip her apart, she disguises as a boy, training to fulfil her supposed destiny. But fate has other things in store for her. An ancient evil is rising - and only Constantine may have the power needed to fight it. Along with a brash warrior and a too-perceptive scholar, Constantine begins to unravel secrets of a prophecy foretelling the end of the world.
