***WATTYS 2021 YA WINNER*** When her handsome nemesis challenges her to a bet, ambitious eighteen-year-old Nyla must go on more dates than him or risk losing her dream role on the school paper. The only problem is, can she stop herself from falling for him in the process? ***** The world of online dating is hard...especially when the boy you hate turns it into a competition. Ambitious Nyla Satori has a perfect life, except for the fact she's on the brink of adulthood and has never been kissed. She's also about to lose her dream role on the school paper to her ex-best friend turned nemesis, Jax Henderson, unless she can do something to stop him. When Jax spots her eyeing his new dating app, he comes up with a bet that solves all of her problems: the pair will join the app, and whoever scores the most dates in two months wins the role of Faculty Advisor. For Nyla, it's the ultimate bet, but when old feelings resurface and the pair grow closer, she starts to wonder if she really hates Jax as much as she thought she did. Either way, there can only be one winner at the end of two months, and both are certain that it's going to be them. Let the swiping game commence. *If you aren't reading this book on Wattpad, it has been stolen. Please report the website!*

After an offended Greek goddess sends Kenna back in time to Elizabethan England, she discovers she must stop the theft of Shakespeare's best known tragedy before returning to her century, all while resisting the charms of the theatre's Romeo. ***** After being dumped via voice note, Kenna Fernsby is convinced there was never a tale of more woe. Offended by the insult to true tragedy, a Greek goddess banishes Kenna to Elizabethan England, where she stumbles upon a plot to steal the priceless first draft of "Romeo and Juliet" from right under William Shakespeare's nose. Determined to outwit the thieves, Kenna dives into the intrigue, even when doing so may tangle her healing heart with a man from the past and force her to choose between the 16th century life she has fallen in love with and the fate of the play she loves as much.
