Erica Winters lives in a world where everything is absolutely perfect. All individuals are ideal, without a single flaw. But Erica is different. No matter what, she can’t be like the others. She stands out from the middle of a crowd, noticeable and utterly imperfect, especially since Aline perished five months ago. The dauntless rebel inside of her she tried hard to stifle after Aline’s death is starting to return, accompanied by the unwanted insubordinate emotions. Insurgents, her former colleagues, pop out around her, convincing her to come back. With a decisive refusal, she goes through the official procedure on her sixteenth birthday — where she is developed to become more flawless. But the medics must have made a mistake, because when she opens her eyes, her defiant feelings are more powerful than ever. Hatred and antipathy consumes her whole, battling to come to the surface, while she forms an unlikely friendship with Aaron Forbes.  When she finds a document that reveals the council’s true intentions... Erica has to learn how to conceal her inner conflicts and figure out how to save not only the ones she loves, but the whole nation. Cover By @hepburnettes

Faye Caldwell has never been the same ever since her sister, Terra, killed herself seven years ago. She's haunted by her sister's memory, taunted by nightmares that mock the day her sister plunged to the ground. The fear of falling and ending up like Terra consumes her. Even the slighest falls make Faye scream, the terror taking over her body. Faye doesn't know how much more she can take. What she doesn't know is that those fears and dreams will drive her to do something that will change the way she looks at her life forever. Kole Frost lives a normal life. He has friends that he can (somewhat) count on, and a brother who is always there for him. He doesn't think that being dragged to Xia, a club that allowed minors, would do anything to him. He doesn't want to go, but he goes anyway--just to get his friend off his back. And when his best friend, Terence, gets drunk, he doesn't think anything of it. It's normal. Normal. But little does he know that that trip to Xia is about to change his life forever. The two worlds collide when Faye and Kole meet at the legendary Gate. The Gate, said to be protecting them from a horrible beast on the other side of its borders. The Gate which separates the two genders from each other. The Gate, which no one has ever seen before. That is, until now. Faye and Kole will learn that their "normal" worlds are not so normal after all. They'll learn that Cesve has secrets, ones that have been kept for a long, long time. And they take it upon themselves to find out just what those secrets are. There is one thing that must always be remembered: The Gate keeps them apart.

[BEING PUBLISHED -- sample and more info inside] One girl. One camp for delinquents. One hell of a summer. Falice Winters has always been the goody-two shoes. Her twin Arabelle . . . not so much. So what happens when their dad plans to ship Arabelle off to a camp to clean up her act? Well, naturally, Arabelle would find a way out. Her solution? Falice! It was a simple plan: Falice would pretend to be Arabelle and go to the delinquent camp while Arabelle got to have the time of her life with her boyfriend in London. Falice thought her summer was going to consist of sitting on the couch reading novels all day or hanging out with her friends. Never did it cross her mind that she would be pretending to be her sister in a camp of delinquents. But now she's stuck at a camp all summer where being rude is the new "in." And everything turns for the worse when someone figures out her secret. Will Falice survive the summer? Or will everyone learn that she's faking delinquency?
