Heart Right Through Verdugo
Up until she turned 15, Emma's life was ordinary. Living in Los Angeles, she had a few friends, and loved learning history. She had a fascination with magic growing up, but after elementary, she moved on from the foolish idea, learning the hard way that magic isn't real and that it's only a lie Hollywood had fed her. But her whole perspective shifted again after the passing of her grandpa. She discovered that he had kept a secret from his whole family-that he once was a warlock. He had given up that life when he moved to L.A. in the 1970s, but Emma and her cousin Carolina are determined to learn every trick in the spell book he left behind. Fast forward to a year later, Emma's life takes a new turn. During junior year, a mysterious new student from San Bernardino catches her eye. He's mysterious, intriguing, and mostly keeps to himself, but why? It's what she wonders every day when they cross paths. Who in Glendale would want to be so secretive, anyway? Bobby Staten-that's who. Due to Bobby's classic leather jacket and dark aesthetic, Emma and her friends constantly joke that maybe he's a vampire and that's the secret he's hiding. It's no longer funny when a series of gruesome killings occur at Verdugo High, described by local officers as a bloody mark found on the necks of the victims. Strangely, this same pattern had appeared earlier in spring at a San Bernardino High School. Coincidence? Rebecca, Emma's other cousin, thinks not. Rebecca quickly suspects a connection and begins investigating Bobby's past and persona. As Emma befriends him, she struggles to believe that someone like Bobby could be capable of crimes so vicious. Rebecca reminds her that one of the only ways to permanently kill a vampire is with a stake through the heart-in much more poetic terms, heart right through Verdugo.

Falling Angels: Victoria's Secret
Amelia knows she is different. Her father is the well reknown angel; Gabriel, God's right hand. Her brother is a golden haired, chiseled replica who similarly excels in obeying orders and living godly. Then there is her mother, Victoria. The most beautiful angel ever to exist. She has lushous golden hair that falls in waves, perfect blue eyes with flecks of silver and a figure that attracts men and women alike to her presence. She is the epitome of grace and calm nature, never bending a single rule. Amelia, like her family, excels in all she does. However her ink black hair quickly gives away her oddities from her golden family. She naturally beats out all her peers; in schooling, singing, dancing-everything. But unlike the rest of the angels who remain gracious when they win she is quick to gloat. She loves doing things best. She challenges everyone to think beyond their daily tasks. She is mockful of their passive nature, most of all Victoria. As a sixteen year old all Amelia wants to do is drop to earth below to take part in missions. She is bored of the heavens, bored of the flustery angels tsking behind her back when her temper slips, frustrated by her father's embarrassment of her different nature and spiteful of her mother's meekness and distance. As she views the earth below she feels drawn to the odd sensation of thrill that tingles through her at the chaos exploding below her. As Amelia engrosses herself in the actions below on earth Victoria watches her from afar. Though Victoria's composure appears serene her blue eyes gleam with deeper knowledge and understanding at the peril her daughter is feeling. Victoria knows Amelia will need to fall further than earth to unearth the secret that holds the answer to who she really is. She will soon learn Victoria's secret.Lengkap
