So with senior year coming to a close, she only has a summer break to make her once mindless daydreams a reality before she has to go back and hit the books for college and she's planning on doing just that. Hazel's going on a running away trip to Paris alone for a week to get the freedom's she's always dreamed of. Dreaming is the easy part though while paying for her little getaway might take some time, time she doesn't necessarily have if she wants to find what she's looking for before the summer ends.

So how do you raise fifteen hundred dollars in such a limited amount of time? In Hazel's mind: a lemonade stand. But when business doesn't turn out so well, an old crush decides to step in and help her. As the two teenagers set off on their fundraising adventures, Hazel might something other than dollar bills. Maybe she really doesn't need to jet off to a European country to get away. Maybe all she needs is a simple boy from the past to find exactly what she's been looking for.

18+Explicit sexual scenes. Very graphic scenes of murder, rape, and drug use. Read at your own discretion. Scarlett Daniels grew up in the system after her parents died from a drug overdose when she was ten years old. Once she turned 18 years old, she ran from the state as fast as she could and started living her own life. Except it wasn't a grand life as she had once dreamed of. Her life now consisted of dancing on poles, answering to a man who tried to own her and living with a best friend who ends up murdered in their apartment. Duke Harvey had a decent childhood; his parents were loaded and he had everything he ever wanted. Until he attended college and the only woman he thought he could trust stabbed him in the back and showed up after several weeks of silence, in a body bag. His entire picture on life changed then and he put his rich-boy shoes away and became a homicide detective. He wanted bad men like the one that hurt his only love to pay for their sins. When Scarlett and Duke meet for the first time, sparks fly and clothes come off. And one chance meeting turns into another until her friend ends up murdered and Duke becomes the lead detective. Now Duke must protect Scarlett from the bad guy while protecting her from himself at the same time. But an insatiable lust blossom's between the two that neither expected to happen. Not only does Duke want to save Scarlett from a wicked and toxic life, but he secretly wants to save himself in the process. Love wasn't a word he used in his vocabulary but something about this woman makes him second guess everything he's believed about love until this point. But one question sticks out in his mind over everything else: is he even capable of love?

High school student Anthony Scalese was having a normal day when his friends decided that they wanted to attend a party. After bumping into Emma, the girl of his dreams, in a not-so-positive way, he realizes that the day isn't going well. It gets worse when tragedy strikes, and his friend takes his own life at that party, forcing him into a depression that not even his little sister can help him out of. The only thing that keeps him going is his excitement for a school camping trip that is coming up with his best friend Edward. After a little mishap while hiking down from their camp site, Anthony and his major crush fall down the side of the mountain and get stuck, then get chased by a gun-wielding maniac into a cave. After what seems like days, they make it out of the cave alive, only to find out that they have ended up in a new world: a world where nothing makes sense. There are giants and leprechauns and shapeshifters...but there is also a great darkness that is out to destroy everyone-and everything-that it sees. Young Anthony finds out that it is up to him and Emma to save this new world with great powers that he had no idea he had, and make it home before anybody suspects a thing. Told from a first-person point-of-view, it goes into detail about the thought processes of a young man who has everything to lose. The protagonist deals with real life struggles every day, including the death of his friend, his dad who left him at an early age, and the pain of seeing his little sister being hurt by her boyfriend. He also has to take charge and become a hero for those who can't against an unwavering bully in a far-away world. My book blends fiction with reality, as the reader follows along in the life of a shy high school student who gets thrown into many situations he must overcome as he finds out who he truly is and why it is him who needs to save the world, while keeping the reader guessing every step of the way.
