contemporary mystery romance scifi supernatural youngadult

A desert-town math whiz meets an ambidextrous artist, a Scorpio... in the wake of a best friend's death, two white envelopes that freak people out, and a diamond pearl that might be LSD.

In the outskirts of Las Vegas, freshman Aurora (a.k.a. Ari) takes refuge in calculus and probability problems to escape the demons of her painful past. Math was what the prestigious prep school Staglight Academy had recruited her for-her, a girl from the wrong side of the train tracks. Plus, numbers are logical; math makes sense. This predictable world built on immutable mathematical theorems doesn't plague you with chronic insomnia, doesn't let Katrina-your best friend-die, and definitely doesn't hurl a tornado through the middle of the Mohave.

But a desert cyclone is exactly how their twin escapes begin-Ari, running from the horrors that have chased her throughout time, and Xanexa, running from the horrors that have chased xyr across the universe. 

They run until they meet, when Ari comes face-to-face with xyr, an amazing artist whose sketches are so real they could come to life. From that initial encounter, she begins to discover the dangerous, life-threatening truths that had been buried with Katrina. Under an increasingly constricting web of manipulation and deceit that imperil Ari and those around her, those truths resurface with the ones about herself that had been buried beneath the sands of time-truths that are wholly irrational, just like art--

--and pi, a number xe shows her the end to, even though it is real, irrational, natural, and never-ending.Tutti i diritti riservati

With Vanillas and Strawberries di nahiabbatahido

An Indian TeenFic | 2nd Book (A spin-off) | Nihaara Thakur wasn't just fed with a silver spoon; she was fed gold through it. She might not know the height of the Eiffel Tower but surely her parents had a baby pic of her with it. She didn't know the quadratic formula but of course she kept a check on her calories. She happened to be only fourteen and helplessly naïve when she became completely obsessed with her brother's best friend. Arav Kulkarni was the kindest, nicest (and one hell of a gorgeous) person she'd met. He taught her quadratic formula, made her love mathematics, told her the ways of life, and most importantly. . .helped her recognise herself. In return, he did fall even harder. . .but there's one thing every guy on Earth knows. Never fall for your friend's sister. Especially not if you know you will potentially leave her heartbroken, scarred for life and afraid to ever love again. It results in ruination of an otherwise perfect friendship; something a little too high on the regret scale. Sparks fly and hate strikes. When you feel for someone so strongly that you forget the difference between love and loathe, the line between giving up and giving in starts to blur. You become reckless, ready to touch the forbidden. And then you know exactly what they mean when they talk about forbidden fruits tasting the sweetest. ****************** Book 2 (spin-off) after WMAC published on my account. This one can be read as a standalone, but I would highly recommend reading that one first.

An Actual Nerd di QueenJemB

The chemical formula is simple: Nerdy, shy, introverted good girl who has her quirks and her secrets and her embarrassing flaws and the reckless, bad attitude, non-commital bad boy... (But you've totally rooted out his soft spot: It's kittens). It's science: All is meant to go as planned. Hypothesis? They fall in deep, unbreakable love. Equipment? One boy, one girl, one insane family and one dark past. Safety precautions? *Skips past* Results? Ah...Crap. Well, something clearly went wrong here, 'cause the answers are completely out of whack. When Charlie Lest gets herself into what seems like a harmless but is actually a rather sticky situation, she can't get herself out of it on her own. Her own stubborn nature and determination to stay independent runs her into Hayden Que: He too is stubborn, but shows his frustrations outwardly. It lands him in daily trouble. Turns out, he's in a sticky situation of his own. Charlie had one choice to make: To be honest, or to try and hope things don't crumble just to save her pride.

The same man who swore on one solemn thing in his life; that he would never tutor. The same man now destined to be her new professor. As time progresses and schemes, secrets, and old friends and foes alike come out to play, it wasn't hard to predict that things other than numbers wouldn't add up. - Even to a mathematical genius. *This book is a sequel to The Mathematician and cannot be read as a stand-alone.

Perennials - Love Between The Lies di graceful_pen

"You're not supposed to be awake," she said to him. Her voice was rather deep, but somehow, still soft and feminine. "And you're not supposed to be here." He didn't dare get out of bed, but he rose onto his elbow. She squinted for a moment and then raised one corner of her mouth. "You naughty boy! Been skimping on your meds, have you?" ********************************************** He is utterly lost. Lost in time, without control. Lost in a world that's strange and daunting. But he must not give up. He's a fighter, after all. And though his sword fighting skills don't count for much here, it's the unrelenting spirit that can either break or save him. And her...

The Mathematician (Book 1) di TheBibicalSinner

"I could tutor you, but I don't think you'd be able to concentrate." • • • When Cassandra Berry gets offered a shitload of money and a place at any college of her choice, just to con a man and getting pregnant with a said man, the answer seems pretty straight forward; Yes. - But Harry Xavier Devon is no mere fool. With two millennium prizes on his back and renowned around the world as the next Newton within mathematics, Harry easily sees through his brother's ploy to have a woman seduce him and get her pregnant when he himself can't have children. His brother in desperate need of an heir for his business empire, but Harry has no intentions of playing the scapegoat. Flipping the play against his brother, he pays Cassandra double the money to continue lying to his brother that they *are* having sex. He thinks he's gotten his revenge when it suddenly appears he's gotten more than he bargained for. Cassandra is no shy woman, or as previously thought, just a money-grabbing whore. Stuck in the same house together for a whole summer could prove to teach the mathematician that some things can *never* be calculated... - Especially when dealing with a (horny) woman.
