Lost In The Fray
Nia Evans feels as though her kidney disease is ruining every aspect of her life. In particular, her last year of school. So, rather than return to the whispers full of lies that suffocate her, she opts to resit her final year at a different school. Where, she hopes, her disease won't consume her so she can pretend to be just like everyone else and get past the resentment she hides from her dad. But on her first day, her photo is taken by the one boy who will ruin her chances to blend in. All Milo Thompson has ever wanted to do is swim. As a child, the Olympics was his dream. But now, he understands his dreams were unrealistic. Caught between his parents' abusive relationship, he's left to look after his eight-year-old sister. Afraid of exposing weakness, he hides behind a reputation that no longer belongs to him. All at the expense of the future he still dreams of. When they meet and find art as a common ground, they open up to each other more than they ever intended through their work. Milo learns to express his true emotions in more than just his drawings. And Nia discovers that perhaps there is more to life than her disease. But as their attraction for one another becomes impossible to ignore, they both hide behind their insecurities, unwilling to accept what the other is so desperate for them to see, their self-worth.Lengkap

All Emily wants is to find a magical lamp like Aladdin and have a genie grant her three wishes; to be back with her mom in Cedar Heights, for her mom's cancer to disappear and to figure out why her relationship with her boyfriend, Mason, is circling the drain. But as the school year progresses she realizes life tends to have plans of its own-as more and more circumstances throw Ian and Emily together, she comes to realize that maybe, just maybe, it's okay not to have everything figured out and sometimes you need to have the courage to take a leap of faith and try something new-like Ariel did when getting new legs or Cinderella did when standing up to her stepmother and stepsisters. A note from the author: This book deals with mature and sensitive topics like attempted rape, physical, emotional, and sexual abuse and has some mild language.Lengkap

That means fresh starts, bold choices, and finally checking off the bucket list she's been hiding in the back of her journal-including learning to swim. So when she moves to the sleepy coastal town of Seaview Bay to spend the summer with her artsy aunt, Bailey's all in for spontaneous adventures and maybe even a little romance. What she doesn't plan on is nearly drowning on day one-and being rescued by Emmett Carson, a sarcastic, tourist with hazel eyes and the emotional range of a brick wall. Bailey's sunshine soul is everything Emmett wasn't expecting from his quiet beach break... and everything he didn't know he needed. They strike a deal: he'll teach her how to swim and survive the sea, and she'll try not to overshare her entire life story before lunch. But between sandcastle competitions, stargazing talks, and accidentally falling harder than either of them meant to, this summer might just change everything. Because sometimes, all it takes is one perfectly reckless summer, one impossible boy, and one ray of sunshine to make you feel like you belong. -- #1 in bucketlist (06/03/25) #1 in fireworks (06/05/25)Lengkap
