Bel-Air is all about appearances-perfect houses, perfect grades, perfect friendships. At least, that's what newly eighteen-year-old Xandria Lark has been brought up to believe. But beneath the manicured lawns and luxury cars lurks a world of betrayals, fake smiles, and secrets sharp enough to cut.
Xandria's inner circle is anything but simple. Her ride-or-die best friends? A boy she's known forever, a girl who doubles as her personal stylist, and a pair of twin socialites who could buy the world but don't quite know how it works. Her ex? Nerdy, sweet, and still lingering on the edges. And then there are the ones she pretends to call friends-the liars, the fakes, the players, and the backstabbers who keep the halls of Crescent Ridge High buzzing.
Navigating them all is a full-time job. But when a Saturday night spins wildly out of control, Xandria realizes that the people you trust-and the people you don't-might not be who you thought they were. Because in Bel-Air, loyalty is rare, enemies wear designer shoes, and the truth is never what it seems.

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.
A Larkhaven Series: House of Lark Year 1

Freshman McKenzy Beck is supposed to keep her head down, earn straight A's, and avoid school scandal like it's contagious. But when girls start disappearing, secrets start spreading, and "mentorship" starts looking more like manipulation, McKenzy finds herself tangled in a system built on silence. A system that rewards obedience and punishes truth. A system that smells like scripture and bleach. As rumors turn into receipts and whispers turn into war, McKenzy must decide: stay quiet and stay safe, or speak out and risk everything-including her spot at the top, her friendships, and her name. Told in sharp, observant, and emotionally raw narration, this coming-of-age thriller is a dark, witty descent into what happens when faith is weaponized, and girls are told to pray the truth away.

✨COMPLETED✨ I took a few steps before I stopped to face him again. "Jay?" I said, barely above a whisper. "Hmm?" "I love you. You know that right?" I asked, kind of unsure. "of course.

He needs to understand that I don't have a choice. Or do I? "I do too. But...Why are you saying it like that?" He asked, feeling a little anxious. "Like what?"
