Bridgette Haywood's plans for her final summer break as a high school student were nothing out of the ordinary - hit the surf, get a head start on senior year, and have a serious Disney marathon. But when her childhood best friend, Taylor Mallee, decides to make an unexpected - and somewhat unwanted - reappearance in her life, her summer turns into something else entirely. Dramatic and chaotic as always - he promises the adventure of a lifetime. Of course, there will be sass, sarcasm, and a fierce sporting rivalry. But will there be sparks? Or will they only end up burnt by the flames? First book in The Summer Diaries series.

What would you risk for freedom? Mercy Baudelaire has been locked up in a cell since her eleventh birthday when the government came to take her away from her family. The reason? To save their lives. Her childhood was spent on the run, escaping the hands reaching out to pull her into a world of deadly conspiracies and experiments. Her parents kept her hidden, constantly escaping watchful eyes. After years of running, time has caught up with Mercy leaving her trapped like a caged animal. For years she was tortured at the hands of a government too corrupt to care. Because of her gifts she fought so hard to conceal, freedom was nonexistent. Mercy lost all hope the day she had been taken. As Mercy finds herself on the run once again, she encounters misfits with powers of their own; allies in a game of life she was sure to lose. Now, placing faith in freedom didn't sound too impossible to the hopeless young girl. But where faith exists, darkness often lies in wait. Mercy's enemies refuse to go down easily and not even time can save her now. What happens when conspiracies are proven and super-humans fight to take back what is rightfully theirs? In AS THE WORLD TURNS COLD, Mercy Baudelaire sets out on an adventure to prove to herself that in a broken world where the line between human and monster wears thin, a little faith and help from unexpected allies goes a long way.

I felt the sweat trickling down my face, my breath was barely there. Lance was far ahead, his endurance surprised me, what motivated him to run so painstakingly fast every time? What... Motivated me? The snow fell from the heavens, a remnant from two years ago. When I passed the old willow tree, I remembered Grace again, like I remembered her yesterday and the day before that, and the day before that one. She was the only reason I had for putting up with that hag's ridiculous routine. I gathered my strength and trained my eyes on the horizon, picking up my speed after finding my stamina, I sprinted to Lance, just like I had done everyday. Without any words passing between us, we both ran our hardest toward the same goal. - Here is Marie Eloise Ashwinter, at just twelve years of age she's catapulted into a world of magic and mayhem after the supposed death of her dearest friend Grace. Along with her companions, unique in both ability and personality, they will set out on a journey riddled with danger.

Learning in love, mistakes and friendship, Marie fast approaches the threshold of adulthood as a fistful of obstacles lie in wait. With the loss of her parents plaguing her past, the absence of Grace consuming her at present, and a world of adventure awaiting her future, she will blossom into a woman who shall inspire a generation.

And that's why this book was created. It was created to tell their unspoken stories and his memories. Each segment a memory of his forgotten life added to the confusion of the after life and the voices inside his head.

Concluded•✓ He doesn't know how he ends up in the forest that night, how he ends up in a natural coffin of thorns and roots. He doesn't remember much, or even anything, about his life before rising.

To someone like Asher Wentz, singing in a band and playing his trusty Fender is the greatest kind of therapy. Music takes the edge off. It enables Asher to escape from the crowding thoughts rampaging through his mind. The chaos is taking control. The troubles of his past are catching up with him and he's afraid that someday soon he won't be able to continue the fight. Battling with inner demons and sanity isn't an easy task. Words and ideas get lost along the way and there are days when the darkness creeps in, breaking down the walls that he's spent too long trying to build. Writing lyrics just might be the only thing that can save his life.

Add a little pinch of family drama, a dollop of humor and we have the perfect recipe for disaster. One thing is for certain, it is going to be one hairy adventure. ---
