Broken

Broken

by Evelyn Miller

When Lily finds her boyfriend cheating on her the summer before senior year, it's just another broken piece in her already disappointing life. Then she meets Mason, who seems equally as broken for a different reason, but together they make summer their own and set off to complete a bucket list of promises they vow not to break...and maybe some feelings develop along the way. But their summer fling ends in disaster when Lily and Mason realize they're from rival schools, competing in rival teams. Even worse, when a tragic accident puts their priorities into perspective, can Lily and Mason find a way to be together, and will their friends—and the ultra-competitive sports teams—allow them to have the happy ending they dream of...?

Led by the powerful and brooding Alpha Damon Scopus, Ember’s new pack plunges her headfirst into a war she doesn’t understand, a new mate bond she never expected, and shocking revelations about her own identity. Has Ember finally found a place where she fits, or is she hurtling toward her own destruction?

Unfortunate Friends 1: My Best Frenemy

by Ruth Robinson

I hated AJ McGabe.

He was my school’s quarterback, and the other girls treated him like Adonis reborn.

Ngl, he was hot as fuck. But he despised me, and the feeling was so mutual.

The only bright spot for Senior year was that my best friend, Jake, was starting at my school.

And it turned out he already had a friend from football camp here. This guy, Andy.

Jake said the three of us would be spending a lot of time together this semester.

But on the first day of school, I got a nasty surprise when he brought me to meet this Andy guy.

Turns out it was AJ. Fucking. McGabe.

That’s right. My best friend was buddies with my sexy nemesis himself.

Fuck. It was going to be a long semester…

She’s the quiet girl with sapphire eyes and a guarded heart, yet she makes him feel like he’s losing control. With desire sparking and boundaries blurring, can they resist what’s building between them, or will their story rewrite itself under the stars?
