I’d kill to be the kind of dancer my mom wants me to be, but it’s just not in the cards. I’m sick of dieting. I'll never fit into the perfect ballerina mold, and I’m tired of wishing that I could. I’m over it. I’m done trying. I’m perfectly content to dance alone in the dark while the rest of the school is sleeping.

Everyone at the ballet academy thinks they know me—the prima donna. The diva. The mean girl. They’re wrong. What they don’t know is that I’m moments away from losing my meticulously planned out life. I’m not one to show weakness but my ankle has a different agenda. Adding Ryan to that equation only complicates things more and suddenly the only person who can save my future—and my secrets—is the one person I’m not sure I can trust.

Even though I’m around hot football players every afternoon, they are not allowed to date me. If they even come close to flirting, my dad, Coach “The Boss” Davis, makes them run laps around the field until they puke. Not only has he forbidden me to date anyone at all, he’s even made me the football team’s water girl so he can keep tabs on me. What Dad doesn’t know is that I spend every last second of those two blissful hours of practice in the scorching California heat staring at Tyson Blake. He is the epitome of perfection. And Dad hates him.

My plan was perfect: convince my best friend and school quarterback, Ethan, to be the final prize for my matchmaking test where the proceeds go to sending the band to Paris. Plus, if it matches me with my lifelong crush, that's a bonus, right? What could go wrong? Apparently, a lot. First, the test matches me and Ethan. Which is easy to explain. Computers make mistakes all the time, right? Second, the girl I switch myself for seems perfect for Ethan. Maybe a bit too perfect. Third, my date with my crush goes horribly wrong, and my first kiss tanks.

Mom and I just needed a place to start over. Somewhere to move on from the past that haunts us. Smoky Hills, Tennessee seemed to be exactly what we needed. Here, I could be invisible. That is, until quarterback Liam Bronson decides I’m important. Even though there are plenty of girls who would love his attention, he doesn’t seem to care. The way he stares at me is like I’m the only one that matters, even in a room full of people.

I've been in love with my brother's best friend for as long as I can remember. Once upon a time he was my knight in shining armor, but now? He acts like I’m his worst enemy. I don't know why Cooper Jenkins insists on keeping me at arm's length—which is hard to do when he’s my partner at the Academy—or why he insists on shielding me from every other boy at school. I don’t want to be at Oakwood high anymore than he seems to want me there, so why won’t he leave me alone?

Jeden Tag kämpft Wren ums Überleben. Seit dem Tod ihrer Eltern versucht sie, ihre Schwester und sich durch den erbarmungslosen Winter zu bringen, der ihre Heimat Edgewood beherrscht. Nur ein magischer Schattenwall trennt Edgewood von den Dunkelgängern, die allen Menschen nach dem Leben trachten. Und nur eine Hochzeit zwischen einer sterblichen Frau und dem unsterblichen Frostkönig Boreas, dem Nordwind, kann diesen Schattenwall aufrechterhalten. Als Boreas ausgerechnet Wrens Schwester zu seiner Braut kürt, ist Wren bereit, alles zu tun, um sie vor dem eiskalten Herrscher zu retten.

Mom’s sick. Desperate to get some sunshine and relaxation, my parents packed up my brother and I and moved us to a small ranch in Montana. I’m not really interested in making friends. Not when my time with my mother might be cut short.

The summer is coming to an end, and I’m barely surviving. Dad’s gone. Mom spends more time passed out on the couch than doing anything else. Thankfully, I have school and soccer to keep me distracted. Until Logan Cartwright walks back into my life. He’s acting like his family didn’t ruin mine and confusing me more than ever. I’m supposed to hate him, but he’s nice and everywhere I don’t want him to be.

I'm determined to make my senior year epic. I'd finally risen up in social rank, and I'm ready to rule the school. Everything seems perfect, until I find myself standing in front of Colten.

I thought I was strong enough to go along with the plan. Fake dating heart throb Cayden Rivers seemed simple enough. Apparently not. I am just trying to survive. Spending the summer with my loosey-goosey Dad in Hollywood, CA is just enough to send my OCD tendencies into hyperdrive. But Mom thinks it's good for me. And my best friend Michelle has agreed to come along.

To say that I'm excited to have my best friend come live with me is an understatement. Even though he's not my boyfriend and I would never look at him as such, I'm excited that with him around, I'm no longer the ninth wheel. Plus, having a movie buddy to watch my favorite movie Dirty Dancing is a plus. Even if he rolls his eyes every time we watch it.

We're starting over. Mom and Dad think the best way for me to move on from the death of Ben is to move to Oakwood. There, we can spend time with Mom's late best friend's family and open a new bakery. And I'm okay with that. After all, I get to dance and in Oakwood where no one knows me, which means there are no pity stares and silent whispers.

Olivia hat den perfekten Plan: Um ein Date mit ihrem Schwarm Lachlan zu ergattern, spielt sie Amor an ihrer Highschool und verkuppelt ihre Mitschüler. Sie lässt alle einen Test ausfüllen, der dann die kompatibelsten Pärchen für ein Date auswählt. Und weil Lachlan und Livi wie füreinander geschaffen sind, wird der Test sie zusammenbringen - und Livi wird endlich ihren ersten Kuss von Lachlan bekommen! Nur dass bisher noch niemand bei ihrer Verkupplungsaktion mitmachen will.

Pennys Leben funktioniert nach drei Regeln: 1. Sie gibt sich nur mit Bestnoten zufrieden. 2. Sie verliert nie einen Geländelauf. Und 3.: Sie spricht niemals mit Cade Kelley. Letzteres ändert sich jedoch schlagartig, als der Schulleiter persönlich sie zu Cades Mentorin erklärt. Ausgerechnet! Alles wäre besser, als ihre freie Zeit mit diesem nervtötenden und arroganten Mistkerl verbringen zu müssen. Stünde nicht ihre College-Bewerbung auf dem Spiel, würde sie sich nie und nimmer darauf einlassen. Aber Penny bleibt keine Wahl.

An Destinys Highschool zählt nur eine Regel: Niemand datet die Tochter des Coachs! Und wenn ein Spieler Destiny trotzdem zu lange ansieht, scheucht der Coach ihn für zwei Extrarunden ums Feld - denn nichts vertreibt Jungs so zielsicher wie physischer Schmerz! Destiny hat sich damit abgefunden, und so bleibt ihr nichts anderes übrig, als ihren Schwarm Tyson Blake aus der Ferne anzuhimmeln. Tyson, der immer ein Grinsen im Gesicht hat und so verdammt gut aussieht. Tyson, der immer einen witzigen Spruch auf den Lippen hat.

Tensions escalate in Smoky Hills as the warring pack battles to see who the new alpha will be. Friends are pitted against each other and humans' lives are at risk.

My brother is gone. Vanished. Disappeared. Which is not like him at all. Not when he promised to never leave me alone in Smoky Hills. Even though I pretend I’m strong, I know I’m not. Not without Grayson. If only I could find him and bring him back, my chaotic life would finally return to normal. Before I can even create a plan, another shifter from the woods shows up, making Smoky Hills his home. Matthew Young, the new wide receiver. He's dark. He's brooding. And he has all other shifters on edge. As if there's a reason he's here that he's not telling us....
