Sixteen-year-old Jess Parker is stuck babysitting her little brother all weekend, which is why she accepts her best friend’s dare: to text the random phone number they found written on a lost piece of algebra homework. When the owner of the number texts back, Jess and Max hit it off through their anonymous conversation.

Shelby knows that only people with secrets move to the middle-of-nowhere, and she’s right. Clay Thompson has a pretty big secret. He used to be famous.

The New Guy
2018
_Liam's easy A just got complicated. _
Dance class is no joke for sixteen-year-old Asha Bronte. She's been elected as an officer for the class, which is a huge responsibility and honor, and she's not going to screw it up. She has goals in life, and her family is worse than broke, so the only way she's going to college is on a scholarship. Her academics and extra-curricular activities have totally taken over her life. Liam Bavaro just moved to town and his first day of school isn't going so well. The only elective class available is dance. Dance class? He'd rather drop out and live life as a bum than ever step foot in a tutu or tights. The cute girl at the sign up table clearly doesn't want him to join her class, either. And, well, now Liam can't say no.
