Just when she decides she wants to be with Torin forever, she must fight to protect her mother and sister from being harmed by a formidable evil.

Ever since her parents divorced, she starves in her father’s absence, skipping school and experimenting with boys and drugs in search of relief. Her mother’s latest fixation is a married evangelical preacher, but Katie isn’t convinced Pastor Jones is the salvation her family needs. What makes it worse is Brian’s daughter is none other than Katie’s ex best friend. Once Marge’s binge drinking and irrational behavior leads to physical abuse and plans for murder, Katie is powerless to stop her mother from destroying what’s left of their strained relationship.

Something of a Kind
by Miranda Wheeler

As a 17-year-old artist, Alyson Glass had her future mapped – she’d go to art school, study in Paris, and eventually make enough bank to support her single mother. The trouble is
,
things don’t always go as planned – especially a sneak attack of stage-four ovarian cancer.  Suddenly motherless and court-ordered to move in with her estranged father, Aly’s forced to leave behind her New York hometown for the oddities of Alaska. Ashland seems like cruel and unusual punishment – at least until her dad ditches her at a local restaurant and she crashes into a super-hot, guitar-playing diner-boy with a horrific home life. Noah Locklear is used to waiting – waiting for his shift to end, waiting until his drunkard parents go to bed, and waiting for the day he can get his sister away from their dysfunctional family. The summer before senior year, the elusive researchers that ruthlessly pry into Ashland’s history shatter a final cord with Noah’s abusive father, one of the town’s elders. Unfortunately, as far as his parents are concerned, the new girl who’s changing everything belongs to the outsiders. With their relationship increasingly forbidden, the struggle of knowing who to trust reveals that nothing is what it seems. As
Aly
encourages Noah to
investigate the legends he’d always written off as stories, they uncover the one thing their fathers can agree on: there’s something in the woods
