Kelsie Stelting
An arranged marriage and a bad boy who breaks all of the rules...
My father's been planning my wedding day for longer than I have. Since I turned seventeen, he's sent me on date after date with people from the film industry–producers, directors, actors... I've dated–and turned down–them all.
But Ryde Alexander is the worst. He's vapid, self-obsessed, and it doesn't help that his sister
...2) Loving Skye
My junior year was a failure of epic proportions.
Like, they need to create a new grading scale for how badly it went.
Now I only have one year left of high school to plan for my future and hopefully have a little fun while doing it.
But life has other plans in the form of a surprise visit from my sister.
After months of silence, her news changes everything.
I
...I don't want to be another statistic.
After everything I've been through, I'm more focused than ever on healing myself and living the kind of life I want. But with my dad up for parole and Jon's athletic career over with a single injury, my dreams are turning into a nightmare.
I have so many questions. How can I heal when everything around me seems so broken? How can I live my life when the person who
...Emerson's first Pride Celebration is full of joy, love, and enough drama to last a lifetime.
Ever since coming out, Xi's parents have been her biggest cheerleaders, pushing her to join the Emerson Pride Association and making the community a better place for people like her. Now, she's got the huge responsibility of planning Emerson Academy's first ever inclusive prom to take place after the town's very first pride parade, even though she's
The strongest bodybuilder in Emerson isn't a match for my focus.
Emerson Dance is one of the most prestigious dance companies in the country. And I got kicked off the team right before nationals because my curves don't "fit." Not their idea of a perfect dancer's body and definitely not their costume.
I'm going to enter the competition on my own and show them that every body is a dancer's body. It will
...Someone's out to get me. I just don't know who.
It's been the craziest year of my life, and celebrating graduation with Jon just makes it all feel real. Like maybe I can have my happily ever after.
But then Grandma hands me a graduation card. And there's no address on it. No signature. Just six words from a complete stranger that turn my life upside down.
I'm supposed to be getting ready
...8) Chasing Skye
Best years of your life? Yeah right.
I was so excited to start my junior year. I've been practicing volleyball all summer and even lifting weights. Just when I thought all my hard work was going to pay off, the principal's daughter starts gunning for my position.
And my crush.
She's making my life miserable on and off the court, and her dad won't do anything to stop it.
I
...Could the hot boy next door ever fall for a curvy girl like me?
He's the popular kid at school with a perfect family and tons of friends. Meanwhile, I just moved in with my grandma because my parents got busted for selling prescription painkillers. Not the best way to start your senior year.
I'm determined to have a fresh start, make friends, and stop relying on food for comfort.
And the
...He bullied my sister. Now it's his turn to pay.
Ryker is the top of the Emerson Academy food chain, and he uses his power to remind everyone of just how powerless they are.
Until now.
When I see him picking on the most innocent girl in school for her weight, I snap. Ignoring him is no longer enough. No, my friends and I are going to make him pay.
He's going to go down
...Since when did Fabio not get the girl?
Fabio's named after the most popular romance cover model of all time, but he can't get his best friend to fall in love with him. Video games and Harry Potter movie marathons might be fun, but Fabio's going to have to do something big if he wants to get out of the friend zone.
Grace is ready for the adventure of a lifetime: a summer teaching english in China. For
...When my dog runs away on the beach and into the arms of a handsome surfer, I think I'm in luck. Until I realize said surfer is actually a grump who acts like he owns the ocean.
I want to forget the encounter ever happened and focus on helping care for my dad, who suffered a brain injury while in the military. But I'm out of luck. Jerk supreme, aka Diego, goes to my new school. And since we're in the same classes, I'll be seeing
What happens when the bad boy takes over the school advice column?
Nora
I have the perfect life.
At least, that's what my thug project partner thinks. He keeps saying I'm a privileged white girl who's never had to get her hands dirty, but with my dad running for governor, reputation is everything.
I can't let him - or anyone - know I'm drowning under the pressure. Which
...Brand new in the Curvy Girl Club!
There are two kinds of people in the world: Those who live in the limelight, and those allergic to attention. And somehow, they always find each other.
TERRELL
Terrell had his last basketball season at Emerson Academy all planned out. Step one, win the state championship. Step two, get recruited by the best colleges in the nation. Step three, play in college and then go pro.
But life had
...Our foreign exchange student is a prince.
A real-life prince. Like of a country. And he's not one of those ugly ones with big teeth that girls only like because he's royal. No, he's hot. On fire. I'm drooling just thinking about him.
But that's the problem, because the only reason my parents took him in is because they don't think there's any way a guy like him could crush on a girl like me.
I'm going to prove
Meeting pop sensation Jude Santiago might be the best thing for my singing career. And the worst thing for my heart.
Singing is my life, but no agency will sign me because of my size. They want me to lose weight. Dress differently. Be someone other than my size twenty self.
They want me to be like Jude Santiago with his perfectly fitted jeans and tight t-shirts and completely sell out. There's no way I'm going down that path,
He's in love with me. The only problem? He thinks I'm someone else.
I've spent my whole life trying not to get bullied. For my frizzy hair. My freckles. The white patches on my black skin or the gap in my teeth. Not to mention the extra hundred pounds I have on most of my classmates.
So when my soldier pen pal wants to see a picture of me, I freak. I send him a picture of one of the it girls at school
...Emerson Academy's star quarterback has six pack abs and a line of girls ready to date him while I spend more time alone in the art room than I ever do with people. But that's about to change.
The mean girl told me someone like him would never date a plus size girl, and my mouth spoke before my brain thought. I bet her I could get the star quarterback, Beckett Langley, to take me to homecoming. And he doesn't even
...It was all fake dating and games until my heart got involved...
I wanted to have the best summer ever. To have my first kiss and finally get my brother's best friend to notice me.
So I talked my best friend Carson into helping.
He'd do anything for me, and I'd do the same for him. But somewhere between fake dating and pretending to fall in love with him, I fell for real.
And
...I gave him three rules. Three impossible rules.
When I woke up in the hospital, fatherless and blind, falling in love was my last priority. No, I had to figure out how to live again. And deal with my heinous aunt. Plus her two daughters, aka the Terrible Two.
But
