Stevie is eleven and loves reading and sea-creatures. She lives
with her mum, and she's been best friends with Andrew since
forever. Stevie's mum teases her that someday they'll get married,
but Stevie knows that won't ever happen. There's a girl at school
that she likes more. A lot more. Actually, she's a bit confused
about how much she likes her. It's nothing like the way she likes
Andrew. It makes her fizz inside. That's a new feeling, one she
doesn't understand. Stevie needs to find out if girls can like
girls - love them, even - but it's hard to get any information, and
she's too shy to ask out loud about it. But maybe she can find an
answer in a book. With the help of a librarian, Stevie finds
stories of girls loving girls, and builds up her courage to share
the truth with her mum. Written in accessible verse `chapters' and
in a warm and reassuring style, The Deepest Breath will be of
special relevance to young girls who are starting to realise that
they are attracted to other girls, but it is also a story for any
young reader with an open mind who wants to understand how people's
emotions affect their lives.

at happiness, the odds are firmly stacked against our heroes. Yet
with the power of love and strength, hope prevails. The result is a
richly purposeful and inspirational, tale where girl meets girl and
love faces adversity. Will Cinder and Ella find their happily ever
after?

Why get over your cheating ex when you can get even? John Tucker Must Die meets One of Us Is Lying in a gripping, page-turning debut thriller. His first mistake was underestimating them. Senior year is going to be perfect. Meghan won't settle for anything less. She's already crushing her classes and dating the star of the basketball team. Nate's friends have been less than welcoming, but it's never easy being one of the only Black kids at a mostly white prep school. Still, Meghan did not expect the scene at pep rally. Robin and Bria dated Nate too. Correction: are dating him. He never broke up with them, and Meghan is furious. When Nate is found bloodied and unconscious in the locker room after the big game, suddenly the three teens are prime suspects―and a tenuous alliance may be the only way to clear their names. Except Meghan doesn't remember everything that happened that night, and she's starting to have feelings for one of the exes. One thing is for sure: the more clues they uncover, the more Meghan, Bria, and Robin each look responsible…
When a girl overhears a guy getting verbally destroyed by his friends for being catfished, she jumps in to save the day—and pretends to be his online crush. A young adult romance from the critically acclaimed author of Places We've Never Been.
Wren is used to being called a control freak. She doesn’t care; sticking to the list of rules she created for herself helps her navigate life. But when a cute guy named Asher walks through the door of her neighborhood coffee shop, the rulebook goes out the window.
Asher is cute, charming . . . and being catfished by his online crush. So Wren makes an uncharacteristically impulsive decision—she pretends to be the girl he's waiting for to save him from embarrassment. Suddenly she’s fake-dating a boy she knows nothing about. And it’s . . . amazing.
It's not long before Asher has her breaking even more of her own rules. But will he forgive her when he finds out she's not who she says she is? Wren's not so sure. . . . After all, rules exist for a reason.
She's met her mate . . . and he's met his match. Megan Ross has
been waiting her whole life for her mate to come and sweep her off
her feet. But the wolf she meets on the beach is NOT the sweet
gentle boy she's been dreaming of. Instead, he's a warrior, one
whose suffering has led him to lock his heart away in a prison as
cold and hard as a diamond, who fights to resist the bond and their
deep sexual attraction. Far from home, with a soulmate who is still
a stranger, Megan learns that the path to true love isn't quite as
straight and easy as she thought . . .
