Welcome to the life of Taylor Blake: complicated crushes, awkward encounters and hoping for a first kiss! A hilarious and heartfelt new teen series that fans of Geek Girl and Jacqueline Wilson will love. 'A fresh, touching story for girls, with a great message' - Jacqueline Wilson Taylor is determined to be in control of her own life story - and it's going to be a romance! So far her entire social life consists of her two best friends Star and Lucy, who are also a couple and always together, plus her sometimes embarrassing but always hilarious Grandma and Grandad. But Taylor writes for the school newspaper, she creates fan-fiction and she's even been asked to enter a competition by her English teacher - surely she can script the perfect love story for herself? Her school is about to play host to some French exchange students. They'll be experts on this topic, Taylor reckons. After all, it must be called French kissing for a reason! The perfect first kiss is surely on the horizon. And Taylor can make it happen - can't she? This is Taylor's moment to LIVE, LAUGH, LOVE!

The best way to get over a crush? Simply get to know him better... Flo Greenberg: highly strung. Over-achiever. And currently on an enforced break from life after The Embarrassing Meltdown Incident That She Does Not Wish To Talk About, Thank You. Jamie Kramer: her brother's best friend. Pain in the arse. And somehow on Flo's family holiday to Greece. Flo and Jamie hate each other. Except, they don't. Flo has a secret. She actually has a mortifying crush on her mortal enemy, and nobody - absolutely nobody, least of all her bonkers family, and certainly not Jamie himself - can know. And so she has a plan. With two surprise weeks of sharing breakfast, lunch and dinner, boat trips and sun-loungers, Flo is going to have to remedy herself the only way she can think of: by spending time with him. Actually getting to know Jamie is the perfect cure for Flo's romantic feelings. Isn't it...? PRAISE FOR LAURA JANE WILLIAMS 'I can't remember the last time a book made me forget I had a phone.

'...a cult hit' - Grazia 'LJ's honesty and voice are unique in a crowded market' - Stylist 'If you've ever felt a little lost, I hope this book finds its way to you' - Daisy Buchanan 'Everyone is writing about sex. Some are even doing it. Haven't we all been waiting for someone to look at what happens when you opt out, and to do it with not only humour... but also true empowerment? Call off the search. At last, here she is' - The Guyliner When the man Laura Jane Williams thought she'd wed dumped her and married her friend, she was devastated. Empty. Drinking too much, sleeping around, and moving from place-to-place in a refusal to put down roots, she tried to fill the void - the gaping hole - that heartbreak had left behind. She wanted control. To grab life by the balls. To live boldly. But, she rapidly learned it wasn't that simple. Resolving that life couldn't go on as it was - that the backlog of men and sadness that haunted her would not define her - Laura declared a year-long vow of celibacy, ultimately finding herself in a Riviera convent as she slowly put pieces of herself back together. An honest exploration of a young woman's soul and a road trip through Italy, America, Paris and... Derby, BECOMING is a book that makes you laugh and makes you cry, but most of all? It makes you realise that even when the going gets tough, no one is really f*cking up like they think they are.
