Hard Hit
by Ann Turner

Mark Warren has an inevitable life. He’s the star pitcher on his high school baseball team, with a new girlfriend, a best buddy, and even a decent family. But when Mark’s dad is diagnosed with cancer, suddenly everything Mark ever believed in- love, God, the future- is called into question, and he finds himself wishing he were in anyone’s shoes but his own.

Now Starring Vivian Leigh Reid- Diva in Training
by Yvonne Collins and Sandy Rideout

Moments after arriving in L.A., Vivian Leigh Reid is already questioning her decision to spend another summer with her mother, actress Annika Anderson. Last summer’s “family reunion” on a film set in Ireland may have turned out okay, but Annika is still a grade-A diva. Living in L.A. does have its upside. Leigh is taking classes at one of the city’s best acting schools, and she scores a role on a hot TV soap, Diamond Heights. Better yet, her cute Irish boyfriend is coming to visit. But Leigh soon finds that dealing with Annika is easy compared to navigating the shark-infested waters of Hollywood, where even a taste of fame quickly turns a girl’s head.

Rewind
by Jan Page

Time is a funny thing. Some people believe it only moves in one direction- forward. But others think Time is more fluid. Of course, no one really knows the answer. No one, that is until Liam has a terrible accident at a Battle of the Bands competition and suddenly, finds himself in the middle of his teenaged parents’ band rehearsal. Liam may have the opportunity to change the course of his parents’ history, but if he helps them along, will he cancel out his own existence? If only he could figure out how to use Time to his own advantage.

My Almost Epic Summer
by Adele Griffin

Irene’s got big dreams; someday she’ll own an exclusive salon in L.A. where her specialty will be recreating the hairstyles of famous literary heroines. And it’s a good thing she has dreams, since reality is harsh. She’s just been fired from her mom’s beauty salon for her tear-jerking shampooing technique and it forced to take the only other job she can find- babysitting. Now she’s stuck at the beach entertaining kids while everyone else is having a glamorous summer. Will she ever get a life? Then she meets Starla, a beautiful lifeguard, whose diva attitude, dangerous obsessions, male admirers and fiery blog hold enough real-life drama and romance to fill a book. Amidst the complicated friendships, inconvenient crushes and occupational mishaps that seem to define this summer, Irene suddenly finds that the countdown to real life is over and her fate is in her hands.

by Irene N. Watts

Thirteen-year-old Katie is an unwilling summer guest in the Victorian home of her Halifax grandparents. Disgruntled over her new stepmother’s pregnancy and how a baby might affect her life, Katie takes refuge in her attic bedroom. When she sees the shadow of an old-fashioned girl holding a flower on her bedroom wall, she tries to convince herself it is caused by moonlight. But the girl appears and shares her life with Katie, reaching across the years to a bygone time when British orphans were sent to Canada as Home Children. Is she a ghost?
