Guy's Girl

AN UNFORGETTABLE NEW LOVE STORY THAT WILL MAKE YOU CRY, BREAK YOUR HEART, AND PIECE IT BACK TOGETHER 
 
 ---- 
 
 
The boy who couldn't love and the girl who wouldn't. 
 
 
Ginny Murphy is a total guy's girl. She's always found friendships with boys easier to form and keep drama-free - as long as they don't fall for her, and she doesn't fall for them. She and her best guy friends have stuck to that. But then she meets Adrian Silvas, the only one who's ever made her crave more, and Ginny begins to question her own rules. 
 
Piece by piece, Ginny and Adrian begin to fall into something intoxicating, something dangerous. Ginny threatens to destroy the belief Adrian's held ever since witnessing his own mother's heartbreak: that love isn't worth the risk. For Ginny, the stakes could be even higher. Letting Adrian get close could mean exposing a secret she's long protected: her disordered eating. 
 
Ginny isn't looking to be saved by someone. But maybe she and Adrian can help each other - if they don't destroy each other first. 
 
Heartfelt and evocative, Guy's Girl is a powerful story about true love, self-love, and growing up.

Shadow of Souls Book 2

Heart of Mischief

PRE-ORDER NOW! Vampire Diaries meets Norse mythology in this sequel to Soul of Shadow from TikTok sensation Emma Noyes. 
------------------------------------ 
 
I will make myself strong. 
I will find Elias. 
I will kill Elias. 
I will never trust a boy with my heart again. 
 
These are the vows Charlie Hudson made the day after Elias Everhart betrayed her, nearly killing everyone she loves most. One month later, revenge is still her priority, even as she navigates a harsh new reality: one where her brother and friends can now see Asgard, making them just as susceptible to its dazzling delights - and deadly dangers - as she is. 
 
But when two bodies turn up in the forest outside town, and Elias waltzes back into her life with an offer to help find out what's happening, Charlie finds herself accepting his offer—but only because feigning an alliance is her best chance to figure out how to kill him. And if it feels like the more time she spends with him, the more her heart softens, it must be a trick of the unusually warm fall air. Because there’s no way she would make the grave mistake of falling for Elias Everhart twice… right?
