Twelve-year-old Easter Ann Peters has a plan to make seventh grade awesome: Operation Cool. She’s determined to erase years of being known as the quiet, straight-A student who can’t think of a decent comeback to a bully she calls Horse Girl. When the confident new girl, Wreni, becomes her long-needed best friend, Easter lets her personality shine. The coolest guy in school takes a sudden interest. But as tough times at school fade away, so does a happy life at home. Mom is drinking, and Easter works double-overtime to keep their secret in the tiny lakeside town. Operation Cool derails. Fast. Can Easter discover the solution in time? Or will seventh grade be her worst year yet?

The protagonist’s struggles are well drawn and feel real… This is a solid choice for its realistic portrayal of middle school and a child’s struggle with an alcoholic parent.

Sneaking out at night, driving without a license, and falling for a guy weren’t things fifteen-year-old Jeni expected to do while visiting Lake Itasca, Minnesota with her family. The guy, Ice, turns out to be the local medicine man’s apprentice, and when he tells Jeni she’s connected to the spirit world, her first instinct is to run. But after Ice’s stories of a mythical underwater monster—that Jeni allegedly released—prove true, she realizes it’s up to her to contain the beast. Jeni must first convince herself that she’s able, and then save the locals, Ice, and ultimately herself.

…well-written and entertaining… Jeni makes for a likeable protagonist that readers will identify with.

– Publishers Weekly

…Pietron deftly juggles action, paranormal elements and a burgeoning romance between Jeni and Ice. Characterizations ring true: Jeni comes across as believable and attractive…

Decades ago, Edwina made an impulsive decision for which she has successfully avoided the consequences. Until now. A seemingly innocuous trip down memory lane with her daughter has thrown her into a life-altering quandary. Her next decision cannot be made on impulse, but none of the options can lead to any place she wants to be.

The narrator had me enthralled from beginning to end... don’t pick this up at bedtime, or you’ll be up all night.

– Amazon reader review

The suspense of what tidbit of information from her past would be unveiled next, had me reading nonstop until I was finished.
