The QB Bad Boy and Meby Tay Marley

Reluctant cheerleader Dallas Bryan has a problem on her hands?and his

name is Drayton Lahey.

Ever since the hot star quarterback of the high school football team hit her car

with his motorcycle, he has the annoying ability to get under her skin, making

Dallas think about Drayton way more than she should . . . in all the ways that

she shouldn't.

But Dallas has one goal - to pursue her dance-school dreams in in California -

and no one, not even a hard-bodied, green-eyed football god, will stop her. As

the tension between Drayton and Dallas grows thicker, the lines are getting

blurred, and all she wants is to come undone under his touch.

But this thing between Dallas and Drayton could cost her her dreams . . . if he

doesn't break her heart first.

I'm a Gay Wizardby V.S. Santoni

You do magic once, and it sticks to you like glitter glue...

When Johnny and his best friend, Alison, pass their summer holidays dabbling

in magic, they never expect it to have consequences. Sure, it'd be great if they

could banish bullies or change their lives for the better, and what harm could

come from lighting a few candles and chanting a few spells? They get their

answer in the form of an earthquake unleashed at their behest, which draws

the attention of the Marduk Institute, an age-old organization dedicated to

fostering the talents of young wizards.

Whisked away to the institute and told they can never return to their old lives,

Johnny and Alison must quickly adapt to a new world shimmering with

monsters, fraternities, and cute boys like Hunter and Blake. But when they're

pulled into a dark, supernatural fight that could cost them their lives, they'll

have to find strength they never knew they had as they battle for love,

acceptance, and their own happy endings -- all with the help of a little bit of

magic.

Author Bio

V.S. Santoni is a Latinx, gay, nonbinary guy who spends way too much time

daydreaming. When he isn't thinking up queer dreampunk stories and

scouring YouTube for retro-anime movies, he's sobbing to sad, old punk

songs with his best friend, a Chihuahua named Darla. He lives in Nashville

with his husband. I'm a Gay Wizard is his first novel.

What Happened That Nightby Deanna Cameron

Griffin Tomlin is dead. And Clara's sister killed him . . .

Four months after the murder, the entire town of Shiloh is still in shock. For

Clara Porterfield, the normal world has crumbled around her in a million

chaotic pieces. Now Clara lives in a new reality, where her sister awaits trial

for murder, her mother obsessively digs in a dead, frozen garden, and her

father lives and breathes denial. At school, Clara is haunted by her

classmates' morbid curiosity - and all of the unspoken questions they won't

ask.

But none of them knows what she knows . . .

Now Clara's sister wants something from her - the one thing in all of this that

Clara isn't ready to face: the truth about what really happened that night.

Because this story didn't die with Griffin Tomlin. There's another story that

needs to be told. And sometimes, the lies we're told are nowhere near as

deadly as the lies we tell ourselves

Author Bio

Saving Everestby Sky Chase

From the outside, Everest has it all, but there's only one person who can

see him for who he truly is . . . and it changes his life forever.

In this tender, poignant debut novel by newcomer Sky Chase, two teenagers

on the cusp of adulthood learn to embrace life in ways neither of them ever

anticipated.

Everest is the most popular boy in school. He's handsome, wealthy, and

captain of the football team - he has the world at his fingertips, but he's

desperately unhappy. And when those feelings become too much to bear, he

tries to take his own life.

On the surface, Beverly's different from Everest in every possible way. She's

quiet, shy, hard working, and keeps to herself on campus, focusing on her

schoolwork and her part-time job, distracting herself from her less-than-perfect

upbringing.

When Everest returns to school after his attempt, he's in more pain than ever.

Discarded by his friends, he draws little empathy and too much attention from

those who surround him. But when Beverly and Everest meet unexpectedly in

a dusty corner of the old library, they discover together just how rich life can

be when given the freedom to just be yourself.

Author Bio

Sky Chase is a young author who grew up in the vibrant city of Pittsburgh,

Pennsylvania. She's been telling stories since before she could read, but

when she joined Wattpad, she found a safe place to create and a platform on

which she could advocate for mental health. When Sky's not writing, she can

be found counting the constellations from her window, scribbling song lyrics

on napkins, and visiting her local animal shelter. Saving Everest is her first

novel.

Cupid's Matchby Lauren Palphreyman

He's mythologically hot, a little bit wicked, and almost 100% immortal.

And he'll hit you right in the heart . . .

"Miss Black, we have a big problem."

Lila Black doesn't believe in matchmaking, let alone soul mates. So then why

is she constantly being hassled by the Cupids Matchmaking Service? But this

gilded, cherub-bedecked dating agency isn't exactly what it seems . . . and it's

about to turn Lila's entire world upside down.

It turns out that Cupids Matchmaking is the real deal. As in, it's run by actual

cupids -- who don't look at all like they do in the paintings -- and they have a

serious problem with Lila's "match." Because this guy shouldn't be in the

system. He shouldn't have a match. And while he's irresistibly hot, he's also

incredibly dangerous. Because Lila's true love match is Cupid. The original

bad boy of love. And he wants her.

Now Lila's once-normal teenaged world has exploded into a mythological

nightmare overrun by crime-lord sirens, wrathful cupid hit men, magic arrows

that cause no end of trouble, and a mischievous, not-so-angelic love god she

can't seem to stop herself from falling for . . .

Adored by 50 million readers on Wattpad, Lauren Palphreyman's smash-hit

book is now in print for the first time.

Trapezeby Leigh Ansell

How do you trust the ground when all you've known is flight?

In this breathtaking debut, Leigh Ansell has created a compelling,

heartbreaking, and truly engaging story about a young girl used to flying high

only to be faced with living life with her two feet firmly on the ground . . .

Seventeen-year-old Corey Ryder can't remember a time when she wasn't

gliding through the air of Cirque Mystique's big top. As a trapeze artist in a

traveling circus, Corey wakes up every day in a different place, buzzing for the

moment she can suspend gravity during the night's performance.

When the circus pulls into small-town Sherwood, California, everything seems

normal - aside from meeting the exceptionally cute Luke Everett at a local

diner. But that night, in the midst of the performance, tragedy strikes and

flames overtake the tent. While Corey narrowly escapes, in the ashes of the

circus pitch lies the only home she's ever known.

Repeatedly thrown out of her comfort zone, Corey must learn how to push

toward her future without forgetting her past, what it means to be a daughter

to a mother she's never known, and how to navigate the confusing magic of

first love, even as she performs the high-wire act of being true to who you

really are.

Author Bio

Leigh Ansell is the author of Trapeze, Human Error, and a number of other

titles on Wattpad. Since she began posting her works online at the age of

fifteen, she has accumulated over 130,000 followers and her stories have

and the Wattpad Prize for Best Love Story. She lives in Berkshire, England,

and has a day job in marketing.
