From USA Today bestselling author Jillian Dodd comes the second book in the addictive Keatyn Chronicles series. Discover a breathless fairy-tale romance with swoon-worthy characters, suspense, and a glittering celebrity world.

Fans of Gossip Girl, Pretty Little Liars, and reality TV will devour this pulse-pounding, sexy teen drama set against the backdrop of Hollywood and an East Coast boarding school.

Keatyn’s always written scripts for her perfect life, but there’s no way she could have ever scripted this. Her life is so far from perfect, it’s not even funny—all because of a stalker. Now she’s at a boarding school, where she has to lie about who she is. She can’t see her family. She’s tutoring a hottie god that tortures her with his smile. The most popular girl already hates her. But there’s this boy. This hot, sweet, sexy boy.

So she decides to stop scripting her life and just live it. Because who knows how long she has left.

Northern California, during the violent end of the 1960s. At the start of summer, a lonely and thoughtful teenager, Evie Boyd, sees a group of girls in the park, and is immediately caught by their freedom, their careless dress, their dangerous aura of abandon.

Soon, Evie is in thrall to Suzanne, a mesmerizing older girl, and is drawn into the circle of a soon-to-be infamous cult and the man who is its charismatic leader. Hidden in the hills, their sprawling ranch is eerie and run down, but to Evie, it is exotic, thrilling, and charged—a place where she feels desperate to be accepted.

As she spends more time away from her mother and the rhythms of her daily life, and as her obsession with Suzanne intensifies, Evie does not realize she is coming closer and closer to unthinkable violence.

The Girls is a spellbinding and arresting coming-of-age story that paints an indelible portrait of girls, and the women they become, during a time when everything can go horribly wrong.

Thirteen-year-old Stewart is academically brilliant but socially clueless. Meanwhile, fourteen-year-old Ashley is the undisputed “It” girl in her class, but her grades are less than stellar.

Their worlds are about to collide when Stewart and his dad move in with Ashley and her mom. Stewart is trying to be 89.9 percent happy about the new arrangement, but Ashley is 110 percent horrified. She already has to hide the real reason her dad moved out, and now “Spewart” could further threaten her position at the top of the social ladder.

They are complete opposites. And yet, they have one thing in common: they—like everyone else—are made of molecules.

In this hilarious and deeply moving story, award-winning author Susin Nielsen has created two narrators who will steal your heart and make you laugh out loud.

Ana quiere plantar una milpa en su traspatio, en plena Ciudad de México. Pero en la tierra hay altos contenidos de plomo y la privada donde vive está plagada de ausencias. Su hermana murió, sus papás están de luto y sus hermanos de campamento; su única amiga se fue a buscar a quien la abandonó cuatro años atrás. Menos mal que queda Alfonso.

Alfonso es un antropólogo especializado en alimentación prehispánica. Es viudo y dueño de la privada Campanario. Él mismo la diseñó a partir de un esquema de la lengua humana y dio a las casas el nombre de cada uno de los cinco sabores que percibimos: Dulce, Salado, Amargo, Ácido y Umami.

En duelo, los habitantes de la privada desearían echar el tiempo atrás. Tejida al revés, esta novela se los permite. Mientras Ana remueve la tierra y clava las semillas, sus vecinos hurgan en el pasado. Pero el traspatio de la memoria está minado con preguntas: ¿Quién fue mi mujer? ¿Por qué se fue mi mamá? Y, ¿cómo es posible que se ahogara una niña que sabía nadar? Umami constituye una propuesta literaria original en su afán por explorar la amplia gama de sensaciones y emociones que el ser humano -en distintas etapas de la vida- experimenta.

Hace dos años, se conocieron cuando más se necesitaban y formaron el CLUB DE LOS INCOMPRENDIDOS. Sin embargo, algo ha cambiado y ahora ya no saben si pueden contar los unos con los otros.

Valeria no sabe si al dejarse llevar por lo que siente puede traicionar a su mejor amiga; Bruno escribe cartas de amor que no dan resultado; María es el patito feo que busca su sitio; Elísabet no está acostumbrada a que le digan que no; Raúl no quiere equivocarse esta vez, y a Ester le gustaría gritar su amor a los cuatro vientos.

Amores desbordantes, dudas existenciales, secretos inconfesables y mucha, mucha diversión.
