Our Vengeful Souls
When Sereia overshadows brother and rightful heir, Triton, the position of next ruler of the sea is in question. Determined to keep his throne, Triton curses Sereia, banishing her from their underwater kingdom with a warning: if you ever return, you will become a monster.
Left for dead, Sereia washes up on the shores of Atlantis, discovered by a kind merchant with a tragic past. He earns her trust, but legends are powerful forces, and mermaids are burned for their magic. Searching for a way home, Sereia is forced to keep her true identity a secret, even as her feelings for her savior deepen.
Her skill with a blade finds her a place within the Atlantean army, earning her an enemy within their ranks. With a way back to the sea in her grasp, she wavers between the pull of revenge and the possibility of love on land. But when the fate of a friend is in the balance, she must make the hardest decision of all: be burned at the stake as a witch, or turn into a monster should she return to the sea.

How to Get Over Your (Best Friend's) Ex
Hannah Taylor believes she has found the perfect guy in Seth Linwood. They get on wonderfully, have a lot in common, and he is everything she ever wanted. Except for one thing. He is dating her best friend, Braelyn. Despite the fact that Hannah liked him first, her quiet nature and inability to admit her feelings aloud was no match for her confident and popular best friend. She pushes her feelings down, determined to stand by her friendship, and adhere to the rules of girl code. One rule of girl code in particular remains a constant reminder that no matter what happens, Seth will never be hers.
Because you never, ever, date your best friends ex.
Until the day that Seth ends his relationship with Braelyn, suddenly causing East Nashville High’s most popular girl to face with her first experience of ‘being dumped’. Watching Braelyn struggle, and knowing Seth is no more attainable to her now than he was before, Hannah decides that they both need to get over him. Compiling a set of steps to guide Braelyn through healing her broken heart, Hannah is convinced that the steps will also help her get over her crush once and for all. But when Seth admits to Hannah that she is the reason he ended things with Braelyn, she is suddenly faced with a difficult choice: Choose the boy who has stolen her heart, or stand by the friend who has been there through it all?
