The Road to You, book 2 of the Wildflower series by Alecia Whitaker
Bright lights...screaming fans...cute roadies...country music sensation Bird Barrett has officially arrived.
Next up on the road to stardom, Bird's heading out on tour. Between opening for one of the biggest acts in country music and meeting a passionate young photographer who's working as part of the backstage crew, the weeks pass by in an exciting blur. It might even be enough to distract Bird from the way things ended--or never quite started--with Adam Dean.
When the tour wraps, though, it's back to reality. The label is eager for a new hit song, but the sudden fame, complete with a media-fueled rivalry with another country music starlet, has Bird questioning her priorities. Before she can pour her heart into her music, she'll need to figure out where it truly lies.
Filled with sweet country music spirit, Wildflower is a series you just can't get out of your head.
All is Fair in Love and War, book 1 of the Rebel Mechanics series by Shanna Swendson
It's 1888, and seventeen-year-old Verity Newton lands a job in New York
as a governess to a wealthy leading family--but she quickly learns that
the family has big secrets. Magisters have always ruled the colonies,
but now an underground society of mechanics and engineers are developing
non-magical sources of power via steam engines that they hope will help
them gain freedom from British rule. The family Verity works for is
magister--but it seems like the children's young guardian uncle is
sympathetic to the rebel cause. As Verity falls for a charming rebel
inventor and agrees to become a spy, she also becomes more and more
enmeshed in the magister family's life. She soon realizes she's uniquely
positioned to advance the cause--but to do so, she'll have to reveal
her own dangerous secret.
Stone Rider by David Hofmeyr
In the vein of The Outsiders and the early Western novels of Elmore Leonard, this inventive debut novel, a cross between the cult classic Mad Max movie series and Cormac McCarthy’s The Road, blends adrenaline-fueled action with an improbable yet tender romance to offer a rich and vivid portrayal of misfits and loners forced together in their struggle for a better life.
Adam Stone wants freedom and peace. He wants a chance to escape Blackwater, the dust-bowl desert town he grew up in. Most of all, he wants the beautiful Sadie Blood. Alongside Sadie and the dangerous outsider Kane, Adam will ride the Blackwater Trail in a brutal race that will test them all, body and soul. Only the strongest will survive.
The prize? A one-way ticket to Sky-Base and unimaginable luxury.
And for a chance at this new life, Adam will risk everything.
Ruthless by Carolyn Lee Adams
A spine-tingling debut about the ultimate game of cat-and-mouse in
reverse as a teen struggles to retain hope—and her sanity—while on the
run from a cunning and determined killer.
Ruth Carver has always
competed like her life depends on it. Ambitious. Tough. Maybe even mean.
It’s no wonder people call her Ruthless.
When she wakes up with a
concussion in the bed of a moving pickup trick, she realizes she has
been entered into a contest she can’t afford to lose.
