Summary
from Goodreads:
Trina Clemons needed the money. Why else
would she-the most organized, prepared student in school-spend the summer as a
nanny and partner with the biggest slacker ever? Now she's ready to tackle
nannyhood with her big binder of research and schedules. Just don't ask her
about the secret job of "fixing" the bad habits of a certain high school
player…
Slade Edmunds prefers easy hook-ups, and Trina is definitely not his type. She's all structure and rules, while Slade wants to just have fun. Fortunately, Trina has no idea about the bet Slade made with his best friend that he can totally get her to unwind by the end of summer…
Then the weirdest thing happens. There's chemistry. A lot of it.
But nothing gets between a boy and a girl like a big, fat secret…

#1)
Release Date: 09/14/15
Entangled Crush
245 pages
Summary from Goodreads:
When life gives you a blank canvas, make
art.
Sloane Whitaker hates everything about moving to Texas. She hates leaving behind her friends and half her family in New York, starting over senior year at Austin's NextGen Academy, and having to say she lives in Texas. Most of all, she hates that it's all her fault. If she wants to earn her way back to the Big Apple, she has to prove she can still be the perfect daughter.
Which means no vandalism art, no trouble at school, and absolutely no Tru Dorsey, her serial screw-up neighbor, who loves nothing more than pushing her buttons.
But from the moment he vaults onto the roof outside her bedroom, there is something about him that makes her want to break every rule. Suddenly it' s not the ten things she hates about Tru that are at the top of her list. It's the ten reasons she doesn't want to be without him.

Virtual Tour: PICTURE ME, A MYSTERY by Amy Schisler @AmySchislerAuth @GoddessFish #Giveaway
PICTURE ME, A MYSTERY
by Amy Schisler
GENRE: mystery
BLURB:
Melissa
Grant has escaped the clutches of death, not once, not twice, but three times.
While she considers this to be divine intervention, her assailant is sure that
her luck will run out, and the authorities are suspicious that Melissa isn’t as
innocent as she seems. Implicated in the murders of two of her closest friends,
and running from both a hit man and the law, Melissa does what is thought to be
impossible in the 21st Century – she disappears. Julie Lawson has no family, no
friends, and no past. She spends her days photographing the country and her
nights tossing and turning as nightmares plague her sleep. While passing
through the town of St. Brendan, on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, Julie finds some
things she hasn’t had in a very long time – a home, friends, and love. For the
first time in two years, Julie can see her future, but she can attain it only
by surviving a predator from her past. Eric West has a past of his own that he
is trying to forget. His return to his hometown keeps his demons away until he
meets Julie, and she stirs up emotions in him that he hasn’t felt in a long
time. As he slowly begins to let go of this past, Eric tries to break down the
walls that Julie has so tightly built around herself. Gaining her trust one
small act at a time, and hiring the best investigator in DC to dig for answers,
Eric opens the Pandora’s Box to Julie’s past which threatens all of their
futures.

EXCERPT:
With her heart beating wildly, under
the cover of the loud music, she tiptoed toward the bedroom window where the
fire escape was. Praying that the man
would not turn toward the bedroom, she quietly raised the window while holding
her breath and praying it wouldn’t make a sound. Not daring to look back, she dropped herself
onto the landing, sucking in frigid air and almost choking as her feet hit the
icy metal.
Melissa flew down the fire escape
slipping and sliding on the smooth, glassy coating. Her bare foot slipped out from under her on
the last step sending her reeling back onto the stairs and hitting her head. Looking up, she saw the masked man lean out
of the window above her.
Melissa had no time to even check
her head for blood as she wrenched herself from the sidewalk and ran for her
life.
