First Excerpt from Fire & Flood by Victoria Scott + Giveaway!

FIRE & FLOOD by Victoria Scott Scholastic, February 2014 First Excerpt Reveal I drove across the US of A, left my family without an explanation, and now I’ m either too late or there was never anything here to begin with. F my life. Rearing back, I kick the door as hard as I can. Then I wrap both hands around the door handles and release a noise like a wild banshee as I pull back. The doors swing open. I’ m not sure whether to celebrate or freak out. I decide to do neither and slip inside. As I walk around the inside of the museum, listening to the sound of my footsteps echo off the walls, I imagine I am moments from death. It’ s sad, I think, that this is all it takes to break my sanity. Two curling flights of stairs bow out from the first-floor lobby, and red and white tiles cover the floors. There are gilded picture frames everywhere. So many that I think the placement of the frames — and not their contents — is the real art. Everything, absolutely everything, smells like wax. I mosey up to an abandoned reception desk and leaf through the glossy pamphlets littering the surface. I hold one of the pamphlets up to my nose. Yep, wax. I glance around, having no idea what to look for. Will there be a sign like at school registration? Students with last names A–K this way? On my left, I […]

Coming Soon: One Tiny Lie (Ten Tiny Breaths #2) by K.A. Tucker

One Tiny Lie (Ten Tiny Breaths #2)by K.A. Tucker Release Date: June 11, 2013 Livie has always been the stable one of the two Cleary sisters, handling her parents’ tragic death and Kacey’s self-destructive phase with strength and maturity. But underneath that exterior is a little girl hanging onto the last words her father ever spoke to her. “Make me proud,” he had said. She promised she would…and she’ s done her best over the past seven years with every choice, with every word, with every action.Livie walks into Princeton with a solid plan, and she’ s dead set on delivering on it: Rock her classes, set herself up for medical school, and meet a good, respectable guy that she’ s going to someday marry. What isn’ t part of her plan are Jell-O shots, a lovable, party animal roommate she can’ t say ‘no’ to, and Ashton, the gorgeous captain of the men’ s rowing team. Definitely him. He’ s an arrogant ass who makes Livie’ s usually non-existent temper flare and everything she doesn’ t want in a guy. Worse, he’ s best friends and roommates with Connor, who happens to fits Livie’ s criteria perfectly. So why does she keep thinking about Ashton?As Livie finds herself facing mediocre grades, career aspirations she no longer thinks she can handle, and feelings for Ashton that she shouldn’ t have, she’ s forced to let go of her last promise to her father and, with it, the only identity that […]
