Many generations ago, a mysterious cataclysm struck the world.
Governments collapsed and people scattered, to rebuild where they could.
A mutation, "the Change," arose, granting some people unique powers.
Though the area once called Los Angeles retains its cultural diversity,
its technological marvels have faded into legend. "Las Anclas" now
resembles a Wild West frontier town... where the Sheriff possesses
superhuman strength, the doctor can warp time to heal his patients, and
the distant ruins of an ancient city bristle with deadly crystalline
trees that take their jewel-like colors from the clothes of the people
they killed.
Teenage prospector Ross Juarez's best find ever - an
ancient book he doesn't know how to read - nearly costs him his life
when a bounty hunter is set on him to kill him and steal the book. Ross
barely makes it to Las Anclas, bringing with him a precious artifact, a
power no one has ever had before, and a whole lot of trouble.

Hero Complex ( Keaton School Novel )
70 years after Pearl Harbor drew the US into World War II, a sinister
secret--remnants of covert research done by the Army--haunts the Keaton
School.
Less than two months have passed since Devon Mackintosh uncovered the truth about the apparent suicide of Keaton's golden boy and her unrequited love, Hutch. But solving Hutch's murder has put all eyes on her in the small Keaton School community. When she is knocked unconscious on a New Year's Eve cruise, it's clear that her life is in danger, too. In the aftermath of the attack, Devon must attend a weekly meeting with Dr. Jocelyn Hsu, a shrink who refuses to believe Devon's account of the "accident."
With nowhere else to go, Devon turns to the only people she can trust: Hutch's terminally ill grandfather, Reed, and his heirs, Bodhi and Raven. Before Reed dies, he gives Devon a mysterious journal from his youth, revealing a secret pact among three powerful families. In the face of very real threats, Devon fights to unearth the truth Reed's enemies are still willing to kill for.

Like No Other
Devorah is a consummate good girl who has never challenged the ways of her strict Hasidic upbringing.
Jaxon is a fun-loving, book-smart nerd who has never been comfortable around girls (unless you count his four younger sisters).
They've spent their entire lives in Brooklyn, on opposite sides of the same street. Their paths never crossed . . . until one day, they did.
When a hurricane strikes the Northeast, the pair becomes stranded in an elevator together, where fate leaves them no choice but to make an otherwise risky connection.
Though their relation is strictly forbidden, Devorah and Jax arrange secret meetings and risk everything to be together. But how far can they go? Just how much are they willing to give up?
In the timeless tradition of "West Side Story" and "Crossing Delancey," this thoroughly modern take on romance will inspire laughter, tears, and the belief that love can happen when and where you least expect it.
