Alex Approximately
by: Jenn Bennett
In this delightfully charming teen spin on You’ve Got Mail, the one guy Bailey Rydell can’t stand is actually the boy of her dreams—she just doesn’t know it yet.
Classic movie buff Bailey “Mink” Rydell has spent half of her junior year falling for a sensitive film geek she only knows online as “Alex.” Two coasts separate them until she moves in with her dad, who lives in the same California surfing town as her online crush.
Faced with doubts (what if he’s a creep—or worse?), Bailey doesn’t tell Alex she’s moved to his hometown. Or that she’s landed a job at the local tourist trap, the oddball Cavern Palace Museum. Or that she’s being tormented daily by Porter Roth, a smart-alecky yet irritatingly hot museum security guard. But when Porter and Bailey are locked in the museum overnight, Bailey is forced to choose whether she should cling to a dreamy fantasy in Alex or take a risk on an imperfect reality with Porter. The choice is both simpler and more complicated than she realizes, because Porter Roth is hiding a secret of his own: Porter is Alex. Approximately.

Biggest Flirts
by: Jennifer Echols
Tia and Will’s lives get flipped upside down when they’re voted Yearbook’s Biggest Flirts in this sassy novel from the author of Endless Summer and The One That I Want.
Tia just wants to have fun. She’s worked hard to earn her reputation as the life of the party, and she’s ready for a carefree senior year of hanging out with friends and hooking up with cute boys. And her first order of business? New guy Will. She can’t get enough of his Midwestern accent and laidback swagger. As the sparks start to fly, Will wants to get serious. Tia’s seen how caring too much has left her sisters heartbroken, and she isn’t interested in commitment. But pushing Will away drives him into the arms of another girl. Tia tells herself it’s no big deal…until the yearbook elections are announced. Getting voted Biggest Flirts with Will is, well, awkward. They may just be friends, but their chemistry is beginning to jeopardize Will’s new relationship—and causing Tia to reconsider her true feelings. What started as a lighthearted fling is about to get very complicated…
Still Star-Crossed
by Melinda Taub
Romeo and Juliet are gone. Will love live on? Despite the
glooming peace that's settled on Verona after the recent tragedy, Montagues and
Capulets are brawling in the streets. Faced with more bloody battles, Prince
Escalus concludes that the only way to truly marry the fortunes of these two
families is to literally marry them together. Everyone is skeptical, but none
more so than the pair selected, for the most eligible Montague bachelor is
Benvolio, Romeo's best friend, still anguished by the loss of his companions,
and the chosen Capulet maid is Juliet's older cousin Rosaline, the girl Romeo
first loved and whose refusal of Romeo's affection paved the way for bloodshed.
Contrary to their late cousins, there's no love lost between Benvolio and
Rosaline, yet they forge a bond to end the renewed feud not only to escape their
forced betrothal, but to save their lives and the city of Verona
itself.
