Uses
for Boys by Erica Lorraine Scheidt
Anna remembers a time before boys, when she was little
and everything made sense. When she and her mom were a family, just the two of
them against the world. But now her mom is gone most of the time, chasing the
next marriage, bringing home the next stepfather. Anna is left on her own—until
she discovers that she can make boys her family. From Desmond to Joey, Todd to
Sam, Anna learns that if you give boys what they want, you can get what you
need. But the price is high—the other kids make fun of her; the girls call her
a slut. Anna's new friend, Toy, seems to have found a way around the
loneliness, but Toy has her own secrets that even Anna can't know.
Then
comes Sam. When Anna actually meets a boy who is more than just useful, whose
family eats dinner together, laughs, and tells stories, the truth about love
becomes clear. And she finally learns how it feels to have something to
lose—and something to offer. Real, shocking, uplifting, and stunningly lyrical, Uses for Boys is a story of breaking down and growing up.

No Mistletoe Required by Jeanette
Murray
Dan Beckins isn't sure how he let his best friend con him into
volunteering to build Santa's Winter Wonderland at the local hospital. He's got
no problems with charity work, but anything Christmas-related is off-limits
ever since he lost his parents on Christmas Day years ago. The only bright spot
is working with smoking-hot Anna Smith.

A little fling might be permissible, though, and sexy lawyer-turned-carpenter Dan seems like the perfect candidate. But when chemistry flares and the two start forming a real connection, will Anna run away before like turns to love?

no memory of his past. The only clue to his identity is the number forty
tattooed on his arm. Driven by a mission he doesn’t understand, Jase follows his
visions to those he’s meant to save. He is convinced that the fortieth person
he’s drawn to—a little girl named Macy Pearl—is the key to finally learning the
truth…
