Title: Masque of the Red Death (Masque of the Red Death #1)
Author: Bethany Griffin
Everything is in ruins.
A devastating plague has decimated the population. And those who are left live in fear of catching it as the city crumbles to pieces around them.
So what does Araby Worth have to live for?
Nights in the Debauchery Club, beautiful dresses, glittery make-up . . . and tantalizing ways to forget it all.
But in the depths of the club—in the depths of her own despair—Araby will find more than oblivion. She will find Will, the terribly handsome proprietor of the club. And Elliott, the wickedly smart aristocrat. Neither boy is what he seems. Both have secrets. Everyone does.
And Araby may find something not just to live for, but to fight for—no matter what it costs her.

Title: Unraveling
Author: Elizabeth Norris
Two days before the
start of her junior year, seventeen-year-old Janelle Tenner is hit by a
pickup truck and killed—as in blinding light, scenes of her life
flashing before her, and then nothing. Except the next thing she knows,
she's opening her eyes to find Ben Michaels, a loner from her high
school whom Janelle has never talked to, leaning over her. And even
though it isn't possible, she knows—with every fiber of her being—that
Ben has somehow brought her back to life.
But her revival, and Ben's possible role in it, is only the first of the puzzles that Janelle must solve. While snooping in her FBI agent father's files for clues about her accident, she uncovers a clock that seems to be counting down to something—but to what? And when someone close to Janelle is killed, she can no longer deny what's right in front of her: Everything that's happened—the accident, the murder, the countdown clock, Ben's sudden appearance in her life—points to the end of life as she knows it. And as the clock ticks down, she realizes that if she wants to put a stop to the end of the world, she's going to need to uncover Ben's secrets—and keep from falling in love with him in the process.
From debut author Elizabeth Norris comes this shattering novel of one girl's fight to save herself, her world, and the boy she never saw coming.

Title: Wishful Thinking (Time of Transition #3)
Author: Gabi Stevens
Free-spirited artist
Stormy Jones-Smythe was raised by two talented Wizard fathers but never
showed the slightest hint of magical abilities. Which is why she’s
totally surprised when three famous fairy godmothers show up at her door
to tell her she’s one of them.
Surprised, and none too happy. The godmothers are fugitives, framed for treason, and the last thing the magical Council wants is another fairy godmother going rogue. Hence Stormy’s new full-time Guard, Hunter Merrick.
Stormy quickly realizes she’s not going to escape Hunter’s watch…and before long, she’s not sure she wants to. But her freedom depends on her ability to expose the plot against the godmothers, and that means getting control of her magic. Despite the growing chemistry between them, Hunter is fiercely loyal to the Council—and duty-bound to keep Stormy from doing either of those things.
But he didn’t count on Stormy’s irrepressible exuberance and passion for life. Before long, even Hunter isn’t sure which side he’s on, and he can’t contain Stormy either way.

Title: Under a Vampire Moon (Argeneau #16)
Author: Lynsay Sands
Christian Notte's story,
the sixteenth book in the Argeneau series is set on an island paradise
called St. Lucia. After a bad relationship and an even worse divorce,
Carolyn decides to go on a long overdue and much needed vacation with
the 'girls'. Only the rest of the vacationers didn't get the memo.
Around every corner there seems to be another couple celebrating their
honeymoon or anniversary and the few single men she does see are far too
young to even consider, including an irresistibly attractive rock
violinist she meets. It's really too bad he's so young but in the end it
doesn't matter because according to his cousin, Giacinta, women in
general aren't Christian's type. But there's a catch, Christian needs
Carolyn's help. He needs her to be his beard (to play the part of his
fake girlfriend) for the week to appease his 'machismo' family. Carolyn
just can't seem to say No and decides to help Gia's cousin. The only
problem is that being around Christian and acting like they are a loving
couple is wreaking havoc on her emotions. Carolyn's thoughts keep
drifting back to places they shouldn't, like kissing his full lips or
feeling his broad shoulders under her fingertips... good lord, she's in
trouble.

Title: The Immortal Rules (Blood of Eden #1)
Author: Julie Kagawa
In a future world, Vampires reign. Humans are blood cattle. And one girl will search for the key to save humanity.
Allison Sekemoto survives in the Fringe, the outermost circle of a vampire city. By day, she and her crew scavenge for food. By night, any one of them could be eaten.
Some days, all that drives Allie is her hatred of them. The vampires who keep humans as blood cattle. Until the night Allie herself is attacked—and given the ultimate choice. Die… or become one of the monsters.
Faced with her own mortality, Allie becomes what she despises most. To survive, she must learn the rules of being immortal, including the most important: go long enough without human blood, and you will go mad.
Then Allie is forced to flee into the unknown, outside her city walls. There she joins a ragged band of humans who are seeking a legend—a possible cure to the disease that killed off most of humankind and created the rabids, the mindless creatures who threaten humans and vampires alike.
But it isn't easy to pass for human. Especially not around Zeke, who might see past the monster inside her. And Allie soon must decide what—and who—is worth dying for.
