Bella Notte by Jesse Kimmel-Freeman: “Vampires? Check. Werewolves? Check. Death prophecy to hang over your head? Double check. Seventeen year old Emma Hutchinson struggles to find her place in the world she has been born to as she tries to decide whether she should be with Michael, the boy she has been dreaming about since she was three or if she belongs with Dominic, her betrothed.” (November 2011)

The Codex File by Miles Etherton: “Forget everything you think you know about the internet. If you think nefarious web sites peddling a cocktail of scams, illegal pornography, racial hatred and vicious computer viruses was all you had to worry about – think again. The government has banned access to the internet, dubbing it an illegal, unregulated zone. Sounds good news doesn’t it, until you know that its replacement controls every aspect of your life, from digital content, provision of your gas, water and electricity, and all your money. With everything and everybody connected, we’re all now potential targets if we oppose it.” (December 2011)
