Homecoming Queen

by Melody Carlson

With six teenage girls living under one roof, things are bound to get interesting. Mix six teenaged girls and one ’60s fashion icon (retired, of course) in an old Victorian-era boarding home. Add guys and dating, a little high-school angst, and throw in a Kate Spade bag or two … and you’ve got The Carter House Girls, Melody Carlson’s new chick lit series for young adults! The Carter House experiences a shake-up as one of its own returns home after an unnerving disappearing act. Then, friction grows as a school Homecoming Queen race heats up, turning friends and housemates against one another. DJ, Eliza, Taylor, Kriti, Rhiannon, and Casey show they have plenty of lessons to learn as the votes roll in. Some grow smarter and closer to God, while others seem to make the same mistakes over again. Despite all their differences and disagreements, the Carter House girls continue to grow together, forging a bond that strengthens through hardship. Hearts CAN change and friendship paves the way for at least one girl to move closer to God.

Hooked: New Science on How Casual Sex is Affecting our Children

by Joe S. Mcilhaney Freda Mckissic Bush

Through scientific data put in layman’s terms, this book demonstrates that: i) Sexual activity releases chemicals in the brain, creating emotional bonds between partners, ii) Breaking these bonds can cause depression and make it harder to bond with someone else in the future, iii) Chemicals released in the brain during sex can become addictive, and iv) The human brain is not fully developed until a person reaches their mid-20s. Until then, it is harder to make wise relationship decisions. This book will help parents and singles understand that “safe sex” isn't safe at all; that even if they are protected against STDs and pregnancy, they are still hurting themselves and their partner.

He takes up the gauntlet knowing full well he could be walking into a trap--with deadly consequences."It's certainly loads of fun." --Ellery Queen* An International Book Awards Finalists
