Hi Joy!
HE'LL BE WAITING:
What would you do to remember? What would you give to forget?
When Tess Porter agrees to pick up her boyfriend's college pal at the airport on a snowy December night, she has no idea she's about to embark on the most dangerous ride of her life. Two days later, the 17-year-old wakes up in a hospital with broken bones, unable to remember how she got there. Her parents are acting strange, and neither James, her boyfriend, nor her best friend, Izzy, has visited. As she struggles to physically recover, Tess wrestles with haunting questions: What happened? Will her memory ever return? And what if she's better off not recalling any of it?

EAGLEBAIT
14-year-old Wardy Spinks, overweight, un-athletic and bespectacled, is bullied at Evanston High School. Wardy is a multi-faceted character whose woes resonate with teens and 'tweens. The theme of building self-esteem is appropriate for YA readers. Brilliant, but socially awkward and friendless, and struggling with a dysfunctional family, Wardy faces down school bullies with help from his grandmother and recognition from his teacher-mentor. Though he hates school and earns terrible grades, he's building a laser in his secretive basement workroom. Hoping for romance with his shy but pretty lab partner, Wardy slowly works his way toward self-acceptance, realizing he doesn't have to be a loser for life. Fast-paced and filled with twists and turns, EAGLEBAIT appeals both to young adult readers and their parents, teachers and counselors.
