But her parents' dumb "Sixteen Rule" and their Latin beliefs force her to tell lies to just about everyone. Lucy attends summer school for one reason only... to meet a boy. When seventeen-year-old Evan Ellis catches her eye, she becomes obsessed with finding out as much as she can about him. She plots and schemes to gain his attention by wearing clothing and make-up her parents do not approve of. Lucy has never defied her parents. But, when her father's disapproval and lack of trust hinders her ability to keep her secret, ultimately she is faced with a difficult decision.

BETWEEN HEAVEN AND HELL, MAN AND DEMON, SHE’S ABOUT TO FACE THE ONE THING SHE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SURVIVE. Welcome to the world of Kara Gillian, a cop with a gift. Not only does she have the power of “othersight” to see what most people can’t even imagine, but she’s become the exclusive summoner of a demon lord. Or maybe it’s the other way around. The fact is, with two troublesome cases on her docket and a handsome FBI agent under her skin, Kara needs the help of sexy, insatiable Lord Rhyzkahl more than he needs her. Because these two victims, linked by suspicious coincidence, haven’t just been murdered. Something has eaten their souls. It’s a case with roots in the arcane, but whose evil has flowered among the rich, powerful, and corrupt in Beaulac, Louisiana. And as the killings continue, Kara soon realizes how much there’s still to learn about demons, men, and things that kill in the night—and how little time she has to learn it.
In his heart he felt he had tried everything to avoid this end, but to no avail. Why is the post office so different from other companies? He remembered a statement that a former carrier had made. 'You know, I've worked in a lot of places where they discourage personal initiative, but this is the first place I've seen where they punish you for it ' In the small Texas town of Decatur, rural mail carrier Roderick "Roddy" Tolbert is determined to change the tense relationship between the post office managers and the rural mail carriers. He becomes the local union representative, but soon learns that he may have bitten off more than he can chew. Postmaster John Thompson and operations manager Juan Gonzales constantly harass the rural carriers, creating a hotbed of anger and resentment. As Roddy struggles to find some type of resolution, he fears that some of the employees see violence as the only answer. After careful consideration, he confronts Thompson and Gonzales with his concerns, only to be accused of being a "dangerous influence." After they threaten him with disciplinary action, Roddy discovers just how corrupt Thompson and Gonzales have become, and admits defeat.
Coming of age in 1962 was tricky for a gay teen. With comical twists of fate, Julian more than meets the challenges. Though his first date ended awkwardly, the dance was a huge success; he and his date were honored as the best L'il Abner and Daisy Mae at the Sadie Hawkins Day Dance. Thanks to the costume and his natural good looks, her flamboyant embrace and kiss in the spotlight made him look like a movie star. He was invited to have lunch with some of her friends, where his talent as a portrait artist was discovered, instantly doubling his popularity. His new friend Randall has become a sidekick; his photographic skills soon add to the mix. Their friendship is developed and explored, and supports his rapidly developing artistic skill. Several scout friends activities are followed; stories begun the previous summer are developed as companion story lines, making this segment of Julian's saga interwoven and antiphonal-at times more emotional. Julian's innate ability to accept and relate to people of all ages, regardless of sex, orientation, or race, is discovered and put into use. That, combined with his artistic growth, is the primary story; those elements get his attention and focus while he waits impatiently to "come of age." His goal has remained fixed and constant from the evening he met Mark two years ago. New characters emerge and several from previous books reappear; Julian is a part of their growth. Humorous scenes with some farcical elements mingle with a few sentimental moments and surprises; for those that expect completeness, a little spice. Most of all, it is meant to be fun, leave you with a smile on your face and a good memory for your own scrapbook. It is not a quick read, but a fun place to be without having to worry about wearing a mask. The usual back of the book companions are present-a glossary for those too young to know what it was like in 1962, and an index of names and places to help keep track of the whos and wheres.
"Ever since I first heard that Lionel Richie and Diana Ross song, 'Endless Love,' all I've wanted is to find The One. Someone to love. Who will love me back." September, 1982. John Cougar's "Jack and Diane" is on endless radio rotation, and Dallas and Dynasty rule the ratings. Jack Paterno is a straight-A student living in the Detroit suburb of Hazel Park, with his own Atari 5200, a Beta VCR, and everything a seventh-grader could ask for. The only thing he has in common with foul-mouthed Brad Dayton, who lives on the gritty south side near 8 Mile, is that both are in Varsity Band. Or maybe that's not the only thing. Because Jack is discovering that while hanging around with girls in elementary school was perfectly acceptable, having lots of girl friends (as opposed to girlfriends) now is getting him and Brad labeled as Band Fags. And Jack is no fag. Is he? As Jack and Brad make their way through junior high and then through Hazel Park High School, their friendship grows deeper and more complicated. From stealing furtive glances at Playgirl to discussing which celebrities might be like that, from navigating school cliques to dealing with crushes on girls and guys alike, Jack is trying to figure out who and what he is. He wants to find real, endless love, but he also wants to be popular and "normal." But, as Brad points out, this is real life--not a John Hughes movie. And sooner or later, Jack will have to choose. Filled with biting wit and pitch-perfect observations, Band Fags is an exhilarating novel about lust and love, about the friendships that define and sometimes confine us, and about coming of age and coming to terms with the end of innocence and the beginning of something terrifying, thrilling, and completely unpredictable.
