Bad girls dont die. {ghost}
When Alexis's little sister Kasey becomes obsessed with an antique doll,
Alexis thinks she is just being her usual weird self. Things get
weirder, though, when their house starts changing. Doors open and close
by themselves; water boils on the unlit stove; and an unplugged air
conditioner blasts cold air. Kasey is changing, too. Her blue eyes go
green, she starts using old-fashioned language, and she forgets chunks
of time. Most disturbing of all is the dangerous new chip on Kasey's
shoulder. The formerly gentle child is gone, and the new Kasey is angry. Alexis is the only one who can stop her sister — but what if that green-eyed girl isn't even Kasey anymore?
From bad to cursed. *? {ghost}
Alexis is the last girl you'd expect to sell her soul. She already has
everything she needs—an adorable boyfriend, the perfect best friend, and
a little sister who’s finally recovering after being possessed by an
evil spirit.
Alexis is thrilled when her
sister joins a club: new friends are just what Kasey needs. It’s
strange, though, to see how fast the girls in the Sunshine Club go from
dorky and antisocial to gorgeous and popular. Then Alexis learns that
the girls have pledged an oath to a seemingly benevolent spirit named
Aralt. Worried that Kasey’s in over her head again, Alexis and her best
friend, Megan, decide to investigate by joining the club themselves.
Soon, Alexis trades in her pink hair and punky clothes for a mainstream
look, and finds herself reveling in her newfound elegance and success.
The club’s connection with Aralt
seems harmless, and before long, Alexis can hardly remember why she
joined in the first place.Surely it wasn’t to destroy Aralt. . . . Why
would she hurt someone who has given her so much, and asked for so
little in return?
As dead as it gets. {ghost}*?
It's been three months since Alexis helplessly
witnessed Lydia Small's violent death, and all she wants is for her life
to return to normal.
But normal people don’t see decaying bodies haunting photographs.
Normal people don’t have to deal with regular intrusions from Lydia’s
angry ghost, sometimes escalating to terrifying attacks.
At first, it seems that Lydia
wants revenge on Alexis alone. But a girl from school disappears one
night, and Alexis spots one of Lydia’s signature yellow roses lying on
the girl’s dresser the next day. Soon, it becomes clear that several of
Alexis’s friends are in danger, and that she's the only person who can
save them. But as she tries to intervene, Alexis realizes that her enemy
is a much more powerful ghost than she's ever faced before... and that
its fate is tied to hers in ways she couldn't possibly imagine.
Not even in her worst nightmares.

Once upon a time, Hudson knew
exactly what her future looked like. Then a betrayal changed her life

So when things start looking up
and she has another shot at her dreams, Hudson is equal parts hopeful
and terrified. Of course, this is also the moment a cute, sweet guy
walks into her life—and starts serving up some seriously mixed signals.
She’s got a lot on her plate, and for a girl who’s been burned before,
risking it all is easier said than done.
It’s time for Hudson to ask
herself what she really wants, and how much she’s willing to sacrifice
to get it. Because in a place where opportunities are fleeting, she
knows this chance may very well be her last....
