My Wishful Thinking
WHAT WOULD YOU WISH FOR?
Birthday candles, dandelions, turkey bones or shooting stars-- seventeen-year-old Logan Carter never passes up a chance to make a wish. But there’s nothing magical about her life until the day a genie goes poof and promises to grant her every desire.
Can she finally bring her father home? Help her mother? Find true love?
It all seems possible—if she can figure out one little complication. She has to share the genie with her best friend Emily, and their desires only come true if they wish for and receive the exact same thing. It's time for Logan to compromise, because no two people--no matter how close--can agree on everything.

Glory
WHAT HAVE WE LOST WHEN NO ONE LOSES?
The New Texas Storm haven't won a game in two hundred years, because every game ends in a tie.
Following a worldwide pandemic and The Concord, which brought peace to a troubled post-apocalyptic world, winning was condemned as primitive behavior. Since then, citizens have been divided into two classes: a wealthy class who lives forever and a lower class of Temporals who just try to live.
Soccer player Ledger Dent has been offered an opportunity to join the wealthy Eternals, which seems to be a triumph until he meets an old coach and slowly begins to unravel why competition is unacceptable. It’s then that he realizes more than his personal glory hinges on a victory
