Heartbreak river

Sixteen-year-old Alex feels responsible when her father dies while whitewater rafting, and when tragedy strikes again she must face her deepest fears in order to reclaim her love of the Colorado River where she grew up--and of the boy she grew up with.

How the light gets in

Since her sister's tragic death, seventeen-year-old Callie Ryan has basically given up. Her grades have plummeted, she's quit her swim team, and she barely recognizes the people her parents once were. When she returns to her aunt's run-down coastal Victorian one year after Chloe's death, Callie resigns herself to a summer of guilt and home renovations. She doesn't expect to be charmed by the tiny coastal town or by Tucker Morgan, a local boy brimming with sunshine. But even as her days begin to brighten, Callie's nights are crowded with chilling dreams, unanswered questions, and eerie phenomenon that have her convinced she's being haunted. Will Callie be able to figure out what her sister is trying to communicate before it's too late?.

With sirens in the distance and the lingering feeling that he's running from something--or someone--Donovan grabs the dead driver's briefcase and flees. Meanwhile, Bee is fighting for Dono's life every bit as much as he is. But when the police show up and hint that he is the prime suspect in a murder, Bee is determined to put together the pieces of what happened and clear his name"--OCLC.
