Other Fiction: Love, Hollywood Style

Love, Hollywood Style

Premiering January 2008

True love doesn't always follow a script ...

Tracy Vance's love life is a total flop. Sure, she has a cool job as a tour guide at a real Hollywood movie studio, but when it comes to her personal life, she can barely get her crush, Connor, to even notice her.

Then Tracy gets a brilliant idea: why not win Connor's heart with some help from the big screen? Taking her cues from her favorite chick flicks, Tracy puts "Operation Ro Com" into action and it actually seems to work!

But Tracy soon realizes that getting the leading man isn't the same as keeping him. Maybe things never work out like they do in the movies - or do they?

Love, Hollywood Style ... A Romantic Comedy with plenty of drama!

First Kiss (Then Tell)

Cylin Busby

There's nothing like a first kiss!

Was it magical, momentous, and completely earth-shattering? Or was it sloppy and self-conscious? Cecil Castellucci realizes that bad boys can be good kissers. Lisa Papademetriou relives being a Texas girl at a Vermont summer camp-and one momentous night in the woods. Amy Kim Ganter draws her first kiss with her future husband in full comic-book form. And those are just a few of the many stories in First Kiss (Then Tell), a collection of anecdotes, poems, cartoons, and stories that are altogether hilarious, heartwarming, and memorable-just as a first kiss should be.

This unique collection features pieces from today’s hottest young-adult authors, and is packed with extras like kissing advice, trivia, and favorite quotes. First Kiss (Then Tell) will make readers want to relive their own magical moments all over again-or imagine what it might be like someday . . .
