Every so often, two people are born who are the perfect matches for each other. Soulmates. But while the odds of this happening are about as likely as being struck by lightning, when these people do meet and fall in love…thunderstorms, lightning strikes and lashings of rain are only the beginning of their problems.
Enter Poppy, the 17-year-old cynic with a serious addiction to banana milk, and Noah, the heart-throb guitarist; residents of mediocre Middletown, sometime students, and…soulmates.
After a chance meeting at a local band night, Poppy and Noah find themselves swept up in a whirlwind romance unlike anything they’ve ever experienced before. But with a secret international agency preparing to separate them, a trail of destruction rumbling in their wake, (and a looming psychology coursework deadline), they are left with an impossible choice between the end of the world, or a life without love…

Mais le jour où le prince Kai lui apporte son robot de compagnie – son seul ami -, le destin de Cinder prend un tour inattendu. La forte attirance qu’éprouvent le beau prince et la jeune cyborg n’a aucune chance de s’épanouir, surtout que le royaume est menacé par la terrible reine de la Lune !
Débute alors pour Cinder une aventure incroyable, où elle découvrira que le sort de l’humanité est peut-être entre ses mains.

Summary volume 1: This morning, Kady thought breaking up with Ezra was the hardest thing she’d have to do. This afternoon, her planet was invaded. The year is 2575, and two rival megacorporations are at war over a planet that’s little more than an ice-covered speck at the edge of the universe. Too bad nobody thought to warn the people living on it. With enemy fire raining down on them, Kady and Ezra—who are barely even talking to each other—are forced to fight their way onto an evacuating fleet, with an enemy warship in hot pursuit.
But their problems are just getting started. A deadly plague has broken out and is mutating, with terrifying results; the fleet’s AI, which should be protecting them, may actually be their enemy; and nobody in charge will say what’s really going on. As Kady hacks into a tangled web of data to find the truth, it’s clear only one person can help her bring it all to light: the ex-boyfriend she swore she’d never speak to again.

Résumé tome 1: Ce matin de 2575, lorsque Kady quitte Ezra, elle croit avoir vécu le pire moment de sa vie. L’après-midi, sa planète est attaquée par une entreprise interstellaire sans foi ni loi — BeiTech. Obligée de fuir, Kady embarque sur le vaisseau Hypatia, Ezra sur l’Alexander. Très vite, Kady soupçonne les autorités de leur cacher la vérité. Avec l’aide d’Ezra, elle pirate le réseau informatique de leur flotte, accédant ainsi à des données confidentielles qui mettent en cause leur propre état-major. Alors qu’ils sont toujours traqués par BeiTech, l’Intelligence Artificielle censée les protéger se met à agir d’une façon étrange…

Natasha is the most popular girl in school. So why was she pulled out of a freezing river after being dead for thirteen minutes? She doesn’t remember how she ended up in the icy water that night, but she does know this—it wasn’t an accident, and she wasn’t suicidal.
Now Natasha’s two closest friends, who are usually her loyal sidekicks, are acting strangely. Natasha turns to Becca, the best friend she dumped years before, to help her figure out the mystery.
At first Becca isn’t sure that she even wants to help Natasha. But as she is drawn back into Natasha’s orbit, Becca starts putting the pieces together. As an outsider, Becca believes she may be the only one who can uncover the truth…which is far more twisted than she ever imagined.

Becca, amie d’enfance délaissée de Natasha, se retrouve malgré elle prise dans l’engrenage de cette affaire et décide de mener sa propre enquête. Ce n’est que le début des drames et des soupçons qui vont s’abattre sur le lycée de Brackston…

Très vite, Grace comprend que cette violence s’exerce à tous les niveaux dans la ville de Prescott : quand les joueurs de l’équipe de foot notent le physique des filles qui passent devant eux ; quand son amie Rosina doit éviter les avances des clients du restaurant où elle travaille ; et surtout sur le blog du moment, « Les vrais mecs de Prescott » dont la ligne éditoriale consiste principalement à considérer les femmes comme des objets.
Grace, Erin et Rosina sont décidées à agir, mais elles ne peuvent le faire seules.
