Masque of the Red Death by Bethany Griffin
Everything is in ruins.
A
devastating plague has decimated the population. And those who are left
live in fear of catching it as the city crumbles to pieces around them.
So what does Araby Worth have to live for?
Nights in the Debauchery Club, beautiful dresses, glittery make-up . . . and tantalizing ways to forget it all.
But
in the depths of the club—in the depths of her own despair—Araby will
find more than oblivion. She will find Will, the terribly handsome
proprietor of the club. And Elliott, the wickedly smart aristocrat.
Neither boy is what he seems. Both have secrets. Everyone does.
And Araby may find something not just to live for, but to fight for—no matter what it costs her.

blossoming romance with Matthew, whose father is leading the werewolf

forbidden love, Claire is struggling to feel comfortable in either skin.
With her lupine loyalty at odds with her human heart, she will make a
choice that will change her forever?
The Obsidian Blade by Pete Hautman
The first time his
father disappeared, Tucker Feye had just turned thirteen. The Reverend
Feye simply climbed on the roof to fix a shingle, let out a scream, and
vanished - only to walk up the driveway an hour later, looking older and
worn, with a strange girl named Lahlia in tow. In the months that
followed, Tucker watched his father grow distant and his once loving
mother slide into madness. But then both of his parents disappear.
Now
in the care of his wild Uncle Kosh, Tucker begins to suspect that the
disks of shimmering air he keeps seeing - one right on top of the roof -
hold the answer to restoring his family. And when he dares to step into
one, he's launched on a time-twisting journey- from a small
Midwestern town to a futuristic hospital run by digitally augmented
healers, from the death of an ancient prophet to a forest at the end of
time. Inevitably, Tucker's actions alter the past and future, changing
his world forever.
