YA
Paisley is keeping a secret from her controlling mother: she's the drummer in a country rock band that's about to play at Texapalooza. When Gabe (a.k.a. Paradise) joins the band, Paisley falls hard for him. The story takes a devastating turn for the couple; romance-minded readers will likely need a few hankies on hand.

YA
Small-town girl Austin Gray joins the Future Farmers of America in an effort to win the Sweetheart of Prosper County pageant. Though the story deals with heavy issues (bullying, death of a parent, prejudice), the text is folksy (not overly so) and humorous. Readers will root for Austin as she follows her dream of becoming Sweetheart.
