Deadwood by Kell Andrews (Pugalicious Press, December 2012)

Twelve-year-old Army brat Martin Cruz hates his rotten new town. Then he gets a message from a tree telling him it’s cursed — and so is he. It’s not just any tree. It’s the Spirit Tree, the ancient beech the high school football team carves to commemorate the home opener. And every year they lose.

But the curse is no game, and it's about to get worse.

Amarok by Angela Townsend (Spencer Hill Press, November 2012)

Emma’s life has been hell since she moved from sunny California to a remote Alaskan town. Abandoned by her father and living with the guilt of causing her mother’s death, she makes a desperate dash for freedom from her abusive stepfather. But when her car skids off the icy road, her planned escape leads to further captivity in a world beyond her imagining.

Dragged across the tundra by an evil mountain man and his enormous black wolf, she learns that love can be found in the most unexpected places. Amarok, as she’s nicknamed the wolf, is a young man from the gold-rush era enslaved by an ancient shaman. Emma’s gentle touch and kind heart win his love and devotion. When a vicious madman—trapped in bear form by the same Shaman—attacks the travelers and injures Amarok, Emma must find the strength to face her fears and free the wolf she’s come to love. But that means she must face down the evil shaman, a Siberian mammoth hunter from the ice age, and he has no intention of giving up his power to her.

To Trust a Thief by Michelle McLean (Jan 2013 Entangled Scandalous):

Minuette Sinclair thought her biggest problem was getting out of her aunt’s finishing school as a proper Victorian lady. But now she’s pretending to be engaged and her fake fiancĂ© is in debt up to his neck. What's more, her father is in a Caribbean jail, falsely accused of murder. A legendary lost necklace might be their salvation and Min is determined to find it.

But master thief Bryant Westley is after the necklace too and has every intention of seducing his quirky and beautiful competition. He offers to partner up in the search - even though Min is a distraction he can't afford. Min can’t refuse Bryant’s offer either – even when she realizes she's fallen in love with Bryant. Bryant fears he can't double cross the young lady he's come to love. Can they find the necklace together and admit their love before it's too late?

Six rare and fading powers govern the land of Adamah. Possessing one demands entrance to the king’s army. To refuse means a traitorous death.

In a land where a few privileged youth come into one of the six extraordinary and often-feared abilities called Shays, Nolan Trividar hides his own flawless accuracy, the Shay of Precision, behind the guise of a scribe. He teams up with a deserter from the king’s army and a hot-headed young fighter in order to resist an ageless king who has deceived the people for centuries. To save their land, they must defeat the king and his elite Shay-empowered army before an enveloping cloud of darkness chokes out the Shays which define them.
