Arti Imagine

di Balik Gemerlap BSD Sasya Maharani adalah prototipe kesempurnaan di SMA Puncak BSD, sebuah institusi elite di jantung kota metropolitan. Dikenal sebagai "Si Gadis Es" karena fokusnya yang mutlak pada akademik dan masa depan cemerlang, hidup Sasya terencana rapi dan tanpa emosi yang mengganggu. Namun, ketenangan hidupnya terusik saat ia dipertemukan dengan Ardi Sanjaya, murid pindahan yang misterius dan dikelilingi rumor perkelahian di sudut-sudut BSD. Ardi, dengan tatapan liarnya dan kepolosan seorang anak, langsung mengklaim Sasya sebagai teman pertamanya, bahkan menyatakan cinta dengan lugas di tengah taman kota. Pertemuan tak terduga ini menarik Sasya ke dalam lingkaran pertemanan Ardi yang eksentrik, termasuk Nisa Adelia, si pecandu media sosial yang haus perhatian, dan Rizky Pratama (Kiki), atlet basket yang tenang. Di tengah hiruk pikuk BSD yang serba modern, Sasya mulai melihat sisi lain Ardi: kepolosan di balik citra berandal, kecerdasan tersembunyi yang mengancam posisinya sebagai murid teladan, dan hati yang rentan akibat masa lalu keluarganya yang kompleks, terutama hubungannya dengan sang kakak, Yudha Sanjaya. Seiring waktu, perasaan Sasya terhadap Ardi mulai tumbuh, memporak-porandakan logika dan rencana masa depannya. Di saat yang sama, Kenan Wijaya, putra konglomerat BSD yang karismatik, muncul dan terang-terangan menunjukkan ketertarikan pada Sasya, menciptakan persaingan sengit dengan Ardi. Sasya harus bergulat dengan perasaannya sendiri, memahami arti persahabatan, cinta, dan bagaimana menyeimbangkan ambisi akademisnya dengan gejolak hatinya. Novel ini akan mengikuti perjalanan Sasya dan Ardi—si kulkas berjalan dan si berandal—dalam menavigasi kompleksitas masa remaja, tekanan akademis, dan dinamika hubungan. Dari momen-momen kocak di foodcourt mal hingga percakapan serius di rooftop gedung-gedung tinggi BSD, mereka akan belajar untuk saling percaya, berkomunikasi, dan tumbuh menjadi pribadi yang lebih dewasa. Pada akhirnya, di tengah gemerlap dan kesibukan BSD City mereka akan menemukan bahwa cinta sejati seringkali hadir dalam bentuk yang paling tak terduga, mengubah peta kehidupan mereka dan membuka lembaran baru.

CRAVED is Book #10 in the #1 Bestselling series THE VAMPIRE JOURNALS, which begins with Book #1, TURNED!

In CRAVED, 16 year old Scarlet Paine struggles to find out exactly what she’s becoming. Her erratic behavior has alienated her new boyfriend, Blake, and she struggles to make amends, and to make him understand. But the problem is, she can barely understand herself what’s happening to her.

At the same time, the new boy in school, the mysterious Sage, comes into her life. Their paths keep intertwining, and although she tries to avoid it, he directly pursues her, despite the objections of her best friend, Maria, who has her own eyes set on Sage. Scarlet finds herself swept away by Sage, who takes her into his world, past the gates of his family’s historic river mansion. As their relationship deepens, she begins to learn more about his mysterious past, his family, and the secrets he must hold. They spend the most romantic time she can imagine, on a secluded island in the Hudson, and she is convinced she has found the true love of her life.

But then she is devastated to learn Sage’s biggest secret of all: he is not human, either, and he has only a few weeks left to live. Tragically, just at the moment when destiny has brought her greatest love, it also seems fated to tear them apart.

As Scarlet returns to the high school parties leading up to the big dance, she ends up in a huge falling-out with her friends, who excommunicate her from their group. At the same time, Vivian rounds up the popular girls to make her life hell, leading to an unavoidable confrontation. Scarlet’s forced to sneak out, making matters worse with her parents, and soon finds pressure building from all sides. The only light in her life is Sage. But he is still holding back some of his secrets, and Blake resurfaces, determined to pursue her.

Caitlin, meanwhile, is determined to find a way to reverse Scarlet’s vampirism. What she finds leads her on a journey to find the antidote, deep into the darkest corners of rare libraries and bookstores—and to an ancient discovery she can hardly imagine.

But it may be too late. Scarlet is changing rapidly, barely able to control what she’s becoming. She wants to be with Sage—but fate seems set on tearing them apart. As the book culminates in an action-packed and shocking twist, Scarlet will be left with a monumental choice—one that will change the world forever. How much is she willing to risk for love?
