Alex Light

A fun, flirty teen debut from Wattpad phenom Alex Light about a fake relationship and real love. It’s been years since seventeen-year-old Becca Hart believed in true love. But when her former best friend teases her for not having had a boyfriend, Becca impulsively pretends she’s been secretly seeing someone. Brett Wells has it all. As captain of the football team and one of the most popular guys in his school, he should have no problem finding someone to date, but he’s always been more focused on his future than who to bring to prom. When he overhears Becca’s lie, Brett decides to step in and be the mystery guy. It’s the perfect solution: he gets people off his back for not having a meaningful relationship and she can keep up the ruse that she’s got a boyfriend. Acting like the perfect couple isn’t easy, though, especially when you barely know the other person. But with Becca still picking up the pieces from when her world was blown apart years ago and Brett just barely holding his together now, they begin to realize they have more in common than they ever could have imagined. When the line between what is pretend and what is real begins to blur, they're forced to answer the question: Is this fake romance the realest thing in either of their lives?

The Upside of Falling

Eden had her best friend Katie--she didn't need anyone else. But then there was Truman. Katie's older brother, the artist. The recluse. The boy with the innocent smile and the dangerous eyes. Eden had never really known Truman--not until the night of Katie's accident. That was the night they'd finally let each other into their orbits--only to have the sky come crashing down on them. With Katie in the hospital and Truman fleeing from his grief without a word, Eden is left alone to grapple with her own pain. But when Truman returns to the city, can Eden let him back into her life knowing that their first kiss is what tore their world apart?

An urgent, enlightening and empowering guide to disavowing diet culture and learning to make peace with our bodies, from body confidence and anti-diet advocate, Alex Light.

When we look in the mirror, so many of us see a ‘before’ picture: the miserable person in the side-by-side shot waiting for the ‘glow-up’ (read: weight loss) that will bring true happiness. But it’s not our fault that we see our bodies as projects in need of constant work: this is just one of the beliefs that has been ingrained in us by diet culture. We have been taught to view ourselves as a collection of ‘problem’ areas for which the billion-dollar diet industry holds the solutions.

Step-by-step, You Are Not A Before Picture provides a framework for changing the way we view ourselves and the world around us. Working with experts in the fields of psychotherapy, fitness and nutrition, Alex empowers readers to interrogate their underlying beliefs, challenge the external and internal forces that are holding us back, and finally find freedom in our bodies, for good.

You Are Not a Before Picture

  Becca Hart este o adolescentă de 17 ani care nu a avut niciodată un iubit. Ei nu-i displace să fie singură, dar nu-i place deloc că prietena ei cea mai bună o tachinează mereu pe chestia asta. Așa că se pretinde ca este îndrăgostită, în secret, de cineva.

  Brett Wells are tot ce-și poate dori la vârsta lui. Este căpitanul echipei de fotbal și unul dintre cei mai populari tipi de la școală, așa că găsirea unei iubite n-ar trebui să reprezinte o problemă. Este foarte preocupat de viitor și nu de cine-l va însoți la balul de absolvire, așa că decide să devină misteriosul iubit al colegei sale.

  E soluția perfectă: el scapă de cei care îl bat la cap că nu iese cu nimeni, iar ea poate continua cu păcăleala. Dar să se prefacă a fi un cuplu perfect nu este chiar ușor, mai ales când abia se cunosc unul pe celălalt. Puțin câte puțin, cei doi încep să-și dea seama că au mai multe în comun decât și-au închipuit vreodată.

  La un moment dat granița dintre real și fals începe să se destrame, iar adolescenții sunt siliți să răspundă la întrebarea: nu cumva această iubire de probă e singurul lucru adevărat din viețile lor?
