One of my favorite types of romances to read in YA are friendships that turn into something more. While I love an insta-romance as much as the next person, relationships that start as a friendship are always so believable and heartfelt. Once I finish the book, I have no doubts that the couple will stay […]

When authors find that their ideas and writing styles vibe, the logical next step is to bring their creative genius together to create amazing works of literature.
