Discernment is my superpower. But how do I tell friend from frenemy when I’m the new girl? When surfer Lissa Mansfield transfers from Santa Barbara to posh Gloria Stanford Fremont Preparatory Academy in San Francisco, she figures joining the in-crowd will be easy. Popularity has never been a problem before. But now the obstacles are mounting up. There’s the queen bee, who is determined to keep Lissa a wannabe forever. There’s her new roommate, Gillian Chang, who’s as loud as a New York taxi about how happy she is to be a Christian. Her friend Kaz back home says he misses her, so why is he always talking about the girls he dates? If Lissa can just downplay her faith long enough to get the attention of Callum McCloud, the hottest guy she's ever seen, then none of this will matter. But when the price of being Callum’s lady means going all the way with him, Lissa has to decide exactly where the line is—and whether she’s prepared to cross it. Between that and finding a place on the committee for the biggest media event of the year ... who knew life at Glory Prep could be so complicated? “This book is so much fun. The characters are charming and right from the beginning I was pulling for Lissa to make the right choices.” —Trashionista.com

Jesslyn, her sister and former confidante, no longer has the time of day for her now that she'll be entering high school. Then there's her best friend, Frankie. Things have always been so easy with Frankie, and now suddenly they aren't. Maybe it's the new girl from the North that's got everyone out of sorts.

The girl who has everything is dating the handsome prince. What’s wrong with this picture? Shani Hanna has always felt like the poor little rich girl—she has everything she wants and almost nothing that she needs, like the attention of her globetrotting parents. But all that changes during senior year at Glory Prep. After an amazing summer in Santa Barbara, where she meets Danyel Johnstone, who might be the hottest guy on the planet, she returns to school happy and determined to keep a relationship alive, to say nothing of acing her grades and snagging a place at Harvard. But on her first day back, she meets a handsome prince—no, really! Prince Rashid of Amir is spending an exchange term at Glory Prep, and he only has eyes for Shani. Talk about an embarrassment of riches—Shani would give anything to see Danyel, but circumstances always seem to force her together with Rashid. What she doesn’t know is that her family and the prince’s go back a long way. In each generation, they’ve expanded their business interests through a tradition as ancient as it is inescapable ... and despite all her plans, Shani is the next in line. “What a fun read! Every little girl dreams of being a princess, but there’s a lot more to it than one might think.” —recording artist and Grammy nominee Jaci Velasquez

Home or school? Old or new? Family or friends? With Christmas—and finals—coming up fast, Mac can’t make up her mind where to spend her vacation. In Santa Barbara with Lissa and Shani? In London with her mother? Or in Scotland with her dad in the family castle, trying to reconnect with old friends who just might not fit her anymore? For Mac, the best way to allay her doubts is to organize something—like a family Christmas and even a traditional Hogmanay dance for New Year’s Eve. So she invites everyone—Lissa, Gillian, Carly, and Shani—to join her! And if she can get her mother involved, maybe her parents will see what a mistake they’ve made and realize they’re meant for each other. When they arrive they find the castle falling apart and the earl in denial about the family finances. Mac’s old friends hate her new ones. And a video has gone viral, forcing Shani to dodge men in black sent by the royal family of Amir. Can the girls find reasons to celebrate the season … and will a certain young man with an old crush on Lissa realize in time that Mac is really The One? There are tidings of great joy in the hills of Scotland … if only Mac can believe it’s all part of God’s plan for her … “A little romance, a little intrigue (how can you not have that in a castle?), and a whole lot of love among friends and family make this a delightfully festive read.” —Nights and Weekends

Be careful what you wish for ... It's the last term of junior year and Carly Aragon can't wait-because it means a chance to compete in the prestigious Design Your Dreams contest. For a budding clothing designer who's also a scholarship kid, this could mean the difference between launching a career ... or merely settling for a job. But an ugly surprise is waiting for her when she returns from spring break with her family in Mexico. The flamboyant, rich, and arrogant Lady Lindsay "Mac" MacPhail is her new roommate-and she proceeds to steal Carly's privacy, her confidence, and worst of all, her biggest crush! But when weird, threatening messages start infiltrating Mac's email, Carly is the only person she can turn to, and they must figure out what's going on before the threats escalate into real danger. Who could imagine that Mac's fate would rest in Carly's hands-or that Mac would hold the key to her success at Glory Prep? But God works in mysterious ways-even when it means digging deep to find the courage to face them.

In the historical development of many languages of the IE phylum the loss of inflectional morphology led to the development of a configurational syntax, where syntactic position marked syntactic role. The first of these configurations was the adposition (preposition or postposition), which developed out of the uninflected particle/preverbs in the older forms of IE, by forming fixed phrases with nominal elements, a pattern later followed in the development of a configurational NP (article + nominal) and VP (auxiliary + verbal). The authors follow this evolution through almost four thousand years of documentation in all twelve language families of the Indo-European phylum, noting the resemblances between the structure of the original IE case system and the systemic oppositions to be found in the sets of adpositions that replaced it. Quite apart from its theoretical analyses and proposals which in themselves amount to a new look at many traditional problems, this study has a value in the collected store of information on cases, and on adpositions and their usage. There is also a considerable store of etymological information that is relevant to the description of the systemic development.
