5. Tate & Miles from Ugly Love by Colleen HooverWhen Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she knows it isn’t love at first sight. They wouldn’t even go so far as to consider themselves friends. The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction.

Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her. (…)

But how do you escape when your pursuers can hear your every thought?

8. Ronan Lynch from The Raven Boys by Maggie StifvaterEvery year, Blue Sargent stands next to her clairvoyant mother as the soon-to-be dead walk past.

Blue has a policy of staying away from Aglionby boys. Known as Raven Boys, they can only mean trouble. But Blue is drawn to Gansey, in a way she can’t entirely explain. He is on a quest that has encompassed three other Raven Boys: Adam, the scholarship student who resents the privilege around him; Ronan, the fierce soul whose emotions range from anger to despair; and Noah, the taciturn watcher who notices many things but says very little.

9. Jonah Griggs from The Jellicoe Road by Melina MarchettaTaylor is leader of the boarders at the Jellicoe School. She has to keep the upper hand in the territory wars and deal with Jonah Griggs—the enigmatic leader of the cadets, and someone she thought she would never see again.

She needs to find out more, but this means confronting her own story, making sense of her strange, recurring dream, and finding her mother—who abandoned her on the Jellicoe Road.

10. Finn from All Our Yesterdays by Cristin TerrillWhat would you change?

She holds the proof: a list she has never seen before, written in her own hand. Each failed attempt in the past has led her to the same terrible present—imprisoned and tortured by a sadistic man called the doctor while war rages outside.(…)

After his favorite uncle was blown to bits on his way to work in a foreign city, Tom watched his family implode. He quit school and turned his back on his music and everyone that mattered, including the girl he can’t forget. Shooting for oblivion, he’s hit rock bottom, forced to live with his single, pregnant aunt, work at the Union pub with his former friends, and reckon with his grieving, alcoholic father. Tom’s in no shape to mend what’s broken. But what if no one else is either? An unflinching look at family, forgiveness, and the fierce inner workings of love and friendship, The Piper’s Son redefines what it means to go home again.

The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken
(Jen’s Choice – Review)

13. Skyler & Josh from I’ll Meet You There by Heather Demetrios Since I adore HEA’s more than HFN, I’d love to see what happens in the future!  It was emotionally intense and impossible to put down and such an important story and accurate portrayal of PTSD.
If seventeen-year-old Skylar Evans were a typical Creek View girl, her future would involve a double-wide trailer, a baby on her hip, and the graveyard shift at Taco Bell. But after graduation, the only thing standing between straightedge Skylar and art school are three minimum-wage months of summer. Skylar can taste the freedom—that is, until her mother loses her job and everything starts coming apart. Torn between her dreams and the people she loves, Skylar realizes everything she’s ever worked for is on the line.(…)

14. All of Them! from The Darkest Minds (The Darkest Minds #1) by Alexandra Bracken: Again another HFN that I’d love to know what happened!  I was glued to this page turner and the story was a collection of darkness, laughter and the fact that maybe we can never out run our fate. I will never forget this story for as long as I live.
When Ruby woke up on her tenth birthday, something about her had changed. Something alarming enough to make her parents lock her in the garage and call the police. Something that gets her sent to Thurmond, a brutal government “rehabilitation camp.” She might have survived the mysterious disease that’s killed most of America’s children, but she and the others have emerged with something far worse: frightening abilities they cannot control.(…)

15. All of Them! from Scarlet (Scarlet #1) by A.C. Gaughen: Sorry haha, but another HFN that I’d love to know what happened!  This was an adventurous series that was filled to the brim with excitement and hardships at many turns!
Posing as one of Robin Hood’s thieves to avoid the evil Lord Gisbourne, Scarlet has kept her identity secret from all of Nottinghamshire. Only Big John and Robin Hood know the truth-that the agile thief posing as a whip of a boy is actually a fearless young woman with a secret past. It’s getting harder to hide as Gisbourne’s camp seeks to find Scarlet and drive Robin Hood out of Nottinghamshire. (…)

16. You Know Who….. from Divergent (Divergent #1) by Veronica Roth: I’ve always wanted to know what happened after I closed that last page.  Especially after the final book broke my heart into a million little pieces.  I would love to look into that future and see more happiness and smiles.
One choice can transform you. Beatrice Prior’s society is divided into five factions—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). Beatrice must choose between staying with her Abnegation family and transferring factions. Her choice will shock her community and herself. But the newly christened Tris also has a secret, one she’s determined to keep hidden, because in this world, what makes you different makes you dangerous.
