Cinder & Ella by Kelly Oram (Goodreads Author)
It’s been almost a year
since eighteen-year-old Ella Rodriguez was in a car accident that left
her crippled, scarred, and without a mother. After a very difficult
recovery, she’s been uprooted across the country and forced into the
custody of a father that abandoned her when she was a young child. If
Ella wants to escape her father’s home and her awful new stepfamily, she
must convince her doctors that she’s capable, both physically and
emotionally, of living on her own. The problem is, she’s not ready yet.
The only way she can think of to start healing is by reconnecting with
the one person left in the world who’s ever meant anything to her—her
anonymous Internet best friend, Cinder.

Hollywood sensation Brian Oliver has a reputation for being trouble. There’s major buzz around his performance in his upcoming film The Druid Prince, but his management team says he won’t make the transition from teen heartthrob to serious A-list actor unless he can prove he’s left his wild days behind and become a mature adult. In order to douse the flames on Brian’s bad-boy reputation, his management stages a fake engagement for him to his co-star Kaylee. Brian isn’t thrilled with the arrangement—or his fake fiancée—but decides he’ll suffer through it if it means he’ll get an Oscar nomination. Then a surprise email from an old Internet friend changes everything. (Blurb via Goodreads)
