Better Off Friends
Elizabeth Eulberg
For Macallan and Levi, it was friends at first sight. Everyone says guys and girls can’t be just friends, but these two are. They hang out after school, share tons of inside jokes, their families are super close, and Levi even starts dating one of Macallan’s friends. They are platonic and happy that way.
Eventually they realize they’re best friends—which wouldn’t be so bad if they didn’t keep getting in each other’s way. Guys won’t ask Macallan out because they think she’s with Levi, and Levi spends too much time joking around with Macallan, and maybe not enough time with his date. They can’t help but wonder . . . are they more than friends or are they better off without making it even more complicated?

Lizzie is happy about her friend's burgeoning romance but less than impressed by Charles's friend, Will Darcy, who's snobby and pretentious. Darcy doesn't seem to like Lizzie either, but she assumes it's because her family doesn't have money. Clearly, Will Darcy is a pompous jerk - so why does Lizzie find herself drawn to him anyway?

When eleven-year-old John Watson moves downstairs, Shelby finds something that’s eluded her up till now: a friend. Easy-going John isn’t sure of what to make of Shelby, but he soon finds himself her most-trusted (read: only) partner in a dog-napping case that'll take both their talents to crack.

There's no one better to crack the cipher than dynamic duo Shelby and Watson! But to gather information, Shelby decides that they'll have to go undercover . . . as an award-winning pair skating team.

Revenge of the Girl with the Great Personality
Elizabeth Eulberg
A hilarious new novel from Elizabeth Eulberg about taking the wall out of the wallflower so she can bloom.
Don't mess with a girl with a great personality!
Everybody loves Lexi. She's popular, smart, funny...but she's never been one of those girls, the pretty ones who get all the attention from guys. And on top of that, her seven-year-old sister, Mackenzie, is a terror in a tiara, and part of a pageant scene where she gets praised for her beauty (with the help of fake hair and tons of makeup).
Lexi's sick of it. She's sick of being the girl who hears about kisses instead of getting them. She's sick of being ignored by her longtime crush, Logan. She's sick of being taken for granted by her pageant-obsessed mom. And she's sick of having all her family's money wasted on a phony pursuit of perfection.
The time has come for Lexi to step out from the sidelines. Girls without great personalities aren't going to know what hit them. Because Lexi's going to play the beauty game - and she's in it to win it.

¿Y si quedamos como amigos?
Elizabeth Eulberg
¿Es posible que un chico y una chica sean sólo amigos? ¿O están siempre a una pelea de no volverse a hablar jamás y a un beso de distancia del verdadero amor?
Macallan y Levi se hicieron amigos desde el primer momento en que se vieron. Todo el mundo dice que los hombres y las mujeres no pueden ser sólo amigos, pero ellos dos lo son. Se quedan juntos al salir de la escuela, comparten un montón de bromas que sólo ellos entienden, sus familias son muy cercanas, y Levi, incluso, sale con una amiga de Macallan. Su relación es platónica y feliz de esa manera.
Con el tiempo ambos se dan cuenta de que no estaría nada mal ser los mejores amigos si no se interpusiera uno en el camino del otro. Sucede que los chicos no invitan a salir a Macallan porque piensan que anda con Levi, mientras él pasa demasiado tiempo bromeando con ella, y tal vez no lo suficiente con su novia. Entonces los demás no pueden dejar de preguntarse si ellos son más que amigos o si así nada más están mejor, sin complicar las cosas aún más.
En este ameno y divertido libro a dos voces se cuestionan las relaciones de amistad, la empatía y el verdadero amor, que van más allá de las convenciones sociales o de lo que los demás opinen.

She’s got her awesome girls to hang out with, she’s got her hilarious (and sometimes annoying) family, she’s working towards high grades to get into a great college–she’d never give up any of that to be with a boy.
But all of a sudden, the rules of the Club have changed and Penny’s not only allowed to date–she’s going out with Ryan Bauer, longtime friend, all-around amazing guy, and her best friend Diane’s ex-boyfriend. It’s not like Penny hasn’t been on plenty of first dates before, and it’s not like she hasn’t seen Ryan practically every day for years… so could someone please let the butterflies in her stomach know it’s okay to calm down?
A dos centímetros de ti
Elizabeth Eulberg
«Los chicos y las chicas pueden ser amigos. Yo solo digo que es perfectamente posible que un chico y una chica sean amigos. Nunca he entendido cuál es el problema. O sea, sí, hemos tenido que soportar un montón de preguntas estúpidas: "¿Estáis juntos?", "Pero algún rollo habréis tenido, ¿no?" Bueno, vale. Sea como sea, reconozco que no todo ha ido como la seda. Hemos tenido algún que otro problemilla. Vale, bastantes problemas. Pero mira cómo ha acabado todo. Cuando llegué al colegio, ambos dimos por supuesto que no volveríamos a intercambiar palabra después de aquel primer día. Sobre todo tú, porque enloqueciste por mí en cuanto me viste. Abundan los adjetivos para describirme: genial, fuerte, viril. ¿Quieres que siga?»
Digamos que Macallan y Levi fueron amigos a primera vista. Todo el mundo dice que chicos y chicas no pueden ser amigos de verdad, pero ellos lo son. Y mucho. Quedan después del instituto, comparten miles de chistes que solo ellos entienden, sus familias están superunidas. Levi y Macallan solo son amigos, y están felices así.
Pero, claro, los chicos no piden salir a Macallan porque piensan que está con Levi y Levi pasa tanto tiempo con ella que no le queda tiempo para sus novias. Así que un día comenzarán a preguntarse si no estarían mejor juntos. Aunque quizá eso complique demasiado su relación.

We Can Work It Out (The Lonely Hearts Club, #2)
Elizabeth Eulberg
When Penny Lane started The Lonely Hearts Club, the goal was simple: to show that girls didn’t need to define themselves by how guys look at them, and didn’t have to value boyfriends over everything else. Penny thought she’d be an outcast for life…but then the club became far more popular than she ever imagined it would be.
But what happens when the girl who never thought she’d date a good guy suddenly finds herself dating a great one? She doesn’t need a boyfriend… but she wants it to work out with this particular boyfriend. And he wants it to work out with her.
Only, things keep getting in the way. Feelings keep getting hurt. Words keep getting misunderstood.
Penny Lane worked hard to declare her independence. Now she needs to figure out what to do with it — and how to balance what she wants with what everyone else wants. In We Can Work It Out, Elizabeth Eulberg returns to the world of her first novel, The Lonely Hearts Club, and gets to the heart of how hard relationships can be… and why they are sometimes worth all the drama and comedy they create.
