Jump Into the Sky by Shelley Pearsall
Levi Battle's been left
behind all his life. His mother could sing like a bird and she flew
away like one, too. His father left him with his grandmother so he could
work as a traveling salesman—until Levi's grandmother left this world
entirely. Now Levi's staying with his Aunt Odella while his father is
serving in the U.S. Army. But it's 1945, and the war is nearly over, and
Aunt Odella decides it's time for Levi to do some leaving of his own.
Before he can blink, Levi finds himself on a train from Chicago to
Fayettville, North Carolina, where his father is currently
stationed—last they knew.

Destiny by Gillian Shields
Everything is connected. We weave in and out of one another's lives,
like circles within circles, and everything is for a purpose. Helen has
always been the "crazy" one among the girls of Wyldcliffe, scarred by
her bleak past and her troubled relationship with her mother, the former
headmistress and leader of the Wyldcliffe coven, Mrs. Hartle. But Miss
Scratton promised Helen that a love "beyond the confines of this world"
is waiting for her. Could this be Lynton, the mysterious music student
who visits Wyldcliffe for his lessons? And what about the brooch her
mother gave her-what can the Seal reveal about Helen's past and future?
Now that Miss Scratton is gone, life at Wyldcliffe takes an even darker
turn. An unexpected threat arrives in the form of a new high master,
whom Helen remembers from her unhappy childhood. Can Helen, Evie, and
Sarah finally overcome Wyldcliffe's darkness? Will Lady Agnes come to
their aid? And what sacrifices must they make to fulfill their destiny?
