Everlasting by Elizabeth Chandler (Contains Affiliate Link)
Ivy should be ecstatic that her formerly dead boyfriend Tristan is back
on earth with her, but the life of a fallen angel is never easy. Tristan
has been cast down in the body of a murderer, and the police are after
him. Now, there’s only one way that he and Ivy can be together: They
must clear him of the murder.
But when it becomes clear that
there are darker forces at work—that Tristan and Ivy are still paying
the price for Ivy’s miraculous survival of the car crash—the
star-crossed lovers have more at stake than ever before. And one of them
may not be alive much longer.... (From Amazon.com product listing)

Cover-Up; Mystery at the Super Bowl
Cover-Up; Mystery at the Super Bowl by John Feinstein (Affiliate link included)
"We're a little more than forty-eight hours from kickoff and not even close to having enough proof to write this story. As of this moment, the bad guys win, the cheaters get to play, and Meeker gets away with his cover-up..." (from back jacket)
"The Super Bowl. America's biggest sports spectacle. More than ninety-five million fans will be watching.
"But Steve Thomas and Susan Carol Anderson know that what they'll be watching is a lie. They know that the entire offensive line of the California Dreams have failed their doping tests and shouldn't be allowed to play. They know that the Dreams' owner is trying to cover up the test results until after the game. They know that they are sitting on the biggest sports scandal of the decade.
"What they don't know - yet - is how to prove it.
These two fourteen-year-old reporters have broken big stories before. In fact, their past successes have made them a little bit famous. But nothing prepares you for the sheer size of the Super Bowl. The players are huge. The hype is overwhelming. The ego are gigantic. And the money? Astronomical. So a Super Bowl scandal is by far the biggest story Steve and Susan Carol have tried to tackle -- with the biggest opponents lining up to take them down." (from inside dust jacket)
Roughly a 5th/6th grade reading level.
