Sinopse

Rebecca is a troubled teenager, not comfortable in the shoes of a good girl, she rebels to cover up her malaise. Alessia looks to the tarot cards “for something that would help her solve her enigma”, fill the void she has within. Anxiety torments Luigi, an apparently confident man, who is in fact rather lonely, and who finds comfort and relief in surrounding himself with thousands of books. In Jana’s eyes you can read her atavistic fear. They recount the intricate complexity of adapting to the social conventions typical of a small provincial town, on the borders of Italy. The delicate portrait of the elderly protagonist in “Alzheimer’s”, the drawer-full of memories in “Trieste” and the young broken life of Goran, all paint a portrait for the fragility of human relationships seeking, in love, the strength to fight illness and death. Will the reader, along this bumpy path, at times tortuous, at times easy, other times harsh, a metaphor for life itself, be able to find the deeper meaning, the common thread?

    After my boyfriend has a not-so-little accident with his new female best friend, I jump at the opportunity to take a small vacation with my brother to Salem for Halloween. He's annoyed, but his two best friends? Not so much. 
    Halloween and Salem speak to my soul. There's something about the thrill of being scared, the adrenaline that makes your heart pound while you fight your mind to stay in control. Then, once it's all over, the rush of wanting to do it again. 
    I'm drawn to horror and fear. Scary movies? Check. 
    Deep, dark fantasies? Check. 
    Being chased through the Halloween Witch Hunt by two shirtless, neon skull mask wearing men covered in blood? Check. 
    Maybe I'm sick and twisted. But there's a reason villains are often painted as hot, seductive men. 
    It's because women like me exist. And we want to scream in more ways than one.

    Cassandra Haslam loves plans. Lunch plans, wedding plans, and floor plans—they all bring her joy. In fact, she's had her entire life planned out—career, marriage, and family—since age ten. She's smart, hard-working, and a real go-getter, and everything has fallen into place so far. 
    Until her husband dies suddenly, right when she's about to enjoy the fruits of all of her hard work and planning, leaving Cass reeling and...well, without a plan. 
    When her youngest graduates three months later, making her an empty-nester as well as a widow, Cass decides it's time to make a new plan for herself. 
    It's not a back-up plan. 
    It's a paradise plan. 
    With one of her best friends now living in Hilton Head, Cass makes a move and purchases a piece of waterfront property on the island. It's the perfect place to build her paradisiacal life and her new self as she designs and constructs a beautiful beach house. 
    But when she injures herself—not in the plan, by the way—she meets general-contractor-turned-doctor Harrison Tate. He helps her out of a jammed thumb, a sprained ankle, and a bruised ego. 
    When he keeps showing up unannounced at her construction site, sometimes with her favorite pastries, Cass starts to wonder if she should add him to her daily routine... If she does, will her perfectly laid out plans fall short of paradise? Or could she find her new life and a new love, all without any plans at all?
