Sinopse

Cousin Fred leaned forward in his chair and stage-whispered, “She left the babies in the bed and ran off with a salesman.” So many questions went through my head. What could compel a woman of the 1860s to leave three young boys sleeping in their beds and flee with a stranger? Why did Fred have nothing to say about her husband, my great-grandfather? Where did she go and how did it work out for her?

The reason for Lydia’s shocking decision was lost to history for over 100 years—until I stumbled across her yellowed and tattered journals in my great-uncle’s trunk. Now the truth can be told.

    Three generations of heartbreak. One chance to heal old wounds. 
    “I never want to see you again!” Khrista didn’t believe her daughter when Kaelyn stormed out of her life five years ago. But every day since, Kaelyn’s angry words have echoed in Khrista’s mind, even as she tries to hide the truth from her chosen family—the community that raised her. Finding solace in her preschool classroom by day and her whisky by night, Khrista is forced to confront her pride and her problems when someone from her past brings news that threatens to drive her deeper into the danger zone. 
    Kaelyn loves the life she built—doting husband, dream home by the beach, and a baby on the way. But when her long-lost grandmother contacts her out of the blue, life feels off-kilter. She’s eager to have a blood relation to love, but meeting her grandmother again uncovers painful feelings about her own mother she keeps buried.  
    Estranged from her daughter and granddaughter for over twenty years, Daisy hasn’t had an easy life. But with the death of her abusive husband, she’s determined to start living. Step one: find her granddaughter, whom she hasn’t seen since Kaelyn was five. Maybe a reunion with Kaelyn will lead to mending fences with Khrista, too, and allow Daisy to rectify all the wrongs and fix everything before it’s too late. 
    Join the O’Donnell women on their quest for forgiveness and family and love.

    She was a temptation he couldn’t afford, but letting her go was not an option. 
    Marat was the face of Volkov Industries. With his movie star good looks, he attracted class and money to the multi-billion dollar corporation, not to mention all the right PR. But being born with the face of an angel had its disadvantages. Expected to entertain associates, Marat’s activities were anything but celestial. And yes, it was exhausting. 
    Sent on an errand to Sin City in the name of business, Marat needed a diversion. The curvy goddess serving drinks was exactly what this playboy billionaire craved. He was not looking for forever, but some temptations were too good to let go. 
    Destiny Valdez ran away to Vegas as a teen with her head full of dreams. A dozen years later, those dreams were dust. Pulling a double shift with her slimy boss giving her a hard time was not how she’d planned to spend her birthday.  
    But that was life. 
    She never expected a proposition from one of the most handsome men she’d ever seen. Daring her to take what she wanted, Marat Volkov presented the type of opportunity she only ever fantasized about. A night in his bed sounded exactly like what she needed. Waking up married? Not so much. 
    She thought he was playing, but keeping his curvy Dumplin’ was a wild temptation he could not resist.

    In a dingy shop near Seven Dials, an oddly luminous crystal egg captures the attention of its reluctant owner. What begins as a minor curiosity soon becomes a private marvel, revealing scenes that feel structured, distant, and profoundly real. 
    As the visions deepen, the crystal becomes more than an object. It turns into an escape, a comfort, and a silent companion. The world inside follows its own rules, unfolds with deliberate motion, and hints at an intelligence watching from the other side. 
    H. G. Wells was one of the founding voices of modern science fiction, blending scientific reasoning with bold imagination. His stories often explore humanity’s place in a larger universe shaped by forces beyond control. 
    Best known for works like The Time Machine and The War of the Worlds, Wells brought speculative fiction into everyday settings. With precision and restraint, he invited readers to consider how discovery can unsettle ordinary lives.
