Summary

"
""A moving and compelling tale exploring the heartbreak one impulsive lie can cause, breaking apart a family. Deft and confident, this book has it all: emotive and gripping in equal measure. Had to stop myself gulping it down in one go!"" Louise Mumford
An accident and a terrible lie by sixteen-year-old Angie tears her family apart and her younger sister, Lisa, being sent away. They don't speak for thirteen years, until their mother's death brings them together. Lisa quickly realises her sister is trapped in a dangerous marriage.
What does Lisa owe to the family that betrayed her? And if she tries to help, will she make things more dangerous for them all?
A powerful story of domestic violence, courage and forgiveness.
"Emotional, thought-provoking and highly recommended." Jan Baynham
"A masterclass in blending family dynamic - grief, empathy and blame mix into a glorious emotional canvas." Phil Rowlands

    Six years in the making. Six seconds from disaster… 
    At long last, the dream of a functioning research colony on Terradox has become reality. 
    Thousands of men, women and children now call the distant romosphere home, with experts in countless fields recruited from Earth to spearhead the most ambitious research projects ever devised. 
    All eyes fall on the closing stages of a colony-defining isolation test within Terradox’s least hospitable zone — the man-made hellscape of Little Venus, where six astronauts-in-training have survived fifty-one weeks surrounded by an almost impossibly hostile atmosphere. 
    But while the astronauts of tomorrow count down their final few days until freedom, the gravest threat of all might already be on the wrong side of their Isolation Kompound’s impenetrable walls…

    Brook's alpha-centric family doesn't respect him. He'll only succeed his father as CEO if he takes an alpha mate. But an alpha is the last thing he wants. 
     
     
     
    A paid mate seems like the ideal solution. The alpha can run interference with Brook's family, but Brook will be in charge. When he hires Dimitri, a rough-around-the-edges criminal who's deep in debt and desperate enough to take any job, Brook expects a transactional relationship. One night together to form the mate bond. Simple. 
     
     
     
    Dimitri's never been with another man, but how bad can it be? Even if Brook is a snobby rich dude, like his family. Only he isn't. He's funny, honorable, open-minded, and surprisingly vulnerable . . . and an unexpectedly willing lover. Dimitri's protective instincts are as aroused as his body. 
     
     
     
    Brook can't help responding to Dimitri's kindness, humor, and ability to take charge in bed and out—something that's never appealed to Brook until now. And that makes things anything but simple. 
     
     
     
    It's supposed to be a means to an end. A mutually beneficial arrangement. But for this to be anything more, they'll have to expose their family secrets and admit their real feelings . . . 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    She was the flower of an East End slum who rose to become a star. But Poppy Duveen quit the stage to marry Freddie Plummett, the only real gentleman she had ever known—the bounder who died. When Freddie died, Poppy was left the castle, but she was also left in the clutches of Freddie's formidable uncle, Hugo, the dazzling Duke of Guildham. 
    How could she admit, even to herself, this dangerous attraction? Instead, Poppy tried to turn her back on it—but it was no use. Clearly, Hugo thought her a mere waif, a common poor relation. Well, she'd show him and his snobbish family. She'd return to the stage as Poppy Plummett, conquer London, and make fools of them all!

    On a dismal evening in the previous century, an unnamed writer in Venice, California, answers a furious pounding at his beachfront bungalow door and again admits Constance Rattigan into his life. An aging, once-glamorous Hollywood star, Constance is running in fear from something she dares not acknowledge—and vanishes as suddenly as she appeared, leaving the narrator two macabre books: twin listings of the Tinseltown dead and soon to be dead, with Constance’s name included among them. And so begins an odyssey as dark as it is wondrous, as the writer sets off in a broken-down jalopy with his irascible sidekick Crumley to sift through the ashes of a bygone Hollywood—a graveyard of ghosts and secrets where each twisted road leads to grim shrines and shattered dreams … and, all too often, to death.
