Sinopse

“What is grief, really? It’s just a love that refuses to die…”
 
Election fever has gripped the village of Little Bassington and the race for the Town Hall has intensified – with the fate of the Water Tower at stake.
 
But as ghosts of the past and shadows of the future loom large, victory is reserved for those who are willing to pay its price. When journalist Adam Chapman embarks upon a deal with the devil, librarian Victoria Kendall discovers that some choices are destined to be inescapable.
 
Meanwhile, the boundaries of love – both unconditional and unrequited – are put to the test. Feelings long buried are rising to the surface. Painful heartaches and disquieting realities look set to endure. A decades-old secret, long forgotten and left to gather dust, is discovered at Orchard House.
 
For one resident, the aftermath of their brightest morning is about to become their darkest night…
 
The second in Chris Vobe's five-volume epic, 'The Water Tower' is a raw and uncompromising tale of love, loyalty and allegiance, and offers a candid exploration of the way we deal with loss.

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.

Shared by the Alphas - A...

Scarlett Blackwood

It was supposed to be the best night of her life.

Selene Carter was ready for Prom but her supposed prince charming had abandoned her the second the bond with his true mate clicked into place. Now, she was nothing more than a forgotten shadow, surrounded by laughter and love she can't relate. She stood alone at the edge of the ballroom, humiliation sinking into her like ice-cold steel.

She didn’t belong here.

Until they walked in.

Kieran. Lucian. Jaxon.

The Triplet Alphas ruthless, untouchable, dangerous. They should’ve ignored her. She was nothing to them, a nobody. But the moment their eyes landed on her, everything changed.

A kiss under the mistletoe.

One touch. One kiss. And the world shattered.

She was supposed to be invisible. But now, they saw her. And they claimed her.

They took her innocence, stripped away the control she held over her own body, and reveled in the way she trembled beneath them. Their dominance was unrelenting. And they weren’t finished.

They wanted more.

They were obsessed with her sweetness, her purity her innocence.

But she doesn’t belong in their world. She’s not the kind of woman they should want. Yet, as the Blood Moon rises, and as dark secrets about her own hidden power unfold, Selene finds herself torn between the man-made world she’s always known and the dangerous, intoxicating world of the Triplet Alphas. A power that binds her to them in ways she never imagined.

And Selene? She’ll have to choose. The life she’s always known or the Alphas who’ll never let her go.

This stand-alone reverse harem romance is filled with raw passion, danger, and scorching MFMM scenes. HEA is

guaranteed but at what cost?
