A recent divorcee decides to go and look for the man in her dreams
- but is he the man of her dreams? Dianne, a woman in her early
thirties, finds out that her husband is having an affair with a
glamorous blonde. Supported by a fun-loving, hell-raising best
friend and a flamboyant mother who always sees the dark cloud
inside the silver lining, she tries to mend her broken heart by
following her own little path of self-destruction and
self-discovery.
Sometimes legends don't tell the whole story. After the sudden death of her boyfriend, Vera would have been happy to spend her life completely unnoticeable, washing bedsheets and cleaning toilets in a Glastonbury hotel. But everything changes when a strange new guest reveals himself to be Merlin and drags her back to seventh century Camelot, a place she knows only from legends. He tells her that only Vera (or Queen Guinevere, as Merlin calls her) can right the course of history and save Arthur' s kingdom from the will of a power-hungry mage. There' s one enormous problem: Guinevere was the sole witness to the curse that's now draining the kingdom of its magic, and Vera doesn't remember anything from that life. And with Camelot' s peace ebbing ever closer to shattering, she's running out of time. Working with Merlin' s magic to retrieve her long-lost memories brings more questions than answers: why is it that King Arthur, who treats his subjects with such benevolence, can' t even stand to look at her? And why does that make Vera' s soul feel like it' s splitting in two? What robbed her of her memories in the first place . . . and, most importantly, why? As Vera is about to discover, in a world of legend and power, the secrets of her memories are only the beginning . . .
THE EARL AND THE CORSAIR COUNTESS 1767 - The Straits of Gibraltar
Lady Katherine Kinloch, the notorious sea captain, refuses to let
anyone jeopardise her hard-won freedom; she survived captivity
once, but she couldn't do it again. Reluctantly returning to
England to claim her family's endangered estate for the sake of her
daughter, Katherine unknowingly rescues celebrated naval captain
James Warre...a powerful, virile man who represents the rigid
society she despises. Regretting his role in her past, James is
determined to be more than a ruthless, cold naval officer and will
add his support to her fight for her inheritance. Katherine and her
seduction are rapidly becoming his obsession. And the scorching
attraction between them masks a secret that could force the two of
them apart forever!
Jean Kennedy is a gentle, perceptive girl growing up in a very strange
world: suburban Dublin in the 1970s and '80s. In the company of her
mother, her Aunty Ida, and her little brother Baby John F., Jean
experiences love and joy. But home is not a safe place, and Jean is
unequal and unprotected. When she speaks just one small part of the
truth, she must quickly learn to navigate the dangers and possibilities
of a world she scarcely understands.
Jean’s hypnotic, unsparing and ultimately hopeful voice captures the
dreams and terrors of girlhood in a brutally hypocritical world, and
offers glimpses of a better life. Through it all, Jean’s voice pulsates
with insight and passion. Girl in the Making is a deeply moving,
propulsive coming-of-age story from a major new talent.
