In this compelling novel from No. 1 bestselling author Danielle
Steel, a gifted young woman must grapple with the legacy of a
troubled childhood in order to pursue her dreams. When destiny
shines the spotlight on you, do you stay . . . or run? Antonia
Adams is the product of a loveless marriage between a beautiful
young model and a wealthy entrepreneur. As a child, she is
abandoned in the chasm between them. Unprotected and unloved, she
learns that the only way to feel safe is to draw as little
attention as possible, to be invisible. In her isolation, films are
her escape, and she dreams of one day becoming a screenwriter.
During a summer job at a Hollywood studio, she meets a famous
filmmaker, and is invisible no longer. He wants to put her in a
movie and make her a star. It is a dazzling opportunity but a
terrifying one. Suddenly she is thrust into the public eye - even
more so when they fall in love. Antonia never lets go of her true
dream of becoming a filmmaker, but to make that leap she will have
to expose herself in ways she never has before. When tragedy
strikes, she must decide whether she will remain center stage or
retreat to safety once more. Will she face her demons, or run and
hide? In this extraordinary novel, Danielle Steel tells the story
of a woman who must decide the price of pursuing her passion, and
whether it is possible to stay true to herself while she does.

'We were perfect together. Until we met.' I can't help but smile at
the lyrics in her letter. She misses me. In fifth grade, my teacher
set us up with pen pals from a different school. Thinking I was a
girl, with a name like Misha, the other teacher paired me up with
her student, Ryen. My teacher, believing Ryen was a boy like me,
agreed. It didn't take long for us to figure out the mistake. And
in no time at all, we were arguing about everything. The best
take-out pizza. Android vs. iPhone. Whether or not Eminem is the
greatest rapper ever... And that was the start. For the next seven
years, it was us. Her letters are always on black paper with silver
writing. Sometimes there's one a week or three in a day, but I need
them. She's the only one who keeps me on track, talks me down, and
accepts everything I am. We only had three rules. No social media,
no phone numbers, no pictures. We had a good thing going. Why ruin
it? Until I run across a photo of a girl online. Name's Ryen, loves
Gallo's pizza, and worships her iPhone. What are the chances? F*ck
it. I need to meet her. I just don't expect to hate what I find.
-------- He hasn't written in three months. Something's wrong. Did
he die? Get arrested? Knowing Misha, neither would be a stretch.
Without him around, I'm going crazy. I need to know someone is
listening. It's my own fault. I should've gotten his phone number
or picture or something. He could be gone forever. Or right under
my nose, and I wouldn't even know it. Punk 57 is a stand alone
romance. It is suitable for ages 18+
From the bestselling author of The House at Riverton and The
Forgotten Garden, Kate Morton brings us her trademark mix of
secrets, lies, and intricately layered mysteries in The
Clockmaker's Daughter. My real name, no one remembers. The truth
about that summer, no one else knows. In the depths of a
nineteenth-century winter, a little girl is abandoned in the narrow
streets of London. Adopted by a mysterious stranger, she becomes in
turn a thief, a friend, a muse, and a lover. Then, in the summer of
1862, shortly after her eighteenth birthday, she retreats with a
group of artists to a beautiful house on a quiet bend of the Upper
Thames . . . Tensions simmer and one hot afternoon a gunshot rings
out. A woman is killed, another disappears, and the truth of what
happened slips through the cracks of time. Over the next century
and beyond, Birchwood Manor welcomes many newcomers but guards its
secret closely - until another young woman is drawn to visit the
house because of a family secret of her own . . . As the mystery
begins to unravel, we discover the stories of those who have passed
through Birchwood Manor since that fateful day in 1862. Intricately
layered and richly atmospheric, it shows that, sometimes, the only
way forward is through the past.
