Book excerpt: Anastasia, a stunning singer, was on top of the music world. Gorgeous, talented, and adored by men, she quickly became a superstar early in her career. But now, the rumor that she is a lesbian is swelling in the entertainment circles and threatens to bring her world to a crashing halt. Desperate for help, Anastasia turns toward the famous personal manager Sidney Marcum for help. Sidney is reluctant to represent her, but she accepts the job. Sidney insists, however, that Anastasia must live like a straight person; she must portray someone else to the public. Thus starts the facade -- a hiding of the truth in order to maintain Anastasia's image. In the meantime, Sidney is living behind a facade of her own that masks an abusive marriage, bitter divorce, and heart-wrenching custody battle. Full of suspense, false identities, and untold secrets, Facades is a stunning tale about falling in love, falling apart, and rebuilding for the future.

Book excerpt: An antique carousel horse sends Salem, Massachusetts, into a spin in this eerie murder mystery: “Highly original and great fun.” —Carolyn Hart, New York Times-bestselling author of Ghost Ups Her Game Lee Barrett has agreed to attend a storage auction with Aunt Ibby—even though she suspects the forgotten rooms will yield more junk than treasure. Her skepticism vanishes once the two win an overlooked locker and uncover a trove of beautiful curiosities, including a stunning wooden carousel horse with gentle eyes and fading paint. But just before Lee leaves the fairground relic at a local repair shop, the sight of a silver samovar awakens her psychic abilities and conjures visions of murder.

Apparently, the unknown victim had been hot on Lee’s trail since the auction. And with the horse found dismantled, it looks like he was up to no good. What’s the story behind the antique equine, and could a strange bubblegum-chewing woman with fiery hair have something to do with it all?

Download or read book Anastasia and Her Sisters written by Carolyn Meyer and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There’s a heavy price to pay for royalty in this compelling—and true—story of Anastasia Romanov and her fellow grand duchesses of Russia, from an award-winning novelist. It’s summer in 1914 and the Romanovs are aboard the Standart, the Russian royal yacht. Tsar Nicholas, Tsaritsa Alexandra, their four daughters, and the youngest child, Tsarevitch Alexei, are sailing to Romania to meet Crown Prince Carol and his parents. It seems like a fairy tale existence for the four grand duchesses, dressed in beautiful clothes, traveling from palace to palace. But it’s not. Life inside the palace is far from a fairy tale. The girls’ younger brother suffers from an excruciatingly painful and deadly blood disease, and their parents have chosen to shield the Russian people from the severity of the future tsar’s condition. The secrets and strain are hard on the family, and conditions are equally dire beyond the palace walls. Peasants suffer under the burden of extreme poverty and Tsar Nicholas’s leadership power weakens. And when the unthinkable happens—Germany declares war on Russia—nothing in Anastasia’s world will ever be the same.
