Adopted into a loving family, he’s gotten over his trust issues and become an integral part of the Barrington dynasty. Until now. The recent discovery that his biological mother is not only very much alive but is none other than Elizabeth Craigdon, the matriarch of the venerable Craigdon family, has rocked Vaughan to the core. In shock, he hops a plane to Bali in an effort to distance himself from Elizabeth and to give himself time alone to process the staggering news. Ruby Ashworth is in Bali on a mission of her own. She’s been ordered by her father to get close to Vaughan Barrington in an effort to access company secrets that might sabotage the Barrington Mining operations. Ruby’s father has an ax to grind against Frank Barrington and he can think of no better way to get revenge than through the man’s adopted son. Oblivious to Ruby’s true identity, Vaughan finds himself falling for the gorgeous and sexy blond. She’s everything he could dream of and is a nice distraction from his problems back home. As Ruby’s feelings deepen for Vaughan, she’s overcome with guilt. She owes it to her father to seek revenge, but how can she go through with it when her heart’s no longer in it? Still, it’s too late to back out now. Her father is pressuring her to come through for him. All she can hope is that Vaughan doesn’t find out about her deception, and if he does, that he finds it in his heart to forgive her. USA Today bestselling author, Chris Taylor doesn’t disappoint.

Young, single and good-looking, he’s living the high life as a successful doctor running a Sydney Harbour Hospital medical practice with Shane Kirkbride and Kevin Johnson, his two best friends from college. But then, Shane is found murdered in the back room of the clinic and the police are insistent the murder was an inside job. It’s ludicrous to think that Jake or Kevin might be responsible, but the police have the two of them in their sights. Kevin is let off the hook when he produces an alibi – he was out to dinner with his girlfriend and there are plenty of witnesses to back him up. Jake isn’t so lucky. He has no one who can come forward and vouch for his whereabouts. The police turn up the heat. Jake isn’t surprised to discover Katrina West is Kevin’s alibi. As Kevin’s long term girlfriend, the pair are as good as joined at the hip. It pains Jake to admit it, but the two of them make a great couple and will no doubt one day marry. The thought depresses the hell out of him, but there’s nothing he can do. His only hope is to get over his feelings for Kat and find a woman as perfect as she. But as the police investigation becomes more pointed, Jake is flat out just trying to survive. Why won’t they believe his protestations of innocence? Why is he the only one who believes they’re wasting their time? Meanwhile, the person who did it might very well get away with murder…

Book excerpt: Making it in a man’s world… When Hannah Barrington took on the job of safety manager at her father’s mine, she expected it to be challenging. Not only because of the high-pressure environment where safety is always paramount, but because she’s working in a traditionally male dominated world and there are plenty of men who have made it clear they don’t want her there. But Hannah is known for her pluck, and she’s determined to make her mark. She also refuses to be intimidated by anyone. That includes Liam Hennessy. An investigator with the New South Wales Resources Regulator, Liam Hennessy is responsible for investigating safety breaches at Hannah’s mine. Having recently been transferred to the Hunter Valley, this is the first time he’s ventured onto a Barrington family-owned mine site. Liam has long-held grievances against the Barrington family that go all the way back to high school. Now he has a chance for revenge, and he has Hannah very firmly in his sights. Unaware of the reason behind Liam’s antagonism, Hannah’s left confused and angry over Liam’s unbending attitude. He seems determined to make an example of the Barringtons and close their mine. Not only will that cost millions in lost production, but it will also reflect badly on her and one thing she can’t stand is failure. She wished she could simply win the investigator over with her charm, but he seems immune to her attempts. Too bad she finds him so darned attractive. What will it take for him to call a truce and work with her, rather than do his best to ruin everything she’s worked so hard for?

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD • One of today’s most insightful and influential thinkers offers a powerful exploration of inequality and the lesson that generations of Americans have failed to learn: Racism has a cost for everyone—not just for people of color. WINNER OF THE PORCHLIGHT BUSINESS BOOK AWARD • ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Time, The Washington Post, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Ms. magazine, BookRiot, Library Journal “This is the book I’ve been waiting for.”—Ibram X. Kendi, #1 New York Times bestselling author of How to Be an Antiracist Look for the author’s new podcast, The Sum of Us, based on this book! Heather McGhee’s specialty is the American economy—and the mystery of why it so often fails the American public. From the financial crisis of 2008 to rising student debt to collapsing public infrastructure, she found a root problem: racism in our politics and policymaking. But not just in the most obvious indignities for people of color. Racism has costs for white people, too. It is the common denominator of our most vexing public problems, the core dysfunction of our democracy and constitutive of the spiritual and moral crises that grip us all. But how did this happen? And is there a way out? McGhee embarks on a deeply personal journey across the country from Maine to Mississippi to California, tallying what we lose when we buy into the zero-sum paradigm—the idea that progress for some of us must come at the expense of others. Along the way, she meets white people who confide in her about losing their homes, their dreams, and their shot at better jobs to the toxic mix of American racism and greed. This is the story of how public goods in this country—from parks and pools to functioning schools—have become private luxuries; of how unions collapsed, wages stagnated, and inequality increased; and of how this country, unique among the world’s advanced economies, has thwarted universal healthcare. But in unlikely places of worship and work, McGhee finds proof of what she calls the Solidarity Dividend: the benefits we gain when people come together across race to accomplish what we simply can’t do on our own. The Sum of Us is not only a brilliant analysis of how we arrived here but also a heartfelt message, delivered with startling empathy, from a black woman to a multiracial America. It leaves us with a new vision for a future in which we finally realize that life can be more than a zero-sum game. LONGLISTED FOR THE ANDREW CARNEGIE MEDAL
