Madeline is determined to escape the life of her childhood – watching her mother working two jobs just to cover the bills, missing out on all the fun activities her classmates got to enjoy. She's at college, for the qualification, and the freedom it will give her.

His parent's wealth has ensured he's never had to worry about his future, and he's never thought beyond the sun, sand, and parties he'd always enjoyed. But then his parents threatened to cut off his allowance if he didn't go to college, where he finds himself attracted to a beautiful but boring classmate, who seems to think the library is the place to be. When Summer break comes around, Madeline and Jarrett think they can avoid each other, but life has other plans.

Despite the circumstances, Riley’s trip home is sprinkled with reunions with old friends, visits to her father’s cozy bookshop on the town green, and joyful hours behind the counter at the beloved Udderly Delicious Ice Cream Shop. It feels like a time to help her friend Caroline rebuild after her mother’s death, and for Riley to do a bit of her own reflecting after a botched undercover mission in Italy. After all, it’s always good to be home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glenda’s Wedding Night By Nadjina Shanik Glenda’s Wedding Night is a search-for-love story like nothing you've ever read. It takes a look at many different cultures, how they deal with love and marriage. This tale revolves around culture shock and class clash. Our protagonist Glenda marries five times to men of different nationalities in different countries. She progresses hopefully from the spineless wimp to the ultra-macho man of her dreams. Traveling from Tuxedo Park, to Ibiza, Mexico, Greece, Israel, Cyprus, Jordan, Turkey, and New York City, Glenda’s Wedding Night is doormat versus diva, wife versus mistress, career versus home, feminism versus machismo, quack versus witch, users and losers, playboys and wannabes, the Latin culture versus the Anglo culture, and immigrant versus blue-blood. It’s about what everybody thinks they’re missing in life, about dangerous liaisons and fatal attractions. It’s all here in a multicolored tapestry of steamy romance and bizarre travel, spanning decades.

Book excerpt: This is a true story as told to me by the main character, Jane. It is a graphic story of both childhood and domestic abuse, which Jane has kept hidden for fifty years. Very few people have heard her story, until now. She asked me to write it in order to bring closure to the past and to help other women who might be in a similar situation to gain the courage to escape, to survive, as she has done. Jane is truly a survivor. She escaped from and survived two very violent marriages. She was forced to endure things most people could never imagine. Yet, somehow, she did survive and went on to lead a productive life. "God has a plan," Jane says. "He allowed me to survive." Now that she is in her seventies, it's time to tell her story. I only hope I've done it justice. Warning: At times, Jane's story is very graphic. If this is a trigger for you, please do not read it.
