Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Midwife Shelby Gianopoulos is feeling desperate. Single and alone at twenty-eight, she has spent many a family gathering fending off the increasing concern from her well-meaning relatives. Now, there’s another family wedding looming and Shelby’s desperate to find a date. She can’t bear the thought of being the brunt of more pitying looks and outright confrontations. Doctor Samuel Munro is the perfect choice. Good-looking, young and single, he sets female hearts aflutter all over the Sydney Harbour Hospital. Though she barely knows him, Shelby is relieved when he agrees to accompany her to the wedding and pretend that they’re in love. Little does she know they’re not the only ones pretending… Alexei Gianopolous, a senior partner at Harton & Wentworth, is living a double life. When Shelby discovers her father’s secret, he stuns her even more by telling her Shelby’s mother knows all about it. Toss in the fact that Shelby’s brother has just come out to her and it’s little wonder her mind is in a spin. And then she discovers other peculiarities – like a dead man’s baseball cap in her father’s den – and she can’t help but wonder what other secrets her family have hidden so well…

When Olivia is kidnapped while shopping with Ellie, she’s beside herself with guilt. To add to her devastation, Clayton’s blaming her for not taking proper care of his daughter. Detective Senior Sergeant Lane Black of the Chatswood State Crime Command is put in charge of the case. A child is missing and time is of the essence. To further complicate matters, the New South Wales Attorney General’s youngest daughter was present at the time of the kidnapping. The girls look very much alike. Could it be a case of mistaken identity? Could the abduction be politically motivated? When interviewing the Attorney General, Lane’s disquieted by the man’s nervousness. His oldest daughter Zara Dowton is also on edge. Immediately drawn to her exotic beauty, Lane does his best to remain unmoved and impartial, despite his body’s urgings. What are the Dowtons hiding…and why? THE DEFENDANT – Book Eight of the Munro Family Series Detective Sergeant Chase Barrington has never forgotten the girl he fell in love with in high school. He and Josie Munro planned to marry as soon as they’d graduated. But fate stepped in and Chase made the painful decision to end it without telling Josie the truth… When twelve-year-old Daniel Logan witnesses the rape of his mother, he grabs a gun and shoots the perpetrator dead. Chase attends the scene and Daniel’s arrested and charged with murder. A decade after graduating high school, child psychologist Josie Munro has recently returned to her hometown. When she’s appointed by the court to provide a report on Daniel’s mental capacity, it’s inevitable that she runs into the detective on the case. Unaware of the real reason why Chase ended their relationship, her anger and grief from all those years ago immediately rise to the surface. With no choice but to carry on and complete the task she’s been given, she determines to keep Chase as far away from her as possible and get the job over with as quickly as she can. But things aren’t that easy. If her report proves Daniel knew that shooting the perpetrator was wrong, his matter will proceed to trial. If found guilty, he’s facing up to fifteen years in jail. As Josie gets to know Daniel through therapy sessions, she realizes he knew exactly what he was doing: He meant to kill his mother’s rapist and he’s not at all sorry. She’s torn between doing what the law requires of her against what her heart knows is right. She’s also conflicted over her feelings for Chase. She wants to hate him, but she can’t. Will she follow her head or her heart?

Smart, slim and beautiful, Veronica is the most popular girl at Wheeler High. All the other girls wish they could be her. The boys look at her with longing. She loves every second of the attention. In fact, she craves it. Somehow it helps to replace the lack of attention she receives at home… And so what if she amuses herself at the expense of others? The occasional mean comment to a loser doesn’t make her a bully. Jessie Angel is weak. She ought to toughen up. It’s her own fault she’s become a frequent target. Then Jessie Angel kills herself and Veronica is put into a spin. Not because she’s shocked by what Jessie has done, or even mourns the girl’s demise. No, it’s because all of a sudden the kids at Wheeler High are looking at her differently…many with accusation in their eyes. It’s not her fault Jessie Angel shot herself in the head! It’s not fair to be blamed for the stupid girl’s death. Veronica might have teased and tormented Jessie every now and then, but that was just a bit of fun. How was she to know Jessie Angel had taken it all so seriously? Honestly, the kids at Wheeler High need to wake up to themselves and lay the blame for Jessie’s death where it really lies… At Jessie Angel’s feet. As far as Veronica’s concerned, if Jessie was that weak, good riddance. Surely it’s only a matter of time before the rest of Wheeler High see that? Isn’t it...?
