![]() And she did have bruises…and cuts, a gash across her nose, scrapes on her cheekbones, and Kassidy could see an angry red mark on her left collarbone. Her mom looked worse than her dad, her face so pale the blue veins in her temples looked like bruises. She leaned on the bed, trying to stay upright. “I’m okay.” Her mother spoke, her words a whisper, and relief poured through Kassidy, weakening her knees. “Kassidy.” He turned to her, his face pale and anxious. I’m here.” She rushed over to her father. Her dad stood there beside the hospital bed while a nurse checked some monitors or something. The nurse held the door open and Kassidy walked in, her heart fluttering, afraid of what she was going to see. Where was Hailey? Her dad probably hadn’t even called her. “Tess, can you take this woman back to exam room three? It’s the daughter.” “Are you family?” She looked at Kassidy over her black-framed glasses. The woman clicked through some screens on a computer. ![]()

Until one day, Lily is found dead and Asher is the number one suspect. She is also hoping for a fresh start from a painful past.Īsher and Lily eventually start to date and fall in love and for once, everything seems at peace. Whereas Lily is a teenager girl who just moved to the area with her mother. ![]() She left behind an abusive marriage to start over in her hometown in New Hampshire. Olivia is a beekeeper and a mother to a teenager son, Asher. The story is told from the perspectives of Olivia and Lily. It’s not an easy read and many times, it’s quite sad but it’s also important and I think will open many eyes to the struggles that people deal with on a daily basis. The novel, co-written with Jennifer Finney Boylan, covers so much: identity, gender, abuse, love, toxic relationships and much more. She has this masterful way of presenting a story that seems pretty clear cut on paper and then about midway, there is a twist that changes everything. Jodi Picoult does not shy away from covering relevant and to some, controversial topics. ![]() ![]() ![]() Tracking delivery Saver Delivery: Australia postĪustralia Post deliveries can be tracked on route with eParcel.

We begin with Eve Dallas being called to investigate a body in Times Square of a judge found very early Christmas morning. The story was first presented in the "Silent Night" anthology and immediately follows the full-size novel "Holiday in Death". ![]() Anyone who hasn't read the series can still probably read this since they really try not to put too much back story in there (I'm guessing since some readers tend to skip these "in-betweeners"). Regardless of length, it was still very interesting to read and I always love learning more about the characters and observing more of their interactions. It surely was a thrilling little story! We jumped right into the action and clearly not having to figure out who the suspect was seemed to be a way to really cut down on time. Eve soon realizes it's not that easy, and Palmer starts picking off her friends and former allies one by one until he gets to her as the grand finale. It was a very interesting twist that this time Dallas and her team knew who the killer was, knew him personally having studied him to get him behind bars the first time around, and now they just need to find a way to catch him. It obviously left me wanting more because I can never have enough of this series! ![]() This was a super quick read since it's a novella in between the full books. ![]() ![]() ![]() With her trademark witty prose and warmhearted storytelling, Molly Harper’s newest glimpse of the McCready family will be perfect for fans of Christina Lauren and Amy E.

For what Margot assumed was a rare night out with the girls, her cousin had kept the makeup on her. She was all lush curves, except for her tiny waistdownright unfair, considering she’d had two kids. Marianne was built like an old-school Vargas pinup. ![]() ![]() Sexy school principal Kyle faces the biggest challenge of his career: getting his (pregnant) event planner girlfriend Margot down the aisle before the baby arrives!

That isn’t to say he shouldn’t be trusted, but readers should take this for what it is: irreverent and illuminating edutainment, good for the science-phobic and -centric alike. Absent are source notes to back up Bryson’s many claims (or any other back matter aside from an index, photo credits, and a list of Bryson’s adult books).
