Ugly Paradise
ASIN : B00E0JG1IC
​
Bali is a tropical island paradise: The Island of the Gods. But beneath beauty, evil lurks.
Katie Anderson bears a conspicuous emblem of harm forcing her painful history on everyone she encounters. But she has no idea who she is or why she has been abandoned to her fate after being attacked by an escaped Sumatran tiger - the pet of a local Californian scriptwriter.
Who had been with her when she was attacked and why was there a severed head of a goat secreted in her rucksack?
In the five years since the attack, Katie has grown accustomed to the indelible paw print etched on her cheek which draws sympathetic glances and repulsed stares in equal measure. That is until the casual cruelty of a comment from a wrinkle-free diner at The Alice Garden restaurant in Sanur beach sparks her quest for answers, launching Katie on the path to discover the truth.
Will Katie find the spiritual and emotional serenity she craves or will society's obsession with the superiority and necessity of physical perfection prevent her progress?
Friends in Law
ASIN: B00C10PMYM
​
As Lucy Ryan claws her way up the slippery corporate ladder, her craving for success renders her oblivious to all objections. Ignoring her hunky fire fighter boyfriend's increasingly hurtful accusations and failing to notice the perilous state of her parents' business, she dodges her boss's vicious arrows of verbal assault drawn from his quiver of abuse in his own lustful battle for financial gain and control.
However, ambition comes in many different guises.
For Harriet, it's her desire for eternal happiness in the heart of a loving family and a longed-for child.
For Marcus, it's his ambition for creative fulfilment moulded by his passionate obsession with sculptural design, despite the objections from his parents.
But will their ambitions be the catalyst to their downfall or provide the propulsion to triumph?
The Wish List Addiction
What's on your Wish list?
​
Rebecca Mathews is a Listoholic - you name it, she has a 'To Do' list for it. Coupled with her daily 'Must Achieve' List', she possesses a mid-term, creatively drawn 'Wish List' and an exhaustively-researched 'Bucket List'. But so far, they have delivered nothing but spectacular failure.
With her much-loved career exploded in her face, her marriage terminated in an acrimonious divorce and her frail father's pleas to return to her native Northumberland ignored, Rebecca concludes that if it wasn't for her beloved four year old son, Max, she would be adding a trip to a Swiss clinic to her List.
A sparkle of light appears in Rebecca's life wrapped in the guise of 'The Little Green Book of Wishes', which challenges the reader to 'ditch the list' obsession and instead to use its gems of wisdom as a 'dip in/dip out' lucky bag of challenges from all areas of life, including 'Wishes with Children', Wishes with Partners', 'Wishes for Yourself' and Wishes for the World'.
Persuaded by her colleagues to relinquish her obsessive reliance on her multiple lists, cast adrift from their reassuring structure, she agrees to complete random tasks selected for her from the 'little emerald book of miracles'.
Will it deliver the desired result and cure Rebecca of her Wish List Addiction?
