Book Description
A bizarre and otherworldly storm bears down onto the outback town of Wyndham, a storm unlike any seen before. Ned, a local schoolboy, finds himself trapped in a refrigerator during the chaos, only to emerge and find every living thing on Earth, human or otherwise, has vanished into the sky. While Ned bunkers down in what shelter he can find, surviving off the resources of an abandoned town, he soon notices the unsettling changes taking form around him: odd plant and animal life are emerging in place of those that were lost, and in place of humans comes these new, taller, nameless beings that Ned dubs Skyquakers. Ned's survival relies on him finding other humans; others like him who managed to outrun and outsmart the storm. But this country is big, dry, and unforgiving: his search for companionship across bushland and deserts cannot come without a few sacrifices. As the Skyquakers approach, he runs.

For fans of Rosemary Rogers and Janelle Taylor, a sweeping New Orleans romance of wild passion, dark secrets and forbidden love . . . Returning home to his beloved New Orleans after months in Jamaica, Bastien Thibodeaux reluctantly agrees to take two passengers on board his ship—an older English gentleman tending his ailing younger wife, Lily. That’s their story, at least. But as Bastien uses his skills as a Cajun healer to help Lily, he becomes convinced of two things: She is not who she claims to be. And though she may be out of bounds for the illegitimate son of a bayou priestess, their attraction is decidedly mutual. When Lily’s father bequeathed her his entire estate, he unwittingly made her a target. She barely escaped England alive, aided by her godfather. New Orleans holds both temptation and danger as she convalesces in Bastien’s lavish residence. A single night together is all she dares allow. But once they succumb, there can be no denying this desire, or how much they’ll risk in its name . . . “Roth brings the heat of New Orleans right through the pages in both the romantic chemistry and appealing descriptions of the area.” —Booklist
