Book Description
From international bestselling author Karen Hamilton comes another pulse-pounding domestic thriller set against a lush, tropical backdrop as a woman fleeing her past as a con artist finds herself trapped aboard a cruise ship with someone who not only knows about that past, but will stop at nothing to get revenge. It’s an offer she can’t refuse…and might not survive. Charlotte has an unsavory past, but she’s on the straight and narrow these days. She was so young then—she married the wrong man, falling for Sam’s sweet-talking charm and charisma, and got caught up in his con artist games. If only she’d left him before things went too far. Now Sam is missing. But before he disappeared, he left urgent, cryptic messages about someone threatening him—someone who has been threatening Charlotte, too. So Charlotte takes a job as a personal assistant for an engagement party aboard a private luxury cruise ship, the Cleobella, to get far away from anyone who means her harm. But as the Cleobella sails through its glittering destinations, increasingly sinister events haunt the guests, and the turquoise waves and sun-drenched beaches give way to something darker. Someone knows what Charlotte did. Is it the blushing bride? The seemingly placid mother-in-law? Or the mysterious heiress? Someone knows, and someone wants revenge—before the ship reaches its final port.

Book Description
Faith: I’m a waitress in a small town, so when a handsome stranger leaves me a hundred-dollar tip and asks me to meet him at his place, I throw caution to the wind. Sure, I might be abducted or even worse, but what Hunter and I ended up doing in private made it *totally* worth it. Hunter: The minute I saw Faith in that flirty waitress outfit, I lost it. Was I pushy and possessive? Yes. Did I help myself to those curves the minute she stepped through the door? Yes. But there’s something strange about Faith because she looks eerily like a woman I used to know. To my horror, she is my ex-wife’s daughter … but that’s not going to stop me from putting a baby in her belly! Hey Readers – Hunter’s a pro athlete who had a 6-second marriage back in the day, but it comes back to haunt him when he meets the woman of his dreams. After all, Faith is everything that he wants, but what happens when she shares the DNA of his ex-wife? There is *nothing* realistic about this story, but I promise you’ll love it because this is forbidden romance at its best! This book is a follow-up to Hot Single Daddy, but all of my books may be read as standalones. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and always a HEA for my readers. Enjoy! Xoxo, Cassie

Smacked
Author: Eilene Zimmerman
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 0525511008
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
A journalist pieces together the mysteries surrounding her ex-husband’s descent into drug addiction while trying to rebuild a life for her family, taking readers on an intimate journey into the world of white-collar drug abuse. “A rare combination of journalistic rigor, personal courage, and writerly grace.”—Bill Clegg, author of Portrait of an Addict as a Young Man Something was wrong with Peter. Eilene Zimmerman noticed that her ex-husband looked thin, seemed distracted, and was frequently absent from activities with their children. She thought he looked sick and needed to see a doctor, and indeed, he told her he had been diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder. Yet in many ways, Peter seemed to have it all: a beautiful house by the beach, expensive cars, and other luxuries that came with an affluent life. Eilene assumed his odd behavior was due to stress and overwork—he was a senior partner at a prominent law firm and had been working more than sixty hours a week for the last twenty years. Although they were divorced, Eilene and Peter had been partners and friends for decades, so when she and her children were unable to reach Peter for several days, Eilene went to his house to see if he was OK. So begins Smacked, a brilliant and moving memoir of Eilene’s shocking discovery, one that sets her on a journey to find out how a man she knew for nearly thirty years became a drug addict, hiding it so well that neither she nor anyone else in his life suspected what was happening. Eilene discovers that Peter led a secret life, one that started with pills and ended with opioids, cocaine, and methamphetamine. He was also addicted to work; the last call Peter ever made was to dial in to a conference call. Eilene is determined to learn all she can about Peter’s hidden life, and also about drug addiction among ambitious, high-achieving professionals like him. Through extensive research and interviews, she presents a picture of drug dependence today in that moneyed, upwardly mobile world. She also embarks on a journey to re-create her life in the wake of loss, both of the person—and the relationship—that profoundly defined the woman she had become.

Based on a study of over 400 women worldwide, Runaway Husbands: The Abandoned Wife's Guide to Recovery and Renewal, is the first book to explore and offer healing strategies to women whose lives have been turned upside down by Wife Abandonment Syndrome. This Revised and Updated edition expands on the groundbreaking first edition that led to the development of an amazing global community of women working together to recover from Wife Abandonment Syndrome - when a husband leaves out-of-the-blue from what his wife believed to be a happy, secure marriage. Following his sudden departure, he typically replaces the caring he'd previously shown her with blame and anger, leaving his bewildered wife totally devastated.

Book Description
"To have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part."Those last five words are what Skylar zeroes in on. She isn't dead, which technically means Jacob is still hers. She isn't sinning at all. He still belongs to me, Skylar rationalizes. This is not your typical "husband cheats, wife cries, they divorce, ex-husband marries his side chick" story. When Jacob meets Skylar, sparks ignite instantly. Five years down, a lifetime to go, and explosive chemistry that's as vital as their next breath. Year six, though? That's when things start to unravel. The love they thought they built just might be more fragile than they ever imagined. The worst type of temptation, Ava tricks her way into Jacob's heart, doing everything in her power to lay claim to a love she believes is her destiny. Her mission is simple: get rid of the ex and become the next. Unfortunately, Ava made a grave mistake in underestimating Skylar. Will Ava discover she's met her match before it's too late?Side chicks are the worst of the worst. Scavengers. Stuck on repeat, that mantra haunts Skylar daily. Five years of "better" felt like heaven, but it's not enough to make up for the "worse" that shattered her happily ever after. A fool in love, Skylar will never be. Good girls don't get mad, they get even; so, who will be left standing in the end. On the other side of 'til death do us part' is Max. A handsome widower, he has two things on his mind: raising his daughter and avoiding love at all costs. Unfortunately, the heart wants what the heart wants. When Max crosses paths with the type of woman who reminds him how to open his heart again to love and lust, his life will forever be changed.He's Still My Husband brings you a tangled web of karma, and everyone knows that karma is a bad chick whose debts can never be paid in full. Husband, side chick, dog, cat, goldfish-everyone pays when karma shows up. Turn the page and start reading today to find out if side chicks really stay winning.
