Lucy is finally back with Daniel, but for how long? When she has a dream about Caleb being seriously hurt, she knows that she must do what she can to help him. She gets Caleb back to the motel where she and Daniel are staying, but something isn’t right. When Caleb pushes Lucy for answers, she finds herself in an impossible position, with far too much to lose.

It’s the beginning of the end. The war is impending, and there seems to be nothing that can be done to stop it. Daniel is offered a choice that he seems unable to avoid making, but he’s got other plans that Gabriel could never have foreseen. When the fight breaks out, someone is hurt in the crossfire. That person is then given a choice. A choice between getting to do it all over again or being with the person she loves. Can there be a happily ever after for Daniel and Lucy, or will they always be torn apart?

Lucy knows that she's in trouble. She knows that once Gabriel has the information that he needs, he is going to kill her. She knows that holding on to the information is the only thing keeping her alive. But as Gabriel ramps up the torture is being alive really such a great thing anymore? Gabriel doesn't know who he can trust. He knows that Caleb is probably the only one of his brothers who can help him break into Lucy's mind, but he has his doubts about Caleb. When desperation kicks in, he agrees to let Caleb help. But what will be the cost?

Lucy remembers everything. She remembers the moment she was born. She remembers how she was born, and she remembers what that makes her. Gabriel has managed to unlock her memories, and now she can’t escape them as they play out inside her eyes. She’s finally getting some answers to the questions that have plagued her life, but will they be what she wanted them to be? Daniel wasn’t always called Daniel. In fact, he didn’t take that name until he made a decision that he knew he would regret for eternity. What forced him to change his name, and what was the choice that led him to it?

These laugh-out-loud stories from New Hampshire and Vermont are set during the four seasons of the year. The storyteller in his appealing dialect tells little-known tales, among them "Mothah Skunk" and the night she had to move out with her kits because Sherman Curtis smelled so bad; the escapades of Big Gertie Benson, the lumberjacks' cook and a cousin of the Bunyans in the Midwest; and George Petty, who delivered the mail even during mud season by standing on the back of his horse with only his head sticking out.

Lucy knows there is something wrong with the psychiatric home she’s been taken to. She’s noticed that she seems to be the only patient there. She’s noticed all of the empty rooms and the fact that every door to the outside world is locked. She’s also noticed how strangely her doctor is acting. It’s as if he’s pushing her for information — but information about what? Gabriel knows that all the answers are in Lucy’s head, but she’s refusing to find them for him. He’s trying to keep calm. He’s trying to give her time, so that she can discover her memories on her own. But when she starts to cause trouble, he knows that there’s only one thing he can do. Will Lucy survive Gabriel’s desperate attempt to get the answers?

Lucy has always known that she was different from the other kids in her home. Of course, it doesn't help that she suffers from a recurring nightmare that wakes her up with a scream on her lips and sweat pouring down her back. The nightmare is driving her crazy. She's too scared to sleep, she's too tired to live and she feels as though it's never going to get better...until Daniel shows up, that is.

From the author of the Hugo-winning Six Months, Three Days, a new wrinkle on the old story of three wishes, set after the end of the world.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (May 22, 1859 - July 7, 1930) was a British author most noted for his stories about the detective Sherlock Holmes, which are generally considered a major innovation in the field of crime fiction, and for the adventures of Professor Challenger. He was a prolific writer whose other works include science-fiction stories, historical novels, plays and romances, poetry, and non-fiction.

Two years after the death of their maverick scientist father, two brothers and their obsessive mother embark on a personal odyssey to lay his spirit to rest. An odyssey where science borders on madness, where guilt and loss drives them farther apart, and where each reaches into the boundless depths of space with only one question on their mind.

Up to this point in my life, I've always considered myself as straight as a damn arrow. I've always been a popular girl, and I'm currently dating a well-endowed stud who regularly plows me in his bedroom whenever I feel like it. But lately, my interest in sex has been changing slightly. I don't know if it's the stress of getting ready to start my first semester of college or what, but I'm finding my erotic thoughts have been gravitating toward females more often than not, and I'm not sure what exactly I should do about the fact.

Atreus Kostas, a rich Greek businessman, is literally left holding his baby when his wife, Serene, runs off with his good friend and business partner, Nikolas. When his mother and sister push him to hire a nanny, Atreus is against it at first. He wants his son, Dios, to be raised by family and doesn't think he'll receive the care and attention he requires if he brings a stranger in to do the job.

Carla agrees to Atreus' proposal - for better or for worse - and the villa is thrown into an excited frenzy of celebration and preparation. Sad that her parents are not alive to be with her during this happy time, however, Carla decides that she must go back to London to see the only family she has left since their tragic accident: her grandmother and grandfather. And Atreus and Dios will accompany her during her trip while Andria and Hanna tend to business at the villa.

Carla believes the time has come for her to leave Greece. But while she may feel it's for the best, Atreus does not agree. Dios needs her. So does Atreus. Unfortunately, Atreus is not the only one who wants Carla. Brian, the boyfriend she left behind when she came to work for Atreus, has been looking for her. And he's finally hunted her down.

The son of Atreus Kostas, the Greek tycoon, has been taken. Without a clue as to where he could be, Atreus and Carla must suspect everyone. But there are two names that top the list: Dios' mother, Serene; and Carla's deranged ex-boyfriend, Brian. Of course, as a billionaire in a foreign country, Atreus has to be careful about whom he trusts. Absolutely anyone could be the culprit. But when he receives a phone call from the kidnapper, all of his questions are answered.

Yet, she couldn't help but to get a little angry and a little drunk when she's not offered an internship position by her professor, Erin Daniels, a billionaire whose internship could set her up for anything. She's devastated, and she plans to do something about it.
