"I have read hundreds of books of every genre... This story is my new all time favourite." lornaj "I don't think I've been this interested and entertained in a very long time." _vixanne_ "I'm blown away, to be honest." Anne-overhere The last thing sixteen-year-old Louise Doors remembers is collapsing on her way home from a gig and a boy trying to save her life. Now, six days later, she's woken up. But she's not in the hospital, she's at home, and it seems her life has gone on without her, except everything is messed up. Her best friends hate her, she's hanging out with a girl she barely knows, and a boy called Dylan wants to meet up to give her a letter. As it turns out, Dylan isn't just any boy, either, he's the guy who tried to save her life. Soon Louise will find out exactly what's been going on in her absence because those missing days are happening again, only in reverse. While each day brings surprising revelations about her family, her friends, and who she was before, Louise also draws closer to Dylan, believing he can help her get her proper life back. But soon she'll realize no matter what she does, these six days might be all she has left, and she wants to spend them falling in love, not fighting the universe.

From the author of your favorites like "Favor with the King" and "DUSA," comes the heart pounding, page turning story of Robin Hood (with a twist) Life used to be wonderful in the prosperous kingdom of Enchancia. It was only until a new ruler, King Richard, was brought to the throne that made the kingdom fail. Meet Robyn; a 19 year old free spirit whose life is filled with looting and debauchery: she was raised to rob all her life and has sworn off all royals as evil; what happens when she steals something most valuable from the king? Will a deal with a devil be her only chance to freedom? ____ "You really don't like to share?" I chided. "I am a prince so I always get what I want" he bragged. Once we entered his room he closed the door and turned to inspect my figure. He undressed me with his eyes and walked over to peel the thin red tulle covering my face. I breath nervously as we stand just a breaths apart, our lips barely touching at the surface. "Tell me to kiss you" he whispers desperately, pulling my body into his toned form; his warm hand trails across my exposed back. No words were exchanged as we stood observing each other, as if it was the first time we had met. "And why would I tell you to do a thing like that?" I tease him, impatiently waiting for the chance to tattoo the taste of his lips onto mine. "The eyes are the window to one's soul and yours are screaming for my touch" he murmurs as he grabs my chin, forcing me to stare into his blue eyes. I bit my lip innocently, making sure to tease him again. "Tell me" he growls once more into my neck, as his wet tongue begins to glide down its surface. _____ There will be a love triangle INVOLVED!

For fifty-one weeks of the year, Heather McNeil loves her job as assistant to the director of the Washington DC Market Show Center. But the Gift and Home trade show, the biggest show of the year at the center, is a week-long nightmare. This year's version is worse than usual. Misplaced shipments, feuding exhibitors, and malfunctioning popcorn machines are all in a day's work. Finding the body of a murdered executive dumped in a trash bin during the show isn't. The discovery tips Heather's life into havoc. The police have reason to suspect the victim's wife killed him, but Heather doesn't believe it. She's gotten glimmers of an entirely different scenario and possible motive, but questioning exhibitors about the crime doesn't make her popular with them or with her employers. Still, other lives might be at risk, and if she doesn't identify the murderer before the show ends, the culprit could well remain free to kill again. Her only help comes from a company executive with ulterior motives and the Market Center's attractive new security officer, Scott Brandon. Despite opposition from some of the exhibitors, her employers, and the police, Heather seeks to expose the killer before the show ends. To solve the mystery she will have to risk what's most important to her and be prepared to fight for answers, her job, and possibly her life.
