Two kids, one boy one girl and two loving parents. Life was truly sweet. Casper was a year older than Elysa and was adopted into the Everton family when he was one; Elysa soon came into the world after him. Like every sibling, they fought and found it tough to be civil around each other. In essence, family life was great. That was until one specific year social services abruptly knocked on the door and informed the Everton’s that they’ll have to take Casper away. The explanations given were not completely legitimate and the eight year old was forcibly taken. The family fought to have him returned, attending several court cases only to be told that his welfare was in danger if he still resided with the Everton’s. After years of trying, the Everton’s finally resigned and reluctantly resumed with their own lives. Ten years on another knock on their door was heard, once the door opened their life was transformed yet again, this time by Casper reappearing in their lives. But this Casper was not an inch of his former self and something told the Everton’s that they need to prepare them self for a long journey of emotions; one which Elysa will need to prepare for the most.

...it's easier. ...it's safer. ...it's often not hate at all. *full available on Amazon. Free in KU.* The Granger and Drake families have been through everything together; the suicide of the eldest Granger son, the Drake patriarch's cancer diagnosis, family holidays with only slight maiming, and more dance recitals than anyone would care to remember. Leilani Granger can't stand the person Casper Drake has become, and Casper doesn't even recognise his best mate's little sister anymore. Loving each other is second-nature, but they don't know how not to hate each other either. As they face losing Leilani's only remaining brother and Casper's best mate to his inner demons, old habits lead them back to each other for comfort. But, after one night of a deeper connection than either of them were ready for, the lines between the emotional and the physical start to blur. Leilani wasn't the kind to lose herself in meaningless sex. Casper's been doing it for years. It's the only time they can forget the storm clouds in their lives. It's the only time they can remember the sunshine. It's the only time hate doesn't get in the way. But, the trouble with hate is...it's often not hate at all. NB: Contains mature content.
