VENETIAN BLOOD
by Christine Volker
Description:Ā Struggling to forget a crumbling marriage, forty-year-old Anna Lucia Lottol comes to Venice to visit an old friendābut instead of finding solace, she is dragged into the police station and accused of murdering a money-laundering count with whom she had a brief affair. A US Treasury officer with brains and athleticism, Anna fights to clear her name in a seductive city full of watery illusions. As she works to pry information from a cast of recalcitrant characters sometimes denying what she sees and hears, she succeeds in unleashing a powerful foe bent on destroying her. Will she save herself and vanquish her enemies, including her darkest fears?
A mysterious tapestry of murder, betrayal, and family, Venetian Blood is a story of one womanās brave quest for the truth ābefore itās too late.
LONDON CAN YOU WAIT?
by Jacquelyn Middleton
Description:Ā Alex loves Mark. Mark Loves Alex. But is love enough?
Since Moving to London from the US, twenty-four-year-old Alex Sinclair seems to have it all: a coveted job writing for the theatre, supportive friends, and the man of her dreamsāgorgeous Irish actor, Mark Keegan. But on the year since the acclaimed debut of her play, Alex and Markās lives have been turned upside down.
Thanks to his role on a smash-hit British TV show, Mark is catapulted to stardom. Alex couldnāt be happierāuntil her boyfriendās popularity and insatiable drive to succeed means theyāre apart more than theyāre together. Forced to share Mark with showbiz heavy-hitters, intrusive press, and unrelenting fan girls, Alexās hopes for a stable and committed life with him start to fade. Her struggles with panic attacks, career uncertainty, and Markās increasingly worrisome behaviour makes her wonder: how much more can she bend before she breaks?
A passionate tale of secrets, loss, and ambition, London, Can You Wait? is the eagerly-awaited sequel to Middletonās debut novel, London Belongs to Me.
