Tan Lines
J. J. Salem
Liza, Kellyanne and Billie are ambitious heroines chasing their dreams in the demimondes of media politics, reality television and rock music. Their journey unfolds thrill by thrill, shock by shock in an unputdownable story about the illusions of glamour, the dark side of success, the elusiveness of love and the fragility of relationships.
Three incidents will change their lives forever: a career free fall, a surprise pregnancy and a brutal murder. And it all happens during one unforgettable season at a summer share in the Hamptons.

The First Assistant
Clare Naylor & Mimi Hare
Lizzie Miller, the smart and witty East Coast girl clinging for dear life to the bottom rung of the Hollywood ladder has been promoted. No more coffee runs and sorting thumb tacks by colour for, as First Assistant, Lizzie is now making decisions and learning the ins and outs of The Business. And unlike other air-heads, she vows not to be wooed by the glamour and mystique of La-La land, though with a smart and wealthy boyfriend, and diamonds galore, it's getting harder for Lizzie to keep her pumps firmly on the ground.

Crazy As Chocolate
Elisabeth Hyde
Ellie and Izzy have lived a life with a mother they adored. Taking them for long midnight baths or dancing in the dark in the rain, she’s been a magical, colourful figure.
Now, on the eve of her forty-first birthday, Izzy realises that she’s about to reach the year her mother never got beyond. Her father and sister are flying out for an emotionally charged weekend visit, and Izzy can’t help feeling that she’s still responsible, that there are apologies to be made. Surely now she’s at an age where a grown-up daughter can put things behind her?

The Dark Part of Me
Belinda Burns
As the hot Brisbane summer unfurls, Rosie cannot help but lust after her ex-boyfriend, Scott, who has returned after two years abroad. Rosie’s mum says Scott is a man, and deep down all men are rotten. But what does she know? She doesn’t seem to have noticed that her teenage daughter is spiralling out of control with her increasing appetite for sex and drugs.
In some ways, Rosie’s mum is right, Scott’s out to treat her like dirt. But every time Rosie sees him she can’t wait to have sex with him. Rosie’s erotic trysts with her best friend Hollie have also begun to lose their adolescent playfulness and are turning into something far more serious. And now Hollie’s brother is out of prison, having done time for the manslaughter of one of Scott’s friends, things are bound to turn ugly . . .
Sexual depravity, homophobia, racism and violence abound beneath the comedy of this suburban scene as these teenagers, bereft of a true understanding of themselves and of their society’s history, reach for anchorage.

Laguna Cove
Alyson Noël
Moving to sunny Southern Cal feels like punishment to 17-year-old Anne. the hippie-ish school is different from her old one on the East Coast, and the social scene is all about hanging out at the beach and surfing. And then there's Ellie: beautiful, competitive queen of the social scene who takes an instant disliking to Anne. So when Chris--one of Ellie's oldest friends and, oh yeah, the most gorgeous guy in school--reaches out to Anne and offers to teach her how to surf, sparks fly...in more ways than one.

Undead and Unemployed
Mary Janice Davidson

Not willing to "live" off her friends, she lands her dream job selling shoes at Macy's, much to the dismay of her consort/King, Eric Sinclair, who is as loyal, protective, and hot as ever. Not that Betsy has any interest in him (or does she?). And now, vampires in her kingdom are being attacked and staked by a mysterious gang. Can she solve the mystery in time to save her kingdom? Can she stop spending all her wages on shoes? Can she resist the charms of Eric Sinclair - does she want to?
