Stewart Gilmour is back in Stonemouth, Scotland. After five years in exile, his presence is required at the funeral of patriarch Joe Murston. Even though the last time Stu saw the Murstons he was running for his life, staying away might be even more dangerous than turning up.

Stonemouth is an estuary town north of Aberdeen, with a beach that can be beautiful on a sunny day. But on a bleak day, it seems to offer little more than fog, cheap drugs, and gangsters—plus a suspension bridge that promises a permanent way out.

Although there's supposed to be a temporary truce between Stewart and the town's biggest crime family, it's soon clear that only Stewart is taking this promise of peace seriously. As he steps back into the minefield of his past to confront his guilt and all that it has lost him, Stu uncovers ever darker stories. His homecoming takes a more lethal turn than even he had anticipated.

Tough, funny, fast-paced, and touching, Stonemouth cracks open adolescence, love, brotherhood, and vengeance in a rite of passage novel like no other.

A dark prophecy is fulfilled when a member of the Priori is murdered, setting loose a chain of events which will ultimately lead the world to a battle which will decide the fate of every human for generations to come.

About the author: In 2008, my eldest brother, father to my niece and nephew, was murdered in cold blood for his strong and successful effort in preventing troubled youth from joining violent bikie gangs. He was 26 years old. After this, I was flung into the grips of depression which forced me to place my university studies on hold. To escape my pain and sorrow, I travelled around the world, learning, sharing, and growing. Once I emerged from my dark place, I was inspired to dedicate my life to helping those who have gone through trauma. This story is one of the tools in my arsenal.

Coupled with my own overcoming and growth, the idea for this book came about after volunteering with survivors of abuse and trauma. Having spoken to and mentored numerous survivors, when discussing inspiration, one commonality stuck out. Amongst all the literature available to us, there was an outstanding absence of a protagonist who had risen from the throngs of real, deep abuse and trauma. This novel questions why should abominable trauma equal villainous behaviour? What if for once, protagonists turned to heroism through such extreme traumas? The real world survivors, the heroes of said abominable traumas, who have turned to good rather than evil deserve literary hope and more so, representation.

But things aren’t always as they seem.

I fought my own demons, trying not to be the submissive he required me to be, yet I craved it like a drug. I wanted him.

Once upon a time I was an identical twin.
And then I wasn’t.

Meet Romeo Prince in the Amazon & USA Today bestselling novel, Sweet Home. Now, hear the story from his lips: unbarred, uncensored, and raw to the bone.

It makes me laugh when I hear folks think Molly and I rushed into things too fast, spouting that we couldn't possibly have felt what we did for each other in such a short space of time. I say, how the hell would they know? We made it, didn't we? She became my whole life, didn't she?

And as for my folks not being real, being true? Tell that to me aged ten, eleven, twelve—damn, all my bastard life—when I was never enough, when I was beaten until I bled for being too good at football and not being everything they'd dreamed: the perfectly dutiful son. Tell that to thousands of kids around the world getting wailed on by asshole parents for whatever stupid reason; tell them evil don't exist in their eyes.

Forget Romeo and Juliet. This is the story of me and my girl, from my lips. No mushy sentiment, no cheese, just the plain, hard truth. And, because I'm feeling generous, I'm going to let you in on more of our story too.

Sweet Rome is a New Adult Companion Novel to Sweet Home—contains adult content, sexual situations, and mature topics. Suited for ages 18 and up.

Swimming Home is a subversive page-turner, offering a merciless gaze at the insidious harm that depression can inflict on seemingly stable, well-turned-out individuals. Set in a summer villa, the story is tautly structured, unfolding over a week where a group of beautiful, flawed tourists in the French Riviera begin to unravel.

Inspired by Alejandro Dumas' novel, "The Corsican Brothers," the story narrates the intricacies of living on Mars, coupled with the regret over family distance in an era where Earth has achieved ecological stability through terrorist struggle and begins to dismiss the colonization of the Red Planet.

From New York Times bestselling author Bernard Cornwell, comes the first book in the Grail Series—a spellbinding tale of a young man, a fearless archer, who sets out wanting to avenge his family's honor and winds up on a quest for the Holy Grail.

At dawn on Easter morning 1343, a marauding band of French raiders arrives by boat to ambush the coastal English village of Hookton. To brave young Thomas, the only survivor, the horror of the attack is epitomized in the casual savagery of a particular black-clad knight, whose flag—three yellow hawks on a blue field—presides over the bloody affair. As the killers sail away, Thomas vows to avenge the murder of his townspeople and to recapture a holy treasure that the black knight stole from the church.

To do this, Thomas of Hookton must first make his way to France. So, in 1343 he joins the army of King Edward III as it is about to invade the continent—the beginning of the Hundred Years War. A preternaturally gifted bowman, Thomas quickly becomes recognized as one of England's most deadly archers in King Edward's march across France. Yet he never stops scanning the horizon for his true enemy's flag.

When Thomas saves a young Frenchwoman from a bloodthirsty crowd, her father—French nobleman Sir Guillaume d'Evecque—rewards his bravery by joining him in the hunt for the mysterious dark knight and the stolen holy relic. What begins as a search for vengeance will soon prove the beginning of an even higher purpose: the quest for the Holy Grail itself.

How could she ever have a relationship, even a friendship, with anyone, let alone someone so good-looking and altruistic?

Though, it's not all good looks, good deeds and fast cars for Jeremy, whose past still haunts him. Can a horrific event that forces Isabelle out of her home and into Jeremy's spare bedroom teach these two how to live and love?

Dear Reader, If you are looking for a story about cheerful youngsters spending a jolly time at boarding school, look elsewhere.

For the Baudelaires, school turns out to be another miserable episode in their unlucky lives.

Too much time has passed since the powerful dragon Tintaglia helped the people of the Trader cities stave off an invasion of their enemies. The Traders have forgotten their promises, weary of the labor and expense of tending earthbound dragons who were hatched weak and deformed by a river turned toxic. If neglected, the creatures will rampage—or die—so it is decreed that they must move farther upriver toward Kelsingra, the mythical homeland whose location is locked deep within the dragons' uncertain ancestral memories.

Thymara, an unschooled forest girl, and Alise, wife of an unloving and wealthy Trader, are among the disparate group entrusted with escorting the dragons to their new home. And on an extraordinary odyssey with no promise of return, many lessons will be learned—as dragons and tenders alike experience hardships, betrayals... and joys beyond their wildest imaginings.
