The plot is cleverly constructed, the story spectacularly written, keeping you on your toes till the very - and shocking - end. A psychological thriller in the truest sense of the word. Highly recommended!

Here's the set-up:
One October morning, Melissa watches a breaking news story on
television. A young girl has been filmed by bystanders, committing a
brutal assault in broad daylight in a downtown Vancouver Starbucks … and
it looks like the girl is her daughter.
From this moment on, a story unfolds, so shocking, that it will hold
you captive and you will find yourself reading faster and faster into
the night.
Helga Zeiner, a 5-star bestselling Amazon author, delivers yet again
an impeccably researched thriller—this time one that takes you into the
complex world of child beauty pageants—with an ingenious plot. Just
when you think you know the ending … read on, the ultimate surprise
waits at the end of the thrill-ride.
One Reviewer Notes:
If you like page-turners this is one for you! I really enjoyed the characters and found the story compelling. While parts of it were pretty dark I just couldn't put it down and the ending was really quite shocking. I also loved that is was set in my hometown of Vancouver so I could imagine all of the locations. GREAT READ.

Here’s the set-up:
This is the first volume in a set of four short stories, with all stories revolving around the same theme. Each short story is independent, and don’t feature the same characters as the others. They do not need to be read in any order, and because they are all independent of one another, you won’t miss anything by skipping certain volumes.

Here’s the set-up:
In the first book of the ‘Sometimes love …’ series, ‘Dating in the Dark: sometimes love just pretends to be blind’, Jason Harding thought he’d committed the ultimate betrayal. No, not cheating; he pretended to be, you guessed it, blind. For Emma, the woman he was stupid enough to think he was fooling, it wasn’t anything like a betrayal. It was both sweet and sad at the same time and, as people in relationships have a tendency to do (if they don’t split up because of one party’s wild lies), Emma and Jason decide to get married.

Luca Bosurgi defines for the first time codependency as a natural and healthy instinct until the age of puberty when it is supposed to release itself.
