Life, love and laughter amongst the orchards. Two multi-generational feel-good stories set in the dramatically beautiful Adelaide Hills and featuring cherries, apples and pears, koalas and kangaroos. Add love and romance and what more could you ask? Cherry Season is Dan Faraday’s story. Serious by nature and seriously single, Dan’s not impressed when his sisters subscribe him to a dating service – it’s not like he needs help or anything – he just needs to find a seriously sensible woman. Enter Lucy Marino – US backpacker and Dan’s latest cherry picker – and who is everything Dan’s not looking for in a wife. Unfortunately for Dan that doesn’t stop the sparks from flying between them, and when spark turns to sizzle, watch out Dan! The Trouble with Choices. Dan’s three sisters, school teacher Sophie, and twins Hannah and Beth, are all about to discover that life doesn’t always go to plan, and that choices come with consequences. It could all turn to custard – if they didn’t have their sisters to turn to. From the Readers – “What a great read full of likeable characters and laugh -out-loud moments. I could not pick which character was my fave, they were all entertaining in their own way, even serious Hannah :)” – Talking Books “A lot of the subjects addressed are pretty serious but Morey's characters all have a great sense of humour so the story has it's share of light-hearted moments and amusement. I really enjoyed this story of family, of moving forward, of letting go and of realising that you are worth it and you deserve happiness. A beautiful story complete with weddings, babies and an unexpected litter of kittens. I would definitely recommend this book.” – Beauty and Lace “Cherry Season is a fun, fast paced modern romance. Wonderful characters, gorgeously portrayed setting and lovely story. My home town even gets a mention. Highly recommended read.” – Noelene

With her mother often away, her aunts took turns looking after her–until, just weeks before Maggie’s sixth birthday, a shocking event changed everything. Twenty years later, Maggie is living alone in New York City when she receives a surprise visit from her grandfather Leo, who brings a revelation and a proposition: He’s preparing a special gift for his daughters and needs Maggie’s help. When the Faradays gather from all parts of the world to celebrate Christmas in July–a longstanding tradition–Maggie uncovers unexpected family history and learns that the women she thought she knew so intimately all have something to hide.

On a sunny August afternoon in 1852, on the northern coast of Lake Erie, two dozen bodies from the ill-fated Atlantic Paddle Steamer shipwreck washed ashore and were rapidly retrieved from their watery graves by pioneer farmers homesteading on the Long Point peninsula. Some passenger did survive to tell their stories. While the Long Point families were most receptive to guiding and supporting some of these survivors with what was left of their tattered lives, they never could have imagined how their own lives would be so intimately affected by these destitute survivors. For Mary O'Malley and her three small children, her quest to discover the fate of her missing husband would take a devastating and surprising turn. Fellow passengers, Toby Ryan, a restless 19 year old Irish immigrant had stored up enough hate, revenge and anger to keep him afloat for as long as it took, the deadly consequences of his own unfinished business hanging precariously in the balance.

New York Times bestselling author John Connolly writes an “unfailingly compelling” (New Orleans Times-Picayune) and lyrical tale that forces Private Investigator Charlie Parker to examine his haunting past and all that he has ever believed true about his beloved parents—and himself. Charlie Parker is a lost soul. Deprived of his private investigator's license and under scrutiny by the police, Parker takes a job in a Portland bar. But he uses his enforced retirement to begin a different kind of investigation: an examination of his own past and an inquiry into the death of his father, who took his own life after apparently shooting dead two unarmed teenagers. It's a search that will eventually lead Parker to question all that he believed about his beloved parents, and about himself. But there are other forces at work: a troubled young woman who is running from an unseen threat, one that has already taken the life of her boyfriend; and a journalist-turned-writer named Mickey Wallace, who is conducting an investigation of his own. And haunting the shadows, as they have done throughout Parker's life, are two figures: a man and a woman who seem driven to bring an end to Charlie Parker's existence. Haunting, lyrical, and impossible to put down, The Lovers is John Connolly at his best.
