Across an empty laneway in Paris, through my hotel window, He saw me first.I stopped undressing . . . but only for a moment.The next night, he was waiting for me.He sat there in his expensive suit and watched.No participation.My only acknowledgement was the look of lust in his eyes.It continued until the night before I left, when I found a card under my door.No words. Just a number. So, I texted him.I'd never done anything like it before.It felt so dirty and wrong, but at the same time, I felt alive.He was much older than me, so intimidating and sexy.He made me feel things no man ever has.I was under his spell.The last thing I expected was to ever see him again.

I'm in the small town of Ravish Oregon where nobody can hide. I've come here for a reason . . . and I'm not going to run anymore . . . My world is full of secrets and power that people want to pretend doesn't exist. I'm the girl from a respectful family, the girl photographed, the girl who is envied. If only all of those people knew the truth of what happens behind closed doors of the perfect world that was crafted for me. They wouldn't be jealous anymore. None of that matters now. That's my past. I've paid my price, and now I simply want to be free. I want what was taken from me. I was shrouded in a world of darkness, and now I'm a new woman with a purpose no one will stop me from getting. Some might judge me for doing what I needed to do to survive, but that's okay. I don't care. My past is wiped clean, but the things that happened will forever haunt me. I know that as much as I don't want to think of my past, I'd be a fool to think it can't ever hurt me . . . I know too much. I also want what was taken from me. Am I a fool? Maybe. Who can I trust? Nobody. Especially not . . . him . . .

Safety is something every child should feel, and count on. It's a tragic thing to grow up never feeling safe in your own home. This is not a story about a poverty stricken waif who escaped the mean streets of Philly, or the absurd insanity of a life of hedonistic wealth; Peg is a product of a 'normal' middle class, cookie-cutter family from the 1950's, whose life appeared average in every way-except it wasn't. Although looking happy and wholesome on the outside, insidious things were happening on the inside, which makes her tale even more of a wake-up call to all the 'normal' people out there who can't understand why they are full of rage, or guilt, or low self-esteem. Living through Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Peg has a unique, even humorous way of telling her story, while offering hope to all who are suffering. She is living proof that you can live through hell and get better instead of bitter and shows the reader not only how to survive, but how to thrive. This is a true story of the goodness of God. It is a story of faith, hope and love; and how anyone's heart can be healed. From childhood abuse, to an unwilling immersion into the kingdom of darkness, I Saw the Light... But HE Saw Me First is a beacon of hope for anyone who has suffered emotional or physical abuse, rejection, or abandonment.

With his stunning debut novel, She's Come Undone, Wally Lamb won the adulation of critics and readers with his mesmerizing tale of one woman's painful yet triumphant journey of self-discovery. Now, this brilliantly talented writer returns with I Know This Much Is True, a heartbreaking and poignant multigenerational saga of the reproductive bonds of destruction and the powerful force of forgiveness. A masterpiece that breathtakingly tells a story of alienation and connection, power and abuse, devastation and renewal--this novel is a contemporary retelling of an ancient Hindu myth. A proud king must confront his demons to achieve salvation. Change yourself, the myth instructs, and you will inhabit a renovated world. When you're the same brother of a schizophrenic identical twin, the tricky thing about saving yourself is the blood it leaves on your bands--the little inconvenience of the look-alike corpse at your feet. And if you're into both survival of the fittest and being your brother's keeper--if you've promised your dying mother--then say so long to sleep and hello to the middle of the night. Grab a book or a beer. Get used to Letterman's gap-toothed smile of the absurd, or the view of the bedroom ceiling, or the influence of random selection. Take it from a godless insomniac. Take it from the uncrazy twin--the guy who beat the biochemical rap. Dominick Birdsey's entire life has been compromised and constricted by anger and fear, by the paranoid schizophrenic twin brother he both deeply loves and resents, and by the past they shared with their adoptive father, Ray, a spit-and-polish ex-Navy man (the five-foot-six-inch sleeping giant who snoozed upstairs weekdays in the spare room and built submarines at night), and their long-suffering mother, Concettina, a timid woman with a harelip that made her shy and self-conscious: She holds a loose fist to her face to cover her defective mouth--her perpetual apology to the world for a birth defect over which she'd had no control. Born in the waning moments of 1949 and the opening minutes of 1950, the twins are physical mirror images who grow into separate yet connected entities: the seemingly strong and protective yet fearful Dominick, his mother's watchful "monkey"; and the seemingly weak and sweet yet noble Thomas, his mother's gentle "bunny." From childhood, Dominick fights for both separation and wholeness--and ultimately self-protection--in a house of fear dominated by Ray, a bully who abuses his power over these stepsons whose biological father is a mystery. I was still afraid of his anger but saw how he punished weakness--pounced on it. Out of self-preservation I hid my fear, Dominick confesses. As for Thomas, he just never knew how to play defense. He just didn't get it. But Dominick's talent for survival comes at an enormous cost, including the breakup of his marriage to the warm, beautiful Dessa, whom he still loves. And it will be put to the ultimate test when Thomas, a Bible-spouting zealot, commits an unthinkable act that threatens the tenuous balance of both his and Dominick's lives. To save himself, Dominick must confront not only the pain of his past but the dark secrets he has locked deep within himself, and the sins of his ancestors--a quest that will lead him beyond the confines of his blue-collar New England town to the volcanic foothills of Sicily 's Mount Etna, where his ambitious and vengefully proud grandfather and a namesake Domenico Tempesta, the sostegno del famiglia, was born. Each of the stories Ma told us about Papa reinforced the message that he was the boss, that he ruled the roost, that what he said went. Searching for answers, Dominick turns to the whispers of the dead, to the pages of his grandfather's handwritten memoir, The History of Domenico Onofrio Tempesta, a Great Man from Humble Beginnings. Rendered with touches of magic realism, Domenico's fablelike tale--in which monkeys enchant and religious statues weep--becomes the old man's confession--an unwitting legacy of contrition that reveals the truth's of Domenico's life, Dominick learns that power, wrongly used, defeats the oppressor as well as the oppressed, and now, picking through the humble shards of his deconstructed life, he will search for the courage and love to forgive, to expiate his and his ancestors' transgressions, and finally to rebuild himself beyond the haunted shadow of his twin. Set against the vivid panoply of twentieth-century America and filled with richly drawn, memorable characters, this deeply moving and thoroughly satisfying novel brings to light humanity's deepest needs and fears, our aloneness, our desire for love and acceptance, our struggle to survive at all costs. Joyous, mystical, and exquisitely written, I Know This Much Is True is an extraordinary reading experience that will leave no reader untouched.

One punch will shatter a town. Is anyone ready for the consequences of the truth? Callie Jones is not the kind of girl who gets drunk at school dances, and certainly not now, with her scholarship on the line. And she definitely doesn't hang around with bad boys like Rhett Barker. Especially alone, at night. But these are the circumstances she finds herself in when she witnesses a king hit that lands the town's golden boy in a coma. With his reputation, no one is less surprised than Rhett when he is accused of throwing the punch. But he didn't do it. And he knows Callie saw what really went down. He just has to convince the 'ice princess' to come forward and talk to the police – except, for once, good girl Callie doesn't seem all that interested in telling the truth. Just what is she hiding, and why? Drawn together by secrets, scandal and heartache, Callie and Rhett find themselves getting closer – even as the solution to their problems gets further away.
