In this twisty, compelling thriller, a young woman quickly embarks on what she thinks is the relationship and love of a lifetime, when her new husband insists they follow one rule: they don’t talk about the past. But it’s a rule that has dangerous consequences.

Is her new husband hiding. something?

Caught up in a whirlwind romance that starts in sunny Ibiza and leads to the cool corridors of a luxurious English country estate, Poppy barely has time to catch her breath, let alone seriously question if all this is too good to be true. Drew is enamored, devoted, and, okay, a little mysterious—but that’s part of the thrill. What’s the harm in letting his past remain private?

Maybe he’s not the only one…

Fortunately, Drew never seems to wonder why his young wife has so readily agreed to their unusual pact to live only in the here and now and not probe their personal histories. Perhaps he assumes, as others do, that she is simply swept up in the intoxication of infatuation and sudden wealth. What’s the harm in letting them believe that?

How far will they go to keep the past buried?

In this fascinating biography, the acclaimed author of E=mc2 reveals that in spite of his indisputable brilliance, Albert Einstein found himself ignored by most working scientists during the final decades of his life, his ideas opposed by even his closest friends. How did this happen?

Einstein revolutionized our understanding of the cosmos with his general theory of relativity, and helped lead us into the atomic age. This book goes beyond his remarkable intellect and accomplishments to examine the man himself, from the skeptical, erratic student to the world’s greatest physicist to the fallen-from-grace celebrity.

An intimate biography that “imparts fresh insight into the genius—and failures—of the 20th century’s most celebrated scientist,” Einstein’s Greatest Mistake reveals what we owe Einstein today—and how much more he might have achieved if not for his all-too-human flaws.

It didn’t take long for the quirky beach town of Tarpon Cove to figure out that I’m the girl who can’t say no.

Not to someone needing a free ride to the probation office. Not to Glock-rocking Fab when she needs backup. Definitely not to sexy P.I. Zach when he’s between jobs.

Not even to my ex, Jax, who’s parked his sorry butt on my couch–and involved me in an underhanded scheme that starts with laying claim to half my inherited Florida Keys house. Skirting the edges of the law is a time-honored tradition in Tarpon Cove, but I never thought I’d be needing a lawyer quite so soon.

True to form, Jax has befriended some local bottom feeders, and now one of them is missing.

Something’s fishy, or someone’s sleeping with the fishes. Either way, one thing’s for sure: it’s brought one of my Cottage tenants out of the shadows. And my love life is about to get way more complicated…
