Life seems more complicated than ever, but Taylor is soon to find out that it’s worse than even she realises. Her life is in danger but she’s not sure why. Are her suitors more than they appear? And does it all have something to do with an act of kindness towards an injured wolf?

Twenty-year-old Alice Potter leads a pretty average life. She has an okay job, a loyal best friend in Maria, and the affection of her friend, Tyler. She doesn’t expect anything to change, but then James Butler, her high school crush, walks back into her life. James has always had a hold over Alice, and as she finds herself slipping back into the James Butler bubble, her comfortable life begins to turn upside down. But James doesn’t want a relationship, not when he’s leaving town in a couple of months, and while Alice knows that anything between them is short term, she tries to make the most of the time they do have. As Alice grapples between the notion that it’s better to have loved and lost than not loved at all, she fears that what she feels for James isn’t reciprocated, and when he leaves, she will be left worse off than before. A story of longing and first love, Linger will take you on an emotional roller coaster from the first hello, to the last goodbye.

Do you know Nora Hadley? Not many people do, and more and more often these days Nora doesn’t know if she even knows herself. A prude raised by strict Catholic parents to her friends, a student mature beyond her years to her teachers, a responsible daughter to her parents – all of these things fall into freefall as Nora finds herself increasingly fixated on her new literature teacher, William Summers. A desire to get to know the man behind the blackboard outside of school hours and to discuss the virtues of The Wind in the Willows and Romeo and Juliet cascades into a dangerous path of self-discovery with potentially devastating consequences for the staff and students of South Iris High.

What do you do when you lose the person dearest to you? How do you dare to live – let alone love, again? Hope Hadley’s answer to these questions is: you don't. She returns reluctantly to her home town after five years of studying in another part of the country. Jensen, her uncle and only family, is relieved that she’s back but Hope has only one thing on her mind: to get through life one day at a time, with as little emotion as possible. Little does she take into account that life has a way of happening regardless of whether one is an active participant or not. Her strategy to keep all emotional attachments at an arm's length works for a while. That is, until she meets Damon.
