We Are the Stars
Gina Chick, the inaugural winner of Alone Australia, tells the story of her extraordinary, indomitable life in one of the most powerful, moving memoirs you will ever read. From day one of her wildly unconventional childhood, Gina Chick blazed her own trail, which led her to dance through the hidden world of ’90s Sydney nightlife into the arms of a conman. She fled to the wilderness to find healing, began a wondrous love affair with the deepest lessons life – and death – can offer, and found that all the answers are written in the wisdom of the body and the whirling silence of stars. If you’re ready to get lost in jungles, wander into wolf-dens, sing with storms, rescue orphaned animals, dive to the depths, dance ’til your knees wobble, fall in love, find yourself by losing it all, and most of all be real; this book is for you. We Are the Stars is a magic carpet ride through the exquisite mystery of the human heart. You’ve never read anything like it.

The Outcasters
Since 1995, I set out as an artist to create characters who were hideous, strange and did not fit within the normal boundaries of a modern society. The Circus Freaks, my 1st creations, are such examples of de-humanizing humans, placing them in a world where they are not accepted by the majority and must push their way uphill to gain power. After 15 years of creating many people, places and things based on the real world, publishing books, including this one, I came to an epiphany. Who you are in relation to someone else depends not on skin color, age, religion, sexual preference, language, biology, country or planet. These short stories contain individual lives of those you are familiar with in one social category or another as opposed to those of your neighbor, family member, significant partner, your enemies, and those unlikely youve never met. In the end, a world, a galaxy of prosperity comes with the efforts of all who are related because they are unrelated and thats exactly what this book is about. --Maestro Drake
Flower Moon
Tally Jo and Tempest Trimble are mirror twins, so alike they were almost born the same person. Inseparable, but more than that. Connected. That is, until this summer. The twins are traveling with Pa Charlie’s carnival just like always, but there’s a new distance between them. Tempest is so caught up in her own ideas, she doesn’t seem to have space left in her life for Tally. And, more than that, Tally’s started to notice there’s something between them. Something real, growing with the phases of the moon, pushing them apart. Sparking, sputtering, wild. Dangerous. With the full moon approaching, Tally knows it’s up to her to find out what’s going on—and to beat it. If she can’t, she might just lose her sister. Forever. For fans of Savvy and A Snicker of Magic, this is a spellbinding story of friendship and family—a poignant ode to both what’s worth holding on to and what we have to let go.
Calendar Girl Anthology
Volume One: Mia Saunders needs money. A lot of money. She has one year to pay off the loan shark who has threatened her father’s life and is coming after his unpaid gambling debts. One million dollars to be exact. Her mission is simple—serve as a high-priced escort for her aunt’s Los Angeles-based company and pay monthly against the debt. Spend a month with a rich man whom she doesn’t have to sleep with if she doesn’t want to? Easy money. Unlucky in love with a spirit that never gives up, this curvy motorcycle-riding vixen plans to get in, make her money, and get out. Part of that goal is keeping her heart locked up tight and her eye on the prize. At least that’s the way it’s s...
Keep It Smooth
A memoir from veteran entertainer Cameron Daddo about confidence: how we nurture it, how we lose it and how we can get it back again Multi-talented Cameron Daddo has been a part of the Australian entertainment scene since the late '80s. But you might be surprised to learn that, despite appearances, he grew up lacking confidence. He was a stutterer as a kid, then a restless student and uni dropout, before going on to build a life in showbiz. In this memoir, Cameron shares the valuable lessons he's learnt along the way, some very publicly: the rejections, the victories and everything in between. Through a series of intimate conversations, he also explores public and private crises in the lives of extraordinary Australians, including Keith Urban and Marcia Hines, Michael O'Loughlin and Ryan 'Fitzy' Fitzgerald, Indira Naidoo and Alyssa Healy. Inspiring and empowering, Keep It Smooth shows us how to rally when we feel we have nothing left to give, and how we can learn to find confidence within.
Violet Made of Thorns
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A darkly enchanting fantasy about a lying witch, a cursed prince, and a sinister prophecy that ignites their doomed destinies—perfect for fans of The Cruel Prince. “Everything you want from an enemies-to-lovers fantasy starring morally gray characters.”—BuzzFeed Violet is a prophet and a liar, influencing the royal court with her cleverly phrased—and not always true—divinations. Honesty is for suckers, like the oh-so-not charming Prince Cyrus, who plans to strip Violet of her official role once he’s crowned at the end of the summer—unless Violet does something about it. But when the king asks her to falsely prophesy Cyrus's love story for an upco...
