Drowned World
Drowned World introduces Scott Riley, an ordinary Saskatchewan high school student not only determined to make his mark by writing for Erindale High’s newspaper, but also by making the school basketball team. He ends up becoming friends with Jeremy, the jock who not only is impressed by the story that Scott recently wrote for the paper, but also is willing to help him with his aspirations on the basketball court. Scott is invited to a massive rave called Motion by Nicole, one of Scott’s closest friends and the most popular girl in school. He agrees to go with her and discovers Jeremy there as well, realizing that they share more then just science class and hoop dreams. By the end of the party, they begin to set in motion the events that will change both of their lives forever. Drowned World is Scott’s heartbreaking and exciting story about coming out, lost love and friendship, and being found by both all over again. It is also the first book to also introduce the characters in Scott’s world that would join him for the ride throughout and beyond. A snapshot of queer love in the age of sex, drugs, and techno.

ISS 2 Identity, Education and Belonging
Identity, Education and Belonging examines the social and educational experiences of Arab and Muslim Australian youth against a wider political backdrop. Arab and Muslim Australian youth have long faced considerable social obstacles in their journey towards full integration, but as the discourse of insecurity surrounding these conflicts intensifies, so too do the difficulties they face in Australian society. Events such as the war in Iraq, Australia's presence in Afghanistan and perceptions of Iran as a nuclear threat—together with domestic events such as the Cronulla riots—place Arabs and Muslims at the centre of global instability and exacerbate feelings of tension and anxiety. At a time when fear and confusion permeate their experiences, Identity, Education and Belonging is an all-important study of the lives of Muslim and Arab youth in Australia.
Island Haven
Mercedes Stone has no time for men. Between caring for her sick grandmother, running her own business and volunteering at her family's women's shelter she barely has time for herself. So dating a man as complicated as Scott Pataki is definitely out of the question. That doesn't mean she'll turn her back on Scott's pregnant teenage sister. Even if helping her does put Mercedes dangerously close to the temptation that is Scott. It's not just the killer abs and dimples that make him so irresistible. It's the man she sees when his guard is down. If only she could help him realize the importance of family. And remind herself that his family doesn't include her.

Dark Drone
A MISSING MILITARY SECRET … A RUTHLESS ADVERSARY … A RACE AGAINST TIME When a space-based drone conveying part of an orbital defense system plummets into the Caribbean, the U.S. military scrambles to retrieve their missing tech. The nearest vessel to the crash site is Ryan Weller’s personal catamaran, and the top brass waste no time in enlisting Ryan’s help in diving for the drone. Determined as ever, Ryan locates the missing UAV, but before he and his colleagues at Dark Water Research can raise it from the ocean floor, they come under fire from a detachment of Chinese Special Forces intent on securing the satellite for their own use. With multiple parties now staking their claim to the satellite—and a Chinese submarine stalking the Caribbean—Ryan is once more thrust into the thick of things in a race to return Project Thor to U.S. soil. Failure would mean handing China the ability to undermine the United States, and that’s not a price Ryan is willing to pay. But the Chinese have ideas of their own …
The Tycoon's Blondie
“Our relationship is inevitable. The sooner you realize and accept it, the better.” Allison Hadley did not entertain Tiaan Sheppard when he made that statement. He was a notorious bachelor. A skirt-chaser of note and his exploits had been splashed all over the media. No, she burned her fingers once before and she had no intention of repeating that embarrassing mistake. Tiaan Sheppard was the co-owner of the most sought after auditing firm in the US and he wanted the beautiful, luscious Orthodontic surgeon from the moment he first met her. So much so, that he booked an appointment under an assumed name and ended up drinking whiskey out of a straw at dinner. Sparks ignited between the two and they soon became lovers, but fate has a way of intervening when least expected. This time fate intervened cruelly, threatening their relationship and testing the strength of their new-found love.
