Let Me Hold You
Love in the fast lane In the five years since Alana Sharp Dumond lost her husband, she has remodeled her life. Her vintage car company, Custom Classics, is raking in money. She owns her own home and she has top-of-the-line friends. If she misses the feel of a man's arms around her, she'd never admit it. The shadows from her past are nobody's business but her own. Worldly restaurateur Roland Casey has had his eye on Alana for months, but and now he wants to speed up put their relationship. With his tall, muscled build and cognac-brown eyes, he's never had any trouble romancing a woman—until now. Sultry Alana keeps putting the brakes on all his moves. Roland has no doubt that he can send her temperature racing, but can he mend her once-broken heart?
After Melanie
A moving, emotionally powerful tale about the far-reaching impact of a child's death on a fragile marriage. Can they start again, or will they lose one another forever? David and Judith's fragile marriage is threatened by the sudden death of their beloved thirteen-year-old daughter, Melanie. As they struggle to cope with their loss, they confront bewildering challenges. But instead of turning to each other, they find comfort with others. David is drawn to Nancy, a colleague and single mother, and a survivor of her own personal tragedy, while Judith grows close to Jeffrey, a recently widowed physician whom she meets through her volunteer work at a thrift shop, itself the scene of multiple daily dramas. As their grief drives them further apart, does their future lie together 'after Melanie', or are they destined to lose one another for ever?
Let No One Weep for Me
In these 15 poignant stories, Melanie S. Hatter explores the tenuous hold we have on those we love, the heartache of loss, and the peace of self-discovery. The characters make their way through an often confusing world. They grapple with the complex nature of relationships and struggle to understand their place in such roles as wife, husband, lover, mother, daughter. From the District of Columbia to North Carolina, from Colombia to Italy, each story draws the reader in with crisp writing, rich characters and intimate settings."Melanie Hatter is an adept seer in the manner of Marita Golden and Maxine Clair. Her catchy stories play out in the shadowbox of the heart - familial dramas loaded with emotional spunk and live wires that spit and short out in a burst of fireworks. She plunks us down among generations of women trapped in the fantasy of happily ever, their damaged goods men, their family problems, their schemes, and their despair. These spirited characters, kidnappings, betrayals, obsessions, and losses, resonate long after you close this spectacular book. " ~ Richard Peabody, editor, Gargoyle Magazine
Catch a Fire
In this extraordinary autobiography of "Scary" Spice, Melanie Brown, she covers it all—the council estate childhood, the formation of the Spice Girls, the early months being groomed for stardom, the subsequent global domination, Geri's departure, the marriage and divorce to Jimmy Gulzar, the birth of Phoenix Chi, the solo career, and the leap into TV presenting. Not bad for the rebellious, mixed-up girl from Leeds who is still only in her 20s. Born to a working-class mixed-race family from Leeds, Melanie B grew up feeling different from her schoolfriends. Her hyperactive energy was channelled into drama school, and in 1994 the Spice Girls were formed. The rest is history.

I Don't Care, I'll Be Dead
Melanie Rainier's moving autobiographical expose, I DONT CARE, I'LL BE DEAD, is more than a whistle blowing, family tell-all. In exposing and revealing the seedy underbelly of a lifelong wet, mouldy blanket of scrutiny and judgement, this poignant story uncovers the heinous elements that eventually lead to deeper meaning for a young girl who is seeking the reality of her true self as a woman, wife and mother. Rainier's emotive tale highlights a life, brimming with her family's grotesque dysfunction, lawless moral ineptitude and selfish, petty behaviors that paint a bitter, profane backdrop along a path filled with rejection, tragedy, and death. Impactful, soul stirring accomplishment and personal breakthrough finally bring her to a place where she is left with only one choice: remain forever in the emotional prison or fracture the malignant chains that bind her to the past."
