Story4.5 out of 5 stars 10
The Tar storyline continues as Emilia Augustine is distraught over Spike's crimes and jets off to Iceland to distract herself with a winter road trip around the frozen bitter country. The first book in the Tar collection showcased the origin of a strange new drug and it's connection to an ancient myth. The Tarmaker is about realization and confrontation, asking who you can truly trust, and what lies beneath lust, love, and betrayal. Emilia, Spike, Willem, Mick, and Marjo are all in for a curious ride.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 6,387
It all started with a mysterious blue note sewn into a wedding dress. Something blue. I’d gone to sell my own unworn bridal gown at a vintage clothing store. That’s when I found another bride’s “something old". Stitched into the lining of a fabulously feathered design was the loveliest message I’d ever read: Thank you for making all of my dreams come true.

Money or love? Which would you choose? You probably just answered the question in your head, thinking it's an easy decision. For me, it's not. Did I mention it's a lot of money? A hell of a lot. I needed to go far away to think it through. As I embarked on an impulsive trip, I hit a detour when I met sexy Carter in the airport lounge. We struck up a heated conversation. Then, he left. I thought I'd never see him again. But fate had other plans. Surprise! He was the pilot of my flight.

Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.
