Nine students. Three bloodsports. One deadly weekend. A twisting thriller for fans of Looking for Alaska. It is the autumn term and Greer MacDonald is struggling to settle into the sixth form at the exclusive St. Aidan the Great boarding school, known to its privileged pupils as S.T.A.G.S. Just when she despairs of making friends Greer receives a mysterious invitation with three words embossed upon on it: huntin' shootin' fishin'. When Greer learns that the invitation is to spend the half term weekend at the country manor of Henry de Warlencourt, the most popular and wealthy boy at S.T.A.G.S., she is as surprised as she is flattered. But when Greer joins the other chosen few at the ancient and sprawling Longcross Hall, she realises that Henry's parents are not at home; the only adults present are a cohort of eerily compliant servants. The students are at the mercy of their capricious host, and, over the next three days, as the three bloodsports - hunting, shooting and fishing - become increasingly dark and twisted, Greer comes to the horrifying realisation that those being hunted are not wild game, but the very misfits Henry has brought with him from school...

For single mum Maggie, Christmas has always been a family occasion - her daughter Ellen filling the house with her bubbly warmth and mistletoe, her dad Paddy having one too many festive tipples, and the traditional family Christmas tree looking like a drunken elf vomited a rainbow all over it. But this year, with both Ellen and Paddy away for the holidays, Maggie's facing a truly blue Christmas - alone with nothing but a bottle of Baileys and an M&S turkey dinner. Until walking the snowy streets of Oxford, Marco Cavelli quite literally crashes into her life - and, complete with broken leg, becomes her unexpected houseguest. All dreamy brown eyes and 6'5" of gorgeousness, the man is hotter and more delicious than a freshly baked mince pie. Though Maggie always thought it's a truth universally acknowledged that you never kiss a man in a Christmas jumper!

Love Comets is a compelling story of intense, tempestuous and raw teenage passions. Set mainly in a Manchester suburb in the late 1960s, it follows the fluctuating fortunes of a group of sex-starved boys, friends from grammar school, who are desperate to lose their virginity before going to university. Central to the novel is Joe’s relationship with Katie. Captivated by her radiant beauty, vivaciousness and sharp wit, his shyness recedes as their love blossoms. Overcoming parental restrictions and painful emotional crises, they engage joyously in tender sexual intimacies as their romance flourishes. But, after a summer of carefree loving, ominous shadows threaten their idyllic love affair as they depart to different universities. Will their love for each other survive separation? When attractive and sexually confident university friends compete for their affections, how will they react? Will Joe and Katie still be together after an emotionally turbulent term? And when the group of friends meet up again on New Year’s Eve and compare their sexual experiences, will their feisty girlfriends have proved a match for them all? Love Comets vividly portrays the excitement and vulnerability of teenage lovers as the sexual revolution of the 1960s gathers pace. Full of unexpected twists and turns, dramatic revelations, humorous exchanges and true-to-life sexual discoveries, Love Comets will appeal strongly to teenagers exploring their first loving relationships and also older readers recalling fondly their first loves.
