Carys Jones
Author Bio:
Carys Jones loves nothing more than to write and
create stories which ignite the reader's imagination.
Based in Shropshire, England, Carys lives with her husband, two guinea pigs and her adored canine companion Rollo.
Based in Shropshire, England, Carys lives with her husband, two guinea pigs and her adored canine companion Rollo.
When she's not writing, Carys likes to indulge her inner geek by watching
science- fiction films or playing video games.
She lists John Green, Jodi Picoult and Virginia Andrews as her favorite authors
and draws inspiration for her own work from anything and everything.
To Carys, there is no greater feeling then when you lose yourself in a great
story and it is that feeling of ultimate escapism which she tries to bring to
her books.

Aiden Connelly’s first case will be one he’ll
never forget.
Lawyer Aiden Connelly has traded the frenzy of Chicago for a slower pace in
sleepy Avalon – and his first case appears to be as open-and-shut as he could
hope for. Hired to defend a local ex-beauty queen accused of murdering her
husband, he’s confident that he’ll have the case closed in record time. But
below the surface lurks a darker truth…
Suddenly, a quiet backwater has transformed into a dangerous pressure cooker.
In a town where everyone knows everyone, gathering evidence should be easy… but
the harder Aiden searches, the more he appreciates how tangled this net of
loyalties is. And as he digs deeper, Aiden begins to realise that his very
first case in Avalon could be the beginning of his undoing…

John Quinn,
an investigative journalist on England’s biggest-selling and most notorious
tabloid newspaper, is about to write the story of his life – a kiss-and-tell
with one of the country’s most powerful men at its heart. But the story dies
when Lorna Thomas, the kiss in his kiss-and-tell, kills herself on a quiet
country road.
Unable to accept her twin’s suicide, Laurie Thomas follows in her
sister’s footsteps to London and to the heart of government. And as she becomes
more involved in Lorna’s world, she grows more convinced than ever that Lorna
did not take her own life.
But if Lorna didn’t kill herself, who did?

"The world was going to end. Of that, Maggie
Trafford was certain." Fourteen-year-old Maggie Trafford leads a normal
life. Well, as normal as being crammed in a three-bedroom house with four
siblings and a single parent can be, anyway. But despite being somewhat ignored
at home, Maggie excels, earning top grades, a best friend who would do anything
for her, and stolen looks from a boy in Maths. It's not until the dreams start
that Maggie realizes "normal" is the least of her problems. Every
night, she lives the same nightmare-red lightning, shattered glass,
destruction. But nightmares are just that, right? No one believes her when she
says it's an omen. At least, not until the already mysterious pillars of
Stonehenge start falling. No longer alone in her fear, Maggie and the world
watch with bated breath as one after another, the historic stones tumble, like
a clock counting down. But only Maggie knows what it means: when the last stone
falls, destruction will reign. And when the world ends, there's only one option
left-survive. Horrifying and raw, Dare to Dream is equal parts tragedy and
hope, detailing the aftermath of apocalyptic catastrophe, the quest for
survival, and the importance of belief.
