Carter bought his way out of the mafia to protect Emma, but when an old ghost returns to the Mauricio Family, a chain of events starts that can harm everyone.

She's given the chance to discover more about her family while tensions between the rivaling Mauricio and Bertal Family comes to a head in an explosive way.

Kiedy w jej życiu pojawia się tajemnicza kobieta, która twierdzi, że jest dla Emmy kimś bliskim, dziewczyna nie wie, czy może jej zaufać. Do tej pory nauczyła się bowiem jednego – dla niektórych ludzi nie istnieją reguły, których nie można złamać.

New school. New friendships. New life. Not so much. Alexandra is pissed about her parents abandoning her. She's beyond pissed that her friends did the same. She's enraged because things are unclear about her brother's death now. So her first stop is at Jesse's house to demand answers. She wants to know why her brother was friends with the criminal crowd before he died and she knows he holds the answers. But when she sees him, she doesn't get the answers she expected. Instead, she finds out that their chemistry never faded and soon heats up again! Some habits die hard. Soon Jesse and Alex are back to their ways of sneaking around. He's a near-celebrity at school and she doesn't want to deal with the backlash of being his girlfriend. Alex is tired of being hurt so she's learned the lesson not to confide and lean on others. However, she can't seem to help herself when it comes to Jesse Hunt. The big question isn't if she will survive if their relationship goes public, it's if she will survive when the real truths about her family and brother come out? Or when she learns that Jesse knows more than what he's told her?

Sheldon, Bryce, and Corrigan ruled their school until a killer wanted to rule them. A year later and they're all back. Bryce is the local celebrity jock. Corrigan's running a fraternity and Sheldon's hiding from all drama. However, she's quickly pulled back into their social world and accidents start happening. With the killer killed, who's trying to hurt Sheldon this time? Or maybe it's someone closer than she wants to admit?

Delving into firsthand accounts, rediscovering evocative imagery, and intricately weaving together long-forgotten details about the Sanitariums of Lake Geneva, including insights into their founders, staff, and patients, Sonja Akright has vividly captured the intrigue – and enduring legacy – of these once-venerated, now-vanished institutions.
