** Nights of Rain and Stars **


Title: Nights of Rain and Stars
Author: Maeve Binchy
Condition: New, Excellent
MYR 20

Four strangers meet in a Greek taverna high above the small village of Aghia Anna. From Ireland, America, Germany and England, they have each left their homes and their old lives, when a shocking tragedy throws them unexpectedly together.
Fiona is trying to make her family understand her need to follow her own path. Thomas desperately misses his young son and fears that his ex-wife will come between them. Elsa abandoned a successful career, but someone from her past refuses to let her go. And shy, quiet David is determined to make a stand against his overbearing father.
Nights of Rain and Stars is the story of one summer and four people, each with a life in turmoil. With the help of Vonni, an Irish woman who lives in the village and is now a near-native, they find solutions - though not necessarily the ones they anticipated.

How does it feel to live and work in one of the most beautiful and luxurious tropical island resorts in the world? Your office is a white sandy beach. You daily commute is past aquamarine seas. How do you maintain the lap of luxury when you're thousands of miles from anywhere? How do you keep some of the richest and most demanding people in the world in call-girls and champagne? And where the hell do you find the energy every day to smile, smile and smile again?
Beach Babylon takes you behind the scenes at a six-star tropical island resort. What do the world's richest people expect during their fortnight in paradise? What happens when the Dom Perignon runs out? What happens when the sun refuses to shine? How do you keep a jaded oligarch happy? Do all the massages in the exclusive spa have happy endings?

** Hotel Babylon **


Title: Hotel Babylon
Author: Imogen Edwards-Jones
Book Condition: Excellent
MYR15


Something strange occurs to people as soon as they check into a luxury hotel. Otherwise well mannered, decent folk cast their scruples aside as they spin through the revolving doors. Normal rules og behaviour no longer seem to apply.
Everything you read in Hotel Babylon is true. Only the names have been changed to protect the guilty. All the anecdotes, the characters, the highs, the lows, the drugs, the seams, the misery and the debauchery are exactly as experienced by Anonymous - someone who has spent his entire career working in some of the most luxurious hotels in London. However, for legal reasons, the stories now take place in the fictional Hotel Babylon. More than a decade is compressed into twenty-four hours. Everything else is as it should be. The rich spend obscene amounts of money, the hotel makes obscene amounts of money and the chambermaids still fight the bellboys over a two-pound coin.

Mel and Fran can't believe it when their old schoolfriend Amanda, Satan's very own PR girl, pulls off the ultimate publicity stunt in getting herself engaged to a Scottish laird.
Who cares that Fraser McConnald has worn the same pair of Converse trainers for the last three years and that his castle is a pile of rubble with one Calor Gas heater - she'll be titled!
Gentle, decent Fraser is clearly ignorant of her wiles, and Mel and Fran, still smarting from the memory of all the mean things Amanda put them through in their days at Portmount Comprehensive, set out to sabotage this mismatch of the century.
So between fighting off the attentions of a love-crazed accountant, keeping Fran's deadly manoeuvres with the opposite sex under control and trying to win her own war of love with the elusive but gorgeous Alex, Mel finds herself attending a wild Scottish stag night, a hen night from hell, and preparing for a wedding that's everything you'd wish on your worst enemy.
