Would you drop everything and move to a town with a peculiar name, because an odd little man made you a strange offer?
Millie Thorn did, and she could never have guessed what mysteries and revelations were awaiting her in the magical town of Spellbinder Bay.
After witnessing a murder on her first day in the bay, Millie is cast into a world she never knew existed-a world of magic and the paranormal, and a world where it's seemingly normal to have a conversation with a cockatiel named Reuben.
Learning she is a witch becomes relatively simple to accept after discovering what other paranormal creatures populate the town, and with ever more mysterious clues about her life coming to light, it's not just a murder she must solve. She must discover who she is, and why she feels like she's been to the town before. Is it just dejà vu? Millie isn't so sure.
With talk of another dimension known as The Chaos, and with an unlikely board of directors running the local school-there's a lot for Millie to learn, and should she decide to stay in town-a lot for her to accept, too.
Did Millie make the correct decision when she decided to move to the bay? Only time will tell.
“A brilliant, breathless thriller that kept me guessing to the last shocking page.” —Erin Kelly, Sunday Times bestselling author of He Said/She Said
An Amazon Charts and Washington Post bestseller.
It was supposed to be the perfect reunion: six university friends together again after twenty years. Host Ali finally has the life she always wanted, a career she can be proud of and a wonderful family with her college boyfriend, now husband. But that night her best friend makes an accusation so shocking that nothing will ever be the same again.
When Karen staggers in from the garden, bleeding and traumatised, she claims that she has been assaulted—by Ali’s husband, Mike. Ali must make a split-second decision: who should she believe? Her horrified husband, or her best friend? With Mike offering a very different version of events, Ali knows one of them is lying—but which? And why?
When the ensuing chaos forces her to re-examine the golden era the group shared at university, Ali realises there are darker memories too. Memories that have lain dormant for decades. Memories someone would kill to protect.
Pride and Prejudice lovers who enjoyed To Have His Cake (and Eat It Too) won't want to miss what happens next.
Now that the honeymoon is over, will Darcy and Elizabeth's love for each other survive the difficult times that an unequal alliance will surely bring? Or will those who insist on tearing them apart win the battle?
What Listeners Said:
'I love Ms. Hewitt's ability to draw you in when speaking Ms. Dixon's heartwarming, engaging dialogue! This is book two of three. I absolutely love this trilogy!!!'
'While listening to Ms Hewitt's outstanding performance in reading 'What He Would Not Do,' I am not doing mundane everyday activities, rather I am transported to a time long since past. I am wearing flowing gowns and attending balls! Ms Dixon's sweeping landscape is made vividly real by this narrator's rich and authentic vocal talent. Her accents are flawless.'
'The three stories in this trilogy are ones that I have read and listened to over and over again!! It is a GREAT three-story arc — a MUST read!!'
Unwanted and unloved as a child, Natalie Parsons longs to escape from the moral restraints of her foster family and embark on a life of boozing and floozing at Edinburgh University.

She drifts ever deeper into drink, debt, and depravity until she hits a rock that sinks her in a life-threatening depression. Rescue comes through a friend who claims to know God, producing a dilemma that only a miracle can solve.
Terrible T-shirts, cheeky chat-up lines, and a demonic double bed spice an emotional roller coaster of university life that ends in love when Natalie finally discovers who she is.

To capture the most eligible bachelor in London . . .
London, 1838
The handsome Earl of Somersby may just be the most eligible bachelor in London, but has no interest in a wife. As a member of the Brotherhood, Bennett Haile is far more vested in his undercover duties for the crown and protecting the Queen from would-be assassins. For now he has the perfect tool with which to lure out the villains-a young woman with an uncanny likeness to the queen.
The spirited Evelyn Marrington is about to live out every country girl's dream-becoming royalty overnight. Under the tutelage of the arrogant Earl of Somersby, she'll have to fool the entire court that she is, in fact, the queen. But as danger threatens from every side, Bennett realizes that his lovely little protege isn't just placing her life in his hands . . .
She's stealing his heart.

With two proposals in one day—which offer will Miss Elizabeth Bennet choose? Marriage to the first of the two men would subject her to misery of the acutest kind.

Will Elizabeth reject both gentlemen's offers of marriage, especially when one of them is Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy? Will she dare to refuse such a man?
What listeners have said:
'Pearl Hewitt has a wonderful speaking voice, and it fits this type of novel naturally. She's the perfect narrator for the time period. I've listened to this book twice since I purchased it and enjoyed it more each time!'
'I like alternative stories that stay true to the characters, wit and restraint of the original. I needed to enjoy the goodness in P&P without a lot of angst and this was just right.'
'If you love Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer then you will love love love this novel. The story was unique and the characters were true to the original in that their main characteristics were unchanged but we also got to see a new part of their personality and manners.'
'I always love how Dixon writes Darcy’s perspective. As the title says. (Sigh) Such a MAN. His inner monologues are filled with desire and anticipation. The engagement scenes and Elizabeth’s perspective are worth a laugh out loud. I have listened to several Dixon books now and am impressed with Pearl Hewitt's range of voices keeping all character voices consistent book to book.'
'Pam Dixon once again enchants her readers and listeners into a state of excitement and fear for our favourite couple! But of course leaves us with a happy ending and a longing for more!'

Can two strong-willed people live amicably under the same roof, or will their passions explode into something wonderful?
Follow Mr. Darcy's journey from a man who is proud and haughty to one who seeks to please a woman worthy of being pleased.
What listeners have said:
“I had the privilege to be swept away into PO Dixon's To Have His Cake (and Eat It Too) on a recent cross-country driving trip. It was the only thing that could keep me not only awake but enthralled. It was wonderful! The story is sweeping and enchanting and the narration FLAWLESS!”
“This was such a delightful twist on my favorite story of Pride and Prejudice.”
“A captivating listen that is sure to please!”
“The story is pure enchantment and Pearl Hewitt is a superb reader. Her reading of Darcy's words, while he makes passionate love to Lizzy, will have you melting like butter on a warm summer's day. Brilliantly written and brilliantly read.”

In her classic, In the Shadow of Man, Jane Goodall wrote of her first ten years at Gombe. In Through a Window she continues the story, painting a more complete and vivid portrait of our closest relatives.
On the shores of Lake Tanganyika, Gombe is a community where the principal residents are chimpanzees. Through Goodall's eyes we watch young Figan's relentless rise to power and old Mike's crushing defeat. We learn how one mother rears her children to succeed and another dooms hers to failure. We witness horrifying murders, touching moments of affection, joyous births, and wrenching deaths.
As Goodall compellingly tells the story of this intimately intertwined community, we are shown human emotions stripped to their essence. In the mirror of chimpanzee life, we see ourselves reflected.

But she is also horribly lonely. Then one day she hears about a garden in the grounds of the Manor that has been kept locked and hidden for years. And when a friendly robin helps Mary find the key, she discovers the most magical place anyone could imagine...

Lady Anne Marston has long since given up any thought of marriage. That is the price she pays for the mistakes of her past.

Now, trapped between a secret and a lie, Anne must somehow disentangle herself from this charming, maddening man before the truth comes out-or her heart gives in . . .
