'Margaret's convinced that horoscopes come true. She really believes that stars and planets influence your life. The trouble is, no one else she knows seems to feel the same until she meets Aaron. They hit it off - they understand each other. For a while everything goes really well, and it looks like the stars and the tarots have got it right again. But the more Margaret gets involved in the things she believes in - and the more she gets involved with Aaron - the less sure of things she becomes. Finally she has to decide what it is she really believes in...' (Publisher's blurb)

Darcey wants to be more than a friend, but Matt's not about to let anyone get that close. If Darcey could only read Matt's mind she'd understand. And if Matt could only read Darcey's mind, he'd know where to start looking for her when she is in danger. ' (Publication summary)
