From one of Australia's hottest new authors comes a story about an international scandal, a billionaire, and a fearless reporter who might just save the day... Confined in a cold, dull room in the depths of a Shanghai airport, a journalist chasing a career break and a businessman with a shadowy past play a game of truth or dare — deliberately not exchanging names. They tell each other their most painful secrets and burning desires.

But it will also rip them apart. And it will take more than daring before they can build a new truth together.

You're in for one hell of a journey with Will.Darcy is a genuine heroine. Not perfect, but not TSTL. She has reasons for everything she does, and she owns the co...
ALL THE ANGST. Whoa. I was so totally not ready for all the drama (physical, emotional, romantic) in Detained. It was worth it, though.
