Books with title Someone To Love

When Freddie Mercury died in 1991, aged just 45, the world was rocked by the vibrant and flamboyant star’s tragic secret that he had been battling AIDS. That Mercury had even been diagnosed came as a shock to his millions of fans, with his announcement coming less than 24-hours before his death. In Somebody to Love, biographers Mark Langthorne and Matt Richards skilfully weave both Freddie Mercury’s incredible pursuit of musical greatness with Queen, his upbringing and his endless search for love with the story of a terrible disease that swept across the world in the 1980s, as medical treatment fought to catch up with it despite underfunding, social ignorance and homophobia. With brand new perspectives from Mercury’s closest friends and fellow musicians, this unique and deeply moving tribute casts a very different light on both his death and the origins of AIDS itself. An intimate read, like Freddie and his art, it will stay with you for a long time.

At first, Bobby Wallace was everything Cindy Gibson hoped for. He was friendly, seemingly mature, and hansome--the perfect escape from her problems in school and even bigger troubles at home. But then, bobby starts behaving strangely, and Cindy gets scared. Hiding her concerns from her friends and her distracted mother, Cindy soon finds herself in the worst trouble of her life.

The Whitmore sisters, Natalia, Aria, and Sofia have had their fair share of trauma and drama when it comes to the men they love and their temporary fill-ins. Each sister has experienced love in a fatal way, and each time, just because it seemed over, didn’t mean it quite was. Letting go doesn’t seem to be any of their strong suits, and they can’t advise one another when the three are experiencing the same problems, almost at the same time. Natalia is the youngest, and where the story begins. Natalia and Dominic have a son together, and she’s always loved him. His commitment shy ways eventually push her into the arms of the spontaneous and carefree Jones, who if Dominic isn’t careful, could take Natalia and claim her in the most permanent way possible. The Whitmore Sisters aren’t always the ones who got away, sometimes their men are. If they aren’t honest with themselves, each other, and the men involved… they might each miss out on true, unconditional love.
