The Secrets of Xanos takes place on a fictional Greek island where old family secrets cast a long shadow. In A Shameful Consequence, one night of passion leads to consequences neither character expected. An Indecent Proposition raises the stakes with a bold proposal that forces both characters to confront what they really want.
The Greek island setting is atmospheric, and Marinelli uses the small-town feel of Xanos to make the secrets feel personal and inescapable. The two books are tightly connected and best read in order.
