The Charybdis Novels Omnibus is a 5-in-1 volume containing K.A. Thompson's Charybdis series. Charybdis: His life littered with the women he's used—including a dead hooker he'd planned on marrying—Chip Davis is ready to move on. A blue-eyed teenage wonder has found her way into his life, and he intends to run with her at full speed towards happiness. He knows she's the one, and nothing is going to keep him from holding onto her—not a dead friend, a missing brother, a kidnapped son, or a father whose sudden choice to explore the darker side of his employment will turn him away. Nothing except for his own demons, and, perhaps, the truth. As Simple As That: They were supposed to ride off into the sunset and live out the cliché of happily ever after. They were supposed to have two-point-five kids, buy a minivan, carve out a slice of suburbia, and stay healthy and young and beautiful forever. They weren't supposed to make mistakes, have tempers or fights or bad days. They weren't supposed to split up. But with 18 years of marriage, 4 kids, a cat, and The Issue between them, Chip and Terry Davis aren't quite sure what to do when the distance between them seems too far to cross--or what to do when a simple case of the flu and a stubborn teenager crosses it for them. Finding Father Rabbit: After three years in the seminary, Kevin Davis comes home for his brother's birthday and refuses to tell anyone why he won't go back. No one can pry the reason from him, not his parents, his brothers, or even his twin sister. But when childhood love Lydia Freeman bounces back into his life and yanks him out of his pool of despair, he considers telling her the truth, even though once she knows, there's no going back. He struggles with the truth, a pen pal who wants to be so much more, and an unfortunate streak with fire burning holes in his life. Finding Father Rabbit follows the Davis family through two years, from Kevin's return home to the explosion of his secret revealed. The King and Queen of Perfect Normal: Hair is falling out in places Chip Davis never expected. There's a microscopic layer of fat covering his six-pack. His wife is peaking while he's on the downslide, his kids want to create their own family compound, and his oldest son heads off to "We Don't Know Where"—fifty is looming on the horizon and Chip resists it with as much force as a man who has to get up five times a night can…until he realizes what he fears most isn't middle age, but the medical merry-go-round he suddenly finds himself riding and the uncertainty of how and when the ride will stop. The Flipside of Here: In the blink of an eye, Kris Stevens Gallery Stone finds herself sitting on a park bench with her long dead ex-husband. Neither is sure why she's there; Ron knows she's not dead and knows she's at a crossroads—decide to live or decide to die—but what he doesn't know is why she wanted him there with her. While she struggles with what her ultimate decision will be, Ron shows her his vision of Heaven, tempting her to stay. But before she gives him an answer, he wants to explore their long-dead marriage, from the weeks before she meets 15 year old Chip to its end in Dan Martin's office in the agency, and in the telling of their tale hopes she'll remember why she loved him, and why she loves him still.
