Lisa Smith was a bright young lawyer at a prestigious law firm in New York City when alcoholism and drug addiction took over her life.

Girl Walks Out of a Bar explores Smith's formative years, her decade of alcohol and drug abuse, divorce, and her road to recovery.

Palm Beach, 1961. Socialite, irresistible rascal, and devoted father Jack Morgan stages his suicide to shield his beloved daughters from scandal and disgrace. His daughter, Charlotte (Charlie), is an overindulged 23-year-old girl struggling to cope with the loss of her beloved father, her sister's resulting mental breakdown, and the discovery that she's now penniless. Fortunately Raul, an admiring young attorney, offers assistance to the traumatized young woman.

Dying of cancer and worried about his immortal soul, that rascal Jack confesses his long list of sins to the Reverend Nigel. The stunned but sympathetic clergyman convinces Jack that his most heinous sin was perpetrated on his daughters, who believe that he committed suicide. Both men agree that seeing their father suddenly reappear, only to die a painful death shortly after, would cause additional harm.

In Manhattan, being recently dumped by her soul mate becomes the least of Charlotte (Charlie) Morgan's problems after she is viciously pushed off a subway platform in front of an oncoming train. Her modeling career seems over, and she may not walk again. Throughout her lengthy hospital stay, the police have no success finding her assailant or determining a motive. A handsome detective recovering from similar injuries is assigned to be her physical therapy partner.

Verliebt in einen Vampir. Ist Elena wirklich bei dem Autounfall gestorben? Nein! Sie ist als Untote in ein Schattenreich verdammt. Stefano beschuldigt Damon, sie getötet zu haben, um sie endlich besitzen zu können. Doch tatsächlich spürt Elena auch im Reich der Finsternis die Gefahr einer fremden Macht... Während die Brüder Damon und Stefano aufs Blutigste um Elena kämpfen, erleidet diese einen schweren Autounfall und stirbt – zumindest glauben das alle in Fell’s Church. Doch Elena lebt – als Untote in ein Schattenreich verdammt, nachdem sie bereits das Blut der beiden Vampirbrüder getrunken hat.

Band 5 der packenden Vampirtagebücher! Elena hat es geschafft, der Schattenwelt zu entkommen! Doch sie hat sich dennoch verwandelt. Anfangs kann sie sich kaum an kaum etwas erinnern und ist mehr Engelswesen als Mensch, sie kann sich nur mit Stephano über telepathische Bilder verständigen. Doch dafür besitzt sie eine große, gute Macht – die allerdings schwindet, je menschlicher sie wird. Doch ob sie stark genug ist, um es mit der bösen Macht aufzunehmen, die in Fell’s Church lauert? Denn dieses Mal wird die Stadt von etwas heimgesucht, das böser ist als alles zuvor.

Verliebt in einen Vampir. Stefano bleibt verschwunden und Elena setzt alles daran, ihre große Liebe wiederzufinden. Sie sucht die Konfrontation mit Damon. Obwohl sie Stefano bedingungslos liebt, spürt sie die dunkle Faszination, die von seinem schönen Vampirbruder ausgeht. Elena ist versucht, Damon das zu geben, was er verlangt - ihr Blut!

Verliebt in einen Vampir. Das Böse in Fell´s Church scheint besiegt, doch Elena ist gefangen in der Schattenwelt. Und es besteht Gefahr für ihre irdischen Freunde! Es gibt jedoch einen Ausweg: Stefano und Damon müssen ihre Feindschaft überwinden und Seite an Seite kämpfen. Doch der Hass sitzt tief... Mit dem Tod Catarinas scheint das Böse in Fell's Church endgültig begraben zu sein. Doch auch Elena hat ihre Liebe zu Stefano bitter mit dem Leben bezahlt.

Nella sua giovane vita, Elena Gilbert ha dovuto fronteggiare innumerevoli sfide: è riuscita a sfuggire alla Dimensione Oscura, ha combattuto e sconfitto fantasmi, ha scoperto di essere una Guardiana... Ma nulla di tutto ciò è paragonabile al dilemma che le strazia il cuore: dover scegliere tra i fratelli Salvatore, i due vampiri, gli amori della sua vita. Ora che si è riconciliata con Stefan, Damon, è diventato cupo e imprevedibile. Elena vorrebbe aiutarlo, ma sa di non poter tradire di nuovo la fiducia di Stefan.

Dopo essere sfuggiti agli orrori della Dimensione Oscura e aver sventato la terribile minaccia che incombeva su di loro, Elena e i suoi amici sono ansiosi di lasciarsi il passato alle spalle per iniziare una nuova vita al Dalcrest College, lo stesso campus in cui si sono incontrati e innamorati i genitori di Elena. Tuto inizia sotto i migliori auspici: Elena e Stefan sono più affiatati che mai e con Bonnie, Meredith e Mat al suo fianco, la ragazza è convinta che stia per cominciare l'anno più bello della sua vita. Persino Damon sembra cambiato e pare andare d'accordo con tuti.
