Happy Ever After
2008
If it's just you and me, together, for the rest of our lives - no-one else to mess things up... could you ever love me? Peter loves Vanessa. He loves her a lot and is looking forward to starting a nice life with her, and only her. No one else to get in the way and mess up their beautiful relationship. He'll do anything for her. Absolutely anything to make her happy. Anything to see that beautiful smile of hers. Anything to live happily ever after with her. The only problem is - Vanessa doesn't know Peter and, more importantly, understand why she is cuffed to the dining room table. Told through the eyes of the two people living the story, follow Peter as he keeps Vanessa prisoner hoping that she will fall in love with him and follow Vanessa as she desperately looks for a way out of this hell. \

A Fresh Start
2012
Finally - the gripping conclusion to the 'Happy Ever After' trilogy. Vanessa's alone now; living in her own personal Hell. He's gone now. Peter is gone. Not coming back, despite her ailing self-conscious trying to convince her otherwise. It's just her now. Alone. Her only objective is to break from the house in which she's become trapped. She just needs to break out. Get to the outside. Once outside she can worry about putting everything behind her - try to at least. 'Don't worry about that now. Just get out. Get out. Then worry about A Fresh Start.' Told through Vanessa's POV - this is the Final part in the 'Happy Ever After' Trilogy.

Peter
2012
Vanessa's gone now. The quietness of my house broken by the ghosts in the garage. Cash saved to live my life with Vanessa didn't last as long as I had hoped. Need a job. Extra cash and the chance to get out of the house. Be nice to meet new people. Be nice to fit myself back into society. Be safe... now I've realised the errors of my way... Yes... get back out into society. Become a team-player... make amends for what I've done... And who knows.... might even meet someone new. 'Peter' is the sequel to Matt Shaw's best-selling "Happy Ever After Trilogy" - told through the main character's eyes as he desperately tries to make amends for the lives he's taken... tries to sit back into a normal society... tries to prove he isn't The Monster he fears he is...

All Good Things
2012
First there was the 'Happy Ever After' Trilogy, then there was 'Peter' now Matt Shaw brings you the final part of Peter's story in 'All Good Things'. "I thought my life was easier now. Since coming to terms with the fact I'm a monster - my days were supposed to be less confusing. Monsters, such as myself, aren't allowed Love. We certainly aren't allowed our own Happy Ever After... so there was no point looking anymore. Just carry on with my newfound mission.... punishing the bad women of the world and rescuing the abused. But then she came along.... this new woman... She confused everything with the way she acts around me. Does she love me like I imagine her to or is she just another one of the many teases.... or maybe I'm just reading the signals wrong. No. I'm sure that's not the case. She seems to be genuine... and genuinely interested. They say you find Love when you stop looking. Is that what's happened? I stopped looking and Love found me?! Maybe All Good Things do come to those that wait...." Told through Peter's eyes - 'All Good Things' is the gripping, and twisted, conclusion to Peter's story. Will he really find the Happy Ever After he's so desperate for or will it be yet another dead-end (and dead girl)?
