If either of those aren't your thing, then this book is really NOT for you.", Author's Note: This book contains a possessive alpha-hole and steamy scenes. But what choice does she have? Better the devil you know than the one you don't. Marrying Alexander means knowingly becoming a tool in his revenge plan. She didn't expect Alexander Kennedy to be there, and she certainly didn't expect him to propose a marriage of convenience instead. "item_description" : "Desperate and out of options, Elena Rousseau walks into a gentlemen's club, ready to sell her body in a last attempt to save her mother's life. Once she got that first novel published, the love for writing that had dominated her childhood came back and she never looked back since. She wrote the first novel just so that she could prove to herself that she could, and was happily surprised when it got accepted for publishing. Nevertheless, she never thought of ever becoming an author until she sold her first novel “I Heart New York” to Harper Collins. Lindsey Kelk has always loved reading ever since she was a little girl, and would get lost in a book, and started writing her own stories as a kid. She currently lives in Los Angeles California with her cats. She also loves to read novels, especially the Donna Tartt books. When she is not writing she loves to watch the WWE, drink Elderflower cocktails and gin, and shop, judge, and wear shoes. Given that she still loves to write nonfiction, she still writes movie tie-ins, ghostwrites for brands, and does some journalism. She spends much of her time researching and writing her novels. Her novels have been so popular that they have been published in more than twenty languages across the globe, and gone on to sol more than a million copies. So far, she has more than thirteen novels in the “I Heart series”, two e-novellas, “A Girl” series, and several freestanding novels. Lindsey Kelk is a British award winning and bestselling author that was born in Doncaster, lived in Nottingham and London, before moving to the New York and Los Angeles in the States. She gets her wish when her father makes Lynet queen of the southern territories, displacing Mina. But despite being the dead queen made flesh, Lynet would rather be like her fierce and regal stepmother, Mina. The only catch is that she’ll have to become a stepmother.įifteen-year-old Lynet looks just like her late mother, and one day she discovers why: a magician created her out of snow in the dead queen’s image, at her father’s order. When she moves to Whitespring Castle and sees its king for the first time, Mina forms a plan: win the king’s heart with her beauty, become queen, and finally know love. She never guessed that her father cut out her heart and replaced it with one of glass. Sixteen-year-old Mina is motherless, her magician father is vicious, and her silent heart has never beat with love for anyone-has never beat at all, in fact, but she’d always thought that fact normal. “An empowering and progressive original retelling.” - SLJ, starred review “Dark, fantastical, hauntingly evocative.” - Kirkus Reviews, starred review “Utterly superb.” -ALA Booklist, starred review Melissa Bashardoust’s acclaimed debut novel Girls Made of Snow and Glass is “Snow White as it’s never been told before.a feminist fantasy fairy tale not to be missed” ( BookPage)!

The Cogheart Adventures by Peter Bunzl are fantastic middle-grade adventures for ages 9+. Shortlisted: 2018 Cogheart Some secrets change the world in a heartbeat Lily’s life is in mortal peril. And all he left behind is a small box-with no key, no hinges. But if he made such a miraculous discovery, he certainly never told Lily. But what could they possibly want from her? There are rumors, Lily learns, that her father had invented the most valuable invention ever made-a perpetual motion machine. Mysterious, silver-eyed men are lurking in the shadows, just waiting for their chance to strike. Now cared for by her guardian, the heartless Madame Verdigris, Lily is quite certain that she’s being watched. But after her father-a famous inventor-disappears on a routine zeppelin flight, Lily’s life gets turned upside down. A strong-willed girl, Lily felt trapped in a life of Victorian stuffiness at her prim boarding school. Thirteen-year-old Lily Hartman always dreamed of adventure. The event was split into three segments-the first being a reading and talk about her new book, the second being a discussion between novelist and Medical Humanities and Ethics lecturer Nellie Herman and Biss, and the third being a chance for audience members to ask Biss questions of their own. On Wednesday, Columbia Narrative Medicine hosted a discussion with writer Eula Biss on her new book, Having and Being Had. In this October Virtual Narrative Medicine Rounds event, we had the opportunity to hear from Eula Biss herself, this time exploring the pervasive nature of capitalism and its effects on our lives and health. In University Writing: Readings in Medical Humanities last fall, some sections had the chance to read, discuss, and respond to “Sentimental Medicine,” a thought-provoking essay by Eula Biss. * A long-awaited literary event, Robert Fitzgerald's translation of "The Aeneid" took its place beside his "Iliad" & "Odyssey", both acknowledged masterpieces in their own right.

Review 2: i admit it.i skipped to the J/A moments. The Adrian English series, as well as anything Josh Lanyon writes is a great, enjoyable read with likable characters and a plot that won't stand still. However, if such things have to be included Lanyon is at least skilled in weaving this humdrum aspect of his character's lives into the story. Like most mystery fiction nowadays, there's the romantic interest which I suppose is a demand of the publishers since I have never seen where this added anything to the story or the characters. I love his characters, of whom Adrian English is only one. Review 1: Josh Lanyon is a reliable, interesting, and very skilled mystery writer. There are also remarks which let you that know in spite of her calm sense of superiority, the cat behind this book obviously loves her humans as well. The feline advice is on things like: getting people to serve what you want to eat, claiming your own chair, making it a given that you will sleep on the bed, dealing with travel and visits to the veterinarian, coaxing the man of the house to give you tidbits from the dinner table, how to treat unwelcome houseguests, making sure doors will be opened for you, training humans to recognize your different miaows (including the voiceless one which must be used very strategically), what poses and attitudes are most becoming to win people's admiration, making the holiday fuss all about you, and finally- if you happen to have dalliance with a tomcat and become a mother- how to properly pass on these lessons to your offspring so that they, too, may acquire and influence a human household. It doesn't at all feel outdated, except maybe for a few remarks on the nature of men and women. It's more smug and self-assured in tone than The Devious Book for Cats, and very charmingly illustrated with professional photographs of a cat in her home by Suzanne Szasz. It's all about clever, subtle manipulation, making the humans think they're getting their own way, while really they end up doing everything to the cat's desire. When done skillfully, the humans won't even realize this is happening. A book from the cat's perspective which details how a one may successfully take over and run a human household to their own liking. When their animosity explodes into one unforgettable night, he proposes a solution that'll get her out of his system once and for all: an enemies with benefits arrangement with simple rules.Ĭharming, deadly and smart enough to hide it, Christian Harper is a monster dressed in the perfectly tailored suits of a gentleman. The beautiful redhead has been a thorn in his side since they met, but she also consumes his thoughts in a way no woman ever has. Gorgeous, cocky, and fast on his way to becoming a hotshot doctor, Josh Chen has never met a woman he couldn't charm - except for Jules f**king Ambrose. A princess with a stubborn streak that matches his own and a hidden fire that reduces his rules to ash. He has never once been tempted to break those rules. Stoic, broody and arrogant, elite bodyguard Rhys Larsen has two rules: protect his clients at all costs and do not become emotionally involved. Alex Volkov is a devil blessed with the face of an angel and cursed with a past he can't escape.ĭriven by a tragedy that has haunted him for most of his life, his ruthless pursuits for success and vengeance leave little room for matters of the heart.īut when he's forced to look after his best friend's sister, he starts to feel something in his chest. |
