Download or read book The Appleton Sisters Series 3 Book Bundle written by Katie Rose and published by Loveswept. This book was released on 2014-10-20 with total page 832 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Appleton sisters of Victorian-era New York City prove that good things come in threes. In the classic historical romance novels A Hint of Mischief and Courting Trouble, along with the Christmas novella Mistletoe and Magic, beloved author Katie Rose brings these uniquely clever, otherworldly women to life. Now the whole trilogy is available in one delightful eBook bundle. A HINT OF MISCHIEF For the bewitching Jennifer Appleton, there is nothing the least bit wicked about holding a séance. She and her charming sisters happen to offer the matrons of Victorian Manhattan a great deal of comfort. So it’s something of a shock when Gabriel Forester shows up at their door, lobbing accusations of fraud—and his remarkably compelling gaze—at lovely, wide-eyed Jennifer. As passion flares unexpectedly, Gabriel and Jennifer must learn to forget the ghostly voices of the past . . . and listen to their beating hearts. COURTING TROUBLE No one could accuse the Appleton sisters of embracing tradition. Though Winifred Appleton hopes to champion the rights of women by becoming an attorney, no law school will take on female students. Her only choice is to accept an apprenticeship from Charles Howe—and try to ignore the fiery passion the handsome prosecutor arouses. Intrigued by Winifred’s spirit, Charles plans to propose once she inevitably buckles under the pressure. But when the pair are pitted on opposite sides of a contentious murder trial, they learn that love is the only argument that matters. MISTLETOE AND MAGIC (NOVELLA) Blond, angelic Penelope Appleton possesses breathtaking looks—and a troublesome secret. Unlike her sisters, Penelope actually does glimpse the future. On the eve of her coming out, Penelope sees a vision of a rakishly handsome dark-haired man who she knows is her destiny. She also foretells his death. At the next night’s Christmas ball, the ethereal beauty tries to deny the magic between her and Jared Marton . . . until a perfect kiss dissolves all barriers to sweet surrender. But soon a perfect love is challenged by the cold winds of fate.

Book excerpt: An Alabama boy’s innocence is shaken by murder and madness in the 1960s South in this novel by the New York Times–bestselling author of Swan Song. It’s 1964 in idyllic Zephyr, Alabama. People either work for the paper mill up the Tecumseh River, or for the local dairy. It’s a simple life, but it stirs the impressionable imagination of twelve-year-old aspiring writer Cory Mackenson. He’s certain he’s sensed spirits whispering in the churchyard. He’s heard of the weird bootleggers who lurk in the dark outside of town. He’s seen a flood leave Main Street crawling with snakes. Cory thrills to all of it as only a young boy can. Then one morning, while accompanying his father on his milk route, he sees a car careen off the road and slowly sink into fathomless Saxon’s Lake. His father dives into the icy water to rescue the driver, and finds a beaten corpse, naked and handcuffed to the steering wheel—a copper wire tightened around the stranger’s neck. In time, the townsfolk seem to forget all about the unsolved murder. But Cory and his father can’t. Their search for the truth is a journey into a world where innocence and evil collide. What lies before them is the stuff of fear and awe, magic and madness, fantasy and reality. As Cory wades into the deep end of Zephyr and all its mysteries, he’ll discover that while the pleasures of childish things fade away, growing up can be a strange and beautiful ride. “Strongly echoing the childhood-elegies of King and Bradbury, and every bit their equal,” Boy’s Life, a winner of both the Bram Stoker and World Fantasy Awards, represents a brilliant blend of mystery and rich atmosphere, the finest work of one of today’s most accomplished writers (Kirkus Reviews).
Download or read book Piper Green and the Fairy Tree written by Ellen Potter and published by Knopf Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From award-winning author Ellen Potter comes a charming new chapter book series where kids, lobster boats, and a hint of magic are part of everyday life. There are three things you should know about Piper Green: 1. She always says what’s on her mind (even when she probably shouldn’t). 2. She rides a lobster boat to school. 3. There is a Fairy Tree in her front yard. Life on an island in Maine is always interesting. But when a new teacher starts at Piper’s school—and doesn’t appreciate the special, um, accessory that Piper has decided to wear—there may be trouble on the horizon. Then Piper discovers the Fairy Tree in her front yard. Is the Fairy Tree really magic? And can it fix Piper’s problems? ★“Skillfully blending humor, pathos, and warmth with an atmospheric setting, Potter has created an honest, empathic slice-of-life story, laced with a touch of magic. Piper has a winning combination of stubbornness, loyalty, and independence, which Leng ably portrays in her loosely inked, gently humorous artwork.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review “With its intriguing setting, sympathetic characters, and hint of magic, this new chapter-book series should charm fledgling readers.” —Kirkus Reviews “Piper is brave and tough on the surface, and her sense of loss lies at the heart of the conflict. Written with humor as well as pathos, the first-person text shows her confused emotions and her resiliency as well. An appealing debut for the series.” —Booklist “Potter puts her own stamp on the spunky-quirky-stubborn girl story. . . . A satisfying, accessible, funny early chapter book.” —The Horn Book
