Book excerpt: A respectable marriage reveals private passions and dangerous secrets in this “sensual and intriguing” Victorian romance (Publishers Weekly). Lucy Ashton had long ago given up her quest for true love. Instead, she plays the expected role of a society lady: flirting, dancing, and dabbling in the new fashion of spiritualism. She even marries when—and who—she’s supposed to. If the stuffy Duke of Sussex cannot spark the passion she craves, he can at least give her a family and a home of her own. But when her polite marriage reveals a caring and sensual man, Lucy begins to wonder if she can indeed have it all. As a member of a secretive organization, Lord Sussex is not the man London society has come to admire. Meanwhile, Lucy harbors a few troublesome ghosts of her own. Thus, when a blackmail scheme turns to threats of danger, the newfound peace of the Sussex marriage is cast upon the rocks. Passion has a price, Lucy learns. And not all ghosts stay buried.
Download or read book Pride written by Ibi Zoboi and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a timely update of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, National Book Award finalist Ibi Zoboi skillfully balances cultural identity, class, and gentrification against the heady magic of first love in her vibrant reimagining of this beloved classic. A smart, funny, gorgeous retelling starring all characters of color. Zuri Benitez has pride. Brooklyn pride, family pride, and pride in her Afro-Latino roots. But pride might not be enough to save her rapidly gentrifying neighborhood from becoming unrecognizable. When the wealthy Darcy family moves in across the street, Zuri wants nothing to do with their two teenage sons, even as her older sister, Janae, starts to fall for the charming Ainsley. She especially can’t stand the judgmental and arrogant Darius. Yet as Zuri and Darius are forced to find common ground, their initial dislike shifts into an unexpected understanding. But with four wild sisters pulling her in different directions, cute boy Warren vying for her attention, and college applications hovering on the horizon, Zuri fights to find her place in Bushwick’s changing landscape, or lose it all. "Zoboi skillfully depicts the vicissitudes of teenage relationships, and Zuri’s outsize pride and poetic sensibility make her a sympathetic teenager in a contemporary story about race, gentrification, and young love." (Publishers Weekly, "An Anti-Racist Children's and YA Reading List")

Download or read book Heart of the Pride written by Kaye Draper and published by Kaye Draper. This book was released on 2021-05-18 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Gesa escaped her oppressive clan to become a bounty hunter in a growing backwater city, she never imagined she would end up dating a fae. She might try her best to deny Oisin’s jokes about her starting a pride—a harem reserved for male gryphons—but Gesa is growing dangerously fond of their roommate and secretary, the unassuming human, Con. But romantic issues are the least of Gesa’s worries. Her ancient, deadly fae lover is hiding something. And a spate of animal killings leads the amateur detectives right to a murderer who hides in the open, sure of his supremacy over those he hunts. When Gesa and Oisin are wounded and nearly killed, Con has no choice to take matters into his own hands to protect the pride, putting the breakable—and idiotically reckless—human right in the way of a killer. Author’s Note: I was tired of reading the same old thing over and over again in reverse harem. Sick of all alpha male and fainting female all the time—and desperate to be able to tell the male characters apart—I tried to infuse some variety into my story. Gesa might not be your cup of tea, and that’s okay—she doesn’t care. Her lovers are as varied in physicality and personality as they are in supernatural race. And the characters all have their own definition of sexuality. I know reverse harem is all about the fantasy, and my fantasy is a bit outside the norm. You’ve been warned. Story length definitions: Flash fiction: 200-2,000 words Short story: 1,500-7,500 words Novelette: 7,500-15,000 words Novella: 15,000-40,000 words Novel: 50,000 words and up. *Gesa’s Menagerie books are novellas of between 30,000-40,000 words.*

Download or read book The Book of Pride written by Mason Funk and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE BOOK OF PRIDE captures the true story of the gay rights movement from the 1960s to the present, through richly detailed, stunning interviews with the leaders, activists, and ordinary people who witnessed the movement and made it happen. These individuals fought battles both personal and political, often without the support of family or friends, frequently under the threat of violence and persecution. By shining a light on these remarkable stories of bravery and determination, THE BOOK OF PRIDE not only honors an important chapter in American history, but also empowers young people today (both LGBTQ and straight) to discover their own courage in order to create positive change. Furthermore, it serves a critically important role in ensuring the history of the LGBTQ movement can never be erased, inspiring us to resist all forms of oppression with ferocity, community, and, most importantly, pride
Download or read book Unequal Affections written by Lara S. Ormiston and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Elizabeth Bennet first knew Mr. Darcy, she despised him and was sure he felt the same. Angered by his pride and reserve, influenced by the lies of the charming Mr. Wickham, she never troubled herself to believe he was anything other than the worst of men—until, one day, he unexpectedly proposed. Mr. Darcy’s passionate avowal of love causes Elizabeth to reevaluate everything she thought she knew about him. What she knows is that he is rich, handsome, clever, and very much in love with her. She, on the other hand, is poor, and can expect a future of increasing poverty if she does not marry. The incentives for her to accept him are strong, but she is honest enough to tell him that she does not return his affections. He says he can accept that—but will either of them ever be truly happy in a relationship of unequal affection? Diverging from Jane Austen’s classic novel Pride and Prejudice at the proposal in the Hunsford parsonage, this story explores the kind of man Darcy is, even before his “proper humbling,” and how such a man, so full of pride, so much in love, might have behaved had Elizabeth chosen to accept his original proposal.
