Book excerpt: What happens when the price to pay for love is letting go of dreams, or worse - letting go of the safe bubble you have built around yourself? Ricardo wants an uncomplicated life. He loves his work as half-owner of Paradiso Tours, has a bevy of female friends in towns the tours visits, and enjoys the diversity of people he meets. Though a romantic at heart, the past has hold and he has trust issues. Lexi has anxiety issues but with very good reasons. It doesn't stop family and friends from interfering. In fact, they are hell bent on destroying her protective shell with hammers. In self-defence and to shut them up, she agrees to a trip to Italy to join a tour Ricardo thinks Alessandra, aka Lexi (what kind of a name is that in his opinion) is a pain in the behind with her mood swings, annoying personality, and her fetish for track suits. However, she knows Nico and Nico owns a small percentage of Paradiso Tours. Worse, his wife Lia is Alessandra's goddaughter and a friend of his business partner, Annalisa. This complicates things and demands Ricardo act nicely - the woman makes it impossible even if she has strangely fascinating eyes. Surfer Boy, Lexi's appellation for Ricardo, is according to her, a womaniser who needs a haircut, needs to stop dressing like a hippie reject from the seventies, is vain and just plain mean where she is concerned. Her brain is ready to explode though she does concede the man knows his stuff, has good legs and is great with people. Ha! Somewhere between Italy and Greece, arguments will fade, and an unexpected passion will take its place. Who said love belonged to the young?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Can poetry matter to Christian theology?' David Mahan asks in the introduction to this interdisciplinary work. Does the study of poetry represent a serious theological project? What does poetry have to contribute to the public tasks of theology andthe Church? How can theologians, clergy and other ministry professionals, and Christian laypeople benefit from an earnest study of poetry? A growing number of professional theologians today seek to push theological inquiry beyond the relative seclusion of academic specialisation into a broader marketplace of public ideas, and to recast the theological task as an integrative discipline, wholly engaged with the issues and sensibilities of the age. Accordingly, such scholars seek to draw upon and engage the insights and practices of a variety of cultural resources, including those of the arts, in their theological projects. Arguing that poetry can be a form of theological discourse, Mahan shows how poetry offers rich theological resourcesand instruction for the Christian church. In drawing attention to the 'peculiar advantages' it affords, this book addresses one of the greatest challenges facing the church today: the difficulty of effectively communicating the Christian gospel withincreasingly disaffected 'late-modern' people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am just an ordinary woman turned extraordinary through circumstances. I touch others through my own tragedies by giving them hope and encouragement and reminding them that sometimes the richest people are those who have endured tragedy, pain, sadness, and struggle, allowing them to lead a more abundant life. Never would I change my life experiences. My greatest gift is my endless compassion for others, and my sincerest hope is to bring each and every one of you the gift of pure joy, the kind of joy that enlarges your heart and brings tears to your eyes. I have laughed at adversity, tragedy, failure, poor health, and financial devastation. Yet I am so very rich! Yes, it was God who told me to contact you through my book and his words. If you met me personally, you would understand this is not my ego talking. I am only repeating what God told me. I am. You are. We are all destined for greatness!

The first installment, The Unexpected Duchess, is inspired by Edmond Rostand's Cyrano de Bergerac. IN THIS BATTLE OF WITS Lady Lucy Upton's tongue may be too sharp to attract suitors but her heart is good, and when her painfully shy friend Cassandra needs help she devises a brilliant scheme to help her discourage an unwanted suitor, the Duke of Claringdon. Lucy will hide behind the hedgerow and tell Cass just what to say to discourage the Duke of Claringdon...but it turns out that he's made of sterner stuff than either of them anticipated. And Lucy is shocked to discover that tangling with the tenacious man is the most fun she's had in ages. KISSES ARE THE BEST WEAPON Lord Derek Hunt made a promise to his dying friend to marry the demure Cassandra, and for a man who wants nothing more than peace and quiet after the horrors of war, she'll make the perfect bride. If only the impudent Miss Upton will let him court the girl! Doing battle is the last thing on his mind, but bantering with Lucy behind the bushes is too tempting to resist. And in The Unexpected Duchess, the spoils of this war just may be true love...

Book excerpt: Innocent? Or…not? After spending the first twenty-one years of her life tucked away in the country, studious Rowena Riverstone can’t wait to experience London for the first time. She especially looks forward to meeting many of the forward-thinking gentlemen whose opinions she has followed in the papers for years. But it is the mysterious and dashing Noel Paxton who stirs her senses, even as she mistrusts his motives in befriending her, a bespectacled bluestocking spinster. In his quest to expose a dangerous spy and traitor, Noel has taken on the persona of the legendary Saint of Seven Dials. When he meets Miss Riverstone, he is first distracted, then fascinated, for she is clearly more than she appears on the surface—but what? Merely a highly educated—and opinionated—innocent, or the very traitor he seeks? Finding out promises to be both dangerous and delicious. But will his heart be at even greater risk than his life?
