Book excerpt: I hate Jack Spear with the passion of a thousand white hot suns. I have never been more embarrassed than the day my former bodyguard rejected me four years ago. I was so certain that he felt the same things for me that I felt for him. I’d wanted him to be my first, my only, my…everything. Instead, he pushed me away and left our ranch, never to be seen or heard from again. Now, he’s back, to protect me one last time as a favor to my father. But I’m not the same shy young girl I used to be, and I can absolutely take of myself. I’m prepared to tell Jack that I don’t need a bodyguard and send him on his way. I’m not prepared for him to surprise me at my door with a kiss hot enough to melt all my hurt and anger. It seems like my romantic dreams are finally coming true, until the man whose obsession with my family has haunted my entire life turns up in my backyard, transforming our dream into a nightmare.
Download or read book Clara s War written by Clara Kramer and published by Emblem Editions. This book was released on 2010-04-06 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “You lose your loved ones, and still you want to live.” On 21 July 1942, the Nazis reached the small Polish town of Zolkiew. Life for fifteen-year-old Clara Kramer would never be the same. While those around her were either slaughtered or transported, three families found perilous refuge in a hand-dug cellar. Hers was one of them. Living above and protecting them were the Becks. Mrs. Beck had been the families’ maid. Mr. Beck was alcoholic and a self-professed anti-Semite, yet he risked his life to keep his charges safe. But survival under his protection proved to be anything but predictable. Whether it was his nightly drinking sessions with officers of the SS in the room just above or his torrid affair with one of the hiding women, it seemed that Clara and the others often had as much to fear from Beck as they did from the war. Clara’s mother told her to keep a diary while they lived in the bunker in order to fill her time and “so the world would know what happened to us.” Over sixty years later, Clara Kramer has finally turned those diaries into a compelling and heartbreaking memoir — a story of love and memory and survival.
Download or read book Catching a Witch written by Heidi Eljarbo and published by TCK Publishing. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An enjoyable read, strong on its portrayal of witch-hunting . . . [and] the tensions between medicine and healing, religion and superstition.” —Historical Novel Society The year 1660 is when it all changed . . . That’s when a witch-hunter comes to Clara Dahl’s seaside village in Norway. She’s horrified to discover how fast her neighbors and friends are to turn against each other. She soon realizes her sleepy, little, picturesque corner of the world has been invaded by evil—and it has nothing to do with witchcraft. As neighbor turns against neighbor, Clara finds herself drawn into the fray, forced to do what she can to protect her friends and loved ones. An educated and upstanding minister’s daughter, Clara speaks out against the witch-hunter’s unjust treatment of those accused of witchcraft. She sees how he plays the villagers, using their superstitions and religious beliefs to make good people accept horrible things. When Clara’s best friend Bess is accused of being a witch, Clara must make an incredible sacrifice to save not only her friend, but the entire town—before it’s too late. “For me, this story is much more about the strength and bond of female friendship, with the persecution of witches as a catalyst forcing them to band together.” —Quiet Fury Books “This story really brings you back in time and pulls out so many emotions . . . Interesting and tragic.” —What’s Beyond Forks? Follow more of Clara Dahl’s adventures in Trailing the Hunter!

Download or read book After O Connor written by Hugh Ruppersburg and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Georgia has produced some of the major figures of modern literature, including Carson McCullers, Erskine Caldwell and, most notably, Flannery O'Connor. While such writers are firmly established in American literary history, all too few readers are aware of how the state's tradition of literary excellence persists in the present day. The thirty stories in After O'Connor were written during the past fifteen years by authors who were born in Georgia or spent a significant part of their lives and careers in this state. Embracing the social, cultural, and ethnic variety in today's Georgia, After O'Connor both advances and helps redefine the great southern storytelling tradition.
