Book excerpt: A woman running from her traumatic past. A man who’s still grieving for the wife he lost eight years ago... When Kiah Stanton drives through the gateway of Windsong racing stables, she’s carrying more baggage than a freight train. Vulnerable, yet resolved to uncover her inner warrior princess, she’s determined to make a new life for herself – and never trust another man. In fact, the only male Kiah wants in her life is Jet, the equally traumatized horse she saved from the meat-man at the horse sales. After losing his wife eight years ago, single father and racehorse trainer, Jack Sullivan, is definitely not looking for a relationship. He’s too busy training racehorses and caring for his eight-year-old daughter, plus, no woman, no matter how attractive, could ever replace the wife he adored. So, what is it about the vulnerable, but gutsy woman he rescues at a horse sale and then later discovers on his doorstep? A woman whose courage and beauty stirs the long-dead ashes of his burnt-out heart? Can two broken people get a second chance at love while battling their past and dealing with the everyday ups and downs of a professional racing stable in a small rural town called Shadow Creek?

Book excerpt: When Molly Gibson, sensual romance writer but shyest and most insecure member of the Gumshoe Chicks, finds more than she bargained for in the Driscoll's dog trailer, the Chicks - Molly, Abi and Dana - swap show ring etiquette and grooming mitts for some deadly serious sleuthing. Their only clues are the blood splattered dog-grooming scissors found buried in a fellow competitor's chest, a husband blackmailing his wife, and a death threat written on a Betty Boop writing pad. As the Chicks investigate, they discover several suspects at the dog show have something to hide. Was the dead man really a serial Don Juan, intent on taking every female show competitor over 30 to bed? Did the ostentatious poodle exhibitor lose his temper, decide to teach the victim a lesson, and go too far? Or, was the female judge with the Gucci boots angry when the victim threatened to expose her infidelity? And who is that bad-boy biker with the sea-blue eyes and kissable lips? Molly, who has enough trouble resolving conflict in her fictional stories is freaked out at the prospect of confronting a real-life antihero. A villain who's killed not once, but twice, and if she doesn't apply her creative flair to unearthing the culprit, could easily kill again. Just when the Chicks think they know who the murderer is, Molly stumbles over another clue proving them all wrong. With only a geriatric chihuahua and a hairless broom to work with, will she live to pass this message on to the others?

Book excerpt: When greyhound trainer, Kat McKinley discovers a dead body in the dumpster at the back of the greyhound track and her bridesmaid, Jules, is arrested for the woman’s murder, Kat’s wedding plans are left in turmoil. To get her bridesmaid out of jail in time for the ceremony, Kat has to find the real murderer. But how? It isn’t a matter of who murdered Mary Parker, but who didn’t. The woman was the most disliked trainer in greyhound racing and even Kat is a suspect. After all, when Mary, a serial man-stealer, tried to take Ben away from her, Kat threatened to carve the word slut across the woman’s fake boobs. All this, while rugging up her dog in the kennel house, with stewards, the track-vet and seven other trainers as witnesses. But with so much to do before the wedding, will Kat have time to investigate? Her bikie friend, Scuzz and his sister Thunder have already settled into the granny-flat-cum-greyhound-adoption quarters. Kat’s domineering grandma arrives with a new beau on her arm, both eager to tag along in the investigation. Her hippy sister, Liz, has a surprise announcement to make. And, if the depressed dressmaker doesn’t finish her wedding dress and bridesmaid gowns in time, there’ll be no wedding. With a crazed murderer intent on turning Kat into a statistic instead of a happy-ever-after newlywed, it’s a frantic sprint to the finish line. Will Ben be left standing at the alter clasping the leashes of Kat’s four dogs, Tater, Lucky, Lofty and Yolo? Or, will Kat and her friends manage to outsmart the real murderer in time for her to walk down the aisle?

Download or read book Doggone It written by June Whyte and published by White City Press. This book was released on with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three dog loving sleuths. A dead body. An innocent man jailed for murder. When Dana Fox, feisty mother of two, discovers the dead body of a bullying poodle breeder at the dog show, the Chicks are pushed deep into the middle of another mystery. The wrong man is in jail and it's up to Dana, leader of the pack, Abigail Truelove, owner of Pampered Pooch, and Molly Gibson, a shy romance writer, to collar the real killer. Solving this mystery isn't as easy as depicted in the Agatha Christie books shelved in the Chicks' local library. Far from it. Especially when the victim is the most hated man in the show world and the suspect list reads like an open phone directory. Dealing with a wacky fortune teller, a hot gym instructor, homeless guys armed with shopping trolleys, Queen Bee of the Yummy Mummies and an English Lord called Dumpling would keep even the inimitable Poirot himself awake at nights. And just when they think they’ve cracked the case – another dead body says otherwise...

Book excerpt: Abigail Truelove believes her champion standard smooth dachshund, Chloe, has a lock on the Ladies Kennel Club Best in Show trophy. That is, until she discovers her nemesis, Petra Sullivan, has been sleeping with the show judge…and with Abi's boyfriend. Understandably, Abi's upset. In fact, she might even have threatened bloodthirsty consequences. In front of a show ring full of witnesses. So, later, when Abi trips over Petra's dead body in a dark alley, she knows she must find Petra's killer. If not, she could end up showing her wiener dog in prison. To catch a killer, Abi enlists her two best friends to help: Molly, a virgin romance-writer and Dana, a ball-busting mother of two. Together, they revive their high school sleuthing group, The Gumshoe Chicks. When the list of suspects becomes longer than a week's grocery list, the Chicks quickly discover that sleuthing isn't as easy as the Nancy Drew books portray. The local dog show world is full of angry wives, irate competitors and a Mick Dundee type guy with a yard full of man-eating crocodiles–all cheated, tricked or dumped by Petra. Which one would stupidly waste their big-ticket luxury dog leash for a murder weapon? The same one who is now determined to collar Abi?

Download or read book Poetical Works of Henry Lawson written by Henry Lawson and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The death of Henry Lawson marked the close of the period in Australian literature which began with Henry Kendall. While living, Lawson had many imitators, but no peers; with his death we turned a page to which there can be no additions. He belonged to a past of struggle, pain, and triumph, when the country was in the making. Others will use those days to give their work background of colour and romance; but there can be none to walk where he walked, none to see with his eyes... With every decade that appeal must increase; for, reading Lawson, our children's children will hear the living voice of those who laid the foundations of all they prize and love." The 'Poetical Works of Henry Lawson is a collection of poems by the famed nineteenth century Australian writer and poet, known for his prolific descriptions of Australian society in the colonial period.

Download or read book Dingo Bold written by Rowena Lennox and published by Sydney University Press. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dingo Bold is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between people and dingoes. At its heart is Rowena Lennox's encounter with a dingo on the beach on K’gari (Fraser Island), a young male she nicknames Bold. Struck by this experience, and by the intense, often polarised opinions expressed in public conversations about dingo conservation and control, she sets out to understand the complex relationship between humans and dingoes. Weaving together ecological data, interviews with people connected personally and professionally with K’gari’s dingoes, and Lennox's expansive reading of literary, historical and scientific accounts, Dingo Bold considers what we know about the history of relations between dingoes and humans, and what preconceptions shape our attitudes today. Do we see dingoes as native wildlife or feral dogs? Wild or domesticated animals? A tourist attraction or a threat? And how do our answers to these questions shape our interactions with them? Dingo Bold is both a moving memoir of love and loss through Lennox's observations of the natural world and an important contribution to wider conversations about conservation and animal welfare. "Combining natural history, Indigenous culture, folklore, memoir, and environmental politics, this is an elegantly written and affectionate tribute to Australia's most maligned and least understood native animal." Jacqueline Kent "Fuelled by empathy, curiosity and passion, and informed by research, data and observation, this moving and compelling book speaks to the heart and to the head. Rowena Lennox poses questions about our relationship with dingoes — and our role in the natural world — that are as bold and lively as her subject." Debra Adelaide
