Since the day the love of her life betrayed her, she has started a virtual assistant business, learned some self-confidence, and dated half the single men in Medford, Oregon. But not one of them can hold a candle to her rough-yet-tender ex-fiancé. Wolf shifter Noah has more than his fair share of regrets. Every single day, he should have told Kenzie that he loved her. He should have realized his get-rich-quick schemes didn't impress her, and worse, that they could rip her away from him. He never got his chance to say goodbye, so when she shows up at the Junkyard, he needs to do whatever it takes to earn her trust. This is their second chance. He'll fight like hell—again—to keep her safe. Even if that means pushing her away and losing her forever. Filthy Thief is the seventh standalone novel in the Junkyard Shifters series.

Book excerpt: Nothing is overdone and not a word is out of place in this auspicious debut," wrote Kirkus in a starred review of Instead of Three Wishes, the first book by Megan Whalen Turner. Her second book more than fulfills that promise. The king's scholar, the magus, believes he knows the site of an ancient treasure. To attain it for his king, he needs a skillful thief, and he selects Gen from the king's prison. The magus is interested only in the theif's abilities. What Gen is interested in is anyone's guess. Their journey toward the treasure is both dangerous and difficult, lightened only imperceptibly by the tales they tell of the old gods and goddesses. Megan Whalen Turner weaves Gen's stories and Gen's story together with style and verve in a novel that is filled with intrigue, adventure, and surprise.

Download or read book Tussaud written by Belinda Lyons-Lee and published by Transit Lounge . This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paris, 1810. Haunted by the French Revolution, Marie Tussaud has locked herself away in her shop with the death masks she was forced to make to avoid the guillotine. Philidor, a famous magician, offers her the chance to accompany him to London to assist in creating a wax automaton that will bring them both money and success. Following a disastrous performance on their opening night in which the wax on their prized spectacle melts, the eccentric Duke, William Cavendish, invites them to his rambling estate, Welbeck, where he suggests they take up residence, use his underground ballroom for a new show and in return create a private commission for him: a wax automaton in the likeness of Elanor, a beautiful girl who mysteriously disappeared from the estate when he was a child. In this delicious novel of twists and turns, Welbeck, with its locked doors and rooms, is full of secrets and no-one is who they seem. There is the seductive aura of Shelley, Dickens and Du Maurier in Tussaud. Marie must fight for survival in a world dominated by male advantage and power in a mesmerising story filled with wisdom about human behaviour and motivations. 'Thrilling, eerie, fun, and psychologically compelling, Tussaud cleverly blurs the line between history and the fantastical to create a Gothic delight of mysterious mansions, grimy London streets, stage magicians, wax-work automatons, secrets and subterfuges. Mary Shelley would be proud.' – H.G. Parry, author of The Unlikely Escape of Uriah Heep 'Lies, treasons and twists will lure and enthral the reader. At the heart of Tussaud a mysterious automaton challenges the limits of its physical body, craving for a conscience. The reader is in for wondrous ride as Belinda Lyons-Lee poignantly captures Marie Tussaud's proud self-denial, her struggle to achieve independence in a world dominated by con-artists, and her rare talent to create the most perfect illusion of life.' – Mariano Tomatis, Italian writer and magician

Download or read book One Thousand and One Nights written by Hanan al-Shaykh and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-03-10 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the world's great folk story-cycles adapted for the stage by leading theatre maker Tim Supple, from the stories written by the seminal Lebanese novelist Hanan al-Shaykh. This unique edition will unlock the ancient tales for a new generation of readers and performers. Written by Arabic writers from tales gathered in India, Persia and across the great Arab Empire, the One Thousand and One Nights are the never-ending stories told by Shahrazad night after night, under sentence of death, to the king Shahrayar who has vowed to marry a virgin every night and kill her in the morning. Shahrazad prolongs her life by keeping the King engrossed in a web of stories that never ends - a fascinating kaleidoscope of life, love and destiny. The tales that unfold are erotic, violent, supernatural and endlessly surprising. The web of tales woven by Shahrazad were exoticised and bowdlerised in the West under the title of the Arabian Nights. This adaptation unearths the true character of One Thousand and One Nights as it is in the oldest Arabic manuscripts. In turns erotic, brutal, witty, poetic and complex, the tales tell of love and marriage, power and punishment, rich and poor, and the endless trials and uncertainties of fate. The great cities and thriving trade routes of the Islamic world provide the setting for these stories that employ supernatural mystery and intense realism to portray the deep and endless drama of human experience.

Book excerpt: A must-read revelation of hidden facts of a still lively nation. Bargain for Love tackles the oppressions of the forbidden when Serena reconsiders her own freedom of choices illicit with the women behind the veil and their intricate situations. Whisked up in an emotional, challenging romance with an Italian count she mistakes for a gypsy, she struggles with her own conflicts from a shattered marriage, as she acquires a new insight on centuries and centuries of deep-rooted traditions, faces an enticing proposal of a handsome sheik, acknowledges her right for happiness, and regains confidence in her own feminine sensuality. Through love and deception, fashion and wealth, Bargain for Love sweeps us from Rome to Marbella, passing by the Arabian Gulf, the French Riviera and Monte-Carlo in a unique and colorful harmony of fantasy and reality, life-challenging dilemmas and inspiration, abstinence and surrender, sensuality and humor. Inspired by her several journeys around the world, her experience in the fashion business, her encounters with unusual cultures and exotic personalities, the Author wrote Bargain for Love in a subtle call for integrity in relationships, freedom of choices, emancipation from abuse and oppression, and acceptance of love and sensuality. "There are women around the world who confront many impasses to liberate themselves from the oppression of their culture, empower their own conflicts and acknowledge their birthright from happiness, love and sensuality." Elly-Royce Laurens says, "This is a faction book I wrote for them!" You can visit Elly-Royce's website at www.ellyroyce.com.
