Book excerpt: Hooking up with an employee is not on my to-do list. Making sure other men have a good time is my business, even if it means suppressing my own desires. It's opening weekend at my clothing-optional campground, guests are starting to arrive, and I've got a pool party and a few hundred peoples' vacations to save while battling Mother Nature's tantrums. The last thing I need is a temporary employee who can't even put up a tent. Luke Cody's not my type. He's too young, too pretty, and too much like my late partner. Another flaky musician? No thanks. But when a storm blows down his campsite, I can't just leave him outside and soaked to the bone. Now he's staying in my cabin, sleeping in my bed, and worst of all, he's completely ignoring the proverbial sign over my head that says Grumpy Bear: Do Not Approach. I'm not quite as immune to his charms as I want him to believe, but he'll only be here for a few days. Nothing's going to happen... Grumpy Bear is a boss/employee, grumpy/sunshine romance set at a gay campground full of bears. (Not shifters; the other kind of bears.) It's the first full-length book in the Bear Camp series and can be read as a standalone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Bill Gates' "Five Best Summer Reads" The basis for the critically-acclaimed film, Heal the Living, directed by Katell Quillévéré and starring Tahar Rahim and Emmanuelle Seigner Albertine Prize Finalist Winner of the Wellcome Book Prize and the French-American Foundation Translation Prize Just before dawn on a Sunday morning, three teenage boys go surfing. While driving home exhausted, the boys are involved in a fatal car accident on a deserted road. Two of the boys are wearing seat belts; one goes through the windshield. The doctors declare him brain-dead shortly after arriving at the hospital, but his heart is still beating. The Heart takes place over the twenty-four hours surrounding the resulting heart transplant, as life is taken from a young man and given to a woman close to death. In gorgeous, ruminative prose, it examines the deepest feelings of everyone involved as they navigate decisions of life and death. As stylistically audacious as it is emotionally explosive, The Heart mesmerized readers in France, where it has been hailed as the breakthrough work of a new literary star. With the precision of a surgeon and the language of a poet, de Kerangal has made a major contribution to both medicine and literature with an epic tale of grief, hope, and survival.

Download or read book The Crown of Isis written by M. J. Mauborgne and published by BookCountry. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 246 BCE. In order to seal a political alliance, Princess Berenike, sister of Pharaoh Ptolemy III, is betrothed to King Antiochos of Syria. However, Antiochos must first repudiate his lawful spouse and Queen Laodike, as we can expect, will not accept that decision gracefully. The minute details of this chronicle are historically documented. Even the caprice of the weather of the year 246 BCE is true: it did snow in Syria and the rose bushes bloomed in Thebes that winter. The younger audience will enjoy a good story emphasizing girl empowerment. "We are so lucky to be born as women," Kleopatra tells the girls. The educated readers will appreciate the abundance of historical details and factual references. The true story of Berenike II of Alexandria is a tragic one. The prequel The Feather of Ma'at, relates the tumultuous early years of the sheltered princess. Her promising young life takes a wrong turn on the steps of the temple of Isis; a split-second decision that will lead to her untimely death in Antioch, at age 30. The prequel shines a light on many unanswered questions and reveals the mysterious origins of Kleopatra's powers.
Download or read book The Bear written by Claire Cameron and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2014-02-11 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful suspense novel narrated by a young girl who must fend for herself and her little brother after a brutal bear attack. While camping with her family on a remote island, five-year-old Anna awakes in the night to the sound of her mother screaming. A rogue black bear, three hundred pounds of fury, is attacking the family's campsite -- and pouncing on her parents as prey. At her dying mother's faint urging, Anna manages to get her brother into the family's canoe and paddle away. But when the canoe runs aground on the edge of the woods, the sister and brother must battle hunger, the elements, and a wilderness alive with danger. Lost and completely alone, they find that their only hope resides in Anna's heartbreaking love for her family, and her struggle to be brave when nothing in her world seems safe anymore. This is a story with a small narrator and a big heart. Cameron gracefully plumbs Anna's young perspective on family, responsibility, and hope, charting both a tragically premature loss of innocence and a startling evolution as Anna reasons through the impossible situations that confront her. Lean and confident, and told in the innocent and honest voice of a five-year-old, The Bear is a transporting tale of loss -- but also a poignant and surprisingly funny adventure about love and the raw instincts that enable us to survive.
