Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heir: A Love Story Miss chase lay on her immense red silk four-poster that reached as high as the ceiling. Her face was covered over by a sheet, but as she had a high, aristocratic nose, it raised the sheet into a ridge, ending in a point. Her hands could also be distinguished beneath the sheet, folded across her chest like the hands of an effigy and her feet, tight together like the feet of an effigy, raised the sheet into two further points at the bottom of the bed. She was eighty-four years old, and she had been dead for twenty-four hours. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: This prince? He's anything but charming. I've never been the girl who's dreamt of a prince rescuing me from a fire-breathing dragon before whisking me away to his castle. So when I fly all the way to Ireland to find my long-lost dad, I have no intention of playing the damsel in distress to some dude. But the night I encounter--and accidentally wallop upside the head--Prince Olivier of Salasia, my plans are completely upended. This prince is the opposite of charming, though. After thirty seconds in his presence, I want to feed him to a dragon. But fate is a fickle b*tch. Before I know it, I agree to team up with Olivier in the search for my dad. As I travel across Europe with this actual honest-to-god prince, I wonder, what's the worst that could happen? It's not like I'll be stupid enough to fall in love with Prince Charming.
Download or read book The Heir Presumptive Vol 2 of 2 written by Florence Marryat and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heir Presumptive, Vol. 2 of 2: A Love Story And she is resolved that Gladys shall not be ashamed of her old home. So the balconies and windows teem with scented blossoms and glossy leaves, and the house has been fitted with new aesthetic blinds, and the lace curtains are from the most expensive foreign looms. The guest cham bers have been refurnished also and made fit for the reception of so great a personage, and the ser vants have been ordered to assume their new liveries. It is amusing sometimes to watch the sudden dignity gained in the family circle by an accession of rank or riches. Gladys, who but two short years ago was in the schoolroom, and scolded by her mother if she wore her best dresses upon ordinary occasions, who slept in one of the smallest apart ments of the house, and was highly delighted when her father sent her a couple of sovereigns for a birthday present, nothing is too good now for Gladys, for whom at that period anything was good enough.

Download or read book Ralph the Heir Classic Reprint written by Anthony Trollope and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ralph the Heir Here are men who cannot communicate themselves to others, as there are also men who not only can do so, but cannot do other wise. And it is hard to say which is the better man of the two. We do not specially respect him who wears his heart upon his sleeve for daws to peck at, who carries a crystal window to his bosom so that all can see the work that is going on within it, who cannot keep any affair of his own private, who gushes out in love and friendship to every chance acquaintance; but then, again, there is but little: love given to him who is always wary, always silent as to his own belongings, who buttons himself in a suit of close reserve which he never loosens. Respect such a one may gain, but hardly love. It is natural to us to like to know the affairs of our friends; and natural also, I think, to like to talk of our own to those whom we trust. Perhaps, after all that may be said of the weakness of the gushing and indiscreet babbler, it is pleasanter to live with such a one than with the self-constrained reticent man of iron, whose conversation among his most intimate friends is solely of politics, of science, of literature, or of some other subject equally outside the privacies of our inner life.

Download or read book Not the Heir written by Hudson Warm and published by Silverkeep. This book was released on 2020-12 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A jealous prince. A legendary key. An enchanted forest. In the kingdom of Silverkeep, seventeen-year-old Basil Avington is accustomed to his opulent life as a prince. That is, until the king's unforeseen death. Now the future is approaching sooner than Basil thought. His twin-eldest by seven minutes-has stolen his first love, his dignity, and soon, will take the throne. There's only one way for Basil to attain power: embarking on a perilous venture to find King Philip's key, which, according to ancient lore, bestows the kingdom upon its possessor. But it's been lost for centuries. Armed with only a bejeweled sword and imaginative wit, Basil is not prepared for what's to come. The magical forest of Golden Grove will pull him into a world of horse-legged satyrs, a stunning nymph, and the evil Ambrosia-a forest tyrant with baffling powers. His selfish hunt for the key will endanger his life, but failure would lead to an unbearable existence second to his undeserving brother. Unfortunately, the Silverkeep throne seats one.

Download or read book Voltaire in Love written by Nancy Mitford and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inimitable Nancy Mitford’s account of Voltaire’s fifteen-year relationship with the Marquise du Châtelet—the renowned mathematician who introduced Isaac Newton’s revolutionary new physics to France—is a spirited romp in the company of two extraordinary individuals as well as an erudite and gossipy guide to French high society during the Enlightenment. Mitford’s story is as delicious as it is complicated. The marquise was in love with another mathematician, Maupertuis, while she had an unexpected rival for Voltaire’s affections in the future Frederick the Great of Prussia (and later in the philosophe’s own niece). There was, at least, no jealous husband to contend with: the Marquis du Châtelet, Mitford assures us, behaved perfectly. The beau monde of Paris was, however, distraught at the idea of the lovers’ brilliant conversation going to waste on the windswept hills of Champagne, site of the Château de Cirey, where experimental laboratories, a darkroom, and a library of more than twenty-one thousand volumes enabled them to pursue their amours philosophiques. From time to time the threat of impending arrest would send Voltaire scurrying across the border into Holland, but his irrepressible charm—and the interventions of powerful friends—always made it possible for him resume his studies with the cherished marquise.

Book excerpt: Standing atop a promontory, she sees them coming... interlopers in the desert, clumsy outsiders whose caravan blazes a trail of dust. Alisutton d'ere Lihter, who her brothers once called "Button", was abandoned in this wasteland, years ago. Is it those who betrayed her, returning? And if so... why? The answer will bring a girl the world thought dead back across the desert, home to a place she barely remembers. She is The Lost Heir, last of her line... but the secret she carries with her won't put her on the throne. Instead, it prompts a race across the land, a daring rescue, and brings to light yet more mysteries. Who is hunting her along the way? Can she trust what's left of her family or the strangers who have taken her into their fold... or only herself? With her bow and her spear, her heart and her wits, and an indomitable will to survive, Button will find the answers. But she will also learn, like the wind in the desert, what we learn can change us. For good or ill, she will never be the same.
