Book excerpt: The wrong brother… Ireland needs a fresh start, and her cousin convinces her to take a chance on a charismatic bad-boy with a wicked boat and a killer body. But when Ireland shows up for the popular Lake Tahoe booze cruise he runs, she finds his handsome older brother at the helm instead. Bran likes things structured and predictable. Especially after the mistakes he made ten years ago. But his father’s recent passing threw his calm life into chaos, and now Bran is in charge of the family’s five-star restaurants. He’s been grasping to get things back to status-quo ever since. He has no idea how much more complicated life will get. Flame-haired Ireland is exactly the type of beautiful woman Bran has programed himself to avoid. But when she falls into his lap on a booze cruise his brother asked him to cover, the boat isn’t the only thing tossed by the water. Bran’s heart goes overboard as well. Headstrong Ireland is nothing Bran wants, and everything he needs. "Wonderful characters and beautiful family." ~ Julia, Reviewer EXCERPT Bran stretched his neck and let out a sigh. “I’m sorry… About the boat incident.” “You mean the kiss?” “I meant the hands. The kiss had been coming.” The corner of his mouth quirked. “I liked the hands,” she said, her blood boiling with annoyance. “It was the words out of your mouth I could have done without.” Bran’s eyes darkened. “Good to know. Next time, less talking and more touching.” Ireland’s jaw dropped.“Who says there will be a next time?” “You didn’t say there wouldn’t.” Keywords: wrong brother, opposites attract, mistaken identity, Cade Brothers, Cade, Tempting Levi, Daring Wes, contemporary romance, romantic comedy, rom-com, humorous, beaches, billionaire, wealthy, alpha hero, alpha male, Lake Tahoe, never date series, steamy romance, forbidden romance, family drama, nerd heroine, romcom, rom com, rom-com book, romcom book

Download or read book The Unique Legacy of Weird Tales written by Justin Everett and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the pulp magazine Weird Tales appeared on newsstands in 1923, it proved to be a pivotal moment in the evolution of speculative fiction. Living up to its nickname, “The Unique Magazine,” Weird Tales provided the first real venue for authors writing in the nascent genres of fantasy, horror, and science fiction. Weird fiction pioneers such as H. P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, Clark Ashton Smith, Robert Bloch, Catherine L. Moore, and many others honed their craft in the pages of Weird Tales in the 1920s and 1930s, and their work had a tremendous influence on later generations of genre authors. In The Unique Legacy of Weird Tales: The Evolution of Modern Fantasy and Horror, Justin Everett and Jeffrey Shanks have assembled an impressive collection of essays that explore many of the themes critical to understanding the importance of the magazine. This multi-disciplinary collection from a wide array of scholars looks at how Weird Tales served as a locus of genre formation and literary discourse community. There are also chapters devoted to individual authors—including Lovecraft, Howard, and Bloch—and their particular contributions to the magazine. As the literary world was undergoing a revolution and mass-produced media began to dwarf high-brow literature in social significance, Weird Tales managed to straddle both worlds. This collection of essays explores the important role the magazine played in expanding the literary landscape at a very particular time and place in American culture. The Unique Legacy of Weird Tales will appeal to scholars and aficionados of fantasy, horror, and weird fiction and those interested in the early roots of these popular genres.

Book excerpt: Having a one-night stand with my sister’s billionaire friend was a mistake… But moving in with the reclusive billionaire would be an even bigger problem. Besides the unfortunate time we slept together, the only thing Jack Townsend and I have in common is our aversion to serious relationships.
