Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Angels of death do not feel. They do not need. They do not lust. They do not love. They carry out their jobs. They take souls. Or at least…that is what they are supposed to do, until Keenan, a powerful angel of death, refuses to take his latest charge on a blood-soaked New Orleans night. He should have touched Nicole St. James, a sweet schoolteacher slated to die, but instead…he took the vampire attacking her. With one touch, Keenan changed fate, and he fell from heaven. When an angel falls, all hell breaks loose. Keenan’s wings burned away in the fall. Without his wings, he’s hit with every single human emotion—and need. And his entire focus is on the woman who cost him everything. He hunts Nicole, tracks her, but is stunned to see that the human he knew before is long gone. Nicole changed on that dark night, too. She’s got some new and dangerous accessories—fangs and claws and definite bite because she’s a vampire. Heaven and hell are after them. Nicole and Keenan are being hunted. Demons and angels are both closing in. If Nicole and Keenan are to survive, they’ll have to trust each other completely. A vampire and a Fallen aren’t supposed to bond, and they sure aren’t supposed to become mates, but some desires just can’t be contained. Keenan has been tied to Nicole from the moment he first saw her. Human, vampire—doesn’t matter to him. Nicole is his, and he will wreck the world to keep her safe. He fell for her. She will belong only to him. ANGEL OF DARKNESS was originally released by Kensington Publishing in December of 2011. The hero knows nothing of human needs, but he’s about to experience a whole new world after falling for his vampire. How far will an angel go in order to protect the woman he wants above all others? Get ready to find out. Hope you enjoy the fall…

Download or read book The Virgin of Solitude written by Taghi Modarressi and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-31 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the streets of Tehran, Nuri Hushiar knows his blond hair and blue eyes attract attention. While he relishes the attention he cannot avoid the uneasy feeling of being out of place. This sense of being exceptional and estranged is the hallmark of his character and the focus of his struggle in Taghi Modarressi’s last stunning novel. Set around the time of the revolution, The Virgin of Solitude follows the parallel lives of a transplanted Austrian woman, who has made Iran her home, and her grandson, Nuri, who desperately misses his mother but hides his longing behind a veneer of teenage bravado. As the turmoil of the revolution envelops the country, grandmother and grandson witness the dissolution of social, class, and political order, while searching for a sense of belonging. Nasrin Rahimieh’s translation captures the tone and mood of the original, rendering both Modarressi’s subtle humor and assured prose with effortless precision.

Download or read book This Angel Wore Glasses written by Pat Cahill and published by . This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Allwin Snarkle comes up with a preposterous get-rich-quick scheme, he quickly snares the attention of his luckless friend Olympia and a gaggle of other bumblers, all eager to increase their incomes in New York City of the early 1990s. Unfortunately none of these would-be entrepreneurs can seem to do anything right, from the greedy Dr. Jerky, a plastic surgeon who lost his license by mixing up his patients with disastrous results, to Fatty Friendly, the obese and creative accountant jealously guarding the fidelity of his Miss Universe runner-up girlfriend, to the chronically unemployed and gluttonous Mr. Bellybee. It's one disaster after another, as this crew makes its way through Manhattan on a mission to moonlight to millions. The Unblemished Darlings is a comic novel about the absurdity of much of the human enterprise. It is filled with zany characters, human and animal, some of them with unpronounceable names, all of them, the humans that is, out for a buck. It is also a hilariously improbable romance, with a heroine who is definitely not thin, not rich, more than a little addled and somewhat over-the-hill. But her unlikely suitor loves her, if only he could bring himself to let her know and if only he didn't have so much competition! From the moment the first bird droppings land on Snarkle's head, to the pigeon that tries to steal his dessert, to his beloved's tiny but ferocious dog that attacks him at every opportunity, the entire animal world seems to be conspiring against poor Snarkle; and the humans are not making his romantic pursuit any easier either.

Download or read book Fallen Angel written by William Fotheringham and published by Random House. This book was released on 2009-11-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voted the most popular Italian sportsman of the twentieth century, Fausto Angelo Coppi was the campionissimo - champion of champions. The greatest cyclist of the immediate post-war years, he was the first man to win cycling's great double, the Tour de France and Tour of Italy in the same year - and he did it twice. He achieved mythical status for his crushing solo victories, world titles and world records. But his significance extends far beyond his sport. Coppi's scandalous divorce and controversial early death convulsed a conservative, staunchly Roman Catholic Italy in the 1950s. At a time when adultery was still illegal, Coppi and his lover were dragged from their bed in the middle of the night, excommunicated and forced to face a clamorous legal battle. The ramifications of this case are still being felt today. In Fallen Angel, acclaimed cycling biographer, William Fotheringham, tells the tragic story of Coppi's life and death - of how a man who became the symbol of a nation's rebirth after the disasters of war died reviled and heartbroken. Told with insight and intelligence, this is a unique portrait of Italy and Italian sport at a time of tumultuous change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful young adult novel about an unlikely friendship that helps a young man heal emotional and physical scars. “There are two sides to Damon. You can see it in his face. Good Face. Bad Face. But which is the true Damon? The one who strikes out and asks questions later? Or the one who acts out of kindness? When Esther enters Damon’s life, he finds his mask beginning to slip. And even he doesn’t know what he’ll find behind it.” An elderly woman, Esther, is gypsy-ish and lives as a squatter. A young man, Damon has a facial scar caused when he was in a car accident. He’s angry and isolated and wears a mask as both a protection and a barrier. Both he and Esther are outsiders. When they meet and build a friendship he learns about physical scars and emotional scars; about how, as the old adage goes, ‘beauty is in the eye of the beholder’ and also how 'beauty is only skin deep but ugliness goes right to the bone'. This gripping novel by an award-winning writer also explores disabilities – how some may be overcome, accepted and, in some cases, put towards a positive end.

Download or read book Ratings Are Murder written by Robert R. Irvine and published by Blackstone Publishing. This book was released on 2013-06-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bob Christopher, investigative reporter for Channel 3 in Los Angeles, is an old hand at ferreting out consumer fraud. He hardly feels that an all-out effort to reinstate Saint Christopher to the church's calendar fits that category. Then the cleaning woman who had taken up the saint's cause is brutally murdered. Bob, guilty because he brushed the old woman off, is compelled to search for her killer. He finds himself dodging cloudbursts, raccoons, spilled blood, and his obsessed boss, who needs Bob's presence on the six o'clock news to improve the ratings. Adding to his problems is his elusive film editor, an entrepreneur usually too busy peddling stolen porno tapes to work on the program. Through this hectic action wander rain-soaked fans in weird costumes vying for places and prizes on the station's game show. They make it easy for suspects—disguised as surgeons, nuns, and chickens—to melt into the crowd. As Bob Christopher approaches dead center of the web of murder, blackmail, chicanery, X-rated films, and station politics that infest Channel 3's rickety building, he gets closer to a killer who is out to make the reporter his next victim.

Download or read book Flash and Filigree written by Terry Southern and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2011-05-03 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A satirical dream-logic journey through the dark heart of 1950s Los Angeles Dr. Frederick Eichner, world-renowned dermatologist, is visited by the entrancingly irritating Felix Treevly who comes to him as a patient and stays as an obsession. Prosaic incidents blossom into bizarre developments with the sharpened reality of dreams as the spectral Mr. Treevly leads the doctor into a series of increasingly weird situations. With the assistance of a drunken private detective, a mad judge, a car crash, a game show called “What’s My Disease,” and a hashish party, Treevly drives Eichner to madness and mayhem. It is through comedy and a strange blend of violence and poetic delicacy that the novel charms. Southern’s first novel, Flash and Filigree was turned down by seventeen timorous American publishers. It was Southern’s mentor, the “genius” English novelist Henry Green, who brought the book to the attention of a leading British publishing house, which released it to high praise. A fast-paced dark comedy, Flash and Filigree established Terry Southern as one of the finest American prose stylists to emerge in Paris after the War. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Terry Southern including rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the author’s estate.

Finding Heart Horse is her journey and her search for her Heart Horse. It takes her from being the girl most likely to succeed to a life on the streets of Yorkville in the late sixties. As an adopted child she had no identity, no history, and no place where she fit. Her years on the streets lead her into many dark places, where she began to add more secrets and traumas to her already large collection in the wall of secrets. Life changed quickly in those days, from peace and love to war and violence. She went along for the ride not knowing where it would lead, just knowing that she had to find Heart Horse.

We all want to be loved, to belong, and to be happy. Everyone at some point has yearned for something so powerful that, like a magnet, it pulls you into the unknown. Even if you werent really sure what it was for, you knew you had to pursue it. Life lessons are learned, spirituality discovered. The reality of opposites is proven. With pain comes pleasure, with despair comes hope, with sadness comes joy, and perhaps along the way even your Heart Horse may be found.
