Book excerpt: Since early childhood, Sara Kent has been experimented on—and dominated by—an alien scientist desperate to save his dying race of male clones. She has passed every test, first out of fear, later because her children—the product of asexual genetic splicing—are being held hostage on the alien’s spacecraft. As long as she cooperates, they’re safe, which means she’ll do anything, including engaging in a brief sexual liaison with a random stranger so that the alien can study them. Unfortunately, Clay Ryerson—the hot guy she picks up in a bar for that purpose—falls madly in love with her and refuses to break up despite her every effort. The more she pushes him away, the more determined he becomes to rescue her from whatever is keeping them apart. Sara knows from brutal experience that she and the children aren’t the only ones in danger. This alien will kill anyone who gets too close to his precious specimen, including a handsome would-be hero with a death wish.
Download or read book Perfect Specimen Brietta written by Kate Donovan and published by Beyond The Page. This book was released on 2016-05-17 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novella will quench your thirst for more in Kate Donovan’s Perfect Specimen series, featuring alien geneticist Ga’rag, an alien searching for the perfect specimen. To archaeologist Brietta Ryerson, traveling to a remote location to excavate an ancient cemetery is the job of a lifetime and nothing is going to stop her from getting there, especially not a sinus infection, no matter how debilitating the pain. Except what she’s suffering from isn’t a sinus infection, but rather a pain-inducing chip implanted in her face by alien geneticist Ga’rag. His twin goals: test this specimen’s suitability for cloning, while also exacting revenge against Brietta’s cousin – the human who tried to thwart his first DNA-hunt. Meanwhile, cocky adventurer Sean Taggert regrets hiring Brietta for this gig despite her perfect credentials. For one thing, she’s annoyingly attractive. Plus, she’s too perceptive, and might realize that the cemetery is just a decoy – something to distract from Taggert’s real find. There’s no question that Sean Taggert is as sexy as he is talented, but Brietta has no intention of damaging her reputation for a small fling. Besides that, she’s too busy trying to keep her headaches under control to bother with passion. But for how long will the headaches simply remain headaches? Ga’rag is getting closer to finding his perfect specimen and this time no one is going to get in his way, not Brietta and certainly not cocky Sean Taggert.

Download or read book Michael Curtiz written by Alan K. Rode and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2017-11-17 with total page 705 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academy Award–winning director Michael Curtiz (1886–1962)—whose best-known films include Casablanca (1942), Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942), Mildred Pierce (1945) and White Christmas (1954)—was in many ways the anti-auteur. During his unprecedented twenty-seven year tenure at Warner Bros., he directed swashbuckling adventures, westerns, musicals, war epics, romances, historical dramas, horror films, tearjerkers, melodramas, comedies, and film noir masterpieces. The director's staggering output of 180 films surpasses that of the legendary John Ford and exceeds the combined total of films directed by George Cukor, Victor Fleming, and Howard Hawks. In the first biography of this colorful, instinctual artist, Alan K. Rode illuminates the life and work of one of the film industry's most complex figures. He explores the director's little-known early life and career in his native Hungary, revealing how Curtiz shaped the earliest days of silent cinema in Europe before immigrating to the United States in 1926. In Hollywood, Curtiz earned a reputation for explosive tantrums, his difficulty with English, and disregard for the well-being of others. However, few directors elicited more memorable portrayals from their casts, and ten different actors delivered Oscar-nominated performances under his direction. In addition to his study of the director's remarkable legacy, Rode investigates Curtiz's dramatic personal life, discussing his enduring creative partnership with his wife, screenwriter Bess Meredyth, as well as his numerous affairs and children born of his extramarital relationships. This meticulously researched biography provides a nuanced understanding of one of the most talented filmmakers of Hollywood's golden age.
