She's just natural. She can't be real. Something has to be wrong. He laughed. Camille asked, "What's funny?" He said, "Well, I was just thinking you can't be real." Camille giggled and said, "Well, truthfully, I was thinking a similar thought. So we are on the same page." The food arrived at the table. They looked at each other like, let's go eat. They admired how tasty the food looked. They said grace and dug in. Dinner was scrumptious. The waiter brought the check out and asked if it was together or separate. Camille started to say "separate" as Donnell quickly said "together" and slid the waiter his card. She just gave him a look, and he said, "I asked you to dinner. Did you really think you'd have to pay?" She was like, "Hey, you never know." He said, "Well, I got it. If you up for it, we can take a walk down the piers, maybe grab dessert if you have room." She said, "Sure." They headed out and down the strip, enjoying the view of the water and the slight breeze of the night air. Donnell grabbed Camille's hand, and she just looked at him.

Download or read book The English in Love written by Claire Langhamer and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-08-22 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love has a history. It has meant different things to different people at different moments and has served different purposes. This book tells the story of love at a crucial point, a moment when the emotional landscape changed dramatically for large numbers of people. It is a story based in England, but informed by America, and covers the period from the end of the First World War until the break-up of The Beatles. To the casual observer, this era was a golden age of marriage. More people married than ever before. They did so at increasingly younger ages. And there was a revolution in our idea of what marriage meant. Pragmatic notions of marriage as institution were superseded by the more romantic ideal of a relationship based upon individual emotional commitment, love, sex, and personal fulfilment. And yet, this new idea of marriage, based on a belief in the transformative power of love and emotion, carried within it the seeds of its own destruction. Romantic love, particularly when tied to sexual satisfaction, ultimately proved an unreliable foundation upon which to build marriages: fatally, it had the potential to evaporate over time and under pressure. Scratching beneath the surface of the apparent 'golden age' of marriage, Claire Langhamer uncovers the real story of love in the twentieth century, via the recollections of ordinary people who lived through the period. It is a tale of quiet emotional instability, persistent subversion, and unsettling change. At its end, the idea of life-long marriage was in serious decline. And, as Langhamer shows, this was a decline directly rooted in the contradictions and tensions that lay at the heart of the emotional revolution itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the well-loved author of Knitting Under the Influence and The Smart One and the Pretty One comes a new novel about a young single mother trying to move out of her family's shadow. Rickie left home a long time ago-so how is it that at the age of twenty-five, she's living with her parents again, and sleeping in the bedroom of her childhood home? At least one thing has changed since high school: She now has a very sweet but frequently challenging son named Noah, who attends the same tony private LA school she herself attended. Rickie fit in fine when she was a student, but now her age and tattoos make her stand out from all the blond Stepford moms, who are desperate to know why someone so young-and so unmarried-has a kid in first grade. Already on the defensive, Rickie goes into full mother-tigress mode when her small and unathletic son tells her that the gym teacher is out to get him. She storms the principal's office, only to discover that Andrew Fulton, the coach, is no dumb jock. As her friendship with Andrew develops, Rickie finds herself questioning her assumptions-about motherhood, being a grown-up, and falling in love.
