Book excerpt: I don't need a present for Christmas because you fulfilled all my wishes. ... Perpetually single Blair Hawthorne is perfectly content with her life in the small town of Mislin Bush. She owns an antique shop and she's surrounded by family. Too bad that family is pressuring her to find a husband, or at the very least, a significant other before she faces yet another holiday season unattached. Making matters worse, Mislin Bush is crazy about holiday romance, especially in light of the local custom of hanging up mistletoe in every corner of the town. In Mislin Bush, couples kissing under the mistletoe isn't just tradition, it's town pride. When a handsome stranger arrives unexpectedly, Blair is determined to resist not only his charm, but the mistletoe. Despite her growing attraction to him, she's in no mood for romance, not even during the most wonderful time of the year. Colson Bennett might have roots in Mislin Bush, but he's a hotshot executive from the city. Small time life is a change of pace for him. An even bigger change of pace? Beautiful, feisty girl-next-door Blair who is nothing like the upper-class ice queens he's used to dating back in the city. As the heir to a family fortune, Colson is expected to marry a fellow blue blood – the exact opposite of down to earth Blair. But when he arrives in town to settle a deceased relative's affairs, Colson decides that only a small-town girl like Blair can help him handle his family's valuable antiques. As things heat up between them, Colson gets into the holiday spirit for the first time in his life. For once, he's putting work aside to get close to someone special. In a town where perfect strangers fall in love under the mistletoe, can Colson break tradition and follow his heart in time for Christmas?

With the girls’ college graduation — and what comes after — looming on the horizon, these four must try to find solid ground in an ever-changing world where nothing is certain, even as the countdown to winter break’s end ticks closer.

Download or read book Beyond My Dreams written by Peter Marmureanu and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2014 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Peter Marmureanu started learning tennis in communist-held Romania, he was ten years old, playing barefoot on clay courts, swinging a wooden paddle that served as a racket. Eight years later, as a member of Romania's Davis Cup team, Marmureanu was traveling side by side with Ilie Nastase and Ion Tiriac to the world's capitals playing tournaments in Cairo, Monte Carlo, Paris, London, Moscow, and scores of other cities. In Beyond My Dreams, Marmureanu recounts his life story and how he was forced to become a designated courier for the Securitate, traveling with packets of top-secret documents concealed in his racket cover for delivery to Romanian embassies. In a last-minute flight to freedom that sounds like an espionage thriller, Marmureanu narrates how he made his escape. But even in America, where Donald Rumsfeld and President Gerald Ford helped secure his citizenship, he lived for many years under FBI protection, carrying a handgun for his own safety, knowing the danger that loomed over Romania's defectors and what might happen if he ever went back. And yet, for the sake of his family, Marmureanu risked a return-witnessing, firsthand, the initial moments of insurrection preceding the fall of an evil regime. In this memoir-filled with intrigue, courage, and defiance-Marmureanu tells how he escaped one of the most repressive regimes on earth-the incredible but true adventure of one man's flight to freedom.

Download or read book Courtesans and Cuckolds written by James T. Henke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title, first published in 1979, is a glossary of the bawdy vocabulary that was used in Renaissance Drama. One of the primary functions of this gloss of literary bawdy is to interpret imaginative uses of the language rather than simply record the generally accepted uses and meanings, with its principal task to make the dialogue of the plays more intelligible to the reader. With examples of bawdy language used in the works of Shakespeare, Ben Jonson and John Webster amongst many others, this title will be of great interest to students of literature and performance studies.

Download or read book I ll Take My Chances written by Gary Turner and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2018-05 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evil had to be defeated and he had a responsibility to help. Now it was too late to do anything but spend the lives of millions of young men to defeat this new Dark Age. The mountains were witness to Sidney's determination to stand tall against the darkness. "Those mountains have always been there. They can be my memorial if I don't come back." This family story spans five generations through the Indian Wars of the Dakotas and Montana, both world wars and Vietnam. It speaks to the heartbreak war often brings when young men roll the dice to answer the call of duty. The story weaves tales of separation, unrequited love, intense romance and devotion to promises and honour. At it's heart, this is an anti war story that illustrates how family can be devastated by conflict while also speaking to the healing of spirit that passes from one generation to the next.
