Book excerpt: “...not your typical historical romance, grasps your attention from the first page to the very last. It is action packed with twists and turns... difficult to put down.”—Aldine Crick, Goodreads Reviewer Will love deliver them from evil, or will secrets seal their doom? Her father’s mad will sends Elizabeth far away from a sheltered life in the English countryside to her aunt and uncle's vineyard in Venetia, and into a household of neglect and apparent lunacy. The Viscount Canterbourne rescues Elizabeth from ruffians, and his mysterious story captivates her imagination even as his heroics and kindness captivate her heart. But when she encounters the nightmarish Lord Orefados and realizes the mage has imprisoned a friend in the remains of an ancient abbey, Elizabeth hurtles into a maelstrom of peril and dark sorcery. Lord Canterbourne is full of pain and questions at the loss of his estranged father. He hopes the testamentary letter will explain all. Instead it sends him on a fool’s errand to deliver a box (which he must never open) to a man he has only ever seen once: shadowy, eccentric Lord Orefados. With Elizabeth he shares an instant connection. Who else can understand his heart but a woman who has also been at the whim of parental madness, a woman who also bears the stigma of a paternal oddity? When he discovers his dark family history and a secret wrong against Elizabeth’s parents, however, Canterbourne fears he can never tell her the truth. Yet if he doesn’t, he could lose her to the ensorcellments of Orefados, whose obsession with an outlandish ritual is reaching a fever pitch. Can seduction break the spell? Will love deliver them from evil, or will secrets seal their doom? Accursed Abbey is a full length Steamy Regency Gothic Romance novel with supernatural, magical elements and is Book 1 in the Nobles & Necromancy series (includes a glossary of terms). Bedroom doors wide open—but not until the characters have earned it. Get your copy and fall under the spell of Regency Gothic Romance today!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death stalks the abbey halls... Only, Justicar Jhee, a magic-wielding sleuth can stop its sinister forces before they claim her husband. On Jhee's way from her remote home district to the Imperial capital, a wild wave damages her polygamous household's yacht, and they are forced to halt for repairs at a secluded abbey. With communications disrupted, the abbess invites them to stay but soon their visit takes a frightening turn when Jhee sees a masked figure acting suspiciously. Dismissed as ghosts by the others, Jhee’s natural instinct is to investigate. She discovers that the previous abbess and several novices had died under suspicious circumstances and rumors abound of an ancient cult, risen once more and led by a figure called the Mist Abbess. As she digs ever deeper into the mystery she discovers even more shocking revelations, with refugees from the sea going missing and smugglers, human traffickers and anarchists operating at will. There is more to the abbey than meets the eye and soon Jhee’s life is threatened by the malevolence that stalks its confines. Trapped by circumstances and with no way for help to arrive, can she uncover the truth before sinister forces claim her or her husband?

Her fall from grace leaves Katherine Blake dirt poor and friendless save for a stray dog. Some Christmas this will be.

When a snowstorm threatens to halt his carriage ride to the country, he begins to think he made the wrong choice. Then a group of highwaymen drive him off the road, entirely. Merry ruddy Christmas, Foxleigh. Here’s your knock on the head! Being held up a second time is beyond the pale, but when he awakens in the ramshackle cottage of a strangely familiar woman, he realizes his robber is really his savior, and none other than the long lost love of his life, Katherine. It is a miracle, and he intends make the most of his second chance, but then his ex-mistress shows up to ruin his life all over again… Four falling turds, three French hens, two curdled loves, and a duke (in a pear tree).

Book excerpt: "Regency Romance with a modern sensibility Unique and totally relatable heroines, irresistible love interests, and a cast of family, friends and villains that thoroughly captivates. I adore Tessa Candle's books." –Ev Bishop, USA Today bestselling author. He is back from the grave and hiding someone in a cave. Why would the duke's daughter trust such a knave? As if returning from the dead were not taxing enough, Delville, the missing rogue heir to the Duchy of Pallensley, discovers that he is still most inopportunely engaged to a silk-sashed demoness. If he resurfaces to become a duke, she will expect her presumed dead fiancé to make good on the betrothal, and Delville would rather poke out his own eye. But he has another reason for not letting his true identity slip: he is a spy trying to discreetly rescue an abducted child from a dangerous criminal. Things would be a lot less complicated if Lady Eleanor stopped popping up wherever she had the least business being. It is almost as though she is following him—which she probably is. He does have that effect on women. Mistaking her for a lady of the evening and kissing her does not appear to have helped matters. Yet he can hardly be blamed. It was rather dark in that cellar, after all. Eleanor, scathingly sarcastic daughter to the Duke of Grendleridge, has a problem, and his name is Lord Auchdun. The insinuating pest follows her everywhere and cannot seem to comprehend her refusing his offer of marriage, by which he means to remove the taint of her mother’s scandalous past. Eleanor would sooner die an old maid than marry such a moralizing bacon-brain. But evading Auchdun keeps throwing her into the company of a mysterious man who looks like a labourer, but sounds like a gentlemen—though he certainly does not act like one. When she discovers he is hiding a prisoner on her friend’s property, Eleanor has a choice: tell the Marquess of Fenimore of this skullduggery, or assist an insufferably presumptuous and probably dangerous rake in his crimes. And the kiss is of no consideration at all in the matter. Not in the least. Two Brides and a Duke is a full length Steamy Regency Romance novel and Book 4 in the Parvenues & Paramours series. Bedroom doors wide open—but not until the characters have earned it.

Book excerpt: Accursed Abbey is a full length (320 pages) Steamy Regency Gothic Romance novel, and Book 1 in the Nobles & Necromancy series. Nature-loving Elizabeth Whitely is thrust from her sheltered country life in England when the suspicious death of her parents leaves her at the mercy of her father's mad last testament. She is sent far away to live with her aunt and uncle. In her travels, she befriends a beautiful orphan, Lenore, who is destined for the same tiny village. Then the handsome Viscount Canterbourne rescues Elizabeth from ruffians, and his dark story captivates her imagination, even as his heroics and kindness captivate her heart. But when she encounters the necromantic nightmare of Lord Orefados and realizes the mage has imprisoned Lenore in the remains of an ancient abbey, Elizabeth hurtles into a maelstrom of peril and dark sorcery. Can she save herself and her new friend from the magician's madness, or will she be drawn into his strange rites? Will her love be Lord Canterbourne's boon, or will Elizabeth become the chain that binds him to Orefados forever? Lord Canterbourne is full of pain and questions at the loss of his estranged father. He hopes his father's testamentary letter will explain why he abandoned him, but instead it sends him on a fool's errand to deliver a box (which he must never open) to a man he has only ever seen once: shadowy, eccentric Lord Orefados. Along the way he meets Elizabeth, with whom he shares an instant connection. Who else can understand his heart but a woman who has also been at the whim of paternal madness, a woman who also bears the stigma of a father's bizarre behaviour? Canterbourne knows that they are destined for one another, fated to meet in this strange place. But when he discovers his dark family history and a secret wrong against Elizabeth's parents, Canterbourne fears he can never tell her the truth. Yet, if he doesn't, he could lose her to the ensorcellments of Orefados, whose obsession with an outlandish ritual is reaching a fever pitch. Will seducing Elizabeth be the only way to cut her off from Orefados' spell? Will their love deliver them from evil, or will their secrets seal their doom?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gothic Ideology argues that in order to modernize and secularize, the British Protestant imaginary needed an ‘other’ against which it could define itself as a culture and a nation with distinct boundaries. The ‘Gothic ideology’ is identified as an intense religious anxiety, produced by the aftershocks of the Protestant reformation, the Catholic Counter-Reformation, and the dynastic upheavals produced by both events in England, Germany, and France, and was played out in hundreds of Gothic texts published throughout Europe between the mid-eighteenth century and 1880. This book is the first to read the Gothic ideology through the historical context of both King Henry VIII’s dissolution of the monasteries and the extensive French anti-clerical and pornographic works that were well-known to Horace Walpole and Matthew Lewis. The book argues that Gothic was thoroughly invested in a crude form of anti-Catholicism that fed lower class prejudices against the passage of a variety of Catholic Relief Acts that had been pending in Parliament since 1788 and finally passed in 1829.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the history of management, placing it in perspective with both American history and the genealogy of digital technology. Focusing on the years of industrial mobilization in the United States (from 1937 to 1945) and their extension into the Cold War, it shows particularly how "scientific management" was reconfigured and re-legitimized in favor of a new profoundly American geopolitics. In a context where the future was at a standstill, this research also explains what became of the managerial processes at the heart of capitalism from the 40s onwards: the shift from a managerial capitalism of calculation to a narrative capitalism made up of "desiring machines". This digital management no longer simply contributes, along with others, to unveiling and revealing the future. Aligned with the American obsession with novelty, it is the very process of revelation and unveiling, with managers and consumers alike becoming the intersecting subjects of desires borne of managerial apocalypses. To explore this period of American history, the author has combined a triple narrative anchored in three types of archives: an intimate history of this reconfiguration from the presence in New York of Saint-Exupéry, Burnham and Wiener; a description of the great historical moment of industrial mobilization; and a philosophical speculation about reconfiguration and its links to American history.

Book excerpt: Now it is possible for the first time to trace in a systematic way the language patterns of one of the greatest poets who have written in English, W. B. Yeats. Like A Concordance to the Poems of Matthew Arnold, the first of the Cornell Concordances that are under the general editorship of Professor Parrish, this volume was produced on an IBM 704 electronic data-processing machine. Computer technique has so advanced that the Yeats concordance includes punctuation and gives cross references for the second parts of hyphenated words. The frequency of every word in Yeats's poems is given, and an appendix lists all indexed words in order of frequency. The body of this book consists of an index of all significant words in Yeats, each word listed in the line or lines in which it occurs. The concordance is based on the variorum text of Yeats, edited by Alspach and Allt, and includes all variants that occur in printed versions of Yeats's poems.
