Book Synopsis All My Tomorrows by : Colette Saucier
Download or read book All My Tomorrows written by Colette Saucier and published by Colette Saucier. This book was released on 2012-06-15 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2013 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award Semi-finalist 2013 Award "Favorite Modern Adaptation" Austenesque Reviews Austenprose Selection for Debut Author of 2012 P&E Readers' Choice: Top 10 Romance of 2012 All My Tomorrows is losing the ratings war. For headwriter Alice McGillicutty, the past year has had enough drama. Her mother passed away, her last relationship ended in disaster, and now poor ratings are catapulting her long-running soap opera toward cancellation. For comfort and creative inspiration, she begins reading The Edge of Darkness, an old melodramatic paperback she found among her mother's belongings. When scandal rips Hollywood bad boy Peter Walsingham off the tabloids and into her studio, Alice doubts the small screen is big enough for his ego - or his entourage. In their battle of pride and prejudice, will Peter's vanity and arrogance compel Alice to write him out of her script, or can she find a role for him in All My Tomorrows? "Laugh-out-loud funny and filled with endearing characters, the novel's greatest strength is its masterful dialogue and the banter between the players. Skillfully rendered love scenes add heat to the romances, which the author keeps interesting through a roller coaster of plot twists." - Publishers Weekly "A thoroughly entertaining read - Peter and Alice have a fun and feisty relationship. Their confrontations are full of snappy dialogue and a tension that is more longing than overtly sexual. But when the sparks do fly, these two light up the room!" - InD'Tale Magazine "5 out of 5 stars: All My Tomorrows has solidified the thoughts I had after reading Pulse and Prejudice, in that Saucier is a master storyteller. Her ability to keep the reader engaged throughout both works is fantastic." - Kimberly Denny-Ryder for Austenprose "Although it has plenty of light, funny moments, it also draws you in to care for the characters. Once I had started reading, I found it very hard to put this book down." - Jane Austen Prequels and Sequels "In the mood for an absorbing drama with unpredictable twists and intense romances? Originative, unique, and remarkable - All My Tomorrows is a Pride and Prejudice modern adaptation you do not want to miss! You will find much pleasure and enjoyment in this clever and inventive adaptation! I sure did!" - Austenesque Reviews
Book Synopsis Jane Austen and Vampires by : Eric Parisot
Download or read book Jane Austen and Vampires written by Eric Parisot and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jane Austen and Vampires is the first book to investigate the literary convergence of Jane Austen and vampires in Austen fanfic after the success of Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight (2005) and Seth Grahame-Smith’s Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (2009). It asks how the shifting cultural values of Austen and the vampire have aligned, and what their connection might mean for their respective contemporary legacies. It also makes a case for reading “low brow” Austen fanfic attentively, as a way to gain meaningful insight directly from Austen fans into the tensions and anxieties surrounding contemporary notions of love, sex, femininity, and Austen’s modern currency. Offering close readings of Austen’s vampire-slaying heroines, vampiric retellings of Pride and Prejudice, and the transformation of Austen herself into a vampire, this book reveals Austen-vampire mashups as messy, complex entanglements that creatively and self-reflexively interrogate modern fantasies of vampire romance. By its unique intersection of Jane Austen with the vampire, the Gothic, fan culture and popular romance, Jane Austen and Vampires adds a new chapter to the history of Austen’s reception, for fans, students and scholars alike.

Book excerpt: All My Tomorrows is losing the ratings war. For headwriter Alice McGillicutty, the past year has had enough drama. Her mother passed away, her last relationship ended in disaster, and now poor ratings are catapulting her long-running soap opera toward cancellation. For comfort and creative inspiration, she begins reading The Edge of Darkness, an old melodramatic paperback she found among her mother's belongings. When scandal rips Hollywood bad boy Peter Walsingham off the tabloids and into her studio, Alice doubts the small screen is big enough for his ego - or his entourage. In their battle of pride and prejudice, will Peter's vanity and arrogance compel Alice to write him out of her script, or can she find a role for him in All My Tomorrows? This contemporary classic romance not only follows Alice and Peter as they wrestle with misunderstandings, pride, and prejudices, but also the trials and travails of Alexandra, the heroine of the absurdist novel 'The Edge of Darkness.' Full chapters of the book-within-the-book are included as Alice reads and allows that story to influence her own. Though the plot of the primary novel is reminiscent of Pride and Prejudice, Peter and Alice are no Darcy and Elizabeth but fully-formed characters from the twenty-first century.

Book Synopsis Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter by : Seth Grahame-Smith
Download or read book Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter written by Seth Grahame-Smith and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03-02 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indiana. Moonlight falls through the dense woods that surround a one-room cabin, where a nine-year-old Abraham Lincoln kneels at his suffering mother's bedside. She's been stricken with something the old-timers call "Milk Sickness." "My baby boy..." she whispers before dying. Only later will the grieving Abe learn that his mother's fatal affliction was actually the work of a vampire. When the truth becomes known to young Lincoln, he writes in his journal, "henceforth my life shall be one of rigorous study and devotion. I shall become a master of mind and body. And this mastery shall have but one purpose..." Gifted with his legendary height, strength, and skill with an ax, Abe sets out on a path of vengeance that will lead him all the way to the White House. While Abraham Lincoln is widely lauded for saving a and freeing millions of slaves, his valiant fight against the forces of the undead has remained in the shadows for hundreds of years. That is, until Seth Grahame-Smith stumbled upon The Secret Journal of Abraham Lincoln, and became the first living person to lay eyes on it in more than 140 years. Using the journal as his guide and writing in the grand biographical style of Doris Kearns Goodwin and David McCullough, Seth has reconstructed the true life story of our greatest president for the first time-all while revealing the hidden history behind the Civil War and uncovering the role vampires played in the birth, growth, and near-death of our nation.
Book Synopsis Alicia's Possession by : Colette L. Saucier
Download or read book Alicia's Possession written by Colette L. Saucier and published by . This book was released on 2013-08 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It grabbed my attention and kept me riveted to the end. I couldn't wait to read this work, which offers everything: romance, sex, BDSM elements, crime, mystery, compelling characters, and a gripping plot. I read the novel in just a couple of hours, never putting it down." -Masquerade Crew **INCLUDES SPECIAL BONUS MATERIAL** Following the horrific car crash that left her in a coma for two months, Alicia Pageant has returned to her affluent lakeside home to recuperate and come to terms with her husband's infidelity and their impending divorce, which has left her depressed and despondent to the point of agoraphobia. Her attention is frequently captured by the violent arguments of Daniel and Judith Holloman who recently moved into the house on the other side of the lake. One night she is awoken by gunshots and other strange noises coming from across the lake. After witnessing what she believes is someone driving away with a body and never seeing Daniel again, Alicia insists on calling the police, against the advice of her estranged husband who believes she has imagined it. Detective Mason Crawley is sent out to investigate the "suspicious incident," which he considers a nuisance call - even more so after learning of Alicia's recent head injury and watching her take her pain medication with wine. Mason interviews Judith Holloman, who says her husband has gone out of the country on business, but the stories of both women begin to unravel when he sees the two of them meeting. Then while attempting to locate Daniel, someone claiming to be a contractor with the Department of Defense warns him not to investigate Daniel's disappearance further. Mason confronts Alicia and demands an explanation, and she is forced to admit that her head injury has left her with no memory of the accident or the several weeks before. Still she insists not only that Daniel is dead but now he is haunting her because she knows he was murdered. Alicia's palpable sadness and vulnerability awaken Mason's Dominant instinct to protect. Although he cannot control his increasing attraction to her, Mason isn't sure if Alicia is lying, delusional, or in some sort of danger. This leads him to look into her drunk-driving accident, in which she drove her BMW into a lake several miles from her house; but something about the single-car crash doesn't add up either. Even as they succumb to their growing feelings and desires, Alicia doesn't know if she can trust anyone after her husband's disloyalty; and when Mason discovers that the night of Alicia's accident she had gone to confront her husband's mistress - and no one has seen the girl since - he doesn't know if he can trust her either. And now he has yet another mystery to solve, with Alicia at the heart of it. Contains light bondage and elements of Dominance and submission. "A good read for both the love story and the mystery. Saucier has blended together a very interesting mystery with a BDSM relationship in its infancy. As the relationship between Alicia and Mason deepens, and he teaches her about his lifestyle, she is intrigued, but still troubled about losing her mind. In the end, the bad guys are found out, although there is a twist I didn't expect." -Manic Readers "Captivating: The characters had that instant connection and you could feel it. There is also murder and mystery involved and keeps you guessing until the last page. I started reading it last night and was done this afternoon." -Simply Southern Couponers "A great story. It's got everything-sex, crime, cops, more sex, a twisted mystery, knot tying, and a superb denouement." -Chuck Hustmyre, screenwriter and bestselling author of THE AXMAN OF NEW ORLEANS *SPECIAL BONUS: ALICIA EMBRACING THE DARK: A trio of dark vignettes by Alicia Pageant, the heroine of ALICIA'S POSSESSION. "Written in the aftermath of her husband's infidelity and her impending divorce, Alicia's sadness and disillusionment with romantic relationships ripple off the pages."
