The buzz of Cockney whispering which goes on, intermittently, all day long in our murky typists'-room was beginning to get on my nerves again almost as badly as it did in the first week that I worked at the Near Oriental Shipping Agency. I didn't raise my eyes. Then, above the click and the buzz, came a shriller. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Not illustrated. 1922 edition. Excerpt: ... This gave me quite a little jump; it brought back old days at home; when Sydney, staying in the house, had wanted to bring me out for a stroll before breakfast. "Must be Theo," I said aloud to myself. But something told me it wasn't. I looked out. Yes. There on the gravel beneath, in a blue serge suit that seemed to make his sleek head shine quite golden in the morning sunshine, stood my employer, looking up. Waiting for me to come out? Throwing stones up to catch my attention? Who taught him that? "Good morning," he said quietly. "Will you come down when you are ready?" I nodded as ungraciously as I could, and dren back at once. I was quite ready, but I stopped dead-still by the wardrobe glass for a long moment, letting him wait. Then I turned to the door. Then I came back again. I took the shadiest hat I've got out of its drawer and pulled it down firmly over my hair, stabbing it on with my swastika hatpin, my hand-wrought silver one that Sydney designed for me, my two mounted regimental buttons of father's, and my little pearl-headed one. I daresay my head did look all bristling with spikes, like the Statue of Liberty's. But if I had more pins I'd have stuck them all in! And even if I do, like Blanche and Theo, usually go about hatless in the gardens, I was going to use all the " cover " I could to meet the Governor's apology, whatever it might be. For now he was going to have his work cut out for him. And whatever he began to say about last night's brusque, snatched kiss, I wasn't going to help him out by one syllable. I could wait. Let him explain; floundering about for words, probably, as he hasn't floundered yet! Feeling most satisfactorily composed myself, I came down the stairs. One of the maids, in china-blue print, moved aside...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: His Official Fiancée (1914) is a romance novel by Berta Ruck. After a decade of publishing stories in literary magazines, Ruck released her first novel to popular acclaim. Adapted for a 1919 silent comedy film starring Vivian Martin and Forrest Stanley, His Official Fiancée is a satirical tale of love, work, and modern life. To his employees, William Waters is a demanding boss who micromanages every aspect of their daily work. Beyond his back, he is known as “Still Waters,” a reference to his robotic nature and seemingly stagnant love life. When Monica Trant, a typist, is called into his office, she fears the worst. To her surprise, however, Waters makes a strange proposition. “‘I wish to find someone who, to outward appearances, could take the place of my fiancée; could go about with me, stay at my home, and be introduced all round as the girl I meant to marry. She must understand from the very beginning that it was absolutely a matter of business; that the so-called “engagement” would terminate at the end of the year.’” Hesitant at first, Monica is in no position to turn down a better job and agrees to his request. As days turn to weeks, weeks into months, she realizes that her role has given her an opportunity to gain control of a man who has controlled so much of her own life. Dedicated to the running of his business, Waters has left himself completely vulnerable in his life at home. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Berta Ruck’s His Official Fiancée is a classic of British romance literature reimagined for modern readers.

To which her conversation partner, Miss Robinson, wryly points out: "Accounts for the way a lot of 'em seem to pick their sweethearts on the principle - 'Any port in a storm!'"

He brought with him the proverbial hundred slaves. Shortly afterward other Virginians came with their retinues and wealth. They were in the nature of courtiers to Colonel Arms, and they were prevailed upon to follow him by the fact that the Colonel had discovered in the land iron ore which was even more valuable than Virginia cotton.

Book excerpt: “A tense, simmering, fast-paced mystery.”—Megan Miranda, New York Times bestselling author of The Last House Guest and The Girl from Widow Hills The New York Times bestselling author returns with an unsettling but riveting psychological thriller about a captivating woman who joins a family and threatens to upend their picture-perfect lives. They had everything they needed for a perfect family vacation: close-knit relatives, a bucolic setting . . . and a murderer in their midst? Summer’s looking forward to a break from hustling for acting work in Manhattan when she, her husband Gabe, and Gabe’s nine-year-old son arrive at the annual family get-together at her in-laws’ sprawling estate. On the agenda are leisurely gourmet meals, tennis matches, and plenty of relaxation by the pool. But this year, Gabe’s brother Nick has invited his new flame Hannah, whom Summer immediately recognizes from a few years before. Oddly, her brother-in-law’s girlfriend claims not to know her. Yet she charms the other family members, and after Nick announces that he’s proposed to Hannah, Summer doesn’t have much choice but to grin and bear it. Then the reunion is rocked by tragedy when a family member is found dead. Though the doctors attribute the loss to natural causes, a grieving Summer fears that the too-good-to-be-true Hannah is involved, even as Gabe dismisses her suspicions. How far will Summer go to expose the truth? As she investigates just what Nick’s fiancée might have done to keep her perfect image intact, she begins to fear that the first death might only be the beginning . . .

Not illustrated. 1919 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XXVI MOTHER-WINGS The Boy's Story WHEN I accepted for Phyllis, I wasn't sure, after all, that she would come. Knowing that she didn't seem to care for Slim Grantham at all and that she never missed a chance of getting in a dig at him whenever his name came up, I thought it more than likely that my fiancee would cry off directly about coming on with me to the party at the Dug-Out, which was more or less what he'd call "his rag." Rather surprised I was, and bucked when Phyllis quite jumped at it. "Come? To see the adored Slim and his Very Latest? Oh, rather," she exclaimed in her brightest way. "Sight I wouldn't miss for worlds, the All-Conquering Slim at the Chariot-Wheels of the Girl Who's Different from the Others. How priceless! Is it a definite engagement, Jack? Does one lug in the Heavy Congratulatory Touch the moment one sees The Young Couple?" "Oh Lord no, I don't think so," said I, hastily. HI don't know that Slim's even asked the girl to marry him yet. But this is the girl that he's going to ask 'allright.'" "And of course she's going to jump at him all right: he takes that for granted." "Well, I suppose he knows whether the girl likes him; a man like Slim doesn't make mistakes there," I stood up for the absent. But Phyllis shook her bobbed black hair at me in the way that means she finds I'm hopelessly obtuse in some ways. She asked quickly, "And the Faultless Slim, is he really, definitely, and irrevocably in love this time?" "M'm," I said, trying to make up my mind about that look on Slim's face and that tone in his voice when he was unloading himself to me in my rooms. "M'm.... I don't know whether a man like that, who's always, dotted about all over the place does ever fall irrevocably' in love with anybody?" "Then...

Book excerpt: In this extraordinary breakout novel—a rich, devastatingly humorous epic of one unforgettable family—award-winning author Eric Dupont illuminates the magic of stories, the bonds of family, and the twists of fate and fortune to transform our lives. Over the course of the twentieth century, three generations of the Lamontagnes will weather love, passion, jealousy, revenge, and death. Their complicated family dynamic—as dramatic as Puccini’s legendary opera, Tosca—will propel their rise, and fall, and take them around the world . . . until they finally confront the secrets of their complicated pasts. Born on Christmas, Louis Lamontagne, the family’s patriarch, is a larger-than-life lothario and raconteur who inherits his mother’s teal eyes and his father’s brutish good looks and whose charms travel beyond Quebec, across the state of New York where he wins at county fairs as a larger-than-life strongman, and even in Europe, where he is deployed for the US Army during World War II. We meet his daughter, Madeleine, who opens a successful chain of diners using the recipes from her grandmother, the original American Fiancée, and vows never to return to her hometown. And we end with her son Gabriel, another ladies’ man in the family, who falls in love with a woman he follows to Berlin and discovers unexpected connections there to the Lamontagne family that re-frame the entire course of the events in the book. An unholy marriage of John Irving and Gary Shteyngart with the irresistible whimsy of Elizabeth McCracken, The American Fiancée is a big, bold, wildly ambitious novel that introduces a dynamic new voice to contemporary literature. Translated from the French by Peter McCambridge.
