Book excerpt: “Whatever my father is paying you to go through with this marriage, I can assure you, my lord, that you will not find it a bargain.” A rebellious bride and a double deception… When Lord Marcus Northrup takes over the role of that legendary Regency Robin Hood, the Saint of Seven Dials, he hopes to add adventure and purpose to his otherwise dissipated and useless existence. But on his very first foray as the Saint, a good deed lands him in a compromising situation that leads to a completely unintended betrothal to a girl he’s just met. American shipping heiress Quinn Peverill has only come to England for the sake of the family business, at her father’s insistence. When she disguises herself as a boy to help a servant girl in trouble, the last thing she expects is to end up engaged to a complete stranger! But her father, fearing scandal that could harm the business, refuses to let her cry off. Forced into a marriage neither wanted, Quinn and Marcus grudgingly agree to make the best of it and soon discover a powerful attraction between them. But even as passion turns to love, both are hiding secret identities that could lead to arrest if discovered. If they can admit to their growing love and trust each other with the truth, it could lead to a lifetime of happiness—or to disaster.

Download or read book The Deceptions written by Jill Bialosky and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An explosive tale of art and myth, desire and betrayal, from New York Times best-selling author Jill Bialosky "Bialosky urgently captures the moment in an adult's life when reflection leads to regret, and a desire to recapture the promise of one's youth becomes a kind of desperation. A vulnerable and searching tale of art, myth, and mortality." —Oprah Daily Something terrible has happened and I don’t know what to do. An unnamed narrator’s life is unraveling. Her only child has left home, and her twenty-year marriage is strained. Anticipation about her soon-to-be-released book of poetry looms. She seeks answers to the paradoxes of love, desire, and parenthood among the Greek and Roman gods at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. As she passes her days teaching at a boys’ prep school, spending her off-hours sequestered in the museum's austere galleries, she is haunted by memories of a yearlong friendship with a colleague, a fellow poet struggling with his craft. As secret betrayals and deceptions come to light and rage threatens to overwhelm her, the pantheon of gods assume remarkably vivid lives of their own, forcing her to choose between reality and myth in an effort to free herself from the patriarchal constraints of the past and embrace a new vision for her future. The Deceptions is a page-turning and seductively told exploration of female sexuality and ambition as well as a human drama that dares to test the stories we tell ourselves. It is also a brilliant investigation of a life caught between the dueling magnetic poles of privacy and its appropriation in art and literature. Celebrated poet, memoirist, and novelist Jill Bialosky has reached new and daring heights in her boldest work yet.

In a final bid to avert a war that seems inevitable, Raphael agrees to meet an enemy he knows of old. She is formidable, wily, and not to be trusted. But in his arrogance, Raphael believes he can foil whatever treachery she has brewing. Cynthia Leighton--Raphael's human mate, beautiful, smart, and deadly when threatened. She doesn't trust anyone, much less a powerful vampire claiming to want peace. So while Raphael prepares to negotiate a treaty, Cyn is preparing for the inevitable double-cross that she knows is coming. Raphael worries about saving thousands of vampire lives. She only cares about one, and she will do anything to keep him alive and in her arms. When Cyn is proven right, when it all falls apart and Raphael's enemies draw on ancient magic to trap him, taking him away from Cyn and out of the war, it all falls to her--to find Raphael, to save the thousands of vampires who will die if she doesn't succeed . . . and to kill every single being, human or vampire, who gets in her way. D. B. Reynolds is the RT award-winning author of the popular Vampires in America series of Paranormal Romance/Urban Fantasy, and an Emmy-nominated television sound editor. She lives in a flammable canyon near Los Angeles, and when she's not writing her own books, she can usually be found reading someone else's.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wedding. A trip to Spain. The most infuriating man. And three days of pretending. Or in other words, a plan that will never work. Catalina Martín, finally, not single. Her family is happy to announce that she will bring her American boyfriend to her sister's wedding. Everyone is invited to come and witness the most magical event of the year. That would certainly be tomorrow's headline in the local newspaper of the small Spanish town I came from. Or the epitaph on my tombstone, seeing the turn my life had taken in the span of a phone call. Four weeks wasn't a lot of time to find someone willing to cross the Atlantic-from NYC and all the way to Spain-for a wedding. Let alone, someone eager to play along with my charade. But that didn't mean I was desperate enough to bring the 6'4 blue eyed pain in my ass standing before me, Aaron Blackford. The man whose main occupation was making my blood boil had just offered himself to be my date. Right after inserting his nose in my business, calling me delusional, and calling himself my best option. See? Outrageous. Aggravating. Blood boiling. And much to my total despair, also right. Which left me with a surly and extra large dilemma in my hands. Was it worth the suffering to bring my colleague and bane of my existence as my fake boyfriend to my sister's wedding? Or was I better off coming clean and facing the consequences of my panic induced lie? Like my abuela would say, que dios nos pille confesados.The Spanish Love Deception is an enemies-to-lovers, fake-dating.

Download or read book The Handmaid's Secret written by Brenda Hiatt and published by Dolphin Star Press. This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molly O’Gara is a Martian misfit. Born on Mars to Ag farmer parents, she was adopted as a baby by a high-ranking Royal family after her parents were killed. As an “Ag,” by rights Molly should have exceptional skill with plants, so the fact that she instead has a “brown thumb” is a big source of embarrassment. Because she’s not truly Royal, she also has none of the prestige that goes with that group, except for that of being appointed official Handmaid to Sovereign Emileia, leader of all Martian people on Mars and Earth. Though holding such a position is a great honor for a lowly Ag, now that she and Emileia, better known as M, are back on Earth, there is little for Molly to do in that capacity. That is, until a new boy shows up at Jewel High. Tristan, another Royal, is absurdly handsome but also totally obnoxious—and seems to have made it his mission in life to steal M, the Sovereign, away from her bonded soulmate, Rigel. So now Molly’s mission as Handmaid is to keep Tristan as far away from M as possible—even if that means spending way more time in his company than she’d like. As expected, that kind of familiarity breeds contempt, on both sides. At first, anyway… The much-anticipated continuation of the electrifying Starstruck series, where teen romance blends with science fiction to open a whole new world of action, adventure and discovery!
