In this delightfully madcap sequel to The Royal Treatment, the Baranov family is back and as unpredictable as ever, and a prickly princess and cranky Ph.D. are about to discover that love conquers attitude every time. . .

Book Synopsis Double Dealing III: The Pun by : Chuck Closson
Download or read book Double Dealing III: The Pun written by Chuck Closson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-05 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pun is Older than Punctuation The start and use of punctuation occurred around 1500 AD. Prior to this no commas, periods, quotation marks, etc., were used in writing. What one doesn't have, one learns to do without. Books then were rare, no printing presses. Somewhere in those early years someone decided interpretative marks were needed to enhance writing. Yet puns were employed much earlier. In the New Testament, Matthew 16:18, Jesus is quoted as having said, "You are Peter, on this rock, I will build my Church". The word Peter in that ancient language translates as "rock. In effect a pun. Another early pun the headless horseman wore an unusual necklace. A young St. Augustine prayed, "Lord, make me pure, but not yet". Someone punned him as being a "roaming Catholic". Puns are inferential; they twist together meanings and entwine connections to enhance incongruity. No ifs, ands, or butts. Just a few months ago the White House and Congress faced the Fiscal Cliff. After weeks of back and forth wrangling only a few hours remained before going over the cliff to higher taxes. Expressing her disfavor toward a do nothing Congress, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said, punningly, "Congress, it's all about time, it's about time!"

Book excerpt: In Coherence, the capital of the kingdom of Ventana, Eloita serves faithfully as a guard to Viscount and Viscountess Giles. Her days are a blend of routine and responsibility, but she dreams of returning to her northern hometown, Woods Edge, hoping to apply her hard-earned skills there. This longing, however, takes an unexpected turn when the viscount announces his intent to relocate the entire household farther north—and Eloita suspects they might be heading to Woods Edge itself, nestled in the shadow of the dangerous and mysterious Sablewood. Despite her misgivings, Eloita is ordered to accompany the viscount and his household on their journey. To make things more complicated, her role places her in close proximity to an attractive noble, whom she knows she must have nothing to do with if she values her job and reputation. This trip will be dangerous, she has no doubt. She just hopes the viscount isn't up to something that will place him into danger she can't protect him from. Cypriel has always been enchanted by tales of the Sablewood. So when his uncle assigns him to travel to a small village within its shadow alongside Viscount Giles, he is both annoyed and delighted—annoyed because the viscount is the worst kind of obsequious; delighted because he finally has the opportunity to discover the secrets of this mysterious forest. To make things more complicated, one of the viscount's guard's is from the region, and he finds her intelligent, knowledgeable, and of course, beautiful. But he knows he's being watched closely by the viscount. He has to be on his best behavior, and that means no scheming, no shenanigans, and definitely no romance. Together, Eloita and Cypriel step into the unknown, where ancient woods whisper of forgotten magic, and their destinies intertwine with the secrets that lie in the heart of the Sablewood. As they venture deeper into a world neither of them fully understands, they must confront not only the mysteries of the forest but the truths within themselves.
