Download or read book The Creole Historical Romance 4-in-1 Bundle written by Gilbert Morris and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 1065 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Creole Historical Romance Bundle is a 4-in-1 eBook series from bestselling authors Gilbert and Lynn Morris and includes The Exiles, The Immortelles, The Alchemy, and The Tapestry. The Creoles Series is a captivating group of novels set in nineteenth-century New Orleans, revolving around the romantic adventures of four girls who become close friends while attending the Ursuline Convent School in New Orleans. Each book focuses on one woman as she faces the trials of life and faith. The Exiles introduces Chantel Fontaine, who has finished her education at the Ursuline Convent. Readers will follow her through the streets and swamps of Louisiana as she falls in love, faces the loss of both her parents, and searches for the baby sister she thought was lost forever. The Immortelles follows Damita De Salvado who receives a beautiful slave girl, Rissa, for her sixteenth birthday. She mistreats Rissa, revealing her prejudice and hardening Rissa's heart. When her family experiences financial hardships, Damita grudgingly sells Rissa to a mysterious Christian doctor, Jefferson Whitman, who is Rissa's adopted brother. Now the tables have turned: Rissa is a wealthy, free woman, while Damita's family struggles to keep the plantation. The Alchemy focuses on Simone d’Or, a vivacious young woman hardened by high society life, and Colin Seymour, a talented young man from humble beginnings. As the famed singer and composer Lord Beaufort nurtures Colin's singing voice, Colin rises to stardom in the opera world. At first, Simone judges Colin as a man beneath her standing, but after hearing Colin at the opera, she finds herself captivated by his talent and passion. Meanwhile, Simone's brother places the family name in jeopardy by his gambling debt, and she must face the possibility of marrying Vernay, a rigid young man of equal status who is feared for his skill in dueling others to the death. The Tapestry is the striking conclusion to The Creoles Series sharing the story of Leonie Vernay. Abandoned as an infant on the steps of the Ursuline Convent School, Leonie has endured the emotional and financial poverty of an orphan. Now a young woman making her way as a humble seamstress in New Orleans, she is startled by a mysterious stranger who claims to know her identity—and her relatives. Will she find acceptance with her long-lost family, or is she on a misguided quest?

Download or read book Battle Kiss written by O'Neil De Noux and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-03-25 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In anticipation of the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812 and The Battle of New Orleans in 2015, New Orleans writer O'Neil De Noux spent the two years researching and writing an epic historical novel set during that titanic struggle. BATTLE KISS (320,000 words) is an intense, accurate depiction of the battle and life in and around New Orleans in the days and nights preceding and following the monumental event. It is a saga of love and war, of battlefield heroes and lovers - a tale of spies and privateers, ladies and rogues, patriots and traitors, sudden passion and sudden violence as the battle unfolds in stages until the cataclysm of January 8, 1815, when a rag-tag army of Creoles, free-men of color, pirates, American backwoodsmen, Chickasaw, Choctaw and Attakapas braves, fortified by a limited number of U.S. army regulars and marines and led by a general whose only experience was fighting insurgent Creeks, stands between New Orleans and a battle-hardened army of British soldiers, led by one of the Duke of Wellington's finest field commanders and hero of the Peninsula War against Napoleon - Major General Sir Edward Pakenham. Centered around two Creole families (one of French descent, the other Spanish), BATTLE KISS chronicles the tumultuous events preceding the battle as frantic citizens argue over surrendering New Orleans to the British in order to save the city from destruction. They are pitted against the rock-hard determination of General Andrew Jackson and the Americans who would burn the city rather than let the British have her. During this turbulent time, two young women recognize their growing affection for several young men caught in the battle, young men vying for their love yet willing to sacrifice their lives for their new country. The story climaxes at the battle where rivals for the affections of the women stand side-by-side on that frosty January morning as the British come across the cane fields of the Chalmette Plantation. O'Neil De Noux, award-winning, international author of eight novels, seven short story collections and over two hundred published stories, was surprised when conducting his exhaustive research (forty-two source books) to learn there is no full-length saga written about the battle. Like TITANIC and GONE WITH THE WIND, De Noux's epic is a love story set against a stirring historical event. Native son O'Neil De Noux has penned a gripping panoramic novel destined to be the finest written of this explosive time when New Orleans changed from a Creole town into an American city. So timely is BATTLE KISS, the Louisiana Division of the Arts awarded an Artist Services CAREER ADVANCEMENT AWARD FOR 2009-2010 to O'Neil De Noux for his work on the epic. The Battle of New Orleans was the last time American and British armies met as enemies on a battlefield.

Book excerpt: From WATER STREET PRESS In 1872, French painter Edgar Degas is disillusioned by a lackluster career and haunted by the Prussian siege of Paris and the bloodbath of the Commune. Seeking personal and professional rebirth, he journeys to New Orleans, birthplace of his Creole mother. He is horrified to learn he has exchanged one city in crisis for another-post-Civil War New Orleans is a corrupt town occupied by hostile Union troops and suffering under the heavy hand of Reconstruction. He is further shocked to find his family deeply involved in the violent struggle to reclaim political power at all costs. Despite the chaos swirling around him, Degas sketches and paints with fervor and manages to reinvent himself and transition his style from neoclassical into the emerging world of Impressionism. He ultimately became one of the masters of the new movement, but how did New Orleans empower Degas to fulfill this destiny? The answer may be found in the impeccably researched, richly imagined historical novel, Creole Son.
