When Jasmine meets Kane, she’s bowled over by her strong attraction for him. But she has a secret she's not comfortable sharing with the architect who’s sweeping her off her feet. Having been betrayed by an ex, she vows not to put herself in a position where she could be humiliated again just because she’s a steamy romance writer. Kane has a protective side that immediately takes over when he bumps into an injured Jasmine. With their instant chemistry hitting him in the chest, he finds himself wanting to protect her in more ways than one. But his life is complicated. While his engagement to a scheming woman was never about love, his breakup with her is problematic. They're fighting their attraction while trying to keep their secrets hidden. When Jasmine is blackmailed, staying away from Kane seems the only way forward. Can their love overcome all obstacles? SECRET DESIGNS Can a one-night stand turn into forever despite a humiliating gold-digger test, commitment fears, and untrusting hearts? When Ari has a one-night stand with her friend's brother-in-law, she fully intends to move on from it without any drama. But Dylan is someone she can't stop thinking about—and wanting again. Problem is, he doesn't do relationships. Badly burned by an ex, Dylan only allows himself one-night stands. But after his night with Ari, he has to be with her again, even if it means making things complicated. Their mutual attraction is too strong to ignore and one night turns into many.

For Kris, her best friend's wedding brings out desires she can't ignore. No, it's not a boyfriend she's after—her needs are too immediate for that. After a year of recovering from a disastrous relationship, all she craves is a good, hot, short fling. When Trey learns that the beautiful bridesmaid at his friend's wedding considered him and then scratched him out as a possible one-night stand, he just has to change her mind. As an anti-relationship kind of guy, the fun-intentioned Kris is perfect for him. But Kris has a bad habit of falling for playboys, and Trey's past is enough to put him off relationships forever.

Samantha intends to resign from her father's accounting practice and move to another state to follow her dream of establishing a catering business. But she doesn't want to break her parents' hearts. When her cousin suggests telling them that a man is the reason behind her decision, she finds the perfect excuse to give her hopelessly romantic folks. Adam doesn't mind playing the role of Sam's fake boyfriend. She's a friend in need and he's a helpful guy. Besides, he is desperate to show a clingy ex that they are truly over, and Sam acting as his girlfriend is the perfect solution.

And how can Adam convince Sam of his feelings when she’s intent on moving away from him? keywords: contemporary romance, romantic comedy, friends to lovers, friends with benefits, fake dating, career and love, friendships, steamy romance, box set, boxed set, collection, complete series

But it is Sorcha, the seventh child and only daughter, who alone is destined to defend her family and protect her land from the Britons and the clan known as Northwoods. For her father has been bewitched, and her brothers bound by a spell that only Sorcha can lift. To reclaim the lives of her brothers, Sorcha leaves the only safe place she has ever known, and embarks on a journey filled with pain, loss, and terror. When she is kidnapped by enemy forces and taken to a foreign land, it seems that there will be no way for her to break the spell that condemns all that she loves. But magic knows no boundaries, and Sorcha will have to choose between the life she has always known and a love that comes only once.

Download or read book Crazy Rich Asians written by Kevin Kwan and published by Doubleday Canada. This book was released on 2013-06-11 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crazy Rich Asians is the outrageously funny debut novel about three super-rich, pedigreed Chinese families and the gossip, backbiting, and scheming that occurs when the heir to one of the most massive fortunes in Asia brings home his ABC (American-born Chinese) girlfriend to the wedding of the season. When Rachel Chu agrees to spend the summer in Singapore with her boyfriend, Nicholas Young, she envisions a humble family home, long drives to explore the island, and quality time with the man she might one day marry. What she doesn't know is that Nick's family home happens to look like a palace, that she'll ride in more private planes than cars, and that with one of Asia's most eligible bachelors on her arm, Rachel might as well have a target on her back. Initiated into a world of dynastic splendor beyond imagination, Rachel meets Astrid, the It Girl of Singapore society; Eddie, whose family practically lives in the pages of the Hong Kong socialite magazines; and Eleanor, Nick's formidable mother, a woman who has very strong feelings about who her son should--and should not--marry. Uproarious, addictive, and filled with jaw-dropping opulence, Crazy Rich Asians is an insider's look at the Asian JetSet; a perfect depiction of the clash between old money and new money; between Overseas Chinese and Mainland Chinese; and a fabulous novel about what it means to be young, in love, and gloriously, crazily rich.

Book Synopsis The Vanishing Moon by : Joseph Coulson
Download or read book The Vanishing Moon written by Joseph Coulson and published by Archipelago. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Vanishing Moon, Joseph Coulson writes with insight and beauty about the American working-class, about the strength and strain of family bonds, and about tragic incidents that haunt the human psyche over a lifetime. Set in Cleveland and Detroit, the novel chronicles two generations of the Tollman family, opening at the start of the Great Depression and moving forward through five decades to the Vietnam War. The first narrator, Stephen Tollman, looks back on his early adventures with his older brother, as both boys try to shield their siblings from the confusion and vulnerability of financial ruin. Later, as World War II approaches, Katherine Lennox, musician and political activist, offers an outsider’s view of the Tollmans, mesmerizing both Stephen and his brother with her energy and ambition. James Tollman comes of age in the 1960s, and as the youngest son in the family’s second generation, he strives to understand his father and mother amidst a summer of assassinations and civil unrest. Stephen returns to finish the story, struggling to hold his own against the currents of memory and abandoned dreams. Told with the compression and intensity of a poem, The Vanishing Moon is a novel of desire, unyielding necessity, and the people and places that inevitably disappear from our lives.
