Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Readers say: " Loved this book and could not get enough of it. Great how the stories entwined and in the end you find out what happens to all of them." "You'll love these creative and funny stories about all those things that make weddings memorable." It’s wedding season and love is in the air with five romantic short stories. From bridezilla—and groomzilla—to lost loves and new starts, these short stories will take you on a sweet, funny, wild trip down the aisle. The short stories stand alone, but they also link together with a loose thread that ties up in a perfect, happy ending. The stories are each 8,000-13,000 words in length and include: "My Fake Fiancé" When Samantha’s invited to a frenemey’s wedding, she can’t show up dateless and pathetic—even though she is dateless and pathetic. So Sam hires a hottie to pose as her perfect fiancé. But when he needs her to return the favor, Sam starts wishing the fake relationship was real. Can they turn their lies into love? "Bridesmaid Blues" Micki’s always the bridesmaid—and she likes it that way. She’s been burned so many times she just wants fun, not a relationship. Too bad her hot groomsman is looking for love, not a one-night stand. Is he the right guy to make Micki change her mind about happy endings? "The One That Got Away" Miranda’s just weeks away from what should be her dream wedding when she runs into an old flame—who’s getting married the very same day. Is it too late to make things right with the man she still loves? "Wedding Auditions" Kelly’s best bud is tying the knot with bridezilla. But before she can be in the bridal party, she has to audition for a spot. There’s one bright spot in the fiasco—the bride’s hot, funny, stepbrother. Can Kelly find love in the chaos of a crazy wedding? "Do Over" Moira’s the top wedding photographer in town, but she couldn’t have pictured a worse scenario—her high school crush is standing up in the wedding she’s shooting. And of course, he remembers her most humiliating high school moment. That was the day the whole school found out she liked the hottest guy in class, and he couldn’t have cared less. Is it too late for a do-over? You might also enjoy Lisa's other Flirts! volumes: Flirts!, Beach Flirts!, Holiday Flirts!, Fairy Tale Flirts!, More Flirts!, Reunion Flirts!, Fairy Tale Flirts 2!

"Class Flirt" (10,000 words) Martina Klein has worked hard to put the title of Class Flirt behind her, and she’s determined to show her classmates they were wrong about her.

"Crush" (12,000 words) Cathy Blake has lusted over Peter Schmidt since freshman year, and she’s finally going to tell him how she feels at their ten-year high school reunion.

"My Best Friend's Girlfriend" (9,000 words) Tate has secretly loved his best friend’s girlfriend, Alyssa, even before the two of them started dating. Now that they’re divorced, Tate’s wondering if it’s finally his chance to tell Alyssa the truth. Can Alyssa ever see him as more than a friend? "Homecoming Queen" (12,000 words) Country music star Lucy Jordan has no desire to come back to her ten-year high school reunion. The jerks in her class voted her Homecoming Queen as a joke. Plus, Lucy’s life is more screwed up than a sad country song. But she sneaks into the reunion to honor the memory of her late friend. And what she learns changes everything about her past and the possibilities for the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a contemporary review of the social practices and representations of flirting. In the wake of #MeToo, flirting has become entangled with stories of harassment and abuse that have generated both outrage and confusion. Nevertheless, this book argues that negotiating intimacy has always been an ambiguous social practice that can be risky and fraught, and examines how the presiding perception of flirting is constructed in contemporary cultural media. The book interrogates the relation between flirting and scandal, the kinds of scripts available in popular culture, and relations to feminism and other current social theories around gender and sexuality. It asks the questions; how can desire be declared? How can playfulness be understood? And what kind of language is available to speak about these complexities? Drawing from a range of media forms such as public scandal, reality television, and teen film, Flirting in the Era of #MeToo argues that contemporary flirting is both provocative and conservative in its negotiation of an assemblage of shifting values, and considers possibilities for social innovation and change in light of these competing tensions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Bewitching Russian Opera: The Tsarina from State to Stage, author Inna Naroditskaya investigates the musical lives of four female monarchs who ruled Russia for most of the eighteenth century: Catherine I, Anna, Elizabeth, and Catherine the Great. Engaging with ethnomusicological, historical, and philological approaches, her study traces the tsarinas' deeply invested interest in musical drama, as each built theaters, established drama schools, commissioned operas and ballets, and themselves wrote and produced musical plays. Naroditskaya examines the creative output of the tsarinas across the contexts in which they worked and lived, revealing significant connections between their personal creative aspirations and contemporary musical-theatrical practices, and the political and state affairs conducted during their reigns. Through contemporary performance theory, she demonstrates how the opportunity for role-playing and costume-changing in performative spaces allowed individuals to cross otherwise rigid boundaries of class and gender. A close look at a series of operas and musical theater productions--from Catherine the Great's fairy tale operas to Tchaikovsky's Pique Dame--illuminates the transition of these royal women from powerful political and cultural figures during their own reigns, to a marginalized and unreal Other under the patriarchal dominance of the subsequent period. These tsarinas successfully fostered the concept of a modern nation and collective national identity, only to then have their power and influence undone in Russian cultural consciousness through the fairy-tales operas of the 19th century that positioned tsarinas as "magical" and dangerous figures rightfully displaced and conquered--by triumphant heroes on the stage, and by the new patriarchal rulers in the state. Ultimately, this book demonstrates that the theater served as an experimental space for these imperial women, in which they rehearsed, probed, and formulated gender and class roles, and performed on the musical stage political ambitions and international conquests which they would later enact on the world stage itself.

This tragic and poetic play is the work on which his international reputation was founded. Like many of Lorca's passionate and intensely lyrical plays that focus on peasant life and the forces of nature, Blood Wedding combines innovatory dramatic technique with Spanish popular tradition.
