Book excerpt: Enjoy this steamy Scottish romance series by award-winning romantic comedy author Evie Alexander! Brace yourself Scotland, Hollywood’s coming… Rory MacGinley wants to propose to his girlfriend, Zoe Maxwell. But what can he offer her when he’s broke, his mother’s out to destroy her, and Kinloch castle is falling down? A Hollywood superstar landing on his doorstep may seem the dream solution, but Brad Bauer’s an absolute nightmare. Brad believes in pixies, past lives, and rewriting history for his movie, Braveheart 2. And when he descends on the tiny village of Kinloch accompanied by crazy celebrities and a mystical holy man, it’s not just the castle that comes under siege. One hot (and bothered) grump in a kilt, one bonkers Hollywood megastar, and a feisty redhead who’s trying to stop them killing each other. When Hollywood meets the Highlands, things will never be the same again… Hollywood Games is a laugh-out-loud, standalone, super-steamy, small town romantic comedy with a guaranteed happily ever and no cheating or cliffhanger – Perfect for fans of Lucy Score, Pippa Grant, Kayley Loring, Tara Sivec, Lauren Landish, Lauren Blakely and Nicole Snow. It can be read as a standalone but is best enjoyed after the award-winning romcom, Highland Games. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Author Josie Juniper loves it! Hollywood Games is the second book in the Kinloch Series, and I adored the first one… utterly charming romcom with everything I love in a heartfelt-and-hilarious romance with just enough angst. Is book two equally delicious? Yes, my darlings. Smoking hot gentle giant with mad bedroom skills? Yep. Utterly winning and quirky FMC who’s so relatable as to make the story that much more immersive? Hell yes. A cast of vivid and delightful supporting characters you grow to love so much that you’re dyyyyyying for them each to have their own book? Oh, indeed. (And MANY OF THEM DO! *squeeeeee!*) Scorching spice? *fans self dramatically* The subplots are massively engaging, handled with Evie Alexander’s deft hand and trademark wit and warmth. The banter is top-shelf. Tension simmers, and the roller coaster ride of emotion is one you’ll want to board again and again. I just love hanging out with these people SO D*MNED MUCH—this book absolutely goes in the “will re-read” category. So many moving parts in this marvelous book, all of it synchronous and page-turning addictive. Download your copy of Hollywood Games today!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years, major film studios have licensed products related to their most popular films; video game spin-offs have become an important part of these licensing practices. Where blockbuster films are concerned, the video game release has become the rule rather than the exception. In Hollywood Gamers, Robert Alan Brookey explores the business conditions and technological developments that have facilitated the convergence of the film and video game industries. Brookey treats video games as rhetorical texts and critically examines several games to determine how specific industrial conditions are manifest in game design. Among the games (and films) discussed are Lord of the Rings, The Godfather, Spider-Man, and Iron Man.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A labour of undiluted love and enthusiasm' Daily Telegraph As Daniel Hardcastle careers towards thirty, he looks back on what has really made him happy in life: the friends, the romances... the video games. Told through encounters with the most remarkable – and the most mind-boggling – games of the last thirty-odd years, Fuck Yeah, Video Games is also a love letter to the greatest hobby in the world. From God of War to Tomb Raider, Pokémon to The Sims, Daniel relives each game with countless in-jokes, obscure references and his signature wit, as well as intricate, original illustrations by Rebecca Maughan. Alongside this march of merriment are chapters dedicated to the hardware behind the games: a veritable history of Sony, Nintendo, Sega and Atari consoles. Joyous, absurd, personal and at times sweary, Daniel's memoir is a celebration of the sheer brilliance of video games.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Right out of the gate, the entire game was designed to empty the pockets of those rich, celeb-loving LA suckers.”—Houston Curtis Leonardo DiCaprio. Alex Rodriguez. Tobey Maguire. Ben Affleck. Matt Damon. John Cassavetes. What do these people have in common? Not just fame and fortune; all these men are also alumni of the ultra-exclusive, high-stakes poker ring that inspired Aaron Sorkin’s Oscar-nominated film, Molly’s Game. But Houston Curtis, the card shark who co-founded the game with Tobey Maguire, knows that Sorkin’s is the whitewashed version. In Billion Dollar Hollywood Heist, Curtis goes all-in, revealing the true story behind the game. From its origins with Maguire to staking DiCaprio’s first game, installing Molly Bloom, avoiding the hookers and blow down the hall, and weathering the FBI investigation that left Curtis with a lien on his house, this is the no-holds-barred account of the world’s most exclusive Texas Hold ’Em game from the man who started it—with all the names and salacious details that Molly’s Game left out. With the insider appeal of Rounders, more A-listers than Ocean’s 11, and the excitement of The Sting, Billion Dollar Hollywood Heist is the untold, insider’s story that makes Molly’s Game look tame.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Billy Wilkerson was the most powerful man in Hollywood during the 1930s, '40s, and '50s. He was owner and publisher of the Hollywood Reporter, the film industry newspaper that became known as "Hollywood's bible," and he built the CafÉ Trocadero and other legendary nightspots of the Sunset Strip. In thirty years as Tinseltown's premier behind-the-scenes power broker, Wilkerson introduced Clark Gable and Lana Turner to the world, brought the Mafia to Hollywood, engineered the shakedown of the Hollywood studios by Willie Bioff and his mob-run unions, helped invent Las Vegas, tangled with Bugsy Siegel (and possibly was involved with his murder), touched off the Hollywood blacklist, and conspired to cripple the studio system. Perhaps nobody in Hollywood history has ever ruined so many careers or done so much to reshape the movie industry as Billy Wilkerson, yet there has never been a solid biography of the man. Billy's son, William R. Wilkerson III, has done tremendous research on his father, interviewing over decades everyone who knew him best, and portrays him beautifully—and damningly—in this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a topical resource that provides a comprehensive look at the most influential women in Hollywood cinema across a wide-range of occupations rarely found together in a single volume. Unlike other anthologies, Hollywood Heroines: The Most Influential Women in Film History is a hybrid of film history and industry information with an exclusive focus on prominent women. This reference work includes more commonly discussed categories of important women in Hollywood film history, such as directors and actresses, and reaches beyond them to encompass women working as cinematographers, casting directors, studio heads, musical composers, and visual and special effects supervisors. The wide range of filmmaking crafts covered in the book provides an acute view of the industry and increases the visibility of and quality of representation for women working in Hollywood. By bringing the experience of these influential women to light, Hollywood Heroines joins a growing movement that endeavors to dismantle harmful, long-standing industry myths that perpetuate the systemic underrepresentation of women and the devaluation of women's stories in the Hollywood film industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding Video Game Music develops a musicology of video game music by providing methods and concepts for understanding music in this medium. From the practicalities of investigating the video game as a musical source to the critical perspectives on game music - using examples including Final Fantasy VII, Monkey Island 2, SSX Tricky and Silent Hill - these explorations not only illuminate aspects of game music, but also provide conceptual ideas valuable for future analysis. Music is not a redundant echo of other textual levels of the game, but central to the experience of interacting with video games. As the author likes to describe it, this book is about music for racing a rally car, music for evading zombies, music for dancing, music for solving puzzles, music for saving the Earth from aliens, music for managing a city, music for being a hero; in short, it is about music for playing.
