A ridiculous amount of money, an Ivy-league education, and a 1,000-watt smile that can charm the designer dress right off a girl. He’s also going to have a future that includes me—whether he wants it or not.

I’ve spent the last decade planning my revenge and I need a partner in crime. This gorgeous, cunning man should do fine. So, we strike a deal. I’ll help get him across the finish line and he’ll bring me into his world among the Cape Hill elite. Our relationship may be fake, but our chemistry is shockingly real. One innocent kiss and I’m struggling to hold up my end of the bargain. Wanting him wasn’t part of the plan when everything else I desire is within my grasp. The only problem? Neither of us is any good at resisting temptation.

Book Synopsis The Virtues of the Vicious by : Keith Gandal
Download or read book The Virtues of the Vicious written by Keith Gandal and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1997-10-23 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this compelling work, Keith Gandal reveals how the slum in nineteenth-century America, long a topic for sober moral analysis, became in the 1890s an unprecedented source of spectacle, captured in novels, newspapers, documentary accounts, and photographs. Reflecting a change in the middle-class vision of the poor, the slum no longer drew attention simply as a problem of social conditions and vice but emerged as a subject for aesthetic, ethnographic, and psychological description. From this period dates the fascination with the "colorful" alternative customs and ethics of slum residents, and an emphasis on nurturing their self-esteem. Middle-class portrayals of slum life as "strange and dangerous" formed part of a broad turn-of-the-century quest for masculinity, Gandal argues, a response to a sentimental Victorian respectability perceived as stifling. These changes in middle-class styles for representing the urban poor signalled a transformation in middle- class ethics and a reconception of subjectivity. Developing a broad cultural context for the 1890s interest in the poor, Gandal also offers close, groundbreaking analysis of two of the period's crucial texts. Looking at Jacob Riis's How the Other Half Lives (1890), Gandal documents how Riis's use of ethnographic and psychological details challenged traditional moralist accounts and helped to invent a spectacular style of documentation that still frames our approach as well as our solutions to urban problems. Stephen Crane's Maggie: A Girl of the Streets (1893) pushed ethnographic and psychological analysis even farther, representing a human interiority centered around self-image as opposed to character and exploring not only different customs but a radically different ethics in New York's Bowery--what we would call today a "culture of poverty." Gandal meanwhile demonstrates how both Riis's innovative "touristic" approach and Crane's "bohemianism" bespeak a romanticization of slum life and an emerging middle-class unease with its own values and virility. With framing discussion that relates slum representations of the 1890s to those of today, and featuring a new account of the Progressive Era response to slum life, The Virtues of the Vicious makes fresh, provocative reading for Americanists and those interested in the 1890s, issues of urban representation and reform, and the history of New York City.
Download or read book Temptation's Kiss written by Lisa Bingham and published by Diversion Books. This book was released on 2014-01-19 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this “vibrant, sensitive, and unusual” Regency romance, a woman must tame a beast of a man while he seeks to bring out her most primitive desires (Romantic Times). When prim English governess Chelsea Wickersham agrees to tutor the long-lost heir of the mysterious Cane estate, she expects to find a young boy eager to learn. But she is shocked to discover that her new pupil is not a boy—in fact, he barely seems to be a man. Wild and uncivilized, Sullivan Cane was only recently found on a remote island and brought back to take his rightful place within the family. But Cane is no simple beast. After years of self-exile away from his scheming relations, he was forced to return to his family estate in Scotland. Now, he continues to play the role of wild man to outwit his backstabbing brethren. Even as he grows exhausted of his brutish pretense, he takes pleasure in watching the walls of Chelsea’s façade crumble. But while passion grows between teacher and student, a sinister enemy lurks in their midst, threating their love and their lives . . . This alluring novel of deception and desire will “make you laugh, cry and leave you sleepless while you try to read just one more page” (Affaire de Coeur).

Book Synopsis The Temptation to Exist by : E. M. Cioran
Download or read book The Temptation to Exist written by E. M. Cioran and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of eleven essays originally appeared in France thirty years ago and created a literary whirlwind on the Left Bank. Cioran writes incisively about Western civilizations, the writer, the novel, mystics, apostles, and philosophers. The Temptation to Exist first introduced this brilliant European thinker twenty years ago to American readers, in a superb translation by Richard Howard. This literary mystique around Cioran continues to grow, and The Temptation to Exist has become an underground classic. In this work Cioran writes about Western civilizations, the writer, the novel, about mystics, apostles, philosophers. For those to whom the very word philosophy brings visions of arduous reading, be assured: Cioran is crystal-clear, his style quotable and aphoristic. “A sort of final philosopher of the Western world. His statements have the compression of poetry and the audacity of cosmic clowning”—The Washington Post
