Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can She Trust a Privateer? Miss Harriet Chase has been in desperate financial straits since the closing of the Ladies’ Academy where she taught. Marriage to Sir Percival would provide for her mother and younger brother, and give her the safe, stable life she craves. But Percy won't propose unless she has a dowry. The treasure left by her father before he died might provide it, but it's in Spain. A thief just stole Harriet’s copy of the map. She has to go find the treasure now. Half the treasure belongs to the heir of her father’s friend, Viscount Sheffield. Rumors swirl around Sheffield like the capes of his greatcoat, that he’s a privateer who’s killed a dozen men and bedded over a hundred women. He has a ship and can take her to Spain, but can she trust him ... with her life, her virtue, her half of the treasure? Nicholas, Viscount Sheffield, inherited nothing but the title and entailed estates; his father gave away everything else. Nick is eager to claim the treasure his father didn’t want him to have, even if he has to bring this timid but tenacious woman with him. She has memorized what she thinks is the only copy of the treasure map. As they follow clues, sailing from London to Spain to Portugal, they discover other hunters, not just the thief, are also racing to find the treasure. Amidst their adventures, Nick discovers the most important treasure is the woman at his side. But this journey opens Harriet’s eyes to a world of possibilities. Will she still want a staid life with Percy, or can Nick persuade her that he’s the prize she wants? A lighthearted Regency historical romance, with a dash of adventure and spice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Naked Truth . . . Alistair, Viscount Moncreiffe, is much more interested in celestial bodies than the conniving ladies who are trying to trap the astronomer into marriage. But when dauntless, determined Charlotte Parnell literally drops into his arms one night, he’s quick to tender a marriage proposal when they are discovered in this scandalous position. Better a Spy Than a Bride . . . Charlotte would rather continue spying for the Crown than obey her brother’s wishes that she marry and live a quiet life. She's determined to solve an important and dangerous case before he does. After a misstep on a London rooftop lands her in Viscount Moncreiffe's embrace, the handsome scholar’s offer of a fake betrothal will simplify life for both of them. With a fiancé by her side, she'll arouse fewer suspicions. They’ll end their engagement once her mission is completed. A close call has Alistair realizing his emotions are real, and he confesses he wants their engagement to end … in marriage. But Charlotte’s plans for her future don’t include a husband or a new partner. Will she have to give up the independence she’s fought so hard for in exchange for the love Alistair offers?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Cathar recalls his recently deceased father, Alfric, as a delusional hippie, one who fancied himself an intellectual and historian. One of many far-fetched claims was that he had discovered-and then lost-documentation of a meeting between his hero, Richard the Lionheart, the scrappy Robin Hood, and the great sultan Saladin. Further, he had seen proof that Richard the Lionheart reclaimed from Saladin, at that meeting, the True Cross. Hoping to sort out the fact and fiction of his father's life, Richard (named for the great king) travels to Jerusalem to follow the trail of the holy relic, a journey that takes him throughout the Middle East and Europe, kicking up romance, mystery, and self-reckoning. Justin Cartwright's latest novel is an utter original -- exciting, funny, and profound.

Download or read book My Reluctant Earl written by Shirley Karr and published by Shirley Karr. This book was released on 2023-03-25 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did a respectable spinster end up hiding an earl in her bedchamber? Miss Ashley Hamlin has two months of the London Season to find a husband or another job at a ladies’ academy. Despite her experience and spotless reputation, rejection letters are piling up. And the gentlemen of the ton show no interest in courting this bluestocking. David, Earl of Ravencroft, is a talented musician and singer who reluctantly inherited his title after a family tragedy. He gave up the carefree life of a second son and takes his new duty to protect very seriously. Perhaps too seriously: he winds up unconscious and bleeding after defending a woman. He never expected to see again the lady he had previously rescued … yet here Ashley is, tending his wounds, concealing him and his secret identity. Despite their friendship blossoming into romance, they both have secrets. Secrets that could tear them apart and ruin their carefully planned lives if exposed. Add in David’s affectionate but nosy sisters, a patron who doesn’t take no for an answer, and a prestigious competition David’s siblings want his help to win … and his path to happily-ever-after with Ashley is anything but smooth. A lighthearted, slow burn, friends-to-lovers story with more humor than heat, just a little too naughty to call it sweet. Potential trigger warning: This story includes a Regency-style attempted date rape scene early on. Emphasis on “attempted.”

Download or read book The Art of the Catapult written by William Gurstelle and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2018-07-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calling all pumpkin chuckers, wannabe marauders, and tinkerers of all ages! Flinging things and playing at defending your own castle has never been more fun. Whether playing at defending their own castle or simply chucking pumpkins over a fence, wannabe marauders and tinkerers will become fast acquainted with Ludgar the War Wolf, Ill Neighbor, Cabulus, and the Wild Donkey—ancient artillery devices known commonly as catapults. Updated and improved instructions and diagrams illustrate how to build 10 authentic working model catapults, including an early Greek ballista, a Roman onager, and the apex of catapult technology, the English trebuchet. Additional projects include learning how to lash and make rope and how to construct and use a hand sling and a staff sling. Building these simple yet sophisticated machines introduces fundamentals of math and physics using levers, force, torsion, tension, and traction. The colorful history of siege warfare is explored through the stories of Alexander the Great and his battle of Tyre; Saladin, Richard the Lionheart, and the Third Crusade; pirate-turned-soldier Jon Crabbe and his ship-mounted catapults; and Edward I of England and his battle against the Scots at Stirling Castle. For the legions of Tolkien fans, budding backyard warriors, and engineering wizards, this book is a must-have.
