Book Description
A feel-good enemies-to-lovers romance set in a cozy English village Stefan Cane can fill out a Speedo, that’s for sure. Not that Lucy’s ever joined him at the beach, but she’s been keeping up with his Insta since they shared that sizzling hot kiss at the Jingle Ball a few months ago. The kiss she ran away from like some kind of Disney princess. Except Lucy’s no princess. And Stefan is certainly no prince. He’s the guy whose sole reason for being in her small English village is to put her pub out of business. As much as she’d like to repeat that kiss, she can’t afford to mix business with pleasure. Losing her focus means she could lose everything and Lucy’s not about to let that happen. Not even for the most lickable abs in England. Keywords: enemies to lovers romance, workplace romance, contemporary romance, romantic comedy, British humor, small town romance, international lovers

The Meaning of Treason
Author: Rebecca West
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1453207252
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 420
Book Description
West’s acclaimed examination of traitors, this gripping profile takes readers inside World War II spy rings and gets to the heart of what it means to betray one’s country Throughout her career, Rebecca West dug into psyches, real and fictional, to try to understand the meaning of betrayal. In the aftermath of World War II, West was incensed when several wartime turncoats were tried with seeming indifference—and worse, sympathy—from the British public. In exploring these traitors’ origins, crimes, and motivations, West exposes how class division, greed, and discrimination can taint loyalties and redraw the relationships between individuals and their fatherland. A fascinating book, The Meaning of Treason combines the intrigue of a spy novel with West’s classic, careful dissection of man’s moral struggles.

Sentiments of a British-American Woman
Author: Owen S. Ireland
Publisher: Penn State Press
ISBN: 0271080612
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
At the time of her death in 1780, British-born Esther DeBerdt Reed—a name few know today—was one of the most politically important women in Revolutionary America. Her treatise “The Sentiments of an American Woman” articulated the aspirations of female patriots, and the Ladies Association of Philadelphia, which she founded, taught generations of women how to translate their political responsibilities into action. DeBerdt Reed’s social connections and political sophistication helped transform her husband, Joseph Reed, from a military leader into the president of the Supreme Executive Council of Pennsylvania, a position analogous to the modern office of governor. DeBerdt Reed’s life yields remarkable insight into the scope of women’s political influence in an age ruled by the strict social norms structured by religion and motherhood. The story of her courtship, marriage, and political career sheds light both on the private and political lives of women during the Revolution and on how society, religion, and gender interacted as a new nation struggled to build its own identity. Engaging, comprehensive, and built on primary source material that allows DeBerdt Reed’s own voice to shine, Owen Ireland’s expertly researched biography rightly places her in a prominent position in the pantheon of our founders, both female and male.
