Pages : 286
Book Description
A Misdiagnosis Leads to Love Lessons and Discovery of True Love Mobile, Alabama and various Caribbean islands Twenty-seven-year-old children's librarian, Whitney Smith, has six-months to live—or so she thinks. Shunning treatment, she chooses to live out her bucket-list in the time she has left. Topping her list is losing her embarrassing virginity to a fabulous lover with whom she can have a mad, passionate (albeit temporary) affair on an exotic Caribbean island. Dr. Eric Townsend, a renowned and brilliant volcanologist with a taste for danger, is entranced with the self-assured and sensual Whitney, so much so that he's fallen deeply in love and wants a permanent relationship. Whitney returns to Mobile, feeling ill and preparing to die only to discover her disease is treatable, and her most recent illness is a temporary condition called pregnancy. Broke, jobless and having presented herself as a fraud to the man who loves her, Whitney reaches out to Eric to see if he can love the “real” her in the hope of a genuine and lasting happy-ever-after. But love has many lessons. Publisher's Note: This story is a re-write of a story titled Love Play, set in the 1990s. Refreshingly free of modern technology, the story concludes in the present with some delightful surprises and a connection to Love Trade, book one in this series.

Women Medievalists and the Academy, Volume 2
Author: Jane Chance
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666754544
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 527
Book Description
Long overlooked in standard reference works, pioneering women medievalists finally receive their due in Women Medievalists and the Academy. This comprehensive edited volume brings to life a diverse collection of inspiring figures through memoirs, biographical essays, and interviews. Covering many different nationalities and academic disciplines—including literature, philology, history, archaeology, art history, theology or religious studies, and philosophy—each essay delves into one woman’s life, intellectual contributions, and efforts to succeed in a male-dominated field. Together, these extraordinary personal histories constitute a new standard reference that speaks to a growing interest in women’s roles in the development of scholarship and the academy. The collection begins in the eighteenth century with Elizabeth Elstob and continues to the present, and includes—among more than seventy profiles—such important figures as Anna Jameson, Lina Eckenstein, Georgiana Goddard King, Eileen Power, Dorothy L. Sayers, Dorothy Whitelock, Susan Mosher Stuard, Marcia Colish, and Caroline Walker Bynum, among others.
