Book Description
When your chance for getting into college and your date for the prom are all on the line... Sixteen-year-old Samantha Taylor is used to having things go her way. She's head cheerleader and has all the right friends and a steady stream of boyfriends. But when she tanks the SATs, her automatic assumptions about going to college don't appear to be so automatic anymore. She determines that her only hope for college admission is to win the election for student body president. Unfortunately, with her razor wit and acid tongue, she's better suited to dishing out insults than winning votes. When she brashly bets her classmate Logan that she can go two weeks without uttering a single insult, Samantha immediately realizes that she may have bitten off more than she can chew. And when her current boyfriend dumps her, less than three weeks before the prom, it couldn't be a worse time to be forced to keep her opinions to herself. Finding a new boyfriend will be a challenge now that Logan shadows her every move, hoping to catch her slipping back into her old ways. Samantha is determined to win the election and find a dream date for the prom, no matter what it takes. After all . . . all's fair in love and war (and high school!).

Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
In the first installment of a Regency romp of a series, a governess who believes in cultivating joy in her charges clashes with the children’s uncle who hired her, only to find herself falling in love. When Harry Kincaid’s flighty older sister decides to join her husband on an Egyptian expedition, Harry, a former naval captain, is left in the lurch, minding her three unruly children and giant, mad dog. But Harry has a busy career at the Admiralty that requires all his attention, and he has no clue how to manage the little rascals or when his sister is coming back. In desperation, he goes to Miss Prentice’s School for Young Ladies prepared to pay whatever it takes to hire an emergency governess quick sharp to ensure everything in his formerly ordered house is run shipshape again. Thanks to her miserable, strict upbringing, fledgling governess Georgie Rowe does not subscribe to the ethos that children should be seen and not heard. She believes childhood should be everything hers wasn’t—filled with laughter, adventure, and discovery. Thankfully, the three Pendleton children she has been tasked with looking after are already delightfully bohemian and instantly embrace her unconventional educational approach. Their staid, stickler-for-the-rules uncle, however, is another matter entirely. Georgie and Harry continue to butt heads over their differences, but with time it seems that in this case, their attraction is undeniable—and all is indeed fair in love and war.

Languages : en
Pages : 568
Book Description
This Civil War biography sheds new light on the life of the legendary Confederate general before, during, and after the conflict that defined his legacy. Shelby Foote called Nathan Bedford Forrest one of the most authentic geniuses produced by the American Civil War, and Ulysses S. Grant said that Forrest was the only Confederate cavalry leader he feared. Sherman wanted him killed even if doing so broke the broke the Federal treasury and cost ten thousand lives. Arguably the best cavalry leader of the Civil War and undoubtedly one of the greatest in the history of mounted warfare, Nathan Bedford Forrest has been acclaimed and vilified, revered and hated, and still he is a man whose life defies categorization. This in-depth biography goes beyond Forrest’s war exploits. Here, historians Eddy W. Davison and Daniel Foxx depict a man as complex, brilliant, revolutionary, and tragic as the times in which he lived. In addition to revealing details about his childhood, marriage, and life as a businessman and civic leader, this comprehensive biography explains the alleged massacre at Fort Pillow, Tennessee, and the reasons for Forrest’s leadership in the Ku Klux Klan.

Book Description
"I hope you are well, sound of your mind and enjoying your days and nights. I know, many of your questions remained unanswered and one such question is "Why did I disappear suddenly after a stupid quarrel with you?‟ Isn't it? Yes, it was a meaningless and useless quarrel to me also, as it was to you, but the things started wrong even before. Do you remember the night; we were together in my room? Don‟t waste your time in advocating who was faulty for what happened between us but try to remember how much you changed since then. If I am not wrong, you never loved me. You started with me flirting over phone and then sharing the kitchen but still you never loved me. And your decision of marrying me was nothing but the sympathy towards me. I know, you got emotional first after knowing about my family and then about Sumit's betrayal to me. And ultimately when the cancer grabbed me, you decided to help poor Parul by marrying her but then also you were confused about your decision. You may love me from your brain, by your body but never from the heart. I loved you very much and shared everything with you even my bed but your love hurt me more than Sumit's betrayal. I had promised myself that I would not contact you any day but I did because I am again on chemotherapy, my cancer was never gone, it is now at its second stage. Doctors said nothing but I am sure that I have almost finished my journey but a month or two more. I am done. Still I love you Mr. Revolution and so I don't want you to compromise with your life, you marry a beautiful girl but remember, this time you make a hearty relation. And lastly, you can't find me out and even don't try because if you search me, you will get a heartless and frozen body only, not Parul. Be happy forever and live a prosperous life. With love, Your Parul” This is Parul's letter to Biplob. Know what was wrong between them. This book is all about the heart touching story of Biplob, a budding doctor. What are the situations he goes through? How he manages? What does love mean to him? And at the end author asks: Is Everything Really Fair in Love and War?
