Book Description
DonBeing a firefighter is not just a job for me. It's a mission. As soon as that bell rings and I put on my protective gear, I'm all business. One false move could cost a life. Rescue Four is the best in Williamsport.One night a deadly fire almost kills my best friend and squad mate, Corey. A fire I know is the result of arson. As the squad investigator, it's my responsibility to get to the bottom of what happened that night. When the leading investigator at headquarters shows himself useless, I resort to working with Jocelyn, Corey's twin sister. It's enough figuring out how I'm going to solve this case while also keeping her safe. The biggest challenge is figuring out how to get her to trust that I won't hurt her like the men in her past.JocelynMen can't be trusted when it comes to matters of the heart. That's not me being bitter. It's a reality that I've learned from experience. Now, I use my skills as a private investigator to help women find out the truth. I'm happy doing it, and it affords me a good living.While I don't hate all men, I do believe most are unapologetic cheaters. As such, I don't have any false notions of riding off into the sunset with one or getting my happily ever after. It's an easy stance to keep up as long as I stay away from the one man who brings out a longing in me I didn't know was still there.Distance proves difficult when I discover someone is after Rescue Four, and that same someone is responsible for my brother's injury. Once I step in to help Don, I have to remind myself falling for him is not an option. No matter how many nights he ends up in my bed.Love only leads to heartbreak.Unfortunately, I soon have to contend that Don is not only good at putting out fires. He's adept when it comes to starting them too. The fiery blaze of want and desire he ignites.

Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
"If you want to live the spectacular life, then you have to love and dream big." It is the endless summer of 2019, just before the pandemic, when two of the most adorable and larger-than-life characters are about to cross paths. Ella, a young fashionable, witty and fun-loving woman from the city of Montréal, has the mighty ambition of making exciting and game-changing entertainment productions for Netflix. Bloom, a handsome young Brit and thrill-seeking entrepreneur from London, has it all; perfect life and good looks—yet, he is searching for something more. He is visiting Montréal from London and staying in the city for a week. On one adventurous night, their two worlds collide when they randomly meet on the streets of Montréal, and their encounter turns into a fiery romance across New York, Toronto, Niagara Falls, Montréal, Vancouver and London. From making passionate love in New York City at Kimpton on the twenty-first floor while holding on to the large glass windows overlooking the lit up Empire State Building, to romantically kissing under the magical waterfalls of Niagara and witnessing galaxies within galaxies of stars on their road trip… Is Bloom the dream guy Ella has been waiting for all of her life?

I enjoyed every single minute of the editing of a very captivating and compelling story." Johanna, New York Times Bestseller Editor. "I love this story. It gives me somewhat of a Fifty Shades of Grey vibe, how Ella and Bloom feel about each other. Brilliant!" Erin-Leigh. "I love that your story is set in Montréal and London! Two of my favourite cities in the world! I love the main characters Ella and Bloom. These characters are extremely likeable." Alexandra.

The Flower of Empire
Author: Tatiana Holway
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199911169
Category : Gardening
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
In 1837, while charting the Amazonian country of Guiana for Great Britain, German naturalist Robert Schomburgk discovered an astounding "vegetable wonder"--a huge water lily whose leaves were five or six feet across and whose flowers were dazzlingly white. In England, a horticultural nation with a mania for gardens and flowers, news of the discovery sparked a race to bring a live specimen back, and to bring it to bloom. In this extraordinary plant, named Victoria regia for the newly crowned queen, the flower-obsessed British had found their beau ideal. In The Flower of Empire, Tatiana Holway tells the story of this magnificent lily, revealing how it touched nearly every aspect of Victorian life, art, and culture. Holway's colorful narrative captures the sensation stirred by Victoria regia in England, particularly the intense race among prominent Britons to be the first to coax the flower to bloom. We meet the great botanists of the age, from the legendary Sir Joseph Banks, to Sir William Jackson Hooker, director of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, to the extravagant flower collector the Duke of Devonshire. Perhaps most important was the Duke's remarkable gardener, Joseph Paxton, who rose from garden boy to knight, and whose design of a series of ever-more astonishing glass-houses--one, the Big Stove, had a footprint the size of Grand Central Station--culminated in his design of the architectural wonder of the age, the Crystal Palace. Fittingly, Paxton based his design on a glass-house he had recently built to house Victoria regia. Indeed, the natural ribbing of the lily's leaf inspired the pattern of girders supporting the massive iron-and-glass building. From alligator-laden jungle ponds to the heights of Victorian society, The Flower of Empire unfolds the marvelous odyssey of this wonder of nature in a revealing work of cultural history.
