Book Description
“Women should fight at my side as Shield-maidens, or warm my bed. What they should not do is shoe my horse, because that takes real skill.” Isla Sinclair is celebrating becoming a blacksmith on the remote Scottish island she calls home when a mysterious stranger steps out of the misty night and sends her hormones racing. Isla and sex have been strangers for too long. She’s more accustomed to working hot metal than a hot man, and when this hard-muscled individual demands she ease his aching limbs with extra services, Isla’s not impressed. But…twenty-first century hospitality surely dictates she offer him a bed for the night. Ragnar Rask, King of a Viking settlement in 800 A.D., has taken Viking wanderlust to new levels in his hunt for a suitable queen to fight at his side, bear his children and continue his line. Strong, resourceful Isla may be his chosen mate. But luring her back to his own times leads straight into danger. An evil priest’s magical powers have increased in Ragnar’s absence, threatening everything he holds dear. Does a time-travelling Fire Witch possess powers to defeat a dangerous warlock and claim her rugged mate?

Blood And Thunder
Author: Liam O’Callaghan
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 184488662X
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Liam O'Callaghan's revelatory Blood and Thunder shows that the rise of Irish rugby is inextricable from the tensions, debates and divisions – of politics, religion and class – that have defined modern Irish history. Despite the political partition of the island, Ireland competes at rugby internationally with an all-island team – and with a bespoke anthem that nobody loves but everyone tolerates. Ireland has become a leading rugby nation despite its tiny population and the fact that the sport is only the fourth most popular team game on the island by participation. In Blood and Thunder, O’Callaghan traces the dramatic evolution whereby a rugby nation that was deeply attached to amateurism has made such a dramatic success of professionalism. From the sequence of events that led Ireland's private Catholic secondary schools to embrace rugby, to the controversies and crises that have shaken Irish rugby – including the Northern Troubles, the Belfast rape trial, and the rising toll of head injuries – Blood and Thunder tells the rich and fascinating story of Irish rugby. Blood and Thunder is more than a social and political history of Irish rugby. It is also a shadow-history of modern Ireland, rooted in brilliant original research and packed with terrific stories.

Languages : en
Pages : 149
Book Description
A warrior witch determined to save her people. A dragon hoarding the magic she needs. One sacrifice to melt his dragon’s diamond-hard heart… The Great Spirit has spoken. Abra has been chosen to save her people from a curse. Much as she hates leaving her orphaned younger siblings, Abra can’t deny she relishes the chance to put her warrior skills to the test. But there’s a catch. To destroy the evil Sorceress who cast the spell, she needs more than cold steel. She needs strong magic. To get it, she must seduce Bahkran, guardian of all magical power. In Abra’s view, men’s brain cells never stray far above their belts. Even the wickedly frustrating hero type who’s been taunting Abra in her dreams. But sacrificing her innocence is nothing compared to the barren fate that awaits her people if she fails. Bahkran hasn’t been tempted to break his vow of celibacy for centuries. But if Abra is brave enough to face the Sorceress, it’s worth the effort to emerge from her dreams for a few minutes of amusement. Their first coupling will be extraordinary. He has Seen it. But he cannot know that playing with this human female will be like stepping on a scorpion. Or that she’ll make him burn with the kind of passion that melts the heart of his dragon… Goodreads Review: "Even though it is not in my usual genre I really liked it. You will read about shapeshifters and evil sorceresses. Good battling evil and spells. It was a fun read." Janie

Pages : 400
Book Description
An instant New York Times bestseller, this prequel to the acclaimed Cork O’Connor series is “a pitch perfect, richly imagined story that is both an edge-of-your-seat thriller and an evocative, emotionally charged coming-of-age tale” (Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author) about fathers and sons, small-town conflicts, and the events that shape our lives forever. Aurora is a small town nestled in the ancient forest alongside the shores of Minnesota’s Iron Lake. In the summer of 1963, it is the whole world to twelve-year-old Cork O’Connor, its rhythms as familiar as his own heartbeat. But when Cork stumbles upon the body of a man he revered hanging from a tree in an abandoned logging camp, it is the first in a series of events that will cause him to question everything he took for granted about his hometown, his family, and himself. Cork’s father, Liam O’Connor, is Aurora’s sheriff and it is his job to confirm that the man’s death was the result of suicide, as all the evidence suggests. In the shadow of his father’s official investigation, Cork begins to look for answers on his own. Together, father and son face the ultimate test of choosing between what their heads tell them is true and what their hearts know is right. In this “brilliant achievement, and one every crime reader and writer needs to celebrate” (Louise Penny, #1 New York Times bestselling author), beloved novelist William Kent Krueger shows that some mysteries can be solved even as others surpass our understanding.
