[Siren Classic ManLove: Erotic Romance, Alternative, Paranormal, Shape-shifter, MM, HEA] Tommy Williams thought humans didn't have fated mates. It turns out, he does… but his mate is in love with someone else. Tommy has been out and proud since eighth grade. Unfortunately, he's never met a partner that he really connected with. When he learns of paranormals and fated mates, Tommy wishes for his very own perfect match—but humans don't have soulmates. Then Tommy meets Zach Lawson, a wolf shifter. He's instantly smitten. But Zach has a lot of baggage. No, it's worse than that. Zach's heart has belonged to someone else for years. Maybe Tommy's wish didn't come true after all. Tommy's tempted to cut and run, but he's not the type to give up—not when it's the perfect match he's always desired. Can Tommy help Zach recover from a forced mating? Can he help him get over the love and betrayal he's suffering from? Can Zach love Tommy despite the impossible odds stacked against them?

And Robert’s fears might ruin everything. Can love win? Or will life tear them apart?

An Anglo-Norman Reader
Author: Jane Bliss
Publisher: Open Book Publishers
ISBN: 1783743166
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 1044
Book Description
This book is an anthology with a difference. It presents a distinctive variety of Anglo-Norman works, beginning in the twelfth century and ending in the nineteenth, covering a broad range of genres and writers, introduced in a lively and thought-provoking way. Facing-page translations, into accessible and engaging modern English, are provided throughout, bringing these texts to life for a contemporary audience. The collection offers a selection of fascinating passages, and whole texts, many of which are not anthologised or translated anywhere else. It explores little-known byways of Arthurian legend and stories of real-life crime and punishment; women’s voices tell history, write letters, berate pagans; advice is offered on how to win friends and influence people, how to cure people’s ailments and how to keep clear of the law; and stories from the Bible are retold with commentary, together with guidance on prayer and confession. Each text is introduced and elucidated with notes and full references, and the material is divided into three main sections: Story (a variety of narrative forms), Miscellany (including letters, law and medicine, and other non-fiction), and Religious (saints' lives, sermons, Bible commentary, and prayers). Passages in one genre have been chosen so as to reflect themes or stories that appear in another, so that the book can be enjoyed as a collection or used as a resource to dip into for selected texts. This anthology is essential reading for students and scholars of Anglo-Norman and medieval literature and culture. Wide-ranging and fully referenced, it can be used as a springboard for further study or relished in its own right by readers interested to discover Anglo-Norman literature that was written to amuse, instruct, entertain, or admonish medieval audiences.

Floaters: Poems
Author: Martín Espada
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0393541045
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 75
Book Description
Winner of the 2021 National Book Award for Poetry From the winner of the Ruth Lilly Poetry Prize come masterfully crafted narratives of protest, grief and love. Martín Espada is a poet who "stirs in us an undeniable social consciousness," says Richard Blanco. Floaters offers exuberant odes and defiant elegies, songs of protest and songs of love from one of the essential voices in American poetry. Floaters takes its title from a term used by certain Border Patrol agents to describe migrants who drown trying to cross over. The title poem responds to the viral photograph of Óscar and Valeria, a Salvadoran father and daughter who drowned in the Río Grande, and allegations posted in the "I’m 10-15" Border Patrol Facebook group that the photo was faked. Espada bears eloquent witness to confrontations with anti-immigrant bigotry as a tenant lawyer years ago, and now sings the praises of Central American adolescents kicking soccer balls over a barbed wire fence in an internment camp founded on that same bigotry. He also knows that times of hate call for poems of love—even in the voice of a cantankerous Galápagos tortoise. The collection ranges from historical epic to achingly personal lyrics about growing up, the baseball that drops from the sky and smacks Espada in the eye as he contemplates a girl’s gently racist question. Whether celebrating the visionaries—the fallen dreamers, rebels and poets—or condemning the outrageous governmental neglect of his father’s Puerto Rico in the wake of Hurricane María, Espada invokes ferocious, incandescent spirits.
