Book Description
The amazing story of a groundbreaking scientific quest over five continents to study our modern dinosaurs—that ends up changing a life, as well as our understanding about crocodiles and their relatives. A born naturalist and a fearless traveler, Vladimir Dinets wrote travel guides, conducted field research, and lived a couple of lives before he was accepted into the PhD program in zoology at the University of Miami. He thought crocodiles were a dead-end research topic—survivors from the age of the dinosaurs but not much else—until he witnessed groups of up to seventy alligators performing mating choruses that included infrasound vibrations—a form of communication extremely rare in nature—and a “dance” unknown in the scientific literature but that resembled a scene from Jurassic Park. To prove his thesis about the language of crocodiles, he spent the next six years traveling around the world on shoestring budgets and in extreme circumstances, studying almost every living species. At the same time, as a man desiring companionship in life, he sought love. With adventures on five continents, Dragon Songs is his account of this quest. It includes an escape from a boiling lava lake in the Afar Desert, being chased up a tree by a tiger in India, hitching a ride with a cocaine smuggler in Bolivia, and diving with giant Greenland sharks—all in the name of studying crocodiles, among which he routinely paddled in his inflatable kayak. Of course, not everything went according to plan. But, in the end, his ground-breaking research helped change the field. And during the course of his adventures, he met and courted his future wife.

Book Description
"My body burns for him. It would be so easy to take him, to take what he offers me, to mate him. But I cannot. I must do my duty to my people." Reece knows the Dragons are dying out. He's given up hope of ever taking a mate for himself, as the sacred male omegas capable of carrying dragon young were hunted to extinction. But when Reece stumbles upon Matthew Stiles and recognizes him for the sacred omega he is, Reece knows that he must do everything in his power to protect the man - the only spark of hope for his race. Matthew can't deny that Mr. Tall, Dark, and Scrumptious is gorgeous and intense, but right now? He doesn't have time for distractions. He's more concerned about finding a job - any job in his field. A Master's in Paleontology doesn't go as far as it used to. The last thing that Matthew expects when he's invited to a secret dig is for Reece to show up at the hotel he is staying in - but when Reece saves from him being attacked by a group of men calling themselves the Templars, Matthew can't help but to start taking Reece's wild claims more seriously. Reece is only 800 years old - not old enough to breed. He should adhere to his people's laws, relinquishing his claim, and take Matthew before the dragon elders. Matthew ought to run far away from any man who claims to be a mythological beast. But when sparks flare, will the pull of their bodies be enough to forge a connection of the heart? Sacred Omega is the first book in the Guardian Dragons series. With rich worldbuilding and a satisfying happily ever after, this book is scorchingly hot, packed with adventure, and sets the stage for an epic struggle between the bonds of love and the darkness of hate. This book and every other book in the Guardian Dragons Series can be read in any order.

Book Description
Today we associate the Renaissance with painting, sculpture, and architecture—the “major” arts. Yet contemporaries often held the “minor” arts—gem-studded goldwork, richly embellished armor, splendid tapestries and embroideries, music, and ephemeral multi-media spectacles—in much higher esteem. Isabella d’Este, Marchesa of Mantua, was typical of the Italian nobility: she bequeathed to her children precious stone vases mounted in gold, engraved gems, ivories, and antique bronzes and marbles; her favorite ladies-in-waiting, by contrast, received mere paintings. Renaissance patrons and observers extolled finely wrought luxury artifacts for their exquisite craftsmanship and the symbolic capital of their components; paintings and sculptures in modest materials, although discussed by some literati, were of lesser consequence. This book endeavors to return to the mainstream material long marginalized as a result of historical and ideological biases of the intervening centuries. The author analyzes how luxury arts went from being lofty markers of ascendancy and discernment in the Renaissance to being dismissed as “decorative” or “minor” arts—extravagant trinkets of the rich unworthy of the status of Art. Then, by re-examining the objects themselves and their uses in their day, she shows how sumptuous creations constructed the world and taste of Renaissance women and men.
