The Whole Equation
Author: David Thomson
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0375701540
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
With the same style and insight he brought to his previous studies of American cinema, acclaimed critic David Thomson masterfully evokes the history of America’s love affair with the movies and the tangled history of Hollywood in The Whole Equation. Thomson takes us from D.W. Griffith, Charlie Chaplin, and the first movies of mass appeal to Louis B. Mayer, who understood what movies meant to America–and reaped the profits. From Capra to Kidman and Hitchcock to Nicholson, Thomson examines the passion, vanity, calculation and gossip of Hollywood and the films it has given us. This one-volume history is a brilliant and illuminating overview of “the wonder in the dark”–and the staggering impact Hollywood and its films has had on American culture.

Status Quo
Author: Nina Hatch
Publisher: Wanderlust Port Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
One chance encounter. Two opposites. And a connection that could change everything. Heath Palmer—presumed CEO and heir to a billion-dollar business—might have shoulders broad enough to bear the responsibility of keeping his family out of the press, but that doesn’t mean he can’t dream of a night off. After a potential PR disaster forces him to attend his family’s New Year’s Eve masquerade gala, he decides to don the disguise of a valet, leading to a chance meeting at midnight with a woman he could never forget. Maia Weaver has worked the Palmer gala as a server since she was old enough to carry a silver platter, but this New Year’s Eve is different. This year, she’s going to find a story worth writing. Something to kick-start her career as a journalist. When she figures out the masked valet with the soulful, dark eyes is actually Heath Palmer, she gets the opportunity she was looking for—even if she would trade it all for a New Year’s kiss. When the moment is interrupted, Heath fears he’s lost the feisty beauty who made him feel alive, but he knows he can’t afford another distraction. Not when the stakes for taking control of the company are this high. So when Maia turns up as a stewardess on his family’s yacht, he has two choices: admit to wearing a disguise to his own family’s party or lie and pretend they’ve never met. Maia’s keeping secrets too, and when Heath surprises her by asking for her help as a translator on a trip across Europe, she accepts—but with an agenda of her own. As the secrets between them continue to mount, can these two opposites really expect to work together as a team? Especially when the secret they’re both keeping is the one that could ruin everything—that this just might be love. Status Quo is the first book in a series of stand-alone contemporary romances. If you like glittery locales and destinations, grumpy billionaires afraid to admit their feelings, and plenty of slow-burn sexual tension and banter, then you’ll love this first installment in Nina Hatch’s new travel-themed series. Pre-order Status Quo to sail away with this opposites attract romance soon!
