Sex. Who really knows sex? I mean, we've all had sex, great sex even but when you get down to the details, how many of us actually see sex for the raw, primal act that it is? I thought I knew sex. I've had sex. Heck, I've felt lust. Once, I've even felt love. I thought I knew exactly what sex was. Until I met Cade. He's the meaning of sex. He's a biker. He's dangerous. He's powerful. He's dominant. He wants me. My world is about to change, for the better? I don't know. But here's my story, I hope you're ready for it because it's not the beautiful, heart wrenching story most people have to tell. It's passionate, forbidden, morally incorrect and downright, fucking beautiful.

A Knight's Own Book of Chivalry
Author: Geoffroi de Charny
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 0812208684
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
On the great influence of a valiant lord: "The companions, who see that good warriors are honored by the great lords for their prowess, become more determined to attain this level of prowess." On the lady who sees her knight honored: "All of this makes the noble lady rejoice greatly within herself at the fact that she has set her mind and heart on loving and helping to make such a good knight or good man-at-arms." On the worthiest amusements: "The best pastime of all is to be often in good company, far from unworthy men and from unworthy activities from which no good can come." Enter the real world of knights and their code of ethics and behavior. Read how an aspiring knight of the fourteenth century would conduct himself and learn what he would have needed to know when traveling, fighting, appearing in court, and engaging fellow knights. Composed at the height of the Hundred Years War by Geoffroi de Charny, one of the most respected knights of his age, A Knight's Own Book of Chivalry was designed as a guide for members of the Company of the Star, an order created by Jean II of France in 1352 to rival the English Order of the Garter. This is the most authentic and complete manual on the day-to-day life of the knight that has survived the centuries, and this edition contains a specially commissioned introduction from historian Richard W. Kaeuper that gives the history of both the book and its author, who, among his other achievements, was the original owner of the Shroud of Turin.

Book Description
Knight is the fourth book in the Reed Security Series and should be read in order. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up and I stiffened. He was here. I stood and looked around the room, but I didn't see anything. Walking over to the window, I looked out into the dark, hoping that I could see something. I would rather know exactly where he was than wonder the whole night if he was going to come for me. Hot air trickled across the back of my neck. My breath hitched as I felt a hand brush against the nape of my neck as my hair was shifted over my shoulder."You should be more careful when you're leaving work."His voice washed over me in that rough, deep tone that sent shivers down my spine."Why did you do that?" I asked, my heart beating out of control."He was hurting you.""I was running away. I would have gotten away."His hand brushed down my arm and then back up to rest on my shoulder. "He might have come back another night. A man like that, someone who would attack a woman just to get a fix, he doesn't deserve to live.""That's not your decision to make," I said shakily."I made it my decision the moment he put his hands on you, and I'd do it again."I spun around and faced the man that I had last seen just a week ago. "I don't need anyone killing to protect me. I heal people and that man could have been helped.""That man was scum and if he went after you, he would go after someone else. He didn't deserve to live.""Like you?"He took a step back and his jaw tightened. "I repaid my debt. You won't see me again.""I didn't want to see you again to begin with."He backed out of my room and was gone. I had no idea how he got in or how he left. He moved so silently that I didn't hear even my noisy stairs creak. Even though the man had just killed someone in front of me, I couldn't help but still want to see him again, no matter what I said. He intrigued me and terrified me all at the same time. I turned back to the window and stared out into the night, wondering if I would see him again. He's no white KnightHudson McGuire- Ex-Marine and good friend of Hunter "Pappy" Papacosta.Garrick Knight- Badass assassin on a crusade to rid the world of those he deems unworthy.Both men are lethal. Both men are obsessed with Kate Whittemore. Both men are the same man, but only one can convince Kate that he's the man for her. KnightI was dishonorably discharged from the military after I killed my superiors. They were profiting off soldier'sdeaths and I wouldn't stand for it. They were righteous kills and I stand by what I did. I was sentenced to prison,but Pappy made sure I never saw the inside of a prison cell. Ever since then, I've been working as a gun for hire,taking on any job that rids the world of the scum of the earth. Then I met up with Pappy again and all my planswent to shit.

Book Description
The monk and the knight -- the two quintessentially medieval European heroes -- were combined in the Knights Templar and in the other military orders founded in the era of the Crusades. With characteristic eloquence, Bernard of Clairvaux voices the cleric's view of knights, warfare, and the conquest of the Holy Land in five chapters on the knights' vocation. Then the cistercian abbot who never visited Palestine and discouraged monks who proposed doing so, in another eight chapters, provides a spiritual tour of the pilgrimage sites guarded by this 'new kind of knighthood and one unknown to ages gone by.'

The Knights of Modernism
Author: Branko Vraneš
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3662619326
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
According to the customary literary-historical and theoretical notion, the fact that the first modern novel represents a parody or travesty of the chivalric ideal merits no particular attention. Failing to become attuned to the real role of the chivalric ideal at the beginning of the era of the modern novel, commentators missed the chance to adequately review the role of chivalry at the end of that period. The modern novel did not only begin, but also ended with a travesty of the chivalric ideal. The deep need of a significant number of modernist writers to measure their own time according to the ideals of the high and late Middle Ages cannot, therefore, be explained by a set of literary-historical, spiritual-historical or social circumstances. The predilection of a range of twentieth century novelists for a distant feudal past suggests that there exists a fundamental poetic connection between the modern (or at least the modernist) novel and the ideals of chivalry.
