Book Description
Bertrice Small’s breathless Border Chronicles continue as a mysterious nobleman and his bartered bride untangle a plot of illicit seduction and dangerous betrayal…. Called the handsomest man in the borders, Angus Ferguson, Earl of Duin, avoids political intrigues in order to keep his small clan safe. Now, in exchange for a piece of land he has long coveted, he has wed the homely daughter of the laird of Rath, Annabella Baird, whose tame demeanor hides a wildcat. But an invitation to the court of Scotland’s Queen Mary will test their marriage as they are tossed about in a storm of deadly royal intrigue. Mary’s unfortunate marriage to her cousin Lord Darnley has driven her into the arms of James Hepburn, the dashing, powerful Earl of Bothwell. When Darnley is murdered in spectacular fashion, and his body barely cold before Mary and Bothwell wed, the queen's adversaries retaliate with a war that divides Scotland and tries the long friendship between the Earl of Duin and James Hepburn—even as it tests the bond of passion between Angus and Annabella in ways they never expected.

Book Description
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Larissa Ione returns with a new story in her Demonica series… He was an assassin. She was his lover. And his victim. Now, years later, she’s back from the dead and looking for vengeance. Thanks to an unexpected and fortuitous disaster, Tavin’s contract with the underworld’s Assassin Guild was broken decades early. But instead of freedom, he’s suffocated by guilt and regret. In many ways, he’s more trapped than he was before. In an attempt to numb his pain, he works at Underworld General Hospital, saving people instead of killing them. But nothing can diminish the memory of assassinating the female he loved…not even the knowledge that he’d done it to spare her an even worse fate. Deja remembers all of her dozens of former lives, and she knows that she only found love in one of them…until her lover murdered her. As a soul locked inside the nightmarish boundaries of demon hell, she stewed in hatred until a single, fateful event gave her one more shot at life. And at revenge. Now another specter from the past is threatening them both. Can two damaged people overcome their history to save not only themselves, but a second chance at love? **Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story.

Affectivity and the Social Bond
Author: Tiina Arppe
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317184653
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
Affectivity and the Social Bond offers a fresh and original perspective on the relationship between affectivity and transcendence in nineteenth and twentieth century French social theory. Engaging in a conceptual analysis of the works of Comte, Durkheim, Bataille and Girard, this book exposes a major transformation brought about by the sociological gaze in understandings of affectivity and its relationship to both sociality and transcendence in nineteenth century social thought: the ambivalence between the transcendence of the social and the immanence of affective experience. Revealing the manner in which questions of violence and economy are intertwined in the sociological analysis of affectivity, Affectivity and the Social Bond reflects upon the problem of controlling affectivity, alongside the political implications and possible dangers of a sociological model which seeks the roots of the social bond first and foremost in the affective realm. A rigorous engagement with the classics of French social theory, their treatment of human affectivity and its relationship to social integration and regulation, this book will appeal not only to sociologists and social theorists, but also to those with interests in social and political philosophy and the history of ideas.

ISBN:
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 34
Book Description
Relationships “Lets Get to the Point” is an e-book guide that is meant to get your relationship in the right direction. There are a lot of great books out there about relationships, but how do you actually use 100 to 200 pages of information for everyday scenarios. You can read and get really good information throughout a longer book, but when it comes time to get your point across with your partner it may be hard to put it into action. It’s just not a practical way to take what you’ve read and actually make it work in real time. Your partner may be willing to take steps to help better the relationship, but they may not have the time to read a 100 page book to do it. Some people are readers some are not. That’s why I put together a step by step guide that does not feel tedious and overwhelming. It’s simply me talking to you nothing fancy. OK people lets get to the point!

The Making and Meaning of Relationships in Sri Lanka
Author: Mihirini Sirisena
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319763369
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
This book proposes that romantic relationships—filtered through various socio-cultural sieves—can lead to the development of affective kin bonds, which underlie our sense of personhood and belonging. Sirisena argues that the process resembles an attempt to make strangers into kin, and that sort of affective relating is a form of self-conscious relationality, in which the inhabitants reflect on their individual and collective needs, as well as their expectations and dreams in the future of their relationships. University students’ romantic relationships, which they gloss as 'serious,' appear to be processual and non-linear, and are considered to be stabilising forces which are pitched against the inherent uncertainty in young people’s lives.
