Book Description
Moretti’s Marriage Command - Kate Hewitt Hannah Stewart is shocked when charismatic but callous CEO Luca Moretti, unexpectedly demands she accompany him on a crucial business trip. Until he introduces her as his fiancée, making his motive clear. Nothing, not even Luca’s deliberately single status, will stand in the way of his success. Temporarily expanding Hannah’s job description was the perfect solution, until his assistant’s hidden charms test his famed control. Though guarded single mum Hannah is the last person Luca should toy with, the tempest of passion that rages between them is too powerful to resist. But what will happen come 9.00am Monday morning? Doctor’s Guide To Dating In The Jungle - Tina Beckett Dr Stevie Wilson knows the workplace rules, but on arrival in Brazil -- in the confines of their medical boat -- she’s finding it virtually impossible to keep away from her lethally attractive boss Dr Matt Palermo. Even their hammocks are on top of one another! But the biggest challenge of all for Stevie is to prevent herself from falling in love with a man whose heart is buried deep in the Amazon jungle. Pride And Pregnancy - Sarah M. Anderson Like that will keep Tom Yellow Bird from pursuing the woman who shocked his senses at first sight. Yes, the wealthy FBI Special Agent’s job is to work a case involving the Honorable Caroline Jennings. It is his duty to protect the beautiful judge. Yet nothing stops him from acting on the attraction between them. And once he discovers Caroline is pregnant...any good sense he’s ever had completely vanishes. But when a secret Caroline is keeping is finally revealed...will Tom’s pride become his ultimate undoing? Pine Lake - Amanda Stevens The murder of security expert Jack King’s girlfriend has haunted him for fifteen years. Returning to Pine Lake, Texas, where the townsfolk still consider him suspect, might not be the smartest move, but a killer seems to be holding up a mirror to his past. The same witness to this new murder was also present the night Jack’s girlfriend died, but both times, she was sound asleep... Sleepwalking has gotten Olive Belmont into some sticky situations. Being the witness to both murders may have put her on the killer’s list. Even so, she doesn’t think the killer is Jack and is willing to help him. But will putting his past to rest ease her mind or leave her with even greater nightmares?

Green Planets
Author: Gerry Canavan
Publisher: Wesleyan
ISBN: 0819574279
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
Contemporary visions of the future have been shaped by hopes and fears about the effects of human technology and global capitalism on the natural world. In an era of climate change, mass extinction, and oil shortage, such visions have become increasingly catastrophic, even apocalyptic. Exploring the close relationship between science fiction, ecology, and environmentalism, the essays in Green Planets consider how science fiction writers have been working through this crisis. Beginning with H. G. Wells and passing through major twentieth-century writers like Ursula K. Le Guin, Stanislaw Lem, and Thomas Disch to contemporary authors like Margaret Atwood, China Miéville, and Paolo Bacigalupi—as well as recent blockbuster films like Avatar and District 9—the essays in Green Planets consider the important place for science fiction in a culture that now seems to have a very uncertain future. The book includes an extended interview with Kim Stanley Robinson and an annotated list for further exploration of “ecological SF” and related works of fiction, nonfiction, films, television, comics, children’s cartoons, anime, video games, music, and more. Contributors include Christina Alt, Brent Bellamy, Sabine Höhler, Adeline Johns-Putra, Melody Jue, Rob Latham, Andrew Milner, Timothy Morton, Eric C. Otto, Michael Page, Christopher Palmer, Gib Prettyman, Elzette Steenkamp, Imre Szeman.

Reading the Vampire
Author: Ken Gelder
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134895348
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
Insatiable bloodlust, dangerous sexualities, the horror of the undead, uncharted Trannsylvanian wildernesses, and a morbid fascination with the `other': the legend of the vampire continues to haunt popular imagination. Reading the Vampire examines the vampire in all its various manifestations and cultural meanings. Ken Gelder investigates vampire narratives in literature and in film, from early vampire stories like Sheridan Le Fanu's `lesbian vampire' tale Carmilla and Bram Stoker's Dracula, the most famous vampire narrative of all, to contemporary American vampire blockbusters by Stephen King and others, the vampire chronicles of Anne Rice, `post-Ceausescu' vampire narratives, and films such as FW Murnau's Nosferatu and Bram Stoker's Dracula. Reading the Vampire embeds vampires in their cultural contexts, showing vampire narratives feeding off the anxieties and fascinations of their times: from the nineteenth century perils of tourism, issues of colonialism and national identity, and obsessions with sex and death, to the `queer' identity of the vampire or current vampiric metaphors for dangerous exchanges of bodily fluids and AIDS.
