Book Description
This steamy romantic comedy box set contains the novellas Worship and Spark (exclusive to this collection), the novels Some Call It Devotion and Some Call It Attraction. Worship What happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay there. After a devastating blow, Kinsley Fitzgerald's ten-year plan is derailed, leaving her lost and confused. She needs a change. And what better way to take a break from her life than a trip to Las Vegas? But life doesn’t always go as expected, and what was supposed to be a fun, carefree weekend turns into so much more. Getting married to a stranger definitely wasn’t part of her plan. No matter how much she’s attracted to the man she just met. Some Call It Devotion What would you do if you found out that you’re married but can’t remember your wedding? Kinsley Fitzgerald thought the hardest part of getting married was planning the wedding. Turns out it’s getting divorced from the man she can’t remember saying yes to. Tracking down her husband was easy. Getting him to sign the divorce papers isn’t. Because Landon West has an agenda: He’ll sign the papers if she lives with him for twenty-one days. If she still wants to get a divorce at the end, he’ll give it to her. Running out of time and options, she agrees to the deal and realizes her mistake as soon as she’s moved in. Because what if she doesn’t want their marriage to end once the twenty-one days are up? But that isn’t an option. She’s engaged to another man, and they’re getting married in less than three months. She has three weeks to decide, and he’s determined not to make it easy. This is the fourth book in the Sweet Dreams series and can be read as a standalone. Some Call It Attraction He grew up with champagne and caviar. She grew up with burgers and boxed wine. But they became best friends anyway. Grayson Jones was always certain that Rayna Montgomery would be in his life forever. They were as opposite as two people could get, but it didn’t stop them from becoming inseparable. When a lie tears them apart, Rayna is heartbroken but certain that walking away is the right thing to do. Years later, Rayna lands a role as a contestant on a reality TV show. The last person she expects to run into on set is Grayson, reminding her of the easy friendship they once had. And the feelings they both tried so hard to ignore resurface. And this time, they refuse to stay buried. What will Grayson do when he finds out the reason Rayna left all those years ago? Because she can’t walk away a second time. Not even when being with him could get her kicked off the show. This is the fifth book in the Sweet Dreams series and can be read as a standalone. Spark Keeping things professional has never been harder (pun intended). Glenys never thought she’d end up in a quirky little town called Humptulips. And she definitely never expected to feel an instant connection with a handsome and funny stranger who seems to have a slight tea doily fetish. The only problem: he’s her coworker, and once they find out, they agree to keep things strictly professional. But she can’t stop thinking about the man who haunts her every waking moment. But is a man she barely knows worth risking her dream job for? Note from the author: In order not to get kicked out of the good (okay goodish.... fine, sometimes good) girls club, I’d like to point out that this is a steamy romcom and my characters use bad language (sometimes) and like to get it on.

Grace Norton [Gethin] and Frances (Freke) Norton
Author: Bernadette Andrea
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351932276
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 579
Book Description
This facsimile edition features the intimately related writings of a mother, Lady Frances Norton (1640-1731), and her daughter, Lady Grace Gethin (1676-97). The posthumous publication of Gethin's collection of essays Misery's Virtues Whet-Stone (1699) was sponsored by her mother; subsequently Norton invoked her maternal grief as the grounds for publishing her own essay collection The Applause of Virtue to which is appended Memento Mori: Or, Meditations on Death (1705). These essay collections unconventionally privilege a female perspective on traditional topics such as friendship, love, marriage and death. Accordingly, they hold an intrinsic interest for their gendered point of view, as well as an extrinsic interest for their conditions of production. Norton's final published work, A Miscellany of Poems, Compos'd and work'd with a Needle, on the Backs and Seats &c. Of several Chairs and Stools (1714), further reprises the theme of maternal grief as the justification for women's writing. This extremely rare volume, which has not been listed in the English Short-Title Catalogue until now, is being reissued here for the first time since 1714.

To Boldly Go
Author: Djoymi Baker
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1838609733
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 173
Book Description
Today's media, cinema and TV screens are host to new manifestations of myth, their modes of storytelling radically transformed from those of ancient Greece. They present us with narratives of contemporary customs and belief systems: our modern-day myths. This book argues that the tools of transmedia merchandising and promotional material shape viewers' experiences of the hit television series Star Trek, to reinforce the mythology of the gargantuan franchise. Media marketing utilises the show's method of recycling the narratives of classical heritage, yet it also looks forward to the future. In this way, it reminds consumers of the Star Trek story's ongoing centrality within popular culture, whether in the form of the original 1960s series, the later additions such as Voyager and Discovery or J. J. Abrams' `reboot' films. Chapters examine how oral and literary traditions have influenced the series structure and its commercial image, how the cosmological role of humanity and the Earth are explored in title sequences across various Star Trek media platforms, and the multi-faceted way in which Internet, video game and event spin-offs create rituals to consolidate the space opera's fan base. Fusing key theory from film, TV, media and folklore studies, as well as anthropology and other specialisms, To Boldly Go is an authoritative guide to the function of myth across the whole Star Trek enterprise.

A Most Mysterious Union
Author: Steve Wilkerson
Publisher: Chiron Publications
ISBN: 1630514128
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
Readers today are especially thrilled by the prospect of good news. Drought and global warming, civil war and famine, poverty and economic inequity—yes, bad news abounds. This book by Dr. Stephen Wilkerson, on the other hand, is about hope and optimism for the future. The recorded history of our world is largely one of a sometimes worthy patriarchal striving. It has, however, all too often been tarnished, marred, and horribly disfigured by the hatreds, intolerance, and destruction that have accompanied it. And the good news? There is another way, poignantly and persuasively outlined nearly two hundred years ago by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, involving the Divine Feminine. Goethe’s masterpiece, Faust, involves an immensely intelligent but profoundly narcissistic man, who cruelly and selfishly exploits and ultimately ruins the life of an innocent maiden. In the legend on which Goethe’s great work is based, Faust understandably winds up in Hell, just as he does in virtually every version of this well-known wager with the Devil. But in Goethe’s interpretation, the deeply flawed protagonist is received into Heaven by the Mother of God Herself. How and why can this be? Mankind’s long history of heroic accomplishment has never been sufficiently tempered by a sense of global community and cooperation that mitigate the horror and devastation that ever seem to march along beside a single-minded struggle to achieve and prevail. And how may this missing unity be brought about? Alchemy as understood in this book has nothing to do with an early and misguided chemistry and everything to do with the sort of individual transformation necessary for a better, more gracious, more inclusive world. The millennial patterns of blind violence and repression can only be ameliorated by a thoughtful and genuine embrace of open-minded reception of difference and heart-felt valuation of a larger, borderless world in which all grow together rather than further apart. Such is the promise of the final words in Goethe’s Faust: “The Divine Feminine leads us forward.”
