2 short, magickal romances from USA Today Bestselling authors, Angelique Armae and Candace Sams. DARK HALLOWS by Angelique Armae: When a scorned witch reconnects with her vampire lover, shadows of the past threaten to tear them apart for eternity… Second chances don’t come around often, but thanks to a wish she made on a shooting star, bookstore owner and witch Majesty Paxton reunites with her former boyfriend. But reengaging with the past resurrects the dark magick that tore them apart five years ago. Can this beauty clear her favorite beast’s good name and reinstate him in the world of the living? Or will the secrets from five years ago overtake them both and destroy Paxton Hollow in the process? Five years ago, vampire Trevor MacDougall walked away from the woman he loved to protect her from Paxton Hollow’s High Council of Witches. Escaping to Scotland, he’s buried himself in work and is now the world’s top bestselling author. When he’s bitten by a bout of writer’s block, Trevor returns to Paxton Hollow hoping to get a glimpse of Majesty to stir his soul back to life. But seeing his former lover awakens more than just his creative nature. It brings out a hunger so strong, he may never be able to escape it. And neither will Majesty. GARDEN STAR by Candace Sams: A jewel is a cold thing until it’s warmed by the heart. Having climbed to the top of the jewelry industry with her naturally inspired designs, Prudence Starlight is having her first exhibit at Foxwood Cottage, in the hinterlands of a magical domain. The world’s most elite buyers of rare and exotic gems will be present, as will one of the most priceless stones on the planet - the magnificent Garden Star. As excited as she is for this chance to show her artistic expertise, Pru is mortified that her father is sending along his personal bodyguard. Just to make sure she doesn’t ‘screw up like she always does.’ Balar O’Caellaigh comes from a long line of ancient Celtic warriors. As the current steward and protector of Starlight Estates, his job description has been expanded to not only keeping an eye on Prudence but protecting a rare and priceless gemstone. What starts as a small garden party for elite jewelry aficionados ends with a magical theft that leaves both Pru and Balar with a decision. Either they get the stone back and save their reputations…or do the right thing.

Twitch Upon a Star
Author: Herbie J Pilato
Publisher: Taylor Trade Publishing
ISBN: 1589797507
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 463
Book Description
Based on author Herbie J Pilato’s exclusive interviews with Elizabeth Montgomery prior to her death in 1995, Twitch Upon a Star includes insider material and commentary from several individuals associated with her remarkable life and career before, during, and after Bewitched, including her classic feature films The Court Martial of Billy Mitchell (1955), Who's Been Sleeping In My Bed? (1963), and Johnny Cool (1963). Two of Montgomery’s many popular TV movies, A Case of Rape (which remains one of the highest-rated TV-movies of all time) and The Legend of Lizzie Borden (which will soon be remade as a feature film), were groundbreaking and remain classics. But Twitch Upon a Star also goes behind the scenes to explore Montgomery’s political activism, including her early advocacy for AIDS sufferers and the peace movement; her support for all minorities, including the gay community and the disabled; and her controversial participation as narrator of the1988 feature film documentary Cover-Up and its 1991 Oscar-winning sequel, The Panama Deception (both of which chronicled the Iran/Contra scandal of the 1980s). The book also explores Montgomery's tumultuous relationships with her father, screen legend Robert Montgomery (she was a liberal; he was a staunch conservative), and her four husbands (including actor Gig Young, who later died in a murder/suicide). Through it all—and to family and friends such as fellow performers Ronny Cox, Sally Kemp, and Florence Henderson—she was just Lizzie: down-to-earth and unaffected, just like Samantha, the "witch-with-a-twitch" Stephens, her most famous role.

TV in the USA [3 volumes]
Author: Vincent LoBrutto
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN:
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 1785
Book Description
This three-volume set is a valuable resource for researching the history of American television. An encyclopedic range of information documents how television forever changed the face of media and continues to be a powerful influence on society. What are the reasons behind enduring popularity of television genres such as police crime dramas, soap operas, sitcoms, and "reality TV"? What impact has television had on the culture and morality of American life? Does television largely emulate and reflect real life and society, or vice versa? How does television's influence differ from that of other media such as newspapers and magazines, radio, movies, and the Internet? These are just a few of the questions explored in the three-volume encyclopedia TV in the USA: A History of Icons, Idols, and Ideas. This expansive set covers television from 1950 to the present day, addressing shows of all genres, well-known programs and short-lived series alike, broadcast on the traditional and cable networks. All three volumes lead off with a keynote essay regarding the technical and historical features of the decade(s) covered. Each entry on a specific show investigates the narrative, themes, and history of the program; provides comprehensive information about when the show started and ended, and why; and identifies the star players, directors, producers, and other key members of the crew of each television production. The set also features essays that explore how a particular program or type of show has influenced or reflected American society, and it includes numerous sidebars packed with interesting data, related information, and additional insights into the subject matter.

Bewitched Again
Author: Julie D. O’Reilly
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476601615
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
Starting in 1996, U.S. television saw an influx of superhuman female characters who could materialize objects like Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, defeat evil like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and have premonitions like Charmed's Phoebe. The extraordinary abilities of these women showed resistance to traditional gender roles, although these characters experienced infringements on their abilities in ways superpowered men did not. Supernaturally powerful women and girls have remained on television, including the heavenly connected Grace (of Saving Grace), telepathic Sookie (of True Blood), and magical Cassie (of The Secret Circle). These more recent characters also face numerous constraints on their powers. As a result, superpowers become a narrative technique to diminish these characters, a technique that began with television's first superpowered woman, Samantha (of Bewitched). They all illustrate a paradox of women's power: are these characters ever truly powerful, much less superpowerful, if they cannot use their abilities fully? The superwoman has endured as a metaphor for women trying to "have it all"; therefore, the travails of these television examples parallel those of their off-screen counterparts.

Terror Television
Author: John Kenneth Muir
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476604169
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 687
Book Description
Although horror shows on television are popular in the 1990s thanks to the success of Chris Carter's The X-Files, such has not always been the case. Creators Rod Serling, Dan Curtis, William Castle, Quinn Martin, John Newland, George Romero, Stephen King, David Lynch, Wes Craven, Sam Raimi, Aaron Spelling and others have toiled to bring the horror genre to American living rooms for years. This large-scale reference book documents an entire genre, from the dawn of modern horror television with the watershed Serling anthology, Night Gallery (1970), a show lensed in color and featuring more graphic makeup and violence than ever before seen on the tube, through more than 30 programs, including those of the 1998-1999 season. Complete histories, critical reception, episode guides, cast, crew and guest star information, as well as series reviews are included, along with footnotes, a lengthy bibliography and an in-depth index. From Kolchak: The Night Stalker to Millennium, from The Evil Touch to Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Twin Peaks, Terror Television is a detailed reference guide to three decades of frightening television programs, both memorable and obscure.
