Pages : 529
Book Description
A moving, unforgettable romance of defiance and desire from the New York Times-bestselling author of The London Jewels Trilogy. England's disastrous Civil War has robbed Lady Virginia Courtney of everything she holds dear—everything but her home, perched on the cliffs of the Isle of Wight. Left alone to defend it, she is powerless when the enemy forces arrive—but even more defenseless when she meets their leader, a fiercely commanding man whose eyes seem to see through to her very soul. Colonel Alexander Marshall is no less affected by his prisoner of war, the bewitching, capable woman who has seen so much loss in her young life. Though he would be justified to send her to the mainland—and to her certain death as a traitor—his hand is stayed by compassion . . . and undeniable desire. But even the most passionate love affair may not be enough to hold two sworn enemies together in the midst of war. Praise for Jane Feather “Irresistibly sexy and witty, Jane Feather is one of the all-time greats of historical romance.”—Madeline Hunter, New York Times-bestselling author “An accomplished storyteller . . . rare and wonderful.”—Los Angeles Daily News “An author to treasure.”—RT Book Reviews

Book Description
New from Eric Van Lustbader, the author of The Bourne Legacy and The Bourne Betrayal, comes Beloved Enemy, the thrilling fifth installment in the New York Times bestselling Jack McClure series. In the stunning follow up to Father Night, Jack McClure faces a choice: help the woman he loves, or destroy her as the enemy she is. Shortly after McClure leaves a late night meeting with Dennis Paull, the Secretary of Homeland Security, Paull is found-shot dead. The President is furious but equally frightened of a scandal, since Jack McClure is one of their own-an operative and Paull's friend. Who will protect the country if even McClure cannot be trusted? With top officials in the CIA and FBI after him, McClure, still devastated over his friend's death, goes on the run. Someone framed him for Paull's murder, possibly to prevent him from accomplishing Paull's last request-a task vital to U.S. National Security. Someone in the intelligence community has gone rogue and is reporting to The Syrian, one of the most cruel, aggressive terrorists McClure and Paull have ever come across. McClure has been charged with securing the name of the mole, but when Paull's informant goes missing, McClure realizes his mission has only begun. Jack may be setting off after a mole, but he knows that ultimately he will have to confront The Syrian. Which also means confronting The Syrian's lover, Annika Dementieva, the woman Jack once loved and lost. On a quest to find the mole before cloaked agents around the world are exposed and murdered, Jack will soon find himself facing his own beloved enemy...

Beloved Enemies

Publisher: Prometheus Books
ISBN: 1615926151
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 310
Book Description
Do the fractious groups of Arabs and Israelis actually need each other? Can the Pentagon find new enemies to replace the USSR? Are married couples held together by a shared sense of enmity toward outside parties and even each other? Who is more likely to cultivate enemies - men or women? Is the "devil" a created enemy? Is the need for enemies psychological, sociological, or biological? These and other fascinating questions are explored by David P. Barash as he skillfully combines findings from biology, psychology, sociology, politics, history, and even literature to shed new and unexpected light on the human condition. Barash also offers startling and controversial observations about who we are as human beings and why we seem to thrive on adversarial relationships. He argues that we create and perpetuate our "enemy system" by "passing the pain along" - from child abuse to ethnic antagonism. We may well harbor a vestigial "Neanderthal mentality," which induces us to behave in ways that were adaptive in our evolutionary past but which have broad and even global implications today. Beloved Enemies concludes with a hopeful message: We can overcome, not simply our enemies, but our need to have enemies, and our penchant for creating them. To those who seek a better understanding of the nature of conflict and to those who remain confident that we can find answers to seemingly endless and complex antagonisms, Beloved Enemies offers much food for thought.

When Ada Baldwin watches her mother die giving birth to yet another baby girl, she is changed forever by the experience. It is 1884 and Ada and her 3 younger sisters must now learn to live without their beloved mama in their midst. The younger children are not much touched by their loss, but Ada and her next-in- age sister Nell are devastated by the tragedy.

When their engineer father, Robert Baldwin is recalled to Argentina to continue his work there, it is Aunt Abigail who arrives to run the household. She is a stern, God-fearing woman and her presence in the family highlights poignantly the loss of its warm and loving matriarch. A year later, Robert returns home and announces his intention to move the family to Argentina, as soon as possible.

In Argentina Ada encounters loneliness, fresh tragedy and thanks to her sister Nell, she is briefly exposed to nascent women’s rights. In the end Ada seeks her own path towards romance, which leads to a conclusion that no one could have foreseen. This powerful account of the Baldwin’s lives is a gripping story that will keep you reading to the very last word!
