Alex Sheppard likes certain things: sex, parties, and the occasional fight to let off steam. But his wild ways catch up with him when he is put on football probation due to his lacking grade point average. When Mary Trellis offers to tutor him in exchange for a date to her sister's wedding, Alex sees it as an easy ride. She's smart, hot, and all she wants in return is one weekend of his company.

Book Description
Two billionaire tycoons. One murder. An arranged relationship gone wrong. And a bribe meant to fix a mistake...but it turns into the most powerful love in the family’s history. On the outside, it looks like Malcolm takes me for a fool, but I know better. Being an engineer, you learn how things tick, including people. And while he tries to convince himself that he doesn’t like me, there are...things that tell me otherwise. Sure, he’s as sexy as hell, and he doesn’t even know it. And that’s half the problem. The other problem is that I like him, too. But when tragedy strikes and Malcolm is muscled into something, the last thing either of us needs is each other. And then his past life comes back to haunt him. Luckily, I have a few tricks up my sleeve to get him off the hook... *** One Word: crazy. Steph is nuts. One minute she’s got eyes for me, the next those eyes are daggers. Then she finds out something about me, and try as she might, she can’t stay away. Curiosity killed the cat, as they say, and that’s nearly what happened. If it wasn’t for my Uncle Dougall wanting things for me that I don’t want, the answer would be much easier. But when Steph learns about the cruel arrangement, she finds a way to help me. All this while a killer looms in the family. All this while one of the most powerful storms in history hits our state. All this while Steph makes more sacrifices that risk everything. And then she does something that answers everything...an eye for an eye...

Bad Boy
Author: Eric Fischl
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0770435580
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
In Bad Boy, renowned American artist Eric Fischl has written a penetrating, often searing exploration of his coming of age as an artist, and his search for a fresh narrative style in the highly charged and competitive New York art world in the 1970s and 1980s. With such notorious and controversial paintings as Bad Boy and Sleepwalker, Fischl joined the front ranks of America artists, in a high-octane downtown art scene that included Andy Warhol, David Salle, Julian Schnabel, and others. It was a world of fashion, fame, cocaine and alcohol that for a time threatened to undermine all that Fischl had achieved. In an extraordinarily candid and revealing memoir, Fischl discusses the impact of his dysfunctional family on his art—his mother, an imaginative and tragic woman, was an alcoholic who ultimately took her own life. Following his years as a student at Cal Arts and teaching in Nova Scotia, he describes his early years in New York with the artist April Gornik, just as Wall Street money begins to encroach on the old gallery system and change the economics of the art world. Fischl rebelled against the conceptual and minimalist art that was in fashion at the time to paint compelling portraits of everyday people that captured the unspoken tensions in their lives. Still in his thirties, Eric became the subject of a major Vanity Fair interview, his canvases sold for as much as a million dollars, and The Whitney Museum mounted a major retrospective of his paintings. Bad Boy follows Fischl’s maturation both as an artist and sculptor, and his inevitable fall from grace as a new generation of artists takes center stage, and he is forced to grapple with his legacy and place among museums and collectors. Beautifully written, and as courageously revealing as his most provocative paintings, Bad Boy takes the reader on a roller coaster ride through the passion and politics of the art world as it has rarely been seen before.

New Frontiers in Popular Romance
Author: Susan Fanetti
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476682461
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
In the twenty-first century, the romance genre has gained a growing academic response, including the creation of the International Association for the Study of Popular Romance. Popular romance has long been so ignored and maligned that seemingly every scholarly work on it opens with a lengthy defense of the genre and its value for academic study. Even the early scholarly works on the genre approach it in ways that, while primarily respectful, make sweeping generalizations about popular romance, its texts, and its readers. This essay collection examines the position of the romance genre in the twenty-first century, and the ways in which romance responds to and influences the culture and community in which it exists. Essays are divided into six sections, which cover the genre's relationship with masculinity, the importance of consent, historical romance, representation, social status and web-based romance fiction.
