Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
'When I finished Sara Baume's new novel I immediately felt sad that I could not send it in the post to the late John Berger. He, too, would have loved it and found great joy in its honesty, its agility, its beauty, its invention. Baume is a writer of outstanding grace and style. She writes beyond the time we live in.' Colum McCann Struggling to cope with urban life - and with life in general - Frankie, a twenty-something artist, retreats to the rural bungalow on 'turbine hill' that has been vacant since her grandmother's death three years earlier. It is in this space, surrounded by nature, that she hopes to regain her footing in art and life. She spends her days pretending to read, half-listening to the radio, failing to muster the energy needed to leave the safety of her haven. Her family come and go, until they don't and she is left alone to contemplate the path that led her here, and the smell of the carpet that started it all. Finding little comfort in human interaction, Frankie turns her camera lens on the natural world and its reassuring cycle of life and death. What emerges is a profound meditation on the interconnectedness of wilderness, art and individual experience, and a powerful exploration of human frailty.

Irresistible Love Series (Books #1-#3)

ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
The Irresistible Love Series includes the following full length novels: IRRESISTIBLE NIGHTS: It was supposed to be nothing more than a hot, steamy one night stand. No names. No strings. Until I found out that he’s my father’s new business partner. He was a gorgeous, sexy real estate magnate over twenty years older than me. I was a young businesswoman looking for an uncomplicated, good time. He gave me that, and so much more. We shared one sinfully hot night together and I tip-toed out of his life, leaving just a thank you note behind. I thought I’d never see him again, until he showed up the following afternoon. With my father, who introduced him as his new business partner. IRRESISTIBLE AFFAIR: Sleeping with my best friend’s dad never should have happened, but it did and I don’t regret a thing. Not when he’d given me the hottest, most decadent night of my life. I’ve been in love with him for years, but for as confident and demanding as he is in the bedroom, once the sheets have cooled he’s riddled with misgivings. He’s already done the marriage and family thing, and he insists I deserve that, too . . . with another man who isn’t old enough to be my daddy. I don’t agree, and I’m just going to have to convince him otherwise—that I’m everything he wants and needs despite the obstacles standing in our way. IRRESISTIBLE SEDUCTION: When I’d run into Nick Pallas at an old friend’s wedding, I’d been grateful to have someone to talk to and dance with—especially a hot Greek of a guy I’d harbored a secret crush on for years. After a recent break-up, it was nice to feel wanted and desired. I wasn’t looking for anything serious, and he definitely gave me a night to remember. Except Nick wanted more than just that one night, and I wasn’t prepared for his brand of seduction—the way he made me feel, physically and emotionally. Resisting him was impossible, yet trusting another man with my heart wasn’t so easy . . .
