Book Description
It is 1802. In the struggling seafaring town of Concarneau, on the perilous Breton coast of France, people endure Napoleons increasing taxes and cultural persecution. The last straw comes in the form of a cholera epidemic, in which they lose their only healer. Captain Louis Bedard, master mariner and bereaved patriarch, begrudges God, Napoleon and the Coast Guard. With the encouragement of the mayor - who has his own agenda, which involves Bedard's single daughter - Bedard and his crew resort to smuggling as a path to quick money, which they'll use to bring a doctor to Concarneau. It's a desperate plan worked by desperate men; each month on the dark of the new moon, they slip the safety of the wharf and sail under false identities. They are skilled sailors, but most times they barely avoid the reefs and sandbars, and the risk of capture grows; Concarneaus young and ruthless Coast Guard Lieutenant Peder LaMotte is determined to arrest this unknown smuggler and his crew, gain a promotion, and thereby salvage his own damaged reputation. Bedards plan works until one stormy night when he is betrayed by a vengeful crewmember and arrested by LaMotte.

Bedard refuses to give his consent to Nicole's marriage, Nicole discovers that her beloved father is not as innocent as she believes, and LaMotte learns that the young woman who has won his affection is the daughter of a criminal. The choices they make will ulitimately determine the future of the whole town. A gripping tale of adventure, danger, suspense, hidden treasure, love and justice!

Book Description
Life is all about choices. The ones you get to make and the ones you dont. You can choose the friends you have and the people you want to employ. You can choose your battles but you cant always choose your enemies. You can choose your goals and your dreams although these things dont always choose you. You can choose what you want to eat and where you want to shop. There is however, three choices you cant make. You cant choose who you fall in love with or who falls in love with you. You also cant choose your family.How well do you know your closest friends or people you choose to have in your life? Your lovers? Your own family? The people who claim to be your friends? Even the people youve just met? Would you do to them what they would try to do to you? Would you try to take their boyfriends? Or would you simply talk about them behind their back? Theres a token few who are loyal in that world. What will your friends do for you when the chips are down? This is where Lexi lives, right in the middle of her chaotic events. Everything that happens always begins with something she says, knows, or does, often with disastrous results. She sees everything through her purple tinted sunglasses. What will happen when she loses the glasses and starts seeing things for what they really are? In a strangely humorous way, live the ups and downs of her and her friends romances. Will she choose the nice guy or the bad boy? Will the nice guy become a jerk or will the bad boy become nice? How do people react to situations they arent used to being in? Welcome to Lexis world. Her life is sent through a wringer with Church Boy Blaine, her rock star boyfriend Izzy, a famous dad she didnt know she had, and everyone else in her life. People arent ever what they seem to be. Just look at the chapter titles. That should be enough to want to know more. I would call this tale a twisted dark romance with a keen sense of humor. Something like a warped modern day Romeo and Juliet with all the modern problems. Sorry, no vampires here. Once you start reading you probably wont even miss them. There are plenty of bloodsuckers of a different kind. Careful, you might even learn something. If nothing else, youll get sucked into these colorful and sometimes unlikable peoples lives. Its all about love and hate and the thin line in between. If youre the least bit curious open it to any page and read. Youll want to keep reading to find out what happens. Youll get addicted, youll want more. I hope.

Weaving a spellbinding paranormal tale, Tracy Fobes seals her reputation as an innovative star of distinctive and intriguing romantic novels to treasure. My Enchanted Enemy Posing as a gypsy bride, Juliana St. Germaine vows to wed Cole Strangford, the sole heir to the gypsy clan that cursed her family in centuries past. Marrying Cole and bearing his child would at last break a dark spell cast amid the moonlight and salt spray of the English coast. The task at hand is a trick of mistaken identity to seduce Cole and win his hand. Cole is more consumed with locating a legendary gem and turning the tide on his family's ill luck than with thoughts of marriage. His uncle's urgent matchmaking had left him cold -- until he meets the newest candidate: a beautiful widow with haunting, captivating eyes. Now, the power of love can change the course of their entwined destinies. And though Juliana's mission may succeed, she realizes -- too late -- that she has lost her heart to the one man she should call her enemy.
