ISBN:
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
I was an ordinary vampire until Fate selected me as the new vampire queen. And Fate has a twisted sense of humor because it declared my sworn enemy, Rhyland Midnitegale, as the king. I'm not thrilled about the ruling, but if I don't step up to my title, the chaos, rebellions, and murders taking over the vampire world will only worsen. So I accept the position, but I secretly hope Fate will change its mind. Being queen comes with many rules that bind my heart and soul to Rhyland in ways I never imagined. And I have to trust Kingsley, Rhyland’s twin brother and my sworn protector. If I don't, my life will be in danger, and the entire vampire kingdom will suffer. But the brothers aren’t who they appear to be, and all of the tormenting they’ve done to me over the years may be for a bigger reason. I also discover that I’m bound by an ancient curse driven by madness, love, and betrayal, and the only way to destroy it might be to break one of the brother’s hearts. This is a coming of age paranormal mystery romance with a cursed love between Raven and two vampire brothers. It includes a friends to lovers romance, a love triangle, and fated mates.

Book Description
A WASHINGTON POST BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR • The New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice • A history and celebration of the many far-flung volunteers who helped define the English language, word by word. “Enthralling and exuberant, Sarah Ogilvie tells the surprising story of the making of the OED. Philologists, fantasists, crackpots, criminals, career spinsters, suffragists, and Australians: here is a wonder book for word lovers.” —Jeanette Winterson, author of Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit The Oxford English Dictionary is one of mankind’s greatest achievements, and yet, curiously, its creators are almost never considered. Who were the people behind this unprecedented book? As Sarah Ogilvie reveals, they include three murderers, a collector of pornography, the daughter of Karl Marx, a president of Yale, a radical suffragette, a vicar who was later found dead in the cupboard of his chapel, an inventor of the first American subway, a female anti-slavery activist in Philadelphia . . . and thousands of others. Of deep transgenerational and broad appeal, a thrilling literary detective story that, for the first time, unravels the mystery of the endlessly fascinating contributors the world over who, for over seventy years, helped to codify the way we read and write and speak. It was the greatest crowdsourcing endeavor in human history, the Wikipedia of its time. The Dictionary People is a celebration of words, language, and people, whose eccentricities and obsessions, triumphs, and failures enriched the English language.
