Book Description
How can I know for sure that this time he will even receive my letter or answer it, she questions. She gets up and walks a few steps, picks up a poppy flower and starts to strip off the leaves. He loves me, loves me not She strips off the petals of the flower and sighs. She lifts her face to the heavens and presses the ring to her chest, squeezing her eye lids very hard, holding it with strength and mentally picturing that she is living with Marco. The memory of Marcos image makes her laugh. I wonder where he can be right now and how he is doing in college Oh, Marco Antonio, I miss you so much, old friend. Why cant I feel you? Who are you sharing your heart with? It feels like you have vanished. Marco Antonio please comes back to me I need to hug you, dance and laugh out loud like we used to do when you were here, she cries out. At that very same moment, Marco Antonio is coming out of a party with a slim American girl named Chantal Clara Halm. Young and handsome Marco Antonio Vallardo is a real princeand one who is enamored with his childhood friend, the independent and spirited Rosa Isabell. The two share an incredible love on a small island in the Caribbean. Consequently, the union of their thoughts and hearts united at birth is interrupted by Chantal, a fortune-seeking American, who attempts to divide the two lovers and get control of Marcos fortune. With the help of Rosas secret admirer, Raul Valle and Madame Cando, the niece of a wizard, Chantal is soon engaged to Marco Antonio. At sixteen, Rosa is a Latin beauty who looks like a goddess; even so, when a beautiful and rich American woman tantalizes Marco while on a visit to the big city and steals him away, Rosa is heartbroken. Rosa can hardly believe it when her safe and happy world is shattered by disillusion. Lost without Marco Antonio or any memory from the past, it is up to her to find herself, create a new future and reclaim her true love. But is it too late? The Dreamer is a magical and passionate tale of intrigue that illustrates that nothing is impossible if the love shared is genuine.

Book Description
A totally unputdownable second-chance romance - characters with an unbeatable chemistry and a gorgeous HEA! It’s hard to stay professional when you’re stuck on a tiny island... with your ex Carrie Briggs is on the cusp of a career breakthrough. About to be made partner at her accountancy firm, she’s been given one more hoop to jump through before it can be made official. And she could think of worse clients to work with – because world-renowned billionaire Joe Hettich is flying her out to his private island in the Caribbean. But her hopes of career highs (and relaxing in the gorgeous sun in her spare time, of course!) are dashed when she meets the CFO of Joe’s company: Luke Chalmers, the man who broke her heart seven years ago when he chose his ex over her. With a storm brewing in paradise – both in her heart and literally, on the island – she’s going to have to put her big girl pants on and get through this, before all those feelings have a chance to resurface...

The Tsetsefly Chronicles

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 78
Book Description
Snippets of dislocation, shards of intelligence, a leavening of black humour, or simply the debris from a degrading brain?The Tsetsefly Chronicles show Erik Ryman at his most inspired and introspective, as he describes a love affair that never happened, the inside of his padded cell and his problems as a transvestite. Darkly surreal with a bitter after taste. This is micro fiction as it should be written, with more hooks than the average Eurovision entry.About Erik Ryman:Erik Ryman's work has been compared (favourably) to the films of David Lynch and Quentin Tarantino, the poetry of Jeremy Reed and the fiction of JD Sallinger, Douglas Coupland, Terry Pratchet and Irvine Walsh, but he has never taken it personally. He is, put simply, never predictable.

HEARTBEAT is the riveting story of a dying LA librarian who sues the U.S. Congress in a Supreme Court case demanding health care access for America's 45 million uninsured.

There are currently over 45 million Americans without health insurance. Over 18,000 Americans without health care access die annually. More than two million uninsured Americans declare medical bankruptcy every year. HEARTBEAT is their story
