Book Description
A king without an heir must be in want of a queen. Baris has sacrificed his health to bring peace to the kingdom. He has always put the needs of the crown above his own, even entering into a loveless marriage for a political alliance. He bore it all with stoic dignity. Now the queen is dead and he must select a new queen. Someone who brings wealth or influence. Someone with the approval of the council. So why can’t he stop thinking of the human doctor with the fine eyes? He rescued her when a portal dumped her on a wild moon and he may have made some unflattering remarks about her person. He needs to correct this mistake. He offers her a position at the palace as a medic, fully intending to win her affections. The council won’t approve. Lenore barely tolerates him but his heart is most ardent and will not be denied. First impressions matter. And King Baris? The worst. He’s beautiful and powerful, sure, and he also has an enormous… ego. Lenore overhears what he really thinks of her-- not flattering, by the way-- and isn’t going to stick around to be insulted. So why then does she accept his job offer? Must be the alien gravity playing tricks on her. You don’t get a second chance at a first impression. Shadow Mark is a slow burn alien romance with a king, a stubborn doctor, and Happily Ever After. No cheating. It is the sequel to Splintered Shadow but can be read alone. So now you have to ask yourself, why not read both?

Book Description
When a god wants you dead, it's safe to assume life can't get any worse. Wrong. I'm enemy-number-one to a powerful fae and I've ticked off the Master of the vampires one too many times. Life-or rather, death-is coming at me fast. I definitely didn't expect a demon placing a bounty on me to be added to the what-the-hell-else-could-go-wrong Bingo card. Adding to my problems, the two men in my life are pushing me to make a choice that could not only cost me a friendship but a valued ally. What do I do when: one of the most powerful beings in the world wants me dead, I'm out of my depth in unknown magic, and my allies could become my enemies? I'll do what I always do when I'm against the ropes or cornered-fight harder. Because there is only one option: Survive.

The Eagle's Shadow
Author: Mark Hertsgaard
Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Giroux
ISBN: 0374706328
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
What America looks like to the rest of the world Americans rarely used to think about the outside world. As the mightiest nation in history, the United States could do as it pleased. Now Americans have learned the hard way that what outsiders think matters. When terror struck last September 11, author Mark Hertsgaard was completing a trip around the world, gathering perceptions about America from people in fifteen countries. Whether sophisticated business leaders, starry-eyed teenagers, or Islamic fundamentalists, his subjects felt both admiring and uneasy about the United States, enchanted yet bewildered, appalled yet envious. This complex catalogue of impressions--good, bad, but never indifferent--is the departure point for a short, pointed essay in the tradition of Common Sense and The Fate of the Earth. How can the world's most open society be so proud of its founding ideals yet so inconsistent in applying them? So loved for its pop culture but so resented for its high-handedness? Exploring such paradoxes, Hertsgaard exposes uplifting and uncomfortable truths that force natives and outsiders alike to see America with fresh eyes. "Like it or not, America is the future," a European tells Hertsgaard. In a world growing more American by the day, The Eagle's Shadow is a major statement about and to the place everyone discusses but few understand.
