Book Description
In a world where destroying art is forbidden, mistakes are not easily erased. The Tower of Theo is the story of how tribulation withered the endurance of three men's friendship: Leander, the rational artist; Demetrius, the sentimental confidant; and Theo, the imaginative adventurist. The past comes back to haunt the trio, and the stakes rise when the artists' creations emerge from the canvas, bringing their paintings, and their pasts, to life. After two decades of severed communications following an untimely death, a letter from Theo arrives at Demetrius' doorstep as an invitation to heal old wounds. Though Leander warns Demetrius of possible ulterior motives, Demetrius is entirely consumed by the possibility of mending their brotherly bond. The road to reunion is paved with exhausting physical obstacles and even more debilitating mental trials. Each man is uniquely conflicted by an effort to do what he believes is right while also concealing the truth of what happened on that cursed day over twenty years ago, until revelation becomes inevitable. Never could they have imagined their closest companions and creations becoming their ultimate demise, demolishing what each man spent his whole life building.

The Tower
Author: Carol Ann Ross
Publisher: Bublish, Inc.
ISBN: 1547136278
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
The Tower is the third book in the Murder by the Sea series by Carol Ann Ross. The Tower, an old missile observation structure built in the 1940s, stands staunchly against the ocean-the gales, squalls, and hurricanes that come year in and year out. It seems a fortress of strength and endurance and has become a beloved landmark of Topsail Island. The view from the tower is astounding as it rises above the dunes to rose sunrises, azure seas at twilight, lazy days watching beachgoers and fishermen. Quietly, this tower and the land it rests on offer paradise. But just because the view of life at the beach seems a bit more serene, a bit slower, from the tower, it doesn't mean that the age-old struggles between right and wrong or good and bad don't exist. Sometimes the lines are blurred. Sometimes things are justified. But sometimes the evil is so blatant it can't be ignored. And even the tower can’t rise above it. It seems she just won’t go away. All the detectives want is to have their sleepy little town back. But Estelle has a way about her and even the innocent and trusting are at her mercy.

The Prince & The Apocalypse

Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
An American teen stranded in London is forced to team up with the British crown prince if she wants to make it back home before the end of the world in this delightfully rompy high-stakes rom-com. Wren Wheeler has flown five thousand miles across the ocean to discover she’s the worst kind of traveler: the kind who just wants to go home. Her senior-year trip to London was supposed to be life-changing, but by the last day, Wren’s perfectly-planned itinerary is in tatters. There's only one item left to check off: breakfast at The World’s End restaurant. The one thing she can still get right. The restaurant is closed for renovations—of course—but there's a boy there, too. A very cute boy with a posh British accent who looks remarkably like the errant Prince Theo, on the run from the palace and his controlling mother. When Wren helps him escape a pack of tourists, the Prince scribbles down his number and offers her one favor in return. She doesn’t plan to take him up on it—until she gets to the airport and sees cancelled flights and chaos. A comet is approaching Earth, and the world is ending in eight days. Suddenly, that favor could be her only chance to get home to her family before the end of the world. Wren strikes a bargain with the runaway prince: if she’ll be his bodyguard from London to his family’s compound in Santorini, he can charter her a private jet home in time to say goodbye. Traveling through Europe by boat, train, and accidentally stolen automobile, Wren finds herself drawn to the dryly sarcastic, surprisingly vulnerable Theo. But the Prince has his own agenda, one that could derail both their plans. When life as they know it will be over in days, is it possible to find a happy ending?
