Book Description
Paisley: I’m a celebrity photographer, so it’s my job to stalk famous people. I didn’t mean to follow the gorgeous MMA fighter into the men’s locker room, but the opportunity was just too good to pass up. Soon, Talon’s doing something naughty in the shower … that ends in a satisfying money shot! Talon: She’s paparazzi. No matter what Paisley says, she’s a member of a blood-thirsty pack out to make a buck off my image no matter the consequences. So when she follows me into the men’s locker room, I make sure to give her a show to end all shows. But what the curvy girl doesn’t realize is that I’ve been on to her from the beginning, and there will be a price to pay. After all, money shots pack a punch … and with my twin brother Torment, we’ll be giving her shot after shot until she’s got a baby in her belly! Holy smokes, are the twins serious? Talon and Torment are professional athletes accustomed to fighting dirty, but what they’re not used to are sassy, feisty women with a mind of their own! The identical twins are in for a treat though, because Paisley is the girl of their dreams with her lush curves and naughty smile. Buckle up for the ride, and be sure to put the fan on HIGH. This is a follow up to Filthy Twin Mechanics, but all of my books are standalones and do not need to be read in order. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and always a HEA for my readers.

Book Description
"Do you think you have a choice, Maya?" Max sneered, raising an eyebrow. "You're nothing but a slave. And what do slaves do?" His grip tightened painfully, forcing a sharp hiss from my lips. Tears blurred my vision as I whispered, "They... obey." As the daughter of the Alpha’s Mistress, Maya was always an outcast, scorned by the pack and tormented by her step-brothers. Maximus and Leonardo Sterling—the infamous Sterling Twins—were future Alphas of the Blackthorn Pack, and they had one goal: to make Maya's life unbearable. Their perfect opportunity came on her eighteenth birthday, when fate delivered a cruel twist—they were her destined mates. That night, they shattered her innocence, marking her against her will, all to exact revenge for the sins of her mother. The Sterling Twins were masters of cruelty, and their thirst for vengeance knew no bounds... But what happens when Maya becomes pregnant by the very brothers who tormented her and chooses to flee? Years later, the twin Alphas are on the hunt once again—this time, not just for her, but for their son, whom they now want as the heir to their pack. (Book 1 of the series : 1-43)

Book Description
Though much has been written about twins, very little research has been done into their everyday lives, both postnatal and prenatal. In this fascinating new study Alessandra Piontelli follows the development and behaviour of thirty pairs of twins from their early life in the womb through to their third year of childhood. Drawing on detailed ultrasound observations and work with mothers and families in clinical and natural settings, the text traces the subtle ways in which various types of twins live, behave and interact with their unequally shared and unique pre- and postnatal environments. Piontelli shows how from early on distinctive and personal traits can be seen in the behaviour of each member of a twin couple and how these traits continue and strengthen well beyond birth. The book describes not only the behaviour of the twins, but the impact they have on the lives of their family and carers - what family members say, how they react and how the family changes. Scientifically based, but warmly human in content, this unique longitudinal study offers new insight for professionals working with mothers and families of twins and for researchers in human development across a range of disciplines.

Book Description
Ogle Gowan - the Irish upstart who turned Ontario Orange - was a self-seeking, treacherous scoundrel who brought his tattered reputation to the raw frontier of Upper Canada, and built the powerful Protestant machine that shaped Canadian history for more than one hundred years. Ogle Gowan was a bastard, a bigot and a brawler, yet his silver-tongued oratory and ruthless political skills made him more than a match for his enemies. Whether crossing swords with the fiery William Lyon Mackenzie or pub-crawling with the young John A. Macdonald he remained, always, slightly larger than life. Don Akenson draws on his talents as both an historian and a novelist to bring the brutal politics of nineteenth-century Ireland and Canada to unforgettable life. In The Orangeman he gives us an extraordinary portrait of a political parvenu whose behaviour was a scandal in his own time, and who left an indelible mark on Canadian history.

Book Description
In the kingdom of Kaloon, nothing is quite as it seems.... "Y-y-y-you," he stammered, and Flissa turned to see he'd gone ashen. "T-t-t-two of you!" Uh-oh. Flissa reached up and checked. Sure enough, her hood had fallen off. Their secret was out. Princesses Flissa and Sara are even closer than most twins. In fact, most of the kingdom thinks they're the same person. When magic was outlawed in Kaloon generations ago, twins, black cats, and other potentially -magical beings were outlawed, too. Since they were born, Flissa and Sara have pretended to be one princess, Flissara, trading off royal duties like attending glamorous balls, participating in fencing exhibitions, and making friends with other young nobles, all while hiding in plain sight. But when the first magical attack in years puts their mother's life in danger, the girls must break the rules that have protected them to save her. With a brave servant boy and his plucky black kitten as their guides, they set off on an epic quest to the Twists—a forbidden place full of dark magic—to find the evil mage who cursed the queen. With a case of mistaken identity, a wickedly powerful exile out for vengeance, and time running out for their mother, the twins might just need to make their own magic to save the day. In the first book of this new series, author Elise Allen brings to life a fantastical world filled with high-stakes adventure, incredible twists, and all the spark and humor of sisterhood.

(Screen Reader Supported with Enhanced Typesetting) _______________ Recommendation: Your poetry is deeply touching to me. I especially honed in on your thoughts in 'To Be, Or Not!', 'Timeless Treasure!', and 'Awakening!' - Judy Wilde, M.A., Clinical Psychology I am so impressed with your poetry book! I can't pick out which is my favorite poem. I read it again putting more emphasis on the cadence of the words, which was like a dance. Each time I read it it meant more. You have an extraordinary way of writing that gives the reader wonderful visual imagery! - Kay in Arizona
