Karly Winters has waited ten long years to have the man of her dreams, the handsome but duplicitous Jacob Cruthers. From her home in Glasgow she pines for the Londoner who casually keeps her dangling, never with a thought of giving her what she wants and never with any intention of leaving his wife.<\/p>\n

For her part, Karly has no intentions of being second best any longer and she hatches an artful plan of devious intent that she is certain will work in her favour. Now, embarking on her dangerous game of high stakes, she is all too aware that someone is likely to get hurt. But for the winner, the prize will be incalculable.<\/p>\n

But Karly hasn\u2019t reckoned for new and equally underhanded forces that are at work. Lurking in the shadows are others, with their own agendas to follow and equally ruthless in their objectives. With various factions hurtling towards a confrontation that none of them saw coming, someone is going to pay the price of infatuation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

One Old West Cinderella discovers
\nPrince Charming is a . . . Cowboy?
\nThe death of her mother left Philamena Booth grieving and at the mercy of her drunken father. After spending more than a decade held captive on their run-down farm, she\u2019s left speechless and dazed when her father strikes a bargain to settle a long overdue debt. In lieu of payment, a handsome cowboy agrees to take her. Mortified yet relieved to leave the farm, Philamena unexpectedly finds herself married to a charismatic, caring man.<\/p>\n

Luke Granger might own Hardman\u2019s bank and the fanciest house in this Eastern Oregon town, but he\u2019d much rather be outside riding his horses or wrangling his herd of cattle than keeping his account books straight. In a strange, unsettling turn of events, he finds himself accepting a farmer\u2019s daughter instead of money to cover a loan. If the man hadn\u2019t threatened to sell her to the saloon owner, Luke might have refused. He has no idea what to do with beautiful Filly or their marriage of convenience, but he\u2019s about to get far more than he bargained for.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

No metropolis has been more loved or more hated. To its official boosters, \u201cLos Angeles brings it all together.\u201d To detractors, L.A. is a sunlit mortuary where \u201cyou can rot without feeling it.\u201d To Mike Davis, the author of this fiercely elegant and wide- ranging work of social history, Los Angeles is both utopia and dystopia, a place where the last Joshua trees are being plowed under to make room for model communities in the desert, where the rich have hired their own police to fend off street gangs, as well as armed Beirut militias.<\/p>\n

In City of Quartz, Davis reconstructs L.A.\u2019s shadow history and dissects its ethereal economy. He tells us who has the power and how they hold on to it. He gives us a city of Dickensian extremes, Pynchonesque conspiracies, and a desperation straight out of Nathaniel West\u2014a city in which we may glimpse our own future mirrored with terrifying clarity. In this new edition, Davis provides a dazzling update on the city\u2019s current status.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Elizabeth, Mary, and Sophia Peabody were in many ways the American Bront\u00ebs. The story of these remarkable sisters\u2014and their central role in shaping the thinking of their day\u2014has never before been fully told. Twenty years in the making, Megan Marshall\u2019s monumental biography brings the era of creative ferment known as American Romanticism to new life.<\/p>\n

Elizabeth Peabody, the oldest sister, was a mind-on-fire influence on the great writers of the era\u2014Emerson, Hawthorne, and Thoreau among them\u2014who also published some of their earliest works; it was she who prodded these newly minted Transcendentalists away from Emerson\u2019s individualism and toward a greater connection to others. Middle sister Mary Peabody was a passionate reformer who finally found her soul mate in the great educator Horace Mann. And the frail Sophia, an admired painter among the preeminent society artists of the day, married Nathaniel Hawthorne\u2014but not before Hawthorne threw the delicate dynamics among the sisters into disarray.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
