He may be her brother’s best friend, but he has an atrocious sense of humor. Eight years in the cavalry hasn’t taught him solemnity, nor has the unexpected inheritance of a dukedom.But when Oliver inherited his dukedom, it appears that he also inherited a murderer.Oliver might be dreadfully annoying, but Primrose doesn’t want him dead. She’s going to make certain he survives his inheritance—and the only way to do that is to help him catch the murderer!? ? ? ? ?"I read straight through the night. I kept telling myself that I needed to put it down and get some sleep, but it was so interesting and exciting that I just had to see what happened next. Finally, at 7am, I read the last word and thought 'Wow, just wow.'"~ Barbara @ NetGalleyLength: Full-length novel of 85,000 wordsSensuality level: A Regency romance with steamy love scenes *Winner of the 2019 Romance Writers of New Zealand Long Romance of the Year Award**Winner of the 2019 Romance Writers of New Zealand Best Overall Romance of the Year Award*Q & A with the authorHow would you describe this series?It's Regency England with passion, danger, adventure, humor, romance—and a dash of magic. The stories are emotional, but not sweet. There’s sex, and my heroes do swear at times!Hang on. Did you say magic?I did. But don't worry—the books are first and foremost historical romances. Only a few characters have magic, and it’s a deep, dark secret, and no one else knows.But … do magic and Regency England go together?Definitely! Many years ago I read Sorcery and Cecelia (or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot) by Patricia Wrede and Caroline Stevermer, and totally loved it and ever since then I’ve thought that Regency England and magic go very well together.How would you describe your writing?Several reviewers have likened my writing to Georgette Heyer, which is the hugest compliment ever. I adore Georgette Heyer! She’s why I write historical romance, and I reread her books over and over. (If you’ve not read The Grand Sophy, please do so!) I’ve also had readers compare my writing to Courtney Milan and Mary Balogh, which are also massive compliments.What order should I read the series in?Each book, whether a novel or novella, can be read as a standalone, but many readers prefer to read them in order.

The Christmas Wish - Erotic Short Story (EN)
"I feel dizzy and light as a feather. Our hands explore each other's bodies, and all our clothes end up on the floor. When I pull her tank top over her, head, I notice that she is not wearing a bra and her nipples are stiff and erect. I pull myself away from her mouth to taste one of her nipples, and I massage her firm and small breasts as I suck and nibble them carefully.

The Chestermarke Instinct
Excerpt:"Every Monday morning, when the clock of the old parish church in Scarnham Market-Place struck eight, Wallington Neale asked himself why on earth he had chosen to be a bank clerk. On all the other mornings of the week this question never occurred to him: on Sunday he never allowed a thought of the bank to cross his mind: from Sunday to Saturday he was firmly settled in the usual rut, and never dreamed of tearing himself out of it. But Sunday's break was unsettling: there was always an effort in starting afresh on Monday. The striking of St. Alkmund's clock at eight on Monday morning invariably found him sitting down to his breakfast in his rooms, overlooking the quaint old Market-Place, once more faced by the fact that a week of dull, uninteresting work lay before him. He would go to the bank at nine, and at the bank he would remain, more or less, until five. He would do that again on Tuesday, and on Wednesday, and on Thursday and on Friday, and on Saturday. One afternoon, strolling in the adjacent country, he had seen a horse walking round and round and round in a small paddock, turning a crank which worked some machine or other in an adjoining shed: that horse had somehow suggested himself to himself."

Call Of The Wild
HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'Deep in the forest a call was sounding, and ...he felt compelled to turn his back upon the fire, and to plunge into the forest.' Half St. Bernard, half sheepdog, Buck is stolen away from his comfortable life as a pet in California and sold to dog traders. He soon finds himself aboard a ship, on its way to Northern Canada. Surrounded by cruelty, Buck's natural instincts and behaviour begin to emerge as he works as a mail carrying sled dog, scavenging for food, protecting himself against other dogs and sleeping out in the cold snow. Sold to a group of American gold hunters who are inexperienced living in the wilderness, the dogs are treated badly and as misfortune besets them, Buck is saved by John Thornton. Indebted to his new master, Buck remains by Thornton's side, saving him from drowning and protecting him with fierce loyalty throughout their time together. However, Buck can not deny the strong lure of the wilderness around him. Exciting and action-packed, Call of the Wild explores the timeless relationship between man and dog, and the inevitable draw of primitive instincts that pull Buck away from civilization and humanity towards the lawless and harsh wilderness.

Everything But the Girl - Fuse (Deluxe Edition) CD+BD
Po dlhšej prestávke, ktorá trvala viac ako 20 rokov, je najoriginálnejšie popové duo 90. rokov späť, aby znovu získalo svoju slávu na svojom novom albume Fuse. Album, v ktorom Everything But The Girl poskytuje moderný pohľad na lesklú elektronickú dušu, ktorú skupina prvýkrát objavila v polovici 90. rokov, pričom zostala úplne verná klubovo orientovanej trajektórii, ktorú zanechali na svojich kľúčových albumoch Walking Wounded (1996) a Temperamental. (1999), bez toho, aby to znelo čo i len vzdialenejšie. Thornov pôsobivý a bohato štruktúrovaný hlas je opäť raz v popredí vo Wattovej trblietavej krajine subbasov, ostrých beatov, poloosvetlených syntetizátorov a prázdneho priestoru, a ako predtým, výsledkom je zvuk kapely, ktorý je pohodlný a zároveň zvukovo súčasný. , no nestarnúce sami sebou.

Lily's Adventures Behind the Rainbow - Lili kalandjai a szivárványon túl
A szerző korábban megjelent, felnőtteknek szóló könyve, az Angyalokkal Szárnyalók főhőse, Lili gyermekkoráról szól ez a könyv, és az ő ismerkedését az angyalokkal. A nyolcéves Lili minden vágya, hogy kimehessen a játszótérre, de minduntalan akadályokba ütközik. Ezek leküzdésében segítik őt a körülötte lévő angyalok, no meg Szeszi, a szeszélyes kismacskája. Lili története Steiner Anita bájos illusztrációival arra bátorít, hogy bízzunk az ismeretlenben, és élvezzük az álmaink megvalósulásához vezető utat. Minden okkal történik, és sokszor az, amit mi jónak gondolunk, nem feltétlen a legjobb, ami csak történhet velünk. Steiner Anita illusztrációival.
