The Ice Queen
For Caroline Saunders, beauty is a curse. Everywhere she goes, she is surrounded by men who worship her. But Caroline knows none of them could ever love her just for herself.
She treats her court of suitors with cool disdain, gaining herself the title of the Ice Queen.
After an ugly altercation with an insistent suitor, Caroline decides it is time to escape the crowded ballrooms of London.
With a heart scarred by his parent’s disastrous marriage Julian Palmer, Earl Newhall has been in no particular hurry to take on a wife. But men with titles need heirs.
He reluctantly agrees to allow his aunt to arrange a week-long party at his Derbyshire estate. A handpicked group of eligible young women and their chaperones will be in attendance.
When a sudden heavy snowstorm stops all but one carriage from making the journey to Newhall Castle, Julian decides he should make the best of a bad situation.
However, matters turn from bad to worse when he discovers that it is Caroline Saunders who has arrived wet and freezing cold on his doorstep in the middle of the night.
The Ice Queen is the one woman in all of London society he knows he could never be prevailed upon to marry, let alone love.
But when Newhall Castle becomes Caroline’s only place of sanctuary, Julian quickly discovers that beneath her icy demeanor there beats a passionate heart.
Two stubborn souls come together in this beautiful tale of enemies to lovers.

The Loving Husband Series
The four books of the beloved bestselling paranormal historical Loving Husband Series are featured together for the first time. The collection includes the full texts of Her Dear & Loving Husband, Her Loving Husband’s Curse, Her Loving Husband’s Return, and Down Salem Way.
Book One: Her Dear & Loving Husband
How long would you wait for the one you loved?
James Wentworth has a secret. He lives quietly in Salem, Massachusetts, making few ties with anyone. One night his private world is turned upside down when he meets Sarah Alexander, a dead ringer for his wife, Elizabeth. Though it has been years since Elizabeth’s death, James cannot move on.
Sarah also has a secret. She is haunted by nightmares about the Salem Witch Trials, and every night she is awakened by visions of hangings, being arrested, and dying in jail. Despite the obstacles of their secrets, James and Sarah fall in love. As James comes to terms with his feelings for Sarah, he must dodge accusations from a reporter desperate to prove that James is not who, or what, he seems to be. Soon James and Sarah piece their stories together and discover a mystery that may bind them in ways they never imagined. Do vampires and witches live in Salem? Will James make the ultimate sacrifice to protect Sarah and prevent a new hunt from bringing hysteria to Salem again?
Book Two: Her Loving Husband’s Curse
How far will you go to protect the one you love?
Finally, after many long and lonely years, James Wentworth’s life is falling into place. Together with his wife, Sarah, the only woman he has ever loved, he has found the meaning behind her nightmares about the Salem Witch Trials, and now they are rebuilding the life they began together so long ago.
But the past is never far behind for the Wentworths. While Sarah is haunted by new visions, now about the baby she carried over three hundred years before, James is confronted with painful memories from his time with the Cherokee on the Trail of Tears. Through it all, the persistent reporter Kenneth Hempel reappears, still determined to prove that the undead walk the earth. If Hempel succeeds in his quest, James and Sarah will suffer. Will the curse of the vampire prevent James and Sarah from living their happily ever after?
Book Three: Her Loving Husband’s Return
What would you do to return to the only one you have ever loved?
James Wentworth’s secret is no longer a secret, and now he and his beloved wife, Sarah, have been separated. While suffering his own internment, James is reminded of his time with Japanese-Americans in the Manzanar Relocation Camp during World War II, and he cannot allow the past to repeat itself. With the help of his friends—Chandresh, Jocelyn, Timothy, even the irreverent Geoffrey—James learns what it means to return, and he is determined to return to his Sarah no matter the challenges—or the consequences. In the end, it may be up to Olivia, the most powerful of witches, to grant James’s most fervent wish. Will James and Sarah be reunited once and for all despite the madness surrounding them?
The Prequel: Down Salem Way
How would you deal with the madness of the Salem witch hunts?
In 1690, James Wentworth arrives in Salem in the Massachusetts Bay Colony with his father, John, hoping to continue the success of John’s mercantile business. While in Salem, James falls in love with Elizabeth Jones, a farmer’s daughter. Though they are virtually strangers when they marry, the love between James and Elizabeth grows quickly into a passion that will transcend time.
But something evil lurks down Salem way. Soon many in Salem, town and village, are accused of practicing witchcraft and sending their shapes to harm others. Despite the madness surrounding them, James and Elizabeth are determined to continue the peaceful, loving life they have created together. Will their love for one another carry them through the most difficult challenge of all?

Erbovní mapa hradů, zámků a tvrzí v Čechách 3
Třetí díl "Erbovní mapy" pokrývá území severovýchodně od Kolína a Poděbrad na rozhraní středních a východních Čech. Na východě jsou šlechtická sídla graficky zmapována až k Pardubicím a Hradci Králové, na severu se podíváme do okolí Jičína, Sobotky a Nové Paky. Mapa graficky zobrazuje dosud stojící zámky, hrady a tvrze této oblasti. Sídla, která se nedochovala, jsou většinou zaznamenána pouze příslušnou značkou. Významnější z nich jsou zakreslena nikoliv jako zříceniny, ale v ideální podobě z časů jejich zašlé slávy. Jednotliví stavebníci z řad šlechty či církevních a světských organizací jsou zde představeni pomocí svých erbů. Další zobrazené erby patří rodům žijícím na tomto území dlouhodoběji, z nichž některé se po svém sídle jmenují, nebo jeho jméno mají ve svém přídomku. Erbovní mapa, jejíž jednotlivé díly budou postupně vycházet, je pokusem zachytit z trochu jiného pohledu to nesmírné bohatství hradů, zámků a tvrzí, které v Čechách stály, rozpadávají se a z nichž ty šťastnější dosud stojí.
Lacná kniha Havran - Odinovi vlci
Vikingové putují za slávou
Autor pokračuje ve vyprávění příběhu záhadného chlapce Osrika, který se dostal do
světa pohanských Norů a jako Havran Krvavé oko se stal jedním z nich. Bojovníci se vydávají na dlouhou plavbu do Miklagardu, jak tehdy na severu nazývali Cařihrad, do země, v níž lze najít obojí: slávu i bohatství. Plavba je ale zavádí do neznámých a nebezpečných vod i zemí. Norové však budou muset za svou touhu po slávě zaplatit vysokou cenu, neboť i když se zdá, že ulice Miklagardu jsou vydlážděné zlatem, teče jimi také krev…

1964: Eyes of the Storm
Photographs and Reflections by Paul McCartney
'Millions of eyes were suddenly upon us, creating a picture I will never forget for the rest of my life.'
In 2020, an extraordinary trove of nearly a thousand photographs taken by Paul McCartney on a 35mm camera was re-discovered in his archive. They intimately record the months towards the end of 1963 and beginning of 1964 when Beatlemania erupted in the UK and, after the band's first visit to the USA, they became the most famous people on the planet. The photographs are McCartney's personal record of this explosive time, when he was, as he puts it, in the 'Eyes of the Storm'.
1964: Eyes of the Storm presents 275 of McCartney's photographs from the six cities of these intense, legendary months - Liverpool, London, Paris, New York, Washington, D.C. and Miami - and many never-before-seen portraits of John, George and Ringo. In his Foreword and Introductions to these city portfolios, McCartney remembers 'what else can you call it - pandemonium' and conveys his impressions of Britain and America in 1964 - the moment when the culture changed and the Sixties really began.
1964: Eyes of the Storm includes:
- Six city portfolios - Liverpool, London, Paris, New York, Washington, D.C. and Miami - and a Coda on the later months of 1964 - featuring 275 of Paul McCartney's photographs and his candid reflections on them
- A Foreword by Paul McCartney
- Beatleland, an Introduction by Harvard historian and New Yorker essayist Jill Lepore
- A Preface by Nicholas Cullinan, Director of the National Portrait Gallery, London, and Another Lens, an essay by Senior Curator Rosie Broadley
Povídky, sodoma, mazal
Mé jméno je Petrus Trottestam a má kolébka z jalovce stála před téměř padesáti lety někde na dalekém severu, v zemi půlnočního slunce. Ale toto je pouze biografi cká poznámka. Z biologického hlediska jsem se narodil Denquinesh, matce nás všech, někde v habešském libosadě; z metafyzického hlediska pocházím z ostrova Itaky, a jakožto vyhnanec do skutečnosti věčně hledám svou cestu zpět. Věčně poletuji mezi těmito póly, buď na hřbetě dřevěného koníka mého dětského kraje nebo na svém Pegási básnictví nebo na Suvielovi, oři gonderského císaře. Tady máte mé povídky v češtině - přijemné čtení vám přeji! Měl jsem tu velikou přízeň, že mé povídky s láskou ilustroval Petr Kubes, nezdolny herec Moravského divadla a můj nepostradatelny zbrojník na literárních vypravách. Mimořádny dík ještě posílám svym věrnym redigovatelům Petru Homolákovi, Pavle Netušilové, Hance Švecové, Tomáši Egerovi a Markétě Pěluchové. Samotné dílo je věnováno mym milovanym dětem, ale také jeho vydání patří památce mého vyborného spolupoutníka Petra Homoláka, ktery nás musel opustit příliš příliš brzo.
The Perfect Golden Circle
England, 1989. Over the course of a burning hot summer, two very different men - traumatized Falklands veteran Calvert, and affable, chaotic Redbone - set out nightly in a clapped-out camper van to undertake an extraordinary project.
Under cover of darkness, the two men traverse the fields of rural England in secret, forming crop circles in elaborate and mysterious patterns. As the summer wears on, and their designs grow ever more ambitious, the two men find that their work has become a cult international sensation - and that an unlikely and beautiful friendship has taken root as the wheat ripens from green to gold.
The Bullet that Missed
It is an ordinary Thursday and things should finally be returning to normal.
Except trouble is never far away where the Thursday Murder Club is concerned. A decade-old cold case leads them to a local news legend and a murder with no body and no answers.
Then, a new foe pays Elizabeth a visit. Her mission? Kill . . . or be killed.
As the cold case turns white hot, Elizabeth wrestles with her conscience (and a gun), while Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim chase down clues with help from old friends and new. But can the gang solve the mystery and save Elizabeth before the murderer strikes again?
