Behind Closed Doors - Kept in Paradise 1


He's the forbidden enigma I wanted to ignore . . . but instead I'll be forced to share a home with him. Jameson Knight arrives at precisely the same time every day to pick up. It's the only time I see him smile. I don't ask questions because it's not my place. I'm just his daughter's favorite teacher, nothing more. . . . Until the first bullet flies by us at recess. Suddenly, I'm risking my life to protect her. And then Jameson drags me back to his estate, claiming it's a matter of life-or-death. Now I'm in the most beautiful home I've ever seen, faced with an offer from a man who's just as gorgeous: Be the temporary live-in nanny until he can ensure my safety and find a more permanent solution. It'll be easy, he promises. Yet, the arrangement is anything but simple. Not when Jameson's hungry stare is all consuming and his touch pulse racing. And definitely not when I find that nothing in this neighborhood is as it seems, including Jameson. He may be powerful, possessive, and protective. But he's also dangerous, demanding, and calculating. As more of his secrets come out, I should run but . . . How do I escape the enigma of Jameson Knight if he's already captured my heart? Welcome to Paradise Grove, a luxurious, ultra-private billionaire enclave - where the stakes are high, and the secrets are buried deep. Perfect for fans of L.J. Shen, Rina Kent and Ana Huang.

Shipped far away until the heat dies, Aurelia finds herself in the one place where her name means nothing. When a blizzard causes her plane to crash, she becomes stranded in the wilds of Northern Canada, a sole survivor with no one to turn to. No one except them. The misanthropic mountain men who’ve shut themselves away. It’s their cabin Aurelia finds in the icy wilderness and their obsession she ignites when they discover her sleeping in one of their beds. Thorin, Khalil, and Ezekiel (and all of his personalities) have only longed for one thing in nine long years...a woman to warm their beds. Surviving a plane crash, wolves, avalanches, frozen lakes, and a harsh winter with three feral men is nothing compared to Aurelia’s hardest trial of all?finding herself.

Lover Girl


A picaresque debut of forbidden desire, in which a young woman escapes NYC to work on her novel in the Hamptons, falling into a downward spiral of lovers and other destructive behaviors. In the closing days of summer, ‘lover girl’ arrives at the sprawling, neglected home of her wealthy friend, Lucas. What to him is an empty house is to her an act of generosity that comes with blurry expectations. The arrival of an ex-boyfriend, Cameron, makes things even more complicated. How can she give both men the things they assume they can take from her? What she calls ‘love’ will take her to the bedrooms of New York City, the decadent parties of upper-class America, and, eventually, to Paris. Lover Girl is a lesson in the schooled indifference and the complicated dynamics of the super-privileged and the meaning of real love as a twenty-first century girl.

Domestic Manners of the Americans


''it appeared to me that the greatest and best feelings of the human heart were paralyzed by the relative positions of slave and owner''In Domestic Manners of the Americans, Frances Trollope recounts her travels through America between 1827 and 1830, describing her voyage up the Mississippi from New Orleans, a two-year stay in Cincinnati, and a subsequent tour of Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York. A transatlantic best-seller on publication in 1832, its forthright criticisms of American manners encompassed spitting, religious extremism, ladies'' dress, the relentless pursuit of money, and the unequal treatment of women, slaves, and Native Americans. Witty, satiric, and hugely entertaining, Trollope also had a serious purpose in warning her compatriots of the consequences of democratic freedoms at a time of great social change in England. Deploring slavery and the hypocrisy that sanctioned it, she fuelled abolitionist debate on both sides of the Atlantic and so impressed Mark Twain that fifty years later he considered her book to be the most accurate portrait of American life in the nineteenth century.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Pomsta až do smrti


Tragická minulosť. Vlak bez jedinej zastávky. Trinásť hodín, počas ktorých vyjde pravda na povrch. V roku 1954 nastúpi Anna Mathesonová do luxusného nočného vlaku smerujúceho do Chicaga. So sebou si nesie zoznam mien a túžbu po pomste. Pred dvanástimi rokmi, uprostred druhej svetovej vojny, šesť ľudí roztrhalo jej rodinný život na kusy. Teraz ich pod falošnou identitou všetkých zhromaždí na jednom mieste – vo vlaku, z ktorého niet úniku. Jej plán je jednoduchý a nemilosrdný. Prinútiť všetkých čeliť minulosti, odhaliť tajomstvá pochované časom a nechať ich zaplatiť za ich činy. Lenže ešte pred svitaním je jeden z cestujúcich zavraždený. A Anna pochopí, že v tomto vlaku nie je jediná, ktorá má tajomstvá... ani jediná, ktorá túži po pomste. Ako sa vlak rúti do ľadovej noci, Anna sa musí presekávať vrstvami klamstiev, zrátať cenu odplaty a zmazať hranicu medzi obeťami a vinníkmi. Napokon musí urobiť nemožné – ochrániť ľudí, ktorých nenávidí. Pretože niekto na palube má jediný cieľ – na konečnú stanicu sa nesmie dostať nikto. Ani ona.
