![]() ![]() ![]() The crew has been promised the ransom Nathaniel will bring, yet as danger mounts and the time nears to give him up, Hawk's biggest battle could be with his own heart. As a pirate's prisoner, he is finally free to be his true self. Dana reviews Kidnapped by the Pirate by Keira Andrews (Published by KA Books, October 26, 2017, 259 pages) A copy was provided in exchange for an honest review. Nathaniel realizes the fearsome Sea Hawk's reputation is largely invented, and he sees the lonely man beneath the myth, willingly surrendering to his captor body and soul. It's not as though Hawk would ever feel anything for him besides lust. Although Hawk knows he must keep his distance, the desire to teach Nathaniel the pleasure men can share grows uncontrollable. Yet as days pass in close quarters, Nathaniel's feisty spirit and alluring innocence beguile and bewitch. He has a score to settle with Nathaniel's father - the very man whose treachery forced him into piracy - and he's sure Nathaniel is just as contemptible. Then pirates strike and he's kidnapped for ransom by the Sea Hawk, a legendary villain of the New World.īitter and jaded, Hawk harbors futile dreams of leaving the sea for a quiet life, but men like him don't deserve peace. Under the thumb of his controlling father, the governor of Primrose Isle, he's sailing to the fledging colony, where he'll surrender to a respectable marriage for his family's financial gain. Nathaniel Bainbridge is used to hiding, whether it's concealing his struggles with reading or his forbidden desire for men. Will a virgin captive surrender to this pirate's sinful touch? ![]()

![]() ![]() There is a library 'Withdrawn' stamp to the top edge of the page block. Boards clean but there are some tape residue marks from where the dustwrapper had been taped. The boards are very thin, but there are no creases or bumps. ***Very good in olive green cloth-covered boards with gilt titles on a paper label to the spine. ![]() ***Please note also that this is an ex-library copy. This printing also has a barcode on the back panel. First edition, later printing - published in German as "Das Parfum: Die Geschichte eines Morders" by Diogenes Verlag AG in Zurich in 1985, but probably a later printing as there is a review of "Die Taube" on the front flap of the dustwrapper which was only published in 1987. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() She asked if I’d be interested in trying out for it, and of course I said yes! Penguin gave us a short list of people to write a proposal for, and I chose Bruce Lee. My agent at the time spotted a call on Twitter from an editor with Penguin Workshop’s Who HQ series for authors to write graphic format biographies. How did you come to write this story about the exiled Dalai Lama? Here is my interview with Teresa and her exciting new book. A perfect addition to a multicultural library. The book provides a summary of Tibet’s ongoing fight for freedom and autonomy. Tibet’s “Precious Protector’s” harrowing escape is easy to read and understand thanks to the graphic format and the periodic history and cultural lessons sprinkled throughout the story. This graphic novel tells the important historical account of the leader of TIBET, THE 14 TH Dalai Lama, who was forced into exile in 1959 by the People’s Liberation Army of China. WHO IS TIBET’S EXILED LEADER: The 14th Dalai Lama is a slight departure from Teresa’s previous picture books since it is a graphic novel that tells the story of Tibet’s exiled leader the 14th Dalai Lama. ![]() Today it is my great pleasure to feature the latest book from award-winning author TERESA ROBESON. ![]() ![]() ![]() Most of the browsers support the use of Cookies. ![]() Cookies will store details of the website's browsing behaviour and what is frequently chosen by you and your browser.

![]() ![]() And despite the busybody old women who used to pop up whenever I was having a bad day and tell me I would miss these days when they were over, I don’t miss those days at all. ![]() ![]() It genuinely never occurred to me when they were little that this would ever end – an eternity of Teletubbies and Duplo and In The Night Bastarding Garden and screaming, never an end in sight. I just wanted them to stop wittering at me, eat vegetables without complaining, let me go to the loo in peace and learn to make a decent gin and tonic. No.1 bestselling author Gill Sims is back with her eagerly awaited fourth and final Why Mummy novel. ![]() ![]() ![]() Brutus’s participation both lends moral authority to the act and will help get others to take part. ![]() However, even in the opening acts much of the story revolves around Brutus, because Cassius knows Brutus must be on-board because he’s both popular and respected. Unlike Brutus, Cassius mostly wants Caesar dead because of jealousy over the dictator’s power and popularity. In the first half of the play, the conspirators are assembled and the conspiracy planned - with Cassius leading the charge. The lead is Brutus, the one member of the cabal of executioners that kill Julius Caesar who does so because he truly believes that Caesar has too much power and that the Roman leader’s ambition will result in yet more power flowing to him at the expense of Romans. As with Shakespeare’s “Cymbeline,” the titular character isn’t the play’s main character – but is the most “bankable” name. ![]() ![]() Hurtling us into a realm of labyrinthine intrigue and consummate seduction, FEVERBORN is a riveting tale of ancient evil, lust, betrayal, forgiveness and the redemptive power of love.
