Which, to be fair, makes sense since hellcats and hellhounds aren't exactly a match made in heaven. Unfortunately, their demons' antipathy towards each other is matched only by the scorching sexual tension between Tanner and Devon. It's driving them - and their long-suffering friends Harper and Knox - mad.When Devon is nearly kidnapped, Tanner's protective instincts kick into overdrive: he's sticking by her side, day and night. But staying so close means their hunger can no longer be denied . . . They know their demons won't accept the match, but after one red-hot night they'll fight to stay together as long as they can, even though shadows gather around them. Devon's would-be kidnapper is still on the loose, a serial killer carrying rage from a twisted past threatens the lair and, most of all, Tanner and Devon are losing themselves to the heat between them. When this relationship goes up in flames, it could be a blaze that neither of them can walk away from . . .'Sarcastic banter, a sexy alpha demon, intense, passionate romance . . .

To bring the shattered worlds together in the spirit of peace, unity and understanding, the Metagalactic Grand Prix was created.

Instead found glitter, lipstick and electric guitars. Mankind will not get to fight for its destiny - instead, they must sing, and Decibel Jones and the Absolute Zeroes have been chosen to represent humanity on the greatest stage in the galaxy.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - On the island of Kekon, the Kaul family is locked in a violent feud for control of the capital city and the supply of magical jade that endows trained Green Bone warriors with supernatural powers they alone have possessed for hundreds of years. Beyond Kekon's borders, war is brewing. Powerful foreign governments and mercenary criminal kingpins alike turn their eyes on the island nation. Jade, Kekon's most prized resource, could make them rich - or give them the edge they'd need to topple their rivals. Faced with threats on all sides, the Kaul family is forced to form new and dangerous alliances, confront enemies in the darkest streets and the tallest office towers, and put honor aside in order to do whatever it takes to ensure their own survival - and that of all the Green Bones of Kekon. Jade War is the second book of the Green Bone Saga, an epic trilogy about family, honour and those who live and die by the ancient laws of blood and jade. 587 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Fascinating and empowering: as a woman working on the land, Brown writes powerfully about the feminist emancipation she experiences . . . But the woman Brown gets to know best in this multi-textured memoir is herself, as she encourages us to find ourselves, in all weathers, in the open air' BBC CountryfileAt the age of twenty-six, Whitney Brown met a dry-stone waller. Within weeks she was out on the hill with him in Wales, learning the language of dry-stone walling. Far away from the pressures of her old life, she found deep satisfaction in working with her hands, in the age and heft of the stones, and the ring of the hammer.Out under the open sky, Whitney relished every sore muscle and smashed finger, every opportunity to stand atop a wall she'd just built and feel like the strongest woman alive. Between Stone and Sky is a celebration of the raw and rugged splendour of the Welsh countryside and the enduring beauty and relevance of traditional craftsmanship. It is an unflinchingly honest account of the emotional struggle to become and belong. Most of all, it is an empowering story of female friendship, accepting uncertainty and risk, and crossing oceans in pursuit of dreams. 'A spirited defence of manual labour' Times Literary Supplement 336 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'A funny, touching account of Joanna Moorhead's unexpected friendship with the wildly imaginative painter and writer who happened to be her long-lost cousin . . . She is lucky to have found such a memorialist' Peter Conrad, ObesrverLeonora Carrington was the last surviving member of the Surrealist movement of the 1930s. A prodigious painter and writer, lover of Max Ernst, friend of Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dali, Marcel Duchamp, Joan Miro, Lee Miller, Peggy Guggenheim and many more, she eventually fled war-torn Europe to become part of the art scene in New York; and from there journeyed to Mexico where she befriended Frida Kahlo and eventually became a Mexican national treasure. But during Joanna Moorhead's childhood all she knew was that there had been a wild child cousin called Prim who had fled the Lancashire family. This book is the story of Leonora Carrington's life, and of the friendship between two women. And it's about surrealism as Leonora lived it: a way of approaching the world and a way of working out, if not the answers, then at least some of the questions.'A charming and at times inspirational book' Literary Review'An intimate portrait of this wild child of surrealism' Tate etc.
