Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Nick McLeod embraces the life of a rock star with enthusiasm-reveling in drugs, women, crazy escapades, and adulation. Among the groupies who rush backstage after his shows, he occasionally glimpses a woman with blond hair and amethyst-colored eyes. Yet every time he turns to look at her, she vanishes. Then one night as he begins his performance, fueled by cocaine and alcohol, she appears next to him on stage, shaking her head sadly just before he passes out. The near overdose lands him in rehab, and now he is rethinking his priorities. Home, family, and a life with his son are tops on that list. When the offer comes to host a reality show to find a 'star,' he takes it. Meanwhile, the mysterious woman, Ambriel-who goes by Brie-realizes that although she has been appointed as Nick's guardian angel, she is becoming more and more attracted to him, making Nick a challenging assignment in more ways than one. She even enters the contest on the reality show so that she can stay close to him and look after him, and he is drawn to her in spite of himself. Falling in love with a contestant is against the rules-and so is falling in love with the human you're supposed to be taking care of. With one foot in the intense human world of show business and the other in the supernatural world, Nick and Brie's romance might prove too complicated to survive. Can they overcome the obstacles of both worlds.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The year was 1849. The wagon train moved slowly along the parched Oregon Trail in the empty desolation that was to become known as southern Wyoming. Martha Bradford was told she must discard either her cast-iron cook stove or her pianola to lighten the burden for the oxen. She has them both unloaded and then refuses to go on any further:'She declared that if the only things that made her life worth livingwere being left behind, they'd just as well leave both the stove andthe pianola, and her with them.'This novel is based on the next six generations of her family and the first ranch settled in that part of the country. Here are real cowboys and cowgirls, Indians of the past and present, a faith-challenged evangelist, a militant suffragette, newspaper owner, and many others, linked together by their hard work, rowdy pleasures, their spiritual beliefs or non-beliefs, and stitched into a panoramic story-quilt representing the dream of the Morning Star and its hopeful annunciation of a new day rising in the Old West.…
