Review
A vampire/witch Romance You'll Fall Madly In Love With
I've never read before I picked up this book. This book showed me that reading was a very fascinating joy. I fell in love with this book. I also fell in love with the characters Roshan and Brenna. Amanda Ashley is my all-time favorite author. I've been reading like there's no tomorrow, because of all her books. I really recommend this book. And I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

From the Author
I loved this story. I think it's the first time I had a witch for a character (although after 60+ books I could be wrong). Anyway, it was fun to write. I wasn't planning on a sequel when I wrote it - let alone 4 if them - but I was curious to know what happened to the child they adopted....so I wrote Night's Touch....and Night's Master....and Night's Pleasure.....and then, because so many people were curious to know more about Mara (and so was I) I wrote Night's Mistress, and thought I was done. But now I'm not so sure.....

: Passion Has a Darker Side...
Kathy McKenna was sure that the little Midwestern town of Oak Hollow would be isolated enough for safety, but the moment the black-clad stranger walked into her bookstore, she knew she was wrong. Raphael Cordova exudes smouldering power, and his sensual touch dra Kathy into a world of limitless pleasure and unimaginable dangers.
Oak Hollow was supposed to be neutral territory for supernatural beings. Instead it has become home to an evil force determined to destroy them-and kill any mortal who gets in the way. As leader of the North American vampires, Raphael has always put duty first, but then, no women ever enthralled him the way Kathy does. And as the enemy's terrifying plan is revealed, Raphael's desire could be a fatal distraction for all his kind, and for the women he has sworn to love forever.

The First World War in 100 Objects
Type : epub |
Size : 50.11 MB |
English |
: Objects allow us to reach out and touch the past and they play a living role in history today. Through them we can understand the experience of men and women during the First World War. They bear witness to the stories of men whose only morning comfort in the trenches was the run ration, children who grew up with only one photograph of the father that they would never get to know, women who would sacrifice their girlhood in hospital yards from the frontline, pinning a brooch on to remind themselves of a past life. Weapons like the machine gun and vehicles like the tank that transformed the battlefield; planes that had barely learnt to be flown entangled in dogfights far above the barbed wire of the frontline; German submarines that stalked shipping across the seas. Through these incredible artefacts, Peter Doyle tells the story of the First World War in a whole new light.

This Tilting World
Type : epub |
Size : 2.66 MB |
English |
: On the night following the terrorist attack that killed thirty-eight tourists on the beach at Sousse, a woman sits facing the sea and writes a complicated love letter to her homeland, Tunisia, which she feels she must leave forever. She also writes of her personal tragedies-the deaths of her father, a quiet man, and of another lifelong friend, who just weeks ago died at sea, having forsaken the writing that had given his life meaning.
Part of a trilogy on the history of Tunisia's Jewish community, Fellous's story nods to Proust and encompasses a multitude of colorful portraits, sweeping readers onto a lyrical journey from Tunisia to Paris to a Flaubertian village in Normandy, full of the voices of loved ones now silent.
Written with echoes of Roland Barthes's gorgeous fragmentary texts, such as A Lover's Discourse and Camera Lucida, Fellous's creative memoir is at once a political and cultural portrait of a region that has sat at the center of...

: After surviving a clandestine operation that went tragically wrong, Matt Drake escaped Syria with his life, but little else. Now, to save the life of another, he must return to Syria and confront his biggest failure in a debut thriller Lee Child calls "sensationally good."
Defense Intelligence Agency operative Matt Drake broke a promise. A promise that cost three people their lives and crippled his best friend. Three months later, he's paralyzed by survivor's guilt and haunted by the memories of the fallen. Matt may have left Syria, but Syria hasn't left him.
In the midst of his self-imposed exile, Matt is dragged back into the world of espionage and assets that he tried to forget. A Pakistani scientist working for an ISIS splinter cell has created a terrifying weapon of mass destruction. The scientist offers to defect with the weapon, but he trusts just one man to bring him out of Syria alive-Matt Drake. **
Review

Brilliantly crafted and written, this book is a thoroughly riveting read and Don Bentley is an exciting new voice in the thriller world."-Mark Greaney, New York Times bestselling author
<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: 600">
"You can smell the cordite, hear the explosions, and feel the fight in this one. Action jumps from every page thanks to an engaging premise and cross-cutting suspense. Way ahead of the pack."-Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of The Malta Exchange
<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: 600">
"Without Sanction is a relentless, crackling debut about the fight against terrorism, its unacknowledged costs, and the price paid by its operatives. Don Bentley has lived this life, and he writes with deep authenticity, a serious swagger, wry wit, and a lyrical heart. This is one hell of a book."-Nick Petrie, National Bestselling author of Tear It Down<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: 600">
"I am blown away...Without Sanction is top notch"-Sean Parnell, New York Times bestselling author of Outlaw Platoon
"Bentley plumbs the deepest recesses of Syria and the White House, leaving readers unsettled, wondering which arena is in fact more dangerous. Politics and foreign policy collide in a tempest of backstabbing and intrigue. Realistic, gritty, and hard-hitting-Without Sanction is an incendiary debut."-K.J. Howe, International Bestselling Author of The Freedom Broker
Don Bentley is the real deal. Without Sanction is raw, honest, and thought-provoking. . . But most of all, it's one heck of a fun ride. Do not miss this powerful, action-packed debut thriller!"-Ryan Steck, The Real Book Spy
"Without Sanction is one of those rare books that reminds me why I became an author in the first place. Don Bentley has crafted a gut churning, heart pounding thriller. An unflinching dive into the soul of the modern warrior that is so beautifully written and expertly executed that I cannot believe it is a debut novel."-Joshua Hood, Clear by Fire
"Without Sanction is without doubt the best thriller I've read in years. Don Bentley flies his story like an Apache attack helicopter-full throttle and guns blazing. With a plot as unpredictable as a HAHO jump in high winds, the novel drops you in a hot LZ of whip-smart writing, throat-punching action and laugh-out-loud gallo humor. A keen political eye, sharply drawn characters and emotional depth accelerate this pulse-pounding free fall. Strap on your bump helmet and hold on tight. You're in for one helluva ride!-Mike Maden, New York Times bestselling author of Tom Clancy Enemy Contact
"Grabs you from the get-go and never lets up. An absolutely fantastic story."-Marc Cameron, New York Times bestselling author of Tom Clancy Code of Honor

"Without Sanction knocks it out of the park! His hard won wisdom and experience from time downrange grip the reader from the first page to the last. Sign me up for an early read of book two!"-Jack Carr, author of True Believer

: A new, definitive edition of Herman Melville's virtuosic short stories-American classics wrought with scorching fury, grim humor, and profound beauty
Though best-known for his epic masterpiece Moby-Dick,Herman Melville also left a body of short stories arguably unmatched in American fiction. In the sorrowful tragedy of Billy Budd, Sailor; the controlled rage of Benito Cereno; and the tantalizing enigma of Bartleby, the Scrivener; Melville reveals himself as a singular storyteller of tremendous range and compelling power. In these stories, Melville cuts to the heart of race, class, capitalism, and globalism in America, deftly navigating political and social issues that resonate as clearly in our time as they did in Melville's. Also including The Piazza Tales in full, this collection demonstrates why Melville stands not only among the greatest writers of the nineteenth century, but also as one of our...

The Murderous History of Bible Translations Power, Conflict, and the Quest for Meaning
Type : epub |
Size : 2.13 MB |
English |
: In 1535, William Tyndale, the first man to produce an English version of the Bible in print, was captured and imprisoned in Belgium. A year later he was strangled and then burned at the stake. His co-translator was also burned. In that same year the translator of the first Dutch Bible was arrested and beheaded. These were not the first, nor were they the last instances of extreme violence against Bible translators. The Murderous History of Bible Translations tells the remarkable, and bloody, story of those who dared translate the word of God.The Bible has been translated far more than any other book. To our minds it is self-evident that believers can read their sacred literature in a language they understand. But the history of Bible translations is far more contentious than reason would suggest. Bible translations underlie an astonishing number of religious conflicts that have plagued the world...

Debriefing the President The Interrogation of Saddam Hussein
Type : epub |
Size : 575.67 KB |
English |
: In December 2003, after one of the largest, most aggressive manhunts in history, US military forces captured Iraqi president Saddam Hussein near his hometown of Tikrit. Beset by body-double rumors and false alarms during a nine-month search, the Bush administration needed positive identification of the prisoner before it could make the announcement that would rocket around the world.
At the time, John Nixon was a senior CIA leadership analyst who had spent years studying the Iraqi dictator. Called upon to make the official ID, Nixon looked for telltale scars and tribal tattoos and asked Hussein a list of questions only he could answer. The man was indeed Saddam Hussein, but as Nixon learned in the ensuing weeks, both he and America had greatly misunderstood just who Saddam Hussein really was.
Debriefing the President presents an astounding, candid portrait of one of our era's most notorious strongmen. Nixon, the first man to conduct a prolonged interrogation of...
