Book excerpt: She needs a champion. He needs one less person to worry about. Selena Lockhart comes with neither dowry nor connections, and she knows better than to expect Society to give her a welcome—especially after her father gambled away his fortune, precipitating the family’s sudden fall from grace and Selena’s betrothed to break off their engagement. It therefore comes as no surprise that her new neighbor, Sir Lucius, treats her with disdain. Why should he look beyond appearances when her own promises so little? Sir Lucius Clavering is not married, but he may as well be, considering he is expected to escort his widowed mother to watering holes, round out the numbers at his married sister’s dinners, and come to the aid of his scapegrace younger siblings. It doesn’t help that single women and matchmaking mamas jostle each other to claim his face, fortune, and title so that he’s left without a moment’s peace. When Selena shows up at Lucius’s doorstep looking for help, he is sure it’s another ploy aimed at cutting up his prized bachelor existence. Although his prejudice does not last long, Lucius fears his first reaction might have ruined his chances with her. How can he save her from Society’s teeth when she continues to hold him at arm’s length?

Download or read book Insufficient Evidence written by Susan Kraus and published by Flint Hills Publishing. This book was released on 2018-09-23 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At her very first fraternity party, college freshman Hannah is thrilled with the attentions of Logan, a good-looking senior. They talk and flirt. And then it all goes very wrong. Across town, Shelby, a junior, wakes up naked after a date, with no memory of what happened. Therapist Grace McDonald works with both Hannah and Shelby as they try to process their experiences and seek justice. Grace struggles to fully understand college hookup culture and its impact on personal accountability and the legal system. When her drive for truth collides with professional ethics, she goes just a little bit rogue. Insufficient Evidence draws readers into a reality where one word-"Consensual"-or the disclaimer-"It was just a hookup"-undermine all traditional forms of evidence. It's a page-turning psychological thriller, but even more compelling are the relationships that test the limits of friendship, family, loyalty, and revenge. Author Susan Kraus tackles polarizing social and political issues and makes them personal. Her writing reflects decades of experience as a therapist and mediator and her commitment to hands-on research: fiction meticulously grounded in fact.

Download or read book My Fall from Grace written by James J. Laski and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul A. Lavallee is a romantic when writing or talking about small town New England. He is an occasional contributor to a weekly newspaper publication, writing on local issues as well as timely articles of interest. He was born and still lives in the heart of the Blackstone River Valley, where America's industrial revolution began. A Marine veteran of the Korean War, Mr. Lavallee's recollection of growing up in a small mill town during the war years of the 1940's, along with his later experiences at Parris Island, and then in war-ravaged Korea in the 1950's, all tended to inspire him to write his first novel, Rattle of the Looms. That novel was and still is so well received that a sequel seemed imperative. Thus comes the revisiting of the old mill town, Northcross, along with the eeriness of Emery Sibley's mansion, the few vaguely familiar faces over at Felix Morrell's bar, as well as the folks who happen to be still around town in 1982, twenty-eight years after the close of the original novel that ended in 1954.
