Download or read book Forbidden Love in St. Petersburg written by Mishka Ben-David and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2016-05-17 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Convincing tradecraft, coupled with a plausible look at the inner life of a spy with a license to kill, will remind readers of the best of John le Carré.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) Yogev Ben-Ari has been sent to St. Petersburg by the Mossad, ostensibly to network and set up business connections. His life is solitary, ordered, and lonely—until he meets Anna. Neither is quite what they seem to be, but while her identity may be mysterious, there is no doubt about the love they feel for each other. But the impassioned affair is not part of the Mossad plan. The agency must hatch a dark scheme to drive the lovers apart. Soon what began as a quiet, solitary mission becomes a perilous exercise in survival, and Ben-Ari has no time to discover the truth about Anna’s identity before his employers act . . . “The novel has a solid sense of intrigue and suspense, and its depiction of the world of international espionage feels accurate (as it should, since the author is a former Mossad agent). The characterizations are precise, too: these aren’t stick figures in a spy story but real people in a real environment. A nice blend of classic spy-novel conventions with a thoroughly contemporary setting.” —Booklist (starred review)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wont be the last woman who found true love and her soul mate in the arms of a Forbidden Fruit that belonged to another. I wont be the last woman to endure the heart and head struggle with right and wrong, for love and desire. I wont be the last woman to surrender her heart, her soul and her body to a man, only to have it taken by him and then discarded. Nor will I be the last woman who endures the hurt, the pain and the loss at losing the love of her life and her soul mate and in such an insensitive and cowardly manner. He wont be the last man who found himself loving two women at once. Nor will he be the last man to succumb to temptation and desire in the arms of another woman, having to eventually decide on one, knowing full well that the discarded one will be ultimately hurt. This book of poetry is dedicated to the only man I have ever really loved; to the man who used to call me Gorgeous; to the man who told me I was amazing and too intelligent for him. This book is for the man who picked me up from the depths of despair after a horrible and emotionally abusive marriage; who showed me that there is nothing that I cant do if I want to bad enough and; most importantly; to the man who showed me how to love him unconditionally and then; chose to severe me from his life with a text message, despite promising that he never would. All of these poems have been written from my heart for him and him alone. This book of poetry is for you, My Love, My Soul Mate, My Eros, and My Adonis, all rolled into one.

Book excerpt: Two thousand years ago, Eros met Psyche. Against terrible odds, romance bloomed, and their love became legend. Two thousand years later, they've yet to find their happy ending. When it looked like Aphrodite would lose her son, she placed a curse on Psyche. To break it, Psyche must make it through three tasks. If she doesn’t, she dies before her twenty-fifth birthday and is forced to reincarnate years later. In each lifetime, Eros finds Psyche, but he never keeps her for long. Fearful his love’s spirit will spend eternity without rest, Eros starts to lose hope. Just when he reaches his breaking point, he discovers that he can end the curse. To beat his mother, the unthinkable must happen. Eros must become mortal. As he discovers this, a new cycle of his mother’s curse begins. This time not only does Eros have to deal with his waning godhood, but he must also compete with another for Psyche’s love. Making it worse, Psyche can’t discover Eros’ identity before he’s mortal, or she’ll suffer a fate worse than Tartarus could devise. One way or another, in fourteen days, Aphrodite will lose. Can Eros hold onto his sanity while he does what no god has done before him? Can he keep Psyche safe while also stealing her heart? Will they find eternal happiness, or will they be torn apart for good?
