Book excerpt: A vulnerable moment breaks down barriers, turning enemies into allies... and maybe even something more. Margaret Hale is broken with grief. Still mourning her mother's death, she is also weighed down by fear for her brother Frederick, who is living in exile, and her father's unstable health. But topping all her concerns is handsome mill owner John Thornton, whose rash marriage proposal she had rejected before even considering. Not that there is any point in thinking of him now. He wouldn't have anything to do with her, even if she were the last woman in the world. John Thornton is a man of heavy responsibilities who has many things on his mind. His business has suffered one setback after another, and everyone is counting on him to make things right. But the most troublesome of all his problems is Margaret Hale. She wants nothing to do with him, and he wishes he could feel the same. But a chance encounter when he is most in need of a friend might just shatter the misunderstandings that have kept them apart. Is something so simple as friendship even possible after all that has passed between them? When John is offered a chance to save his mill, at the cost of his growing friendship with Margaret, will he act according to duty? Or will he take a chance on love?

Download or read book June Rain written by Jabbour Douaihy and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-07-03 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 16 June 1957, a shoot-out in a village church in northern Lebanon leaves two dozen people dead. In the aftermath of the massacre, the town is rent in two: the Al-Ramis in the north and their rivals the Al-Samaeenis in the south. But lives once so closely intertwined cannot easily be divided. Neighbours turn into enemies and husbands and wives are forced to choose between loyalty to each other and loyalty to their clan. Drawing on an actual killing that took place in his home town, Douaihy reconstructs that June day from the viewpoints of people who witnessed the killing or whose lives were forever altered by it. A young girl overhears her father lending his gun to his cousins, but refusing to accompany them to the church. A school boy walks past the dead bodies, laid out in the town square on beds brought out from the houses. A baker whose shop is trapped on the wrong side of the line hopes the women who buy his bread will protect him. At the center of the portrait is Eliyya, who, twenty years after emigrating to the US, returns to the village to learn about the father who was shot through the heart in the massacre, the father he never knew. With a masterful eye for detail, Douaihy reconstructs that fateful June Sunday when rain poured from the sky and the traditions and affections of village life were consumed by violence and revenge.
