Soren is young, seductive and lacking the type of discipline that doesn't leave bruises. Hiding Soren Buchanan should be easy money, but not for Mason. Then a job comes Mason's way, one that will turn his life upside down: hide Soren Buchanan. Despite his lack of companionship, Mason believes he is living the life he's always wanted. Mason Ward, former US Army Ranger and security specialist, lives a quiet life on a house boat docked off the island of Guam. Beaten and bruised for his defiance, Soren flees to the FBI for help. Unwilling to be a pawn in his father's game, Soren decides to stop seeing Jolina even if it means having to suffer through one of his father's vicious beatings. But Jolina has connections that would make James Buchanan more powerful than he already is. Soren Buchanan no longer wishes to work for his father, crime boss James Buchanan, nor does he want to continue his relationship with the dangerous and sexy Jolina Miciano.

In Doreen’s latest book, Diary of a Worm, she explores the daily life of a lovable worm. She then teamed up once again with illustrator Betsy Lewin to write another hilarious barnyard tale, Giggle, Giggle, Quack, that continues the escapades of these lovable animals on a farm. The busy life of a writer left no room for courtroom litigation and arbitration so Doreen made the leap to being a full-time children’s book author. Five years after submitting the original manuscript she got a call from a publisher who wanted to turn her story into a book and the rest is history! In fact, she had written this barnyard tale even before attending law school but only received rejection letters from publishers. But her book was not published overnight. Doreen Cronin was a practicing attorney in Manhattan when her first book Click, Clack Moo: Cows That Type became a publishing success. The dybbuk's voice will shock some readers he speaks in embittered, Yiddish-inflected English that drives home his point. He wants to track down the infamous SS colonel who not only killed him but also tortured children, including his sister, and before long, the dybbuk co-opts Freddie's act and his interviews to spread the word about the SS colonel. But Avrom Amos has his own agenda, as Freddie knows. The dybbuk makes good on his promise, and Freddie's act becomes the toast of Paris. Avrom Amos is a dybbuk, a wandering soul or ghost, and, by demonstrating how he might speak for Freddie's wooden dummy, Avrom Amos convinces Freddie to let him lodge within Freddie. And then Avrom Amos Poliakov shows up rather, takes over. The "Great Freddie" is a decorated GI, an orphan who has stayed in Europe and, by 1948, has found a toehold as a ventriloquist. Traveling into territory more commonly associated with Isaac Bashevis Singer, Newbery Medalist Fleischman (The Whipping Boy) draws attention to the especially cruel treatment of Jewish children during the Holocaust. Eamon proves to be Sarina's dream client, someone who instinctively trusts every one of her choices-and Sarina is reminded of all the reasons she was first drawn to him back in the day. But with Noah on a temporary assignment abroad and retired Olympic swimmer-and former flame-Eamon Roy back in town asking her to renovate his new fixer-upper, Sarina's life takes an unexpected turn. She's well on her way to having the family she's hoped for since her mother's death ten years ago. Sarina Mahler thinks she has her life all nailed down: a growing architecture practice in Austin, Texas, and an any-day-now proposal from her loving boyfriend, Noah. This utterly enjoyable romance will have readers swooning, sobbing, and eagerly anticipating Chase's next book."įirst, here's the blurb about the book (courtesy of Ballantine Books): Kirkus Reviews says, this "sparkling debut packs serious emotional punches. HEA shares an excerpt from Bethany Chase's debut women's fiction book, The One That Got Away. I try to see leaves on the trees and the courtyard filled with sunlight. I tell myself that all the rain we have had lately is good for nature, and that at any moment spring will surge on us. Beyond the moat, the boggy ploughed fields stretch to the leaden sky. Beyond the dank garden in the courtyard are the ruined walls on the edge of the moat. The view through the windows above the sink is excessively drear. I have decided my best poetry is so bad that I mustn't write any more of it.ĭrips from the roof are plopping into the water-butt by the back door. And I have found that sitting in a place where you have never sat before can be inspiring - I wrote my very best poem while sitting on the hen-house. I can't say that I am really comfortable, and there is a depressing smell of carbolic soap, but this is the only part of the kitchen where there is any daylight left. That is, my feet are in it the rest of me is on the draining-board, which I have padded with our dog's blanket and the tea-cosy. “I write this sitting in the kitchen sink. That's the only way to truly survive in this game - with the help of the loot boxes dropped upon you by the generous benefactors watching from across the galaxy. And if you do have that "it" factor, you may just find yourself with a following. You gotta fight with vigor, with excitement. It's about building an audience and killing those goblins with style. In this game, it's not about your strength or your dexterity. You have but days to find a staircase to the next level down, or it's game over. And what's worse, each level has a time limit. A dungeon so enormous, it circles the entire globe. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot. In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. A sadistic game show unlike anything in the universe: a dungeon crawl where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible.
