But after losing his career and his fiancée in a car accident, he falls into a pit of grief and bad choices. Gorgeous, talented, and brilliant, NFL quarterback Ronan Smith has the world in his hands. Can this tormented prince accept love, or will he push his princess away forever?Īn Amazon Charts and #1 Kindle Store bestseller.Īn NFL quarterback turned small-town coach gets sacked by a Texas beauty queen in this swoony, passionate romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills. Getting tangled up with a shallow jerk is the last thing Francesca needs right now, so she vows to keep Tuck from recognizing her (not that she’s his type anyway).īut fate has a teeny-tiny trick up her sleeve…a plus sign on a pregnancy test. His hobbies include parties and supermodels-or so the tabloids say. Unfortunately, Francesca realizes quickly that her masked prince is the wealthy jock who lives in the penthouse of her apartment building. For one night, Francesca and Tuck indulge in a wickedly incognito affair.

Levelheaded Francesca Lane never thought she’d miss her own wedding. A masquerade ball brings together an NFL player and a penniless princess in this smart and sexy romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills. I love the layers in “Hickory.” Characters’ actions sometimes come from multiple people pulling their strings. Amusingly (and central to the plot), young and dim pharmacist Celia wants to get the attention of young psychologist Colin, so she pretends to be a kleptomaniac.īut - as Poirot, reliable Inspector Sharpe and some of the residents notice – Celia is not clever enough to come up with this scheme on her own. “Hickory” shows the positive and negative ways different personalities rub against each other, from deadly conflicts to sweet romances. It’s impressive how Christie writes Akibombo’s speech in stunted fashion yet he’s totally understandable. I find his efforts to speak English entertaining. It’s difficult to keep up with what’s PC nowadays, so it’s possible African student Akibombo is not well-regarded anymore. Also published as: “Hickory Dickory Dock” With no other recourse, she sneaks into a land more fantastical than any fairy tale, determined to find the one man with the key to her redemption. Possessed by the demon of Misery, Cameo isn't allowed to experience joy.

The Princes of Ireland (The Dublin Saga, 1) by Edward Rutherfurd (Goodreads Author) Carole s review really liked it Edward Rutherfurd is one of my favorite authors and while 'The Princes of Ireland' is good, it is not one of my favorites of his books. Access-restricted-item true Addeddate 07:02:30 Boxid IA40136022 Camera Sony Alpha-A6300 (Control) Collection_set printdisabled External-identifier Through the eyes of Shevek-the-boy, we see Avarres first as a place where parents must leave their infant children to benefit society, which is easier for some than for others. Similarly, the look we get at Urras and Avarres in the first two chapters of The Dispossessed depends on which side Shevek is on- the perspective is different as Shevek-the-man arrives in Urras than Shevek-the-boy learning the values of his society and experimenting with his peers. “What was inside and what was outside it depended upon which side of it you were on” (Le Guin 1). Le Guin reminds the readers that like her novel, the wall is all about perspective. This wall is a real, material representation of a symbolic separation between the planets Anarres and Urras. Ursula Le Guin opens her novel with the image of a wall. However, I do understand that since her mother, Abby Winters was acting out of character, I see her concern. I could not believe this woman got on the plane to find her grown ass mama.

"The American Way" the first part, takes a historical view of the fast food business by analyzing its beginnings within post-World War II America while "Meat and Potatoes" examines the specific mechanisms of the fast-food industry within a modern context as well as its influence. The book is divided into two sections: "The American Way" and "Meat and Potatoes". He then spent nearly three years researching the fast-food industry, from the slaughterhouses and packing plants that turn out the burgers to the minimum-wage workers who cook them to the television commercials that entice children to eat them with the lure of cheap toys and colorful playgrounds.
