After spending a little bit too much time with his friend Jack, Jack Daniel's, that is, at his cousin's wedding, Keaton wakes up to the news that "he's the next contestant on Fairytale Love" (read: The Price is Right announcer voice). Imagine his surprise, since he has no memory of agreeing to be on the dating show. His investigation into the mystery of this fake news begins with unanswered texts to his niece, who happens to be a PA on said show, and ends with him crashing his family's Sunday breakfast, where he finds the aforementioned niece looking sheepish and avoiding eye contact. After a quick Q&A, it is revealed that she is the "source" who leaked the casting news in an attempt to impress her boss, the producer of the show. Does he want to go on the show? No. Is it a sacrifice he's willing to make to help his niece? Apparently so. When his selfless act brings him face to face with the sexy redhead who ghosted him five years earlier and has haunted his dreams ever since, he's not sure if it's a no-good-deed-goes-unpunished situation or fate giving him a second chance at real love.

Bermuda Bound: From London to Paradise by P. M. Lane (39 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

Forget a year in Provence, try living on a tiny island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean for four years. Bermuda Bound is a personal account of living and working on the beautiful island of Bermuda. The book relates encounters with modern day pirates, sea monsters, raging Atlantic storms, colourful local characters and suicidal tourists, against a remote background of incredible beauty in the western Atlantic. Gone are grey skies, wintry nights and miserable people to be replaced by blue skies, exquisite colonial architecture, colourful characters and tall swaying palm trees. Bermuda with its four hundred year history of pirates, smugglers, rum runners and ship wrecks is England's oldest colonial outpost, a sub-tropical haven where the modern world comes face to face with old ways and customs to form a unique blend of history, tradition and development, which is the very essence of Bermuda. Bermuda's beautiful beaches, exquisite lagoons and stunning scenery are all depicted together with colourful local characters, like the man who spends each morning smiling and waving at commuters in order to brighten the days of the vibrant Bermudian people. Read of scuba diving expeditions on pristine reefs and explorations of old shipwrecks lost in violent storms, of sport fishing trips to capture giant silver sea monsters, of colonial architecture and ornate pastel painted buildings hundreds of years old and of a modern paradise isolated in the Atlantic Ocean by hundreds of miles of shifting sea.

Last of the Wild Days : Book One - Spring by Daniel J Loney (22 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

The Wild Days are all but over, and the Howling Hunt is nearing... Facing the worst winter in living memory, Brackenhal and Merralea are fleeing south with what's left of their tribe - and their last remaining cub. Plagued by cold, hunger, and opportunistic Flesheaters who are picking off their fellow Foragers one by one, there is still no sign of winter lifting, nor spring returning. Along their path, they discover an abandoned fox cub lying in the snow, yet despite foxes being among the most feared and cruel of all predators, they decide to raise the cub as their own. Meanwhile, another creature born of winter itself is uniting the Flesheaters under one creed to begin a great hunt, and while the Foragers raise their orphaned cub in little knowledge of the looming threat, the Wintergazer is ever growing in both power... and hunger. Against the setting described above, The Last of the Wild Days is the story of someone born into one way of life but raised into another; whose identity is increasingly torn between heritage and upbringing, nature and nurture, right and wrong - who must ultimately discover what the meanings of family and friendship truly are to them. As well as for use of setting, the world, characters and their various attitudes towards one another are intended as a satirical reflection of humanity and our issues throughout history that are still largely present today such as tribalism, slavery and greed. Dedicated to the memory of my brother Nathaniel (Natty), Brian Jacques whose books we both grew up with, and other influential authors who are sadly no longer with us, this is a story of life, death, love, grief, captivity, freedom, prejudice, compassion, and the complicated, bittersweet bonds of friendship and family - in a reflection of our own lives as a combination of beauty, agony and everything in between.

The purchase allowed Jefferson to plan something he had talked about since taking office: an expedition deep into the unmapped and largely unknown continent with the final destination being the Pacific Ocean. This could prove the most significant of the goals that Jefferson - a person who thought of himself as a scientifically-minded thinker - wanted to accomplish as president. Though he knew he had bought a huge amount of land, Jefferson wasn't entirely sure of what he had bought, so he asked a team led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark to traverse the continent until they reached the Pacific, studying everything from the ecology to geography along the way to get an understanding of the country's new region. Lewis and Clark would find far more than they anticipated. The 33 men who made the trip came into contact with about two dozen Native American tribes, many of whom helped the men survive the journey, and along the way they met and were assisted by the famous Sacagawea, who would become one of the expedition's most famous participants. Though they suffered deaths on their way west, the group ultimately reached the Pacific coast and got back to St. ...

Vain & Valour : Volume 1 - Vanity by Justan Autor (1 Review)    Price verified 19 minutes ago

"Search the waters!" A familiar shout went up from near the castle. "Find that traitor!" To where does one flee when hunted by the world? What if you, the accused, held the very fate of the Ancien Régime in your grasp? And to survive, you had to become someone else? Espionage has a new face in the age of revolution. Meet a legend in the making. Against the sweeping backdrop of the Swiss Alps in 1791, this first instalment to the series "Vain & Valour" unfolds. In a confederacy poised on the brink of chaos, where secrets are currency, loyalty is a luxury, and every precarious step swings between survival and destruction, one false move could ignite revolution across Switzerland's neutral cantons. A mysterious fugitive ensnared in an assassination plot becomes the unwitting agent of destiny. But with the past holding the key to the future, will his choices save a nation or destroy it? Just as the title suggests, this narrative juxtaposes forces and themes that interplay brilliantly throughout its pages. As much a comedy of manners as it is a spy thriller, moments of laugh-out-loud absurdity collide with heart-pounding tension as we witness the birth of a secret agent. We encounter characters -- peasants and aristocrats, altruists and schemers, lovers and fighters -- who each embody the struggles between selfish ambition and noble sacrifice. "Vain & Valour" is more than a historical epic; it's a celebration of genre-blending artistry. A symphony of contrasts that captures the dance of deception and loyalty, burlesque and drama, mystery and romance, folly and grandeur. Evoked is the essence of Fleming, Dumas, le Carré, Hugo, Ludlum, and Fielding. Blended is the brilliance of adventure with the complexity of character study, where the vanity of one man is pitted against his capacity for valorous deeds. This is a story that promises not only to captivate with its plot but to resonate with its depth. Espionage has never looked so good. "In vain doth valour ...

The Experience of Alien Royal Servants in Thirteenth-Century England by Michael Ray (3 Reviews)    Price verified 19 minutes ago

At the beginning of the thirteenth century, King John lost his Norman and Angevin lands to the King of France. The Anglo-Norman nobility had to choose which King to support and accept the loss of their lands under the rule of the King they had disowned. However, John continued to rely on his trusted Normans as soldiers and officials, many of whom were instrumental in preventing the son of the King of France from seizing the throne, first from John, and after his death in 1216 from his son Henry III. Despite their service to the crown, many of these aliens were disenfranchised during Henry's minority as the English baronage and clergy whipped up hostility against them. Henry later encouraged the arrival of two further groups of aliens into England, the Savoyards and Poitevins, who were relatives of his mother and wife. He lavished patronage on them as a way to consolidate his power both at home and abroad. In 1263 Simon de Montfort revived hostility against aliens in his war against the King. This whole period marks a pronounced awareness of the Englishness of those born in England. Henry's successors continued to employ and foster the careers of aliens but the Montfortian wars taught them to tread carefully. The chapters in this book cover the reigns of John, Henry III and the first three Edwards. They show how some families accumulated considerable rewards. Some weathered prejudice and became fully assimilated. Some did not and never established firm roots in England. What stands out is that all of the aliens studied repaid the Kings with loyalty and efficiency.
