1. The Obsession
|
|||
|
The Hale family is obsessed with status, power, and control. No problem is too big their money can’t solve. Royce Hale manipulated me into giving him everything. My virginity. My hand in marriage. My heart. And as soon as he got what he wanted, he callously sold me off for a cool ten million. In the boardroom and the twisted game his family plays, he says the only rule is to win at all costs. Yesterday I learned a painful lesson not to trust the prince of Cape Hill. Today I’ll destroy his carefully laid plans and show him just how badly he’s already lost. All the money in the world won’t be able to stop me. The Obsession is the second book of the Filthy Rich Americans trilogy and should be read following The Initiation. |
2. The Play
|
|||
|
A brand-new standalone in the New York Times bestselling Briar U series! What I learned after last year’s distractions cost my hockey team our entire season? No more screwing up.  No more screwing, period. As the new team captain, I need a new philosophy: hockey and school now, women later. Which means that I, Hunter Davenport, am officially going celibate…no matter how hard that makes things. But there’s nothing in the rulebook that says I can’t be friends with a woman. And I won’t lie—my new classmate Demi Davis is one cool chick. Her smart mouth is hot as hell, and so is the rest of her, but the fact that she’s got a boyfriend eliminates the temptation to touch her. Except three months into our friendship, Demi is single and looking for a rebound. And she’s making a play for me . Avoiding her is impossible. We’re paired up on a yearlong school project, but I’m confident I can resist her. We’d never work, anyway. Our backgrounds are too different, our goals aren’t aligned, and her parents hate my guts. Hooking up is a very bad idea. Now I just have to convince my body—and my heart. |
3. You and Everything After
|

I’m that teenaged girl who has MS. You haven’t met me, but you’ve seen me around. You probably know my sister. We’re twins, and she’s the pretty one. Maybe you’ve heard about my reputation, how much I like to hook up at parties—how easy it is to get me in bed, get what you want, and forget about me after. Forget what you think you know. I’m leaving that girl behind. College is all about new beginnings. So from now on—I’m just Cass. And the rest…it isn’t written yet. And no one else gets to write my story for me. -------- “Tyson Preeter doesn’t do can’t.” That’s exactly what I want people to think when they see me. I am strong, invincible, confident, intelligent—arrogant. I’m the man who always finds a way around, over and through—until there’s nothing left. Since losing my ability to walk six years ago, I’ve relearned life. I don’t need sympathy. I don’t want charity. And I don’t do love. It’s better this way, saves my disappointments for me, and me alone, and it saves my strength for everything I want. But Cass Owens is about to wreck everything. She’s about to steal all of my strength away from me, because she needs it more. She’s about to break all of my rules, and break down all of my walls. She’s about to own me…completely. And I’m about to let her. * This is the second book in the Falling Series. Book 1, This Is Falling, is out now. Each book can be read as a standalone and will focus on a different couple. |

6. Brødbogen
|
|||
|
Denne brødbog gør det nemt og overskueligt at bage sit eget brød. Med mel, salt, vand og gær eller surdej kan man bage et godt brød. Altså et rigtig godt brød, faktisk. Resten – krumme, skorpe og smag – er noget, man kan hjælpe dejen til at udvikle gennem æltning, hævning og bagning. Mere langhåret behøver det ikke at være. Men hvorfor søren er det så, at det brød, man bager derhjemme, ikke altid er helt så lækkert, som det man køber til overpris hos bageren eller nyder på dyre restauranter? Det forklarer Annemette Voss i denne bog uden at fortabe sig i kemi, nørderi og indviklede bageprocesser. Hun viser, hvor nemt det faktisk kan være at bage brød med de rigtige kneb, og hvordan man med ro i maven ved at følge bogens opskrifter kan lave hjemmebagt brød, der er så godt, at man efterfølgende ikke har lyst til at spise andet. Opskrifterne er for overskuelighedens skyld baseret på en lille håndfuld af de allervigtigste meltyper, som kan fås overalt. Derudover indeholder bogen en grundig og letforståelig gennemgang af tilblivelsen af ens egen surdej. Der er gode tips til æltning, hævning, konsistens, drys, bagning, opbevaring og holdbarhed, og bogen kommer omkring emner som boller (med og uden frø og kerner), brød (fra rugbrød til grydebrød til knækbrød) og sødt brød (fra fødselsdagsboller til tebirkes). I alt indeholder bogen 50 nemme opskrifter på godt brød, der er bagt på enten gær eller surdej, og som vil få det til at dufte i hele hjemmet. Bogen giver én lyst til at kaste sig ud i brødbagningens kunst. ”Jeg har villet lave en brødbog til hverdagen. Til folk, der elsker at gå i køkkenet, men som også tit har travlt. Bogen gør det nemt og overskueligt at bage godt brød,” fortæller Annemette Voss. |

Este livro é para você que sonha em ser mãe. Aqui, você não encontrará dicas de como saber se está ovulando, qual chá ajuda na fertilidade ou sintomas de que você está grávida. Não que isso não seja importante. Mas, para a nossa abordagem, informações como essas não são uma prioridade. Em especial, para mulheres que são convidadas a revisitar a própria jornada por meio de um diagnóstico de infertilidade conjugal. Há algo muito maior que precisa ser evidenciado, mas que pouco se fala sobre isso nas matérias jornalísticas sobre infertilidade e/ou nos grupos de apoio a tentantes. E é aqui que reside o coração deste livro: trazer para a nossa consciência o movimento espiritual necessário para se permitir viver a maternidade, superando as dificuldades enfrentadas para a realização de uma gravidez. Todas as informações compartilhadas nesta obra são baseadas em conhecimentos milenares, seculares e de um processo intuitivo muito particular da autora, Gabriela Lacerda, que conseguiu engravidar de seus filhos, Gael e Benício, por meio da reprodução assistida. Gael veio ao mundo após a primeira tentativa de fertilização in vitro e Benício chegou graças a transferência de embrião único, após três anos de congelamento em laboratório. Sem dúvida, um livro inspirador para todas aquelas mulheres que sonham com a maternidade. |

14. Holacracy
|
|||
|
In Holacracy, Brian J Robertson outlines a ground-breaking approach to organisation: no managers, only roles 'Holacracy is the opposite of the cliché way to run a start-up. It creates clarity: who is in charge of what, and who makes each kind of decision ' Evan Williams , cofounder of Blogger, Twitter and Medium In traditional companies, managers make decisions, and workers execute the plan. But Holacracy is a revolutionary and tried-and-tested new system which turns everyone into a leader. The organisation looks like a nest of circles, not a pyramid -- but it's not anarchy. It's finally clear who should make each decision -- the person on the frontline has that authority -- and the organisation succeeds by adapting swiftly to pursue its purpose. In Holacracy, pioneer Brian Robertson explains how to adopt this system across your organisation -- and what you can do just within your department or for yourself -- and how to overcome any obstacles along the way. |

Grant is damaged, selfish, and undeserving of love…or so he thinks. Jessa is happy, in love, and has overcome her past…or so she thinks. Grant and Jessa can’t stop thinking about one another since being introduced at a party a month ago. And despite their differences, they can’t seem to stay away from each other either. However, both are hiding secrets of less-than-perfect pasts, fearing what will happen when those mistakes come to light. As they grow closer, they each battle their own insecurities, and neither believes that they are worthy of the kind of love that they both still want. So if it’s true that opposites attract, what happens when the similarities begin to surface? |
16. General Relativity 3: Astrophysics with Tensor Calculus
|
|||
|
This book continues our exploration of the most profound theory of science, Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity. All of modern astrophysics and cosmology stands on the foundation of General Relativity that is best expressed in tensors. This book, and its sequel, General Relativity 4: Astrophysics & Cosmology, present the clearest, most comprehensible, and most complete introduction to the tensor calculus of differential topology, which Einstein used to explain the cosmos. Derivations that are difficult to find elsewhere, are all collected here and explained in detail. This book presents all the principle tensors of General Relativity, and explains how these are computed and utilized. We apply our new expertise to: the derivation of the Schwarzchild metric the bending of starlight stable and unstable orbits around black holes the mass-energy tensor the precession of Mercury and binary pulsars. Those who love mathematical challenges need look no further. Others can bypass the appendices, which contain the most advanced material. |

20. Iron Curtain
|
|||
|
At the end of the Second World War, the Soviet Union unexpectedly found itself in control of a huge swathe of territory in Eastern Europe. Stalin and his secret police set out to convert a dozen radically different countries to a completely new political and moral system: communism. In Iron Curtain, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Anne Applebaum describes how the Communist regimes of Eastern Europe were created and what daily life was like once they were complete. Applebaum describes in devastating detail how political parties, the church, the media, young people's organizations - the institutions of civil society on every level - were quickly eviscerated. She explains how the secret police services were organized, how the media came to be dominated by communists, and how all forms of opposition were undermined and destroyed. Ranging widely across new archival material and many sources unknown in English, she follows the communists' tactics as they bullied, threatened and murdered their way to power. She also chronicles individual lives to show the choices people had to make - to fight, to flee, or to collaborate. Within a remarkably short period after the end of the war, Eastern Europe had been ruthlessly Stalinized. Iron Curtain is a brilliant history of a brutal period and a haunting reminder of how fragile free societies can be. Today the Soviet Bloc is a lost civilization, one whose cruelty, paranoia, bizarre morality, and strange aesthetics Anne Applebaum captures in the pages of this exceptional work of historical and moral reckoning. |

29. Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers
|
|||
|
Renowned primatologist Robert Sapolsky offers a completely revised and updated edition of his most popular work, with over 225,000 copies in print Now in a third edition, Robert M. Sapolsky's acclaimed and successful Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers features new chapters on how stress affects sleep and addiction, as well as new insights into anxiety and personality disorder and the impact of spirituality on managing stress. As Sapolsky explains, most of us do not lie awake at night worrying about whether we have leprosy or malaria. Instead, the diseases we fear-and the ones that plague us now-are illnesses brought on by the slow accumulation of damage, such as heart disease and cancer. When we worry or experience stress, our body turns on the same physiological responses that an animal's does, but we do not resolve conflict in the same way-through fighting or fleeing. Over time, this activation of a stress response makes us literally sick. Combining cutting-edge research with a healthy dose of good humor and practical advice, Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers explains how prolonged stress causes or intensifies a range of physical and mental afflictions, including depression, ulcers, colitis, heart disease, and more. It also provides essential guidance to controlling our stress responses. This new edition promises to be the most comprehensive and engaging one yet. |

At twenty-nine, he’s experienced more than most people could only ever imagine, all thanks to his family. Organized crime they call it. Mafia.  No matter how they spin it, it comes down to one thing. Max gets what he wants. Except for the one thing he wants most. Her name is Courtney Kogan.  And now that he’s had a taste of her, Max knows he’ll never be able to let her go. The Southern Boy Mafia series is a spinoff from the Sniper 1 Security series. It has been set up to be read without reading Sniper 1 Security, however, the characters will frequently cross over. |

Da Hodges en dag modtager et hånende brev fra Mercedesmorderen selv, indser han at morderen langt fra er færdig med at hævne sig på omverdenen.

'The book everyone's talking about' The Times 'Beautiful classic satire' Ricky Gervais 'Hilarious . . . the most artful form of subtle parody' Joe Rogan 'Titania McGrath is a genius' Spectator 'Just as Bridget Jones was the embodiment of the anxiety-ridden Nineties feminist, a creation whose diary entries encapsulated all our hopes, fears and failures, so Titania McGrath is her millennial successor, a girl every bit as lost and confused, every bit as accurately observed - and equally, catastrophically, hilarious.' Sarah Vine, Daily Mail In Woke , Titania McGrath demonstrates how everybody can play their part in the pursuit of social justice. As a millennial icon on the forefront of online activism, Titania is uniquely placed to guide her readers through the often bewildering array of terminology and concepts that constitute twenty-first-century 'wokeness'. These new ideas often leave the general public bemused, particularly if they don't read the Guardian . Being woke is actually much easier than people think. As Titania demonstrates, anyone can be an activist. By simply adding a rainbow flag to your Facebook profile, or calling out an elderly person who doesn't understand what 'non-binary' means, you can change the world for the better. Indeed, social media has now made it possible to show how virtuous you are without having to do anything at all. Timely and indispensable, Titania's step-by-step guide will help you to become the woke person you need to be in an increasingly progressive world. In a non-patronising manner, Titania will explain why you are wrong about everything and how to become more like her. |

52. Falling for my Brother's Best Friend

|
Let’s say you’re an independent, self-sufficient woman who runs the family company and you find yourself falling for your little brother’s best friend. Now, more than ever, you need to count all the reasons why you need to abandon falling. Abandon Falling #1 – He’s a womanizer. Hasn’t had a serious relationship a day in his life and changes women more often than he changes his sheets. Abandon Falling #2 – He’s never serious. He cracks one-liners, mostly at your expense. Abandon Falling #3 – When things go wrong, he seems unfazed and always remains in control. It’s so annoying. Abandon Falling #4 – He has tattoos. Lots of them. Everywhere. Not to mention, he owns a tattoo parlor. (Damn it! Why doesn’t that sound like a bad thing anymore?) Abandon Falling #5 – There’s a growing list of how different you two are. You can’t get along for fifteen minutes—a lifetime together would land one of you in prison. Keep repeating those reasons and drown yourself in work. Pretend you don’t notice his good qualities or how enticing he looks without a shirt, and do not, I repeat, do not agree to live with the man while your place is being repaired from flood damage. Trust me, even the strongest of us can only forego temptation for so long. |

55. Ser du månen, Daniel
|

|
Den dramatiske historie om den danske fotograf Daniel Rye, der sad som gidsel i 398 dage hos terrororganisationen Islamisk Stat i Syrien, fortalt af den prisvindende forfatter Puk Damsgård. Beretningen er et lille stykke danmarkshistorie midt i verdenshistorien.   I samarbejde med Daniel Rye, hans familie og andre med nært kendskab til historien fortæller DR’s mellemøstkorrespondent Puk Damsgård her for første gang om den danske fotografs kidnapning. Om de 13 måneder i fangenskab og det nu verdensberømte Islamisk Stat-fængsel i den syriske by Raqqa, hvor 24 vestlige gidsler sad under kontrol af deres fangevogter, briten bedst kendt som Jihadi John.  Daniel Rye var det sidste gidsel, der forlod fængslet i live i juni 2014. Herefter begyndte IS at dræbe de tilbageværende vestlige gidsler – Daniels medfanger. En af dem var den amerikanske journalist James Foley, som også var blevet Daniels ven. Den danske fotograf overbragte det sidste rørende brev til James Foleys familie, da han blev løsladt.  Puk Damsgård går også helt tæt på islamisk Stat og skildrer gennem interview med et tidligere IS-medlem terrororganisationen, der på kort tid er vokset til at være en regulær hær, som har erobret landområder og større byer, de administrerer som en stat i staten. Hun prøver at finde svar på, hvilken betydning Islamisk Stat har for udviklingen i Syrien og Irak, hvor Danmark deltager i krigen mod IS. Samt ikke mindst hvorfor Daniel Rye og andre gidsler blev forhandlet fri, mens andre aldrig kom hjem.  Ser du månen, Daniel giver et sjældent indblik i, hvordan mennesker overlever tortur, skaber venskaber og bevarer håbet under ekstreme forhold – og hvordan familien derhjemme håndterer frygten for, at deres søn aldrig kommer hjem. |

Året er 2011, og den egyptiske revolution kulminerer i det centrale Cairo, hvor mange tusinder egyptere kræver præsidentens afgang. Her møder vi Asma og Mazen, mens de forelsker sig i hinanden, og de to medicinstuderende Dania og Khaled, som kæmper for Tahrir-pladsens sårede, mens Danias magtfulde far holder øje med dem via sine forbindelser i sikkerhedstjenesten.  Vi møder Achraf, forfejlet skuespiller og nyligt opvakt revolutionær, som undslipper sin sure hverdag gennem en affære med Akram. Og så er der Issam, en desillusioneret ex-kommunist, der er klar til at gøre hvad som helst for at klatre op ad den sociale rangstige.  Igennem sine indtagende, menneskelige figurer tegner Alaa al-Aswany et modigt billede af den brydningstid, som har haft afgørende indflydelse på ikke bare Egypten, men store dele af Mellemøsten. Jeg løb mod Nilen er stor fortælling om håb og hykleri, begær og undertrykkelse, frihedstrang og længsel efter tryghed. |

Now newly revised and expanded, Anna Todd’s After fanfiction racked up 1 billion reads online and captivated readers across the globe. Experience the Internet’s most talked-about book for yourself! There was the time before Tessa met Hardin, and then there’s everything AFTER... Life will never be the same. #Hessa Tessa is a good girl with a sweet, reliable boyfriend back home. She’s got direction, ambition, and a mother who’s intent on keeping her that way. But she’s barely moved into her freshman dorm when she runs into Hardin. With his tousled brown hair, cocky British accent, tattoos, and lip ring, Hardin is cute and different from what she’s used to. But he’s also rude—to the point of cruelty, even. For all his attitude, Tessa should hate Hardin. And she does—until she finds herself alone with him in his room. Something about his dark mood grabs her, and when they kiss it ignites within her a passion she’s never known before. He’ll call her beautiful, then insist he isn’t the one for her and disappear again and again. Despite the reckless way he treats her, Tessa is compelled to dig deeper and find the real Hardin beneath all his lies. He pushes her away again and again, yet every time she pushes back, he only pulls her in deeper. Tessa already has the perfect boyfriend. So why is she trying so hard to overcome her own hurt pride and Hardin’s prejudice about nice girls like her? Unless…could this be love ? |

66. Sapiens
|

|
New York Times Bestseller A Summer Reading Pick for President Barack Obama, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg From a renowned historian comes a groundbreaking narrative of humanity’s creation and evolution—a #1 international bestseller—that explores the ways in which biology and history have defined us and enhanced our understanding of what it means to be “human.” One hundred thousand years ago, at least six different species of humans inhabited Earth. Yet today there is only one—homo sapiens. What happened to the others? And what may happen to us? Most books about the history of humanity pursue either a historical or a biological approach, but Dr. Yuval Noah Harari breaks the mold with this highly original book that begins about 70,000 years ago with the appearance of modern cognition. From examining the role evolving humans have played in the global ecosystem to charting the rise of empires, Sapiens integrates history and science to reconsider accepted narratives, connect past developments with contemporary concerns, and examine specific events within the context of larger ideas. Dr. Harari also compels us to look ahead, because over the last few decades humans have begun to bend laws of natural selection that have governed life for the past four billion years. We are acquiring the ability to design not only the world around us, but also ourselves. Where is this leading us, and what do we want to become? Featuring 27 photographs, 6 maps, and 25 illustrations/diagrams, this provocative and insightful work is sure to spark debate and is essential reading for aficionados of Jared Diamond, James Gleick, Matt Ridley, Robert Wright, and Sharon Moalem. |

69. Ternet Ninja 2
|
|||
|
Ternet Ninja er tilbage! Og denne gang går turen til Thailand, hvor den uheldige Aske sammen med sin ternede ninja-ven genoptager kampen for at få retfærdigheden til at ske fyldest. Ternet Ninja blev bidt i stumper og stykker efter mødet med en glubsk narkohund i Bangkok Lufthavn i Anders Matthesens første børnebog Ternet Ninja, som udkom i 2016 til stor anmelderros og sammenligninger med både Ole Lund Kirkegaard og Bjarne Reuter. Nu fortsætter historien i en bog 2, hvor ånden efter den gamle japanske ninja opstår i ny skikkelse, men med samme rapkæftede personlighed. Den nye historie følger Aske og hele hans pukkelryggede familie på ferie: papfar Jørn, som har gang i et nyt projekt (denne gang en tarm-app), Sune med den glubende appetit, Askes mor Sirene og onkel Stewart, ikke at forglemme. Det går ikke stille for sig i Bangkok og omegn, når den højrøstede familie slår sig løs. Bøgerne er gennemillustrerede med s/h stregillustrationer af Thorbjørn Christoffersen i samme tegnestil som filmen. Pressen skriver: »Anders Matthesens anden bog om Aske fra 7. og ninjaånden Taiko Nakamura er en hæsblæsende røverhistorie med sjove replikker og et actionmættet klimaks.« - Erik Barkman, Weekendavisen »Romanen er rigtig dejlig at læse, og med den velkendte sprudlende humor og sproglige energi - og dertil det gode plot, de ferme persontegninger og den spænding, der gør, at man som læser trækkes igennem den og slet ikke har lyst til andet end bare at vende blad efter blad. Det er en super dejlig oplevelse.« - Eiler Jensen, Børn & Bøger »Ternet Ninja 2 lever til fulde op til niveauet i første bind i det, der tydeligvis er på vej til at blive en serie for børn og barnlige sjæle. Det kan man kun glæde sig over, for Matthesen leverer varen som Bjarne Reuters værdige arvtager. Med mundret sprog, skarpe dialoger, fjollet humor og fyndige, hverdagsfilosofiske pointer fortæller han en grotesk historie om en (næsten) helt almindelig dreng og hans (næsten) helt almindelige familie og om en (næsten) helt almindelig forbrydelse […] Ikke nok med, at Ninjaen kan kravle ind i en ny krop, pindsvin, bamse eller whatever, Anden formår også at hoppe ind i sin læsers hoved. Så har man altså visse evner.« **** - Merete Reinholdt, Berlingske »Tænk, at en lille ternet dukke med øjne af knapper og et sværd på størrelse med en tandstik kan gå hen og blive kult! […] Ubesværet og slentresludrende bevæger forfatteren sig igennem handlingen, til den slutter med en grande finale og et plask […] det ser ud, som om der kommer et tredje bind snart og straks. Er der ikke ninjaer på Månen?« **** - Steffen Larsen, Politiken »Det er endnu en fantastisk morsom og tempofyldt bog i serien om den ternede ninja […] En pragtfuld 2'er.« - Martin W Hansen, Lektør »Anders Matthesens talent ligger ikke bare i hans vanvittigt fantasifulde og sjofle sprog, men i timingen. Hans timing får en dialog til at virke sprængfarlig […] vi skal glæde os over, at Anders Matthesen har kastet sig over børnebøgerne, for han vil sgu noget med det.« - Anita Brask Rasmussen, Information »Mesterlige Matthesen inviterer på den vildeste ferie, og den lille, aggressive ninja er tilbage i ny form. Stadig psykopathævngerrig, morderisk og helt igennem genial […] Anders Matthesens kæmpe fortælletalent og formidable humor fylder siderne helt ud, men det hverken kan eller må være anderledes.« - Jette Holmgaard Greibe, Litteratursiden »Matthesen har gjort det igen. Skrevet en forrygende, fabelagtig og fantasifuld historie, der vil blæse dig omkuld. Han sprudler hvis muligt endnu mere i Ternet Ninja 2 og gør alle bekymringer om bog 2 kan leve op til bog 1 til skamme. Jeg er sikker på, at den kan få børn til at læse i ferien - helt frivilligt. - Rikke Dyrhave, Æseløre »Den er en rigtig god bog, som både er for børn, unge og voksne. Den kan derfor skabe et samlingspunkt, og vil helst sikkert være fantastisk i hver bogreol, som ønsker at samle familien […] Den kan kun anbefales herfra.« 9/10 - Bookeater »Ternet Ninja er vel nok det bedste bud på en arvtager til Bjarne Reuters Bertram-bøger. De er sjove og skæve, skildrer såkaldt almindelige mennesker, og Anders Matthesen er loyal over for alle bogens karakterer. At bøgerne tilmed giver mulighed for en snak med børnene om virkeligheden for børn andre steder i verden, er kun et plus.« - Maibritt Lindblad, Bogvægten |

71. Stolen
|

|
Warning: This story is for mature adults only. It contains violence, mature and explicit content and non-consensual/dubious, graphic sexual activity that some readers may find upsetting. This is a dark erotic thriller, not to be confused with a dark romance. HER This was never supposed to happen to me. I was smart. I was strong. I was a f*****g first degree black belt for f**k's sake, but none of that mattered. Not when you're out-gunned and outnumbered. I was stolen from my life and thrown into the dark and hollow depths of human trafficking. But its not all glitter and rainbows...especially when it comes to him. He wants me beaten. He wants me broken. But most importantly, he just wants me and that's the scariest thing of all. I won't let him win. I won't let him break me. I'll come back like steel every time. Because in the end, what doesn't kill me will only make me stronger... HIM I'm not a very nice guy. I'm a terrible person, in fact, but I'm not even going to pretend to care. I have a billion dollar empire to run that manifests carnage, blood, and money and I love every second of it. The thrill of breaking even the most sniveling of cowards down is exhilarating, but nothing compares to the thrill of breaking the defiance of an errant slave girl. My empire was built on the bare backs of women thanks to my father's past business ventures, but I brought it up to the heights it is now. Nothing ever got in my way, nothing stopped me. If I wanted something, I made it happen, that is until this f*****g girl crawled into my life. Strong, defiant, and a mixed martial artist, she was everything I never expected to want in a woman, but want her I did. Breaking her down became an obsession as she'd always somehow pop back up like a f*****g weed I couldn't kill. It was addicting and it became harder and harder for me to pretend I didn't love the taste of her fire every time I covered her with my ice. I wanted more and I had a feeling there would be no stopping the train once it left the station because if I had her, I didn't think I'd ever get enough... |

FAST-PACED, GRITTY, ROMANTIC, STEAMY! It's not a dream, Mr. Carelli is sexy, rich, caring and the devil. Fall in love, fall in danger. Tess Williams is a hard-working single mother who has finally gotten a lucky break, snagging a job at the Golden Club, owned by Mr. Carelli, a very wealthy and connected entrepreneur. She catches his eyes and a passionate romance begins to blossoms between them but there's one unseen dilemma! It will turn her life upside-down, plunging her deep into the belly of danger.  CLICK the Look-inside to read a sample. "Tess, Mr Carelli wants to see you in his office." Mack leaned against my locker with his arms folded. I couldn't figure out the look on his face. I felt the blood drain from my face. "Oh…" I said as I grabbed my handbag and put it back in my locker. "Okay." "Don't worry. You're not in trouble." He said with a grin. "You sure?" I said with more than a hint of uncertainty. "Yep. He just wants to talk to you about something." "He didn't say what it was about, did he?" I said softly, closing the door to my locker and turning the combination lock. "Nope, just that he was eager to talk to you." Mack stood upright, returning to his impressive 6'5 height, towering above my petite 5'9. "Don't look so worried, if the boss wanted you gone, Gina would have told you." I nodded and we left the locker room. Mack took me up to an elevator hidden behind a curtain and punched in a security card into the reader. I noticed that there were no buttons for the floors, only the emergency telephone, door close and emergency stop buttons adorned the panel. I got even more nervous as the lift doors closed and the car ascended to the top of the building. The penthouse and Mr Carelli's offices. The elevator stopped and we got out. The floor was breathtakingly decorated. Black marble with gold inlays between the blocks and black marble a quarter of the way up the walls gave the place a look of dark luxury. I took in the beauty of the décor, ferns hung on the walls interspersed with the lighting sconces of frosted glass. Mack led me down the entry hall to a mahogany door where he knocked twice before he entered. Sal was sitting behind a desk doing paperwork. He smiled warmly as Mack ushered me in. "Tessa." He said warmly as he stood up and walked around the desk to greet me. I took his hand. He surprised me by kissing the knuckles instead of shaking my hand like I expected. I felt my cheeks flush with red as I blushed. No man had ever kissed my hand before. "That will be all thank you Mack." Sal said. He kept a hold of my hand and escorted me to a leather couch, he made sure I was comfortable before he offered me a drink. I smiled a little at the role reversal. "So, Tessa." He began, saying my name like he was sampling a fine wine. "Please, just Tess. Mr Carelli." "Tell you what." He said, turning from the whiskey he was pouring himself and the Coca-Cola that I had asked for. "Call me Sal, and I'll call you Tess." He smiled as I nodded and he finished pouring his whiskey. He handed me my drink, his fingers brushing mine for a heart-stopping moment. "To a new opportunity." He said, toasting with his whiskey. I raised my glass with him and we drank. His eyes never left mine from over the rim of his glass. "You're probably wondering why I asked to see you tonight." He began. I nodded, my nerves fluttering around my body like crazy. "Yes, I am Mr… I mean, Sal. I'm curious." "Well, Tess. Two reasons. . Download and continue reading |

79. Parasitterne

|
I Soyas klassiske skuespil "Parasitterne" møder vi en række mennesker, der som parasitter lever af at snyde og bedrage andre. De suger sig fast på almindelige sagesløse mennesker og udnytter dem så godt, de kan. Der gik flere år, fra Soya skrev "Parasitterne", til det blev opført på et teater, men i dag er det bredt anerkendt som et af det tyvende århundredes store skuespil, ikke mindst efter DR‘s tv-udgave i 1958. Carl Erik Martin Soya (1896-1983) var en dansk forfatter og dramatiker, der skrev en perlerække af skuespil og romaner, som vandt stor popularitet hos publikum såvel som anmeldere. Soya var en stor satiriker og samfundsrevser, og med sin revykomedie "Umbabumba skrifter forfatning" fra 1935 udstillede han gennem det fiktive afrikanske land Umbabumba nazisternes angreb på demokratiet i 1930‘erne. Stykkets egen skæbne kom til at understrege, at også den danske ytringsfrihed var under pres, da den danske regering under pres fra Tyskland tog stykket af plakaten, inden det nåede at få premiere. Soya var en af de største og mest produktive danske forfattere i det tyvende århundrede, og han blev i løbet af sit liv hædret med en lang række priser og legater. |

87. Diabelska krew
|
|||
|
Trzecia po Ewangelii krwi i Niewinnej krwi, a zarazem ostatnia część pisanego wspólnie z Rebeccą Cantrell cyklu Zakon Sangwinistów. Fabuła serii łączy elementy nauki, mitologii i religii z wartką akcją. Słowo „cud” zyskuje tu nowe znaczenie, a walka dobra ze złem jest znacznie bardziej skomplikowanym przedsięwzięciem, niż ktokolwiek mógłby przypuszczać. Autorzy Diabelskiej krwi zabierają nas do świata, gdzie bramy piekła będą musiały zostać roztrzaskane, by ludzkość mogła poznać swoje przeznaczenie… Plaga brutalnych morderstw ogarnia świat. Archeolog, dr Erin Granger, musi rozszyfrować przesłanie proroctwa przepowiedzianego w spisanej przez Chrystusa i zaginionej przez wieki tajemniczej księdze zwanej Ewangelią krwi. Widmo spełniającej się apokalipsy zmusza Erin do połączenia sił z sierżantem Jordanem Stonem oraz ojcem Rhunem Korzą i odnalezienia skarbu zaginionego przez stulecia. Ale to, czego szukają, spoczywa w rękach ich wroga, demona o imieniu Legion, którego boją się nawet mury Watykanu. W poszukiwaniu klucza do zbawienia Erin i jej towarzysze przemierzą wiele krajów i epok. Będą mieli okazję przyjrzeć się zakurzonym półkom w watykańskim ściśle tajnym archiwum, a nawet średniowiecznym laboratoriom, w których alchemicy wieki temu dopuszczali się okropnych rzeczy. Wskazówki do odnalezienia skarbu ukryte są w pochodzących z czasów antycznych podziemnych kaplicach i górskich jaskiniach. Aby ochronić świat, dr Granger będzie musiała przejść przez bramy piekła, by spotkać się z tym, który za tym wszystkim stoi – Lucyferem. W tym niezwykłym finale serii Rollins i Cantrell zabierają swoich czytelników do czeluści piekieł, gdzie ci będą musieli zmierzyć się ze swoimi największymi demonami, by odpowiedzieć na kluczowe pytanie: Jaką cenę zapłaci ludzkość za wolność i zbawienie? |

Pre-order John le Carr é 's new novel Agent Running in the Field now, and be one of the first to read it. 'No other writer has charted - pitilessly for politicians but thrillingly for readers - the public and secret histories of his times' Guardian ________________________________ Nat, a 47 year-old veteran of Britain's Secret Intelligence Service, believes his years as an agent runner are over. He is back in London with his wife, the long-suffering Prue. But with the growing threat from Moscow Centre, the office has one more job for him. Nat is to take over The Haven, a defunct substation of London General with a rag-tag band of spies. The only bright light on the team is young Florence, who has her eye on Russia Department and a Ukrainian oligarch with a finger in the Russia pie. Nat is not only a spy, he is a passionate badminton player. His regular Monday evening opponent is half his age: the introspective and solitary Ed. Ed hates Brexit, hates Trump and hates his job at some soulless media agency. And it is Ed, of all unlikely people, who will take Prue, Florence and Nat himself down the path of political anger that will ensnare them all. Agent Running in the Field is a chilling portrait of our time, now heartbreaking, now darkly humorous, told to us with unflagging tension by the greatest chronicler of our age. _______________________________ 'John le Carré is as recognisable a writer as Dickens or Austen' Financial Times 'No writer has ever been better at turning the act of two people talking politely to each other across a desk into a blood sport' Telegraph |

You might say it’s poor form to throw the bride over your shoulder caveman-style and run off with her, especially if it’s not your wedding. Whoops . It’s her wedding day. I’m not the groom. Oh, but I’m  going  to be… The world may call me a King and a gentleman, but there’s  nothing  gentle about me. I’ve fought like hell to get to where I am, and these rough hands want one thing and one thing only – to hold her and  never  let her go. She’s my obsession – my  addiction . Blonde, blue-eyed, innocent and tempting, with lips that beg to be tasted and curves that were  made  to press against me. But a rival king – a cruel, evil piece of sh*t – has stepped in to  buy  her hand and her innocence with the promise of paying off her parents’ debts. He thinks that makes her his, but he’s about to learn how wrong he is. You see, the rumors about my royal  staff aren’t tall tales. She deserves a  real  man. A better man. King Milton just isn’t the right  fit for her. …Oh, but  I am . And I’m going to “fit” with her so well that she’ll be moaning for more. I’m a king, after all. And kings take what they want. And tonight? I’m taking  her . I’ll do anything to make her my queen. …Even if I have to steal her. Grab those tiaras and hold on to your jewels! One totally obsessed, totally big alpha King, one smart, sassy, stolen bride, and enough insta-love, steam, and sugary-sweetness to knock you right out of your throne. This book is utterly over-the-top fantasy with pretty much zero grounding in reality. You’ve been warned ;). As with all my books, this one is safe, with no cheating, and a HEA guaranteed. |

Hot for the Biker is book 3 and the finale of The Warriors MC trilogy! I was innocent… until he made me his. I was a prisoner in a life I hated. So when the biker offered me a way out, I took it. I didn't know it when I jumped on his bike, but… He never planned on letting me go. BAMBI I'm an inmate in a gilded cage. Pageants and parades, make-up and fancy dresses. Some girls might kill for this. But to me, it was hell on earth. And that makes my mother the devil. So when the outlaw roared up on his chopper, all leather and muscles and sin, I did the first thing that came to mind: I took his outstretched hand. With that bike between my legs and his brawn in front of me, I felt freer than I had since the day I was born. This was wild. This was freedom. And then it all came crashing down. The biker wasn't offering me a brief escape from my f**ked-up world. He was kidnapping me for good. And when I tried to go back to the home I'd left… My mother slammed the door in my face. Now, I have nowhere to go. I belong to a man whose plans for me start with three little words: "Bend over, sweetheart." |

You might be wondering how you’ll know when your playboy ways are coming to an end. For some it might be an unexpected pregnancy (ahem… you know who), for others it might be finally landing the one woman you’ve always wanted (cough… I won’t mention any names).

Demise Sign #1 – You find yourself thrust into the land of responsibility and you don’t immediately hightail it out of town. Demise Sign #2 – Despite being stuck with the world’s biggest Jekyll & Hyde, some sadistic part of you actually enjoys spending time with her. Demise Sign #3 – Your family suddenly stops wanting to weigh in on every decision in your life. Demise Sign #4 – Somehow you end up being the voice of reason in your tumultuous partnership. Demise Sign #5 – You start thinking of other people before yourself. Demise Sign #6 – You agree to put yourself in the middle of an Alaskan reality TV show that has both of you sleeping in the same tent. Demise Complete. |

100. Me

'The rock memoir of the decade' Daily Mail In his first and only official autobiography, music icon Elton John reveals the truth about his extraordinary life, which is also the subject of the smash-hit film Rocketman . The result is Me - the joyously funny, honest and moving story of the most enduringly successful singer/songwriter of all time. ______________ Christened Reginald Dwight, he was a shy boy with Buddy Holly glasses who grew up in the London suburb of Pinner and dreamed of becoming a pop star. By the age of twenty-three, he was performing his first gig in America, facing an astonished audience in his bright yellow dungarees, a star-spangled T-shirt and boots with wings. Elton John had arrived and the music world would never be the same again. His life has been full of drama, from the early rejection of his work with songwriting partner Bernie Taupin to spinning out of control as a chart-topping superstar; from half-heartedly trying to drown himself in his LA swimming pool to disco-dancing with the Queen; from friendships with John Lennon, Freddie Mercury and George Michael to setting up his AIDS Foundation. All the while, Elton was hiding a drug addiction that would grip him for over a decade. In Me Elton also writes powerfully about getting clean and changing his life, about finding love with David Furnish and becoming a father. In a voice that is warm, humble and open, this is Elton on his music and his relationships, his passions and his mistakes. This is a story that will stay with you, by a living legend. ______________ 'Self-deprecating, funny . . . You cannot help but enjoy his company throughout, temper tantrums and all' The Times 'Chatty, gossipy, amusing and at times brutally candid' Telegraph |
