![]() plus, bad boys/bikers always fall the hardest. Being able to give them that is incredibly satisfying. For me, that's the best part - these bad boys can and will keep the loves of their lives safe, no matter what the cost to themselves. ![]() Because, really, a true bad boy is not only OK with a strong partner - it's the only kind of partner who would ever hold their interest. They're wild and fun, and strong enough to handle a love who's hard to handle. Stephanie: Where do I start? First, these bad boys can immediately pull a girl (or guy) out of their shell and into their world. What's the best part about writing biker/bad-boy romances? For me, MC books are a hit or miss because too much misogyny, and I end up hating the whole thing, but I love how Caspar changed the club and how Tru found her way back to him. He breathed, 'Son of a bitch.' And to Toms surprise, Law got down on one knee and took his hand. She does a fabulous job sounding like a biker guy, a Southern guy and, of course, Tru. ![]() It was the first MC/post-apocalyptic book I read and the audio version was just stunning. ![]() Me: I have quite a few, but one of my favs is Defiance by Steph Tyler. Jamie McGuire essentially created an entirely new subgenre, and I remember how that book just blew my mind. It's not just that I enjoyed the book, but that when I read it, I'd never encountered anything like it. Joanna: There are so many great ones out there, but I think I'll go with Beautiful Disaster. ![]() ![]() ![]() The big challenge of the book was that the sound engineering so such that when listening I had to turn the volume way up to hear what was being said. ![]() Good Story but distracting sound engineering "A nation born in contradiction, liberty in a land of slavery, sovereignty in a land of conquest, will fight, forever, over the meaning of its history", Lepore writes, finding meaning in those very contradictions as she weaves American history into a majestic tapestry of faith and hope, of peril and prosperity, of technological progress and moral anguish.Ī spellbinding chronicle filled with arresting sketches of Americans from John Winthrop and Frederick Douglass to Pauli Murray and Phyllis Schlafly, These Truths offers an authoritative new history of a great, and greatly troubled, nation. In riveting prose, These Truths tells the story of America, beginning in 1492, to ask whether the course of events has proven the nation's founding truths or belied them. And it rests, too, "n a dedication to inquiry, fearless and unflinching", writes Jill Lepore in a groundbreaking investigation into the American past that places truth itself at the center of the nation's history. The American experiment rests on three ideas - "these truths", Jefferson called them - political equality, natural rights, and the sovereignty of the people. In the most ambitious one-volume American history in decades, award-winning historian Jill Lepore offers a magisterial account of the origins and rise of a divided nation. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you’re a fan of The Oatmeal or and hate being wrong about stuff, you’ll love what you find in YOU MIGHT BE A ZOMBIE from the twisted minds at Cracked.

I n 1989, Richard McGuire, an aspiring New York artist, drew a 36-panel comic that leapt back and forth through thousands of years of history without ever stepping outside the four walls of a suburban living room – a feat he achieved by floating frames within frames (his inspiration was Microsoft Windows, then just four years old). ![]() ![]() ![]() The first and only novel I read by Laura Purcell until now was an ecopy of The Corset in 2018, a novel I absolutely loved. Hester has fled to Cornwall to try to escape her past, but surrounded by superstitious staff enacting bizarre rituals, she soon discovers her new home may be just as dangerous as her last. While he devotes himself to his controversial medical trials, Louise finds herself increasingly discomfited by the strange tales her new maid tells of the fairies that hunt the land, searching for those they can steal away to their realm.įorty years later, Hester arrives at Morvoren House to take up a position as nurse to the now partially paralyzed and mute Miss Pinecroft. ![]() Pinecroft has plans for a revolutionary experiment: convinced that sea air will prove to be the cure his wife and children needed, he arranges to house a group of prisoners suffering from the disease in the caves beneath his new Cornish home. Consumption has ravaged Louise Pinecroft’s family, leaving her and her father alone and heartbroken. ![]() ![]() Vishous is the direct, biological son of the Scribe Virgin, which has been more of a curse than a blessing. So to avoid another costly lesson, I’ll try to just stick to the facts. I could just rave about how beautiful he is, with his diamond hard heart, absolutely incredible intelligence (not to mention smart mouth), dominant sexuality and uncompromising masculinity, but that wouldn’t get us anywhere except teaching me yet again that my keyboard is not drool-proof (picture Homer Simpson around any non-vegetable based food).
