The Selkie Prince's Secret Baby
An alpha prince, required to find his fated mate, has already pledged his love to another. But there’s a problem... Prince Caol of the North has enjoyed a very active, carefree life. Being the youngest of five alpha-born princes, he hasn’t had a lot of responsibilities. As he watched his brothers find their fated mates and produce sons, he knew the time would come when he’d be forced to do the same.

Impossible Joyce
James Joyce's Finnegans Wake has repeatedly been declared to be entirely untranslatable. Nonetheless, it has been translated, transposed, or transcreated into a surprising variety of languages including complete renditions in French, German, Portuguese, Dutch, Japanese, and Korean, and partial renditions in Italian, Spanish, and a variety of other languages. Impossible Joyce explores the fascinating range of different approaches adopted by translators in coming to grips with Joyce's astonishing literary text. In this study, Patrick O'Neill builds on an approach first developed in his book Polyglot Joyce, but deepens his focus by considering Finnegans Wake exclusively. Venturing from Umberto Eco's assertion that the novel is a machine designed to generate as many meanings as possible for readers, he provides a sustained examination of the textual effects generated by comparative readings of translated excerpts. In doing so, O'Neill makes manifest the ways in which attempts to translate this extraordinary text have resulted in a cumulative extension of Finnegans Wake into an even more extraordinary macrotext encompassing and subsuming its collective renderings.
Hotshot
When a woman’s dream for the future turns into a nightmare, a handsome FBI agent makes her vulnerable to more than she ever imagined in this novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Julie Garwood. Peyton Lockhart and her sisters have just inherited Bishop’s Cove, a charming oceanfront resort. But it comes with a condition: They must run the resort for one year and show a profit—only then will they own it. Peyton welcomes the challenge, yet has no idea how many people want to sabotage her success—including her vindictive cousins and the powerful land developers who have an eye on the coveted beachfront property. But when the threats against Peyton escalate into dangerous territory, she enlists the help of her childhood friend, FBI agent Finn MacBain. Finn saved her life once before. Peyton has no choice but to trust him to do it again.
ESSERI
The Esseri are descendent from the old ones, a mythical race that existed long before the first settlements on The Continent. However, as tribes and settlements grew into great nations and concrete steam powered cities, so too did strife and political instability linger. From the great autocratic-capitalist jewel of the North to the breathtakingly wild, untethered lands of the south where the gifted Esseri reside. These conflicting cultures continue to grasp at the veil of calamity, forever surrounded by forces of good and evil, within and without. Inspired by elements of West-African Mythology, this saga follows the struggle of a new generation of Esseri in their fight for expression and cultural equality; whilst opposed by a rigid power structure dictating such an expression, to be a danger to a new world order.
