Book Description
The National Book Award–winning history of American finance by the renowned biographer and author of Hamilton: “A tour de force” (New York Times Book Review). The House of Morgan is a panoramic story of four generations in the powerful Morgan family and their secretive firms that would transform the modern financial world. Tracing the trajectory of J. P. Morgan’s empire from its obscure beginnings in Victorian London to the financial crisis of 1987, acclaimed author Ron Chernow paints a fascinating portrait of the family’s private saga and the rarefied world of the American and British elite in which they moved—a world that included Charles Lindbergh, Henry Ford, Franklin Roosevelt, Nancy Astor, and Winston Churchill. A masterpiece of financial history—it was awarded the 1990 National Book Award for Nonfiction and selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 Best Nonfiction Books of the Twentieth Century—The House of Morgan is a compelling account of a remarkable institution and the men who ran it. It is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the money and power behind the major historical events of the last 150 years.

Book Description
“THE SORCERER’S RING has all the ingredients for an instant success: plots, counterplots, mystery, valiant knights, and blossoming relationships replete with broken hearts, deception and betrayal. It will keep you entertained for hours, and will satisfy all ages. Recommended for the permanent library of all fantasy readers.”--Books and Movie Reviews. This bundle includes the first two books in Morgan Rice’s #1 Bestselling fantasy series THE SORCERER’S RING (A QUEST OF HEROES and A MARCH OF KINGS), a 17 book epic fantasy series with over 1,000 five star reviews. These two bestselling novels are both here in one convenient file. It is a great introduction to the SORCERER’S RING series and it also makes the perfect gift! A QUEST OF HEROES (BOOK #1 IN THE SORCERER’S RING) revolves around the epic coming of age story of one special boy, a 14 year old from a small village on the outskirts of the Kingdom of the Ring. The youngest of four, the least favorite of his father, hated by his brothers, Thorgrin senses he is different from the others. He dreams of becoming a great warrior, of joining the King’s men and protecting the Ring from the hordes of creatures on the other side of the Canyon. When he comes of age and is forbidden by his father to try out for the King’s Legion, he refuses to take no for an answer: he journeys out on his own, determined to force his way into King’s Court and be taken seriously. But King’s Court is rife with its own family dramas, power struggles, ambitions, jealousy, violence and betrayal. King MacGil must choose an heir from amongst his children, and the ancient Dynasty Sword, the source of all their power, still sits untouched, waiting for the chosen one to arrive. Thorgrin arrives as an outsider and battles to be accepted, and to join the King’s Legion. Thorgrin comes to learn he has mysterious powers he does not understand, that he has a special gift, and a special destiny. Against all odds he falls in love with the king’s daughter, and as their forbidden relationship blossoms, he discovers he has powerful rivals. As he struggles to make sense of his powers, the king’s sorcerer takes him under his wing and tells him of a mother he never knew, in a land far away, beyond the Canyon, beyond even the land of the Dragons. Before Thorgrin can venture out and become the warrior he yearns to be, he must complete his training. But this may be cut short, as he finds himself propelled into the center of royal plots and counterplots, ones that may threaten his love and bring him down—and the entire kingdom with him. With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, A QUEST OF HEROES is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and dragons, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal. It is a tale of honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery. It is a fantasy that brings us into a world we will never forget, and which will appeal to all ages and genders. It is 82,000 words.

Book Description
The love stories continue in this box set of steamy small-town romances, featuring exes who become neighbors only to discover their story is just beginning and an event planner who won’t take no for an answer from the grumpy recluse who stands in the way of her pulling off the perfect wedding. All Because I Loved You Their love was epic, but it didn't last. Nolan Parker left his small town broken-hearted after the love of his life publicly humiliated him on a local radio show when she tried to catch him cheating. Except he wasn’t cheating. He was working overtime to pay for a ring. Three years later, after a fallout with his boss, he heads back to Morgan’s Bay to figure out his next steps. Isla Garrick’s late grandma left Isla her house. What on earth was she thinking? Isla didn’t know the first thing about being a homeowner, but she was determined not to let her grandma down. When a new tenant moves into the rental next door, she decides to be neighborly and bring freshly baked brownies over. Never did she think the love of her life who took her heart when he moved away would answer the door. Stuck living next to each other, the steamy chemistry that brought them together flares to life, making it impossible to ignore. Now they have to face their past or risk old insecurities destroying their chance at a happy ending. This second chance romance is the newest installment in Theresa Paolo’s Morgan’s Bay series that will tug at your heartstrings. All Because I Found You He never believed in fairytales until she knocked on his door. There isn’t a hurdle Raelyn Shaw, Morgan’s Bay’s party planner extraordinaire, can’t overcome. So, when a hurricane destroys her client’s venue, she is determined to find the perfect replacement. The old barn catches her eye, but when she knocks on the owner’s door, the last person she expects to see is her high school crush who went MIA a decade ago. Ryder Douglas became somewhat of a recluse after an accident took both of his parent’s lives. After all, he was the one behind the wheel. The scar on his face is a constant reminder of that awful night, and one of the reasons he stays hidden away. Nobody wants to be reminded of the tragedy that struck their small town. He’s content with his life until a perky brunette brings light and laughter to his doorstep. While Ryder helps Raelyn turn the barn into a magical setting, he wrestles with the guilt that’s consumed him for years and starts to question if he’s the monster he’s made himself believe he is. Maybe it’s possible for his broken heart to not only heal but to let someone else in. All Because I Found You is the fourth book in the Morgan’s Bay series, but each of these steamy small-town romances can be enjoyed as a standalone.
