Book Description
Our marriage is fake. But our feelings are dangerously real… Marrying playboy billionaire Darren Walker was only ever supposed to be a business deal. If only it were that easy. I’m finding it far too comfortable living in Darren’s world, and I never predicted I’d find real meaning in the charity I’m involved with while I pretend to be the perfect wife. The worst thing is, I’m scared Darren’s feelings for me are becoming real, too. But a woman with a past like mine doesn’t belong in a world like his. Especially because I thought my heart belonged to someone else before we were married. Someone much too close to him. When Darren decides to leave his playboy ways behind and follow in his father’s footsteps, I must face reality. A marriage like ours won’t last forever. Not when my former life has the power to come back to haunt me. There’s no way Darren’s reputation will survive the scandal of being married to a former escort. And if I let myself get any deeper, neither will my heart… Queen of Ruin is the second book in The Kingmaker trilogy, a steamy marriage of convenience romance full of political scandal. The books must be read in order for the best reader experience. This book does end in a cliffhanger.

Book Description
A steamy, age gap, rockstar romance with a bit of a slow burn, a strong sassy heroine, a grumpy alpha hero, low angst, and a happily ever after. Love has a way of blazing through you like poison, leaving you breathless but still wanting more. On the way down it burns like whiskey, coats your throat like a love song, and enters your belly with the force of a hurricane. I told myself never again. I thought I had put those ghosts behind me, but some secrets don’t stay buried forever. Fate has a way of forcing you to face them, and Sasha was the curveball I never saw coming. I didn’t want to fall for her. In fact, I was determined not to, but she danced her way into my heart with her pink glittered Converse, and the sweet taste of peppermint. She’s way too young, and chasing something I can’t give her, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting her. If I give into how I feel, will we last the summer, or are we bound to burn? Bound To Burn is the 4th book in the Blood & Bone series but can be read as a standalone, although the books should be read in order, for the best reader experience.

Ellara Wist, one of the many witches that fought on the losing side of the war, has no intentions of returning to Outerland when it is finished and she has no intention of letting her fellow witches suffer either. So, during her sentencing for war crimes against the kingdom of Aulen, she boldly offers their new king a proposal: she'll join the king's court as his own personal sorceress in exchange for the lives and freedom of those trapped in Outerland. The King Needs a Wife. Terran didn't want to be king. But after years of war and the loss of almost his entire family, he will not put the crown aside. But when a witch from his past offers herself as a sacrifice, he sees her as an equal. So, he instead counters her offer with one of his own: Don't be my sorceress. Be my Queen. And the deal they strike will change their world forever. Desperate, Ellara agrees, swearing to herself that she could never love him. But as time reveals the man she's married not as the monster everyone thought he was and danger draws them closer together, she finds her vow almost impossible to keep.

Book Description
This fascinating book is the first volume in a projected cultural history of the United States, from the earliest English settlements to our own time. It is a history of American folkways as they have changed through time, and it argues a thesis about the importance for the United States of having been British in its cultural origins. While most people in the United States today have no British ancestors, they have assimilated regional cultures which were created by British colonists, even while preserving ethnic identities at the same time. In this sense, nearly all Americans are "Albion's Seed," no matter what their ethnicity may be. The concluding section of this remarkable book explores the ways that regional cultures have continued to dominate national politics from 1789 to 1988, and still help to shape attitudes toward education, government, gender, and violence, on which differences between American regions are greater than between European nations.
