Book Description
An animal rights activist is about to get a crash course in werewolves. One she may not survive. Lone Irish werewolf Declan O’Connell has lost everything—his family, his clan, even his freedom—to his arch-rival, Nathan Epoc. The head of an underground werewolf clan and a brilliant scientist, Epoc plans to use Declan to create a super-wolf, a creature capable of shifting the balance of power in the lycanthrope world. But Epoc’s plans are about to be thwarted. Regan Thomas, a determined animal rights activist, rescues what she thinks is an ordinary wolf from his notorious animal testing facility in Sydney, Australia. She gets more than she bargained for when the wolf turns into an extremely hunky, extremely naked man who immediately drags her into a world where the clash between two opposing werewolf clans could spell the end of humankind. Declan has survived without a clan for more years than he cares to remember, but sexy Regan stirs up all his fierce, alpha-wolf instincts. Now Declan has one last chance at revenge. But can he keep Regan alive, and resist the overwhelming attraction between them, long enough to stop Epoc? Summer in Australia has never been this hot… or this dangerous.

Book Description
Powerful Ring-Witches, Mayra and Wolfe have fled their kingdom with the dragons they rescued, accompanied by their witch-warrior friends. But once they reach the dragon’s icy homeland, they find an empty Aerie. Where are the female dragons and their younglings? Barely do the witches have time to rest before they are winging their way to rescue the stolen dragons. But the dragons are keeping a secret from Mayra and Wolfe, and the witches quickly find themselves trapped in a vast system of caverns with Hagan, an evil, fanatical dragon. Having found a powerful talisman so horrifying that Mayra can scarcely believe it, Hagan knows he has the upper claw, and Mayra is running out of time. The female dragons and their tiny offspring will be killed unless Mayra permits Hagan to collect his terrible treasure from its hiding place. But if she doesn’t wrest the talisman from Hagan before he can use it, he will take control of all the dragons. Can Mayra and Wolfe rescue the dragons—large and small—and find the talisman before all that the mighty dragons hold dearest to them is destroyed? Mayra and Wolfe once battled with dragons at their sides and easily won against humans. But they know the tides have turned; Hagan is a wielder of dark dragon magic. And he dares the humans to battle him—the most savagely horrific dragon ever hatched—a dragon that even other dragons fear.

Pages : 345
Book Description
The wartime double agent with a transmitter in his cell to contact suffragettes; the doctor hanged as he smiled to the farewells of lovers on the scaffold; the con who defied a gangland godfather and escaped the bromide in the prison tea; aristocrats and arsonists...The screws who guard Britain's prisons have seen them all. Stir! is the story of six of the country's most notorious jails - Durham, Wandsworth, Pentonville, Wormwood Scrubs, Dartmoor and Holloway - and of the men and women who entered their gates, sometimes stood on their scaffolds and occasionally vanished before their time. The book looks at early punishments, life on hell ships transporting convicts to far-off continents, the growth of prison populations, inmates sentenced to waste away on treadmills, the underworld giant who was birched, children starved and beaten for stealing, and even women forced to eat. Also investigated are the lives and thoughts of scores of inmates, from Oscar Wilde to Oswald Mosley; from Dr Crippen to Ruth Ellis, the last woman hanged; from underworld legend Frankie Fraser to a Rolling Stone; and even the man who shot Martin Luther King, Jr.Just like Ronnie Barker's Porridge series, there are laughs too, as we uncover the man who measured bathwater, the prisoners punished for not wearing a collar and tie, the jail bookie who paid out in bread, and the unlucky brewers. The mix is all there in Stir!
