Sometimes a lady needs a hero who is willing to break the rules in order to save her. Sophia Babineaux has landed a husband! And a good one at that! Lord Harold, the second son of a duke, is kind, gentle, undemanding. Perhaps a little too undemanding? Because after one chance encounter with skilled rake, Captain Devlin Brooks, it is glaringly obvious that something is missing between Lord Harold and herself… passion… sizzle… well… everything. And marriage is forever! Will her parents allow her to reconsider? Absolutely not. War hero, Devlin Brookes, is ready to marry and thinks Sophia Babineaux might be the one. One itsy bitsy problem: she’s engaged to his cousin, Harold. But Devlin knows the truth about his cousin and damned if Harold hasn’t been coerced into this betrothal by his manipulative father, the Duke of Prescott—a man who always gets what he wants. Devlin, Sophia and Harold conspire to thwart the duke’s wishes but fail to consider a few vital, unintended consequences. Will fate step aside for these two soulmates, or will it punish them forever for daring to claim their happily ever after? An epic romance for two people willing to go through hell for one another... in a hand basket, of course. To Hell in a Hand Basket is Book 2 in Annabelle Anders’ wildly popular Devilish Debutantes’ Series.

Author: Ruthie Blum
Publisher: Rvp Press
ISBN: 9781618613332
Category : Arab Spring, 2010-
Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
To Hell in a Handbasket is a chilling account of how Jimmy Carter s abandonment of a longtime U.S. ally in favor of a murderous mullah thirty years ago enabled the Islamization of Iran and how Barack Obama s current oblivion to and appeasement of the radical Muslim world are helping to Islamize the rest of the Middle East. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Ruthie Blum, who immigrated to Israel from the United States in 1977, was a columnist, interviewer, and senior editor at The Jerusalem Post for two decades. She blogs for Israel Hayom. PRAISE: Whether Barack Obama is another Jimmy Carter is unfortunately not just academic speculation. Carter was bad enough, especially in the Middle East, but Obama is close on his heels. A second Obama term could well bring a nuclear Iran, a militantly anti-Israeli Egypt, and the overthrow of the pro-American Arab monarchies. The United States needs to wake up to what is happening, and Ruthie Blum s book is just the ticket. Let s hope she doesn t have to write a sequel. John Bolton Former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations The esteemed writer and commentator Ruthie Blum has produced a timely and essential account of President Obama s betrayal of a longtime U.S. ally, former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, and its consequences for America s vital national-security interests. Just as important, by placing Obama s mishandling of the current pan-Arab populist wave against the backdrop of then-president Jimmy Carter s betrayal of longtime U.S. ally the shah of Iran, Blum demonstrates the timeless truth of George Santayana s lament that those who fail to learn from the mistakes of their predecessors are destined to repeat them.

They say the road to hell is paved in good intentions, and Rose Gardner can’t shake the notion she’s headed there in a handbasket. She feels responsible for the death of a woman she tried—and failed—to save with her visions, and though she intends to do the “right” thing and tell James Malcolm she can’t possibly accept his offer of a relationship, she hasn’t yet mustered the strength. Worst of all, her sister is terminally ill, and there isn’t a thing she can do to save her. When a new case falls into Rose’s lap, she eagerly shifts her attention to someone else’s problems—except it’s Henryetta, and every person, and problem, is somehow connected.

See no evil. Hear no evil. Speak no evil. Sleep with no evil... If only it were that easy. Between being kidnapped by a psycho dragon-shifter, influenced by ancient relics, and fighting for my freedom, I'd say my hands are full. But really, my troubles have just begun. Cain, Dorian, and Elias are wickedly dangerous, scorching hot, and all too tempting. They're devils in disguise. Literally. I don't know why they're collecting these relics, but it looks like I'm not the only one with secrets. Despite all the risks, I might be falling for the three of them. But there's a good chance this Hellish relationship ends up being the death of me. To make matters worse, there may be something more to my shadow than I originally thought. Something evil that's set on taking over me entirely if I let it. With each passing day, I find myself falling deeper into its darkness and further under the demons' deadly charms. There's no other way around it... Things are quickly going to Hell in a handbasket.

Book Description
FORBIDDEN LOVE Cecily Nottingham has made a huge mistake. The marriage bed was still warm when the earl she thought she loved crawled out of it and announced that he loved someone else. Loves—someone else. Cecily was nothing more than a means to an end, that end being her dowry. With nothing to lose, in an attempt to goad the earl into divorcing her, Cecily sets out to seduce her husband’s cousin, Mr. Nottingham. Little does she realize that he is everything her husband is not: honorable, loyal, trustworthy. Handsome as sin. Stephen Nottingham returned to England for one reason—to save his cousin’s estate from financial ruin. Instead, he finds himself tempted by his cousins beautiful and scorned countess. He isn’t sure what to do first, strangle his cousin, or kiss the cad’s wife. As the tangle unravels, his honor is put to the test, right along with his self-control. Amid snakes, duels, and a good catfight, Cecily realizes the game she’s playing has high stakes indeed. There are only a few ways for a marriage to end in Regency England, and none of them come without a high price. Is she willing to pay it? Is Stephen? A ‘Happily Ever After’ hangs in the balance, because, yes, love can conquer all, but sometimes it needs a little bit of help. Hell Hath No Fury is Book 1 in Annabell Anders’ wildly popular Devilish Debutantes Series.
