Book Description
Jessica is the quintessential 1920s wealthy bad girl from Montana with a penchant for running away from home if things don't go her way. As her brother's wedding to the sugary sweet Chastity nears, Jessica grows stir-crazy yet again. This time, however, fleeing south to Wyoming turns out to be much more dangerous than she ever could have predicted. When her brother hires skilled tracker Sleeping Fox to find her and bring her home, her life is forever changed. Sleeping Fox is a man between worlds--half Blackfoot, with a white mother. Orphaned to the Indian School as a child, he grows up with a chip on his shoulder as wide as the Montana sky. A quiet man, the one thing he is known for in the small town of Wedlock is his skill as a tracker. When the wealthy rancher hires him to find his missing sister, Sleeping Fox bargains for a share of his tribe's ancestral homeland--but ends up with much more in the end. This is the long-awaited second book in the Montana Brides series, but can be read as a stand-alone adventure romance. Through the Rocky Mountains, the rodeo circuit, brushes with Prohibition era gangsters, Russian fur traders, and wild wolves, follow the adventure of a lifetime for two star-crossed lovers from the same town, but different worlds. "The characters were well-developed and it made me want to care about them and the outcome of each adventure or situation. The complexities of each hurdle developed the characters as in real life. I could related to the practical realities as their love evolved.These get me interested in the other book. If you are a fan of Where the Lost Wander, try this one too," ~Reviewer Annacroft "The story was interesting and the main characters were intriguing. This wasn't just your typical romance novel. Elements thrown into the book were diverse and not your average romance story. The author took time to build the scenes and the plot. Overall, a great book!"~ Reviewer Skyler N. Readers of Montana Brides say: "The Rancher Takes a Wife by Leslea Tash gives me hope that there are good people still out there in this world." ~Amazon reviewer Mom of 4 "Never a bored moment, great storyline, great dialogues and great characters--even the nasty ones." ~Reviewer Angeline M.

An Honest Woman
Author: Charlotte Shane
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982126868
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
Through the lens of her years spent as a sex worker, Charlotte Shane offers a provocative and tender reckoning of what it means to be a heterosexual woman and a feminist in a misogynistic society. In her early twenties, Charlotte Shane quit her women’s studies graduate program to devote herself to sex work because it was a way to devote herself to men. Her lifelong curiosity about male lust, love, selfishness, and social capital dovetailed with her own insatiable desire for intimacy to sustain a long career in escorting, with unexpectedly poignant results. Shane uses her personal and professional history to examine how men and women struggle in their attempts at romantic and sexual bonding, no matter how true their intentions. As she takes stock of her relationships—with clients, with her father, with friends, with married men, and later, with her own husband—she tells a candid and haunting tale of love, marriage, and (in)fidelity, as seen through the eyes of the perpetual “other woman.” Braiding the personal and the universal, Shane’s memoir is a merciless and moving love letter to straight men and an indictment of habitual dishonesty, a condemnation of every social constraint acting on heterosexual unions, and a hopeful affirmation of the possibility for true connection between men and women.

Pages : 324
Book Description
"You can become irresistibly attractive to women without changing who you are." So says Mark Manson, superstar blogger and author of the international bestseller, The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck, a self help book that packs a punch. Mark brings the same approach to teaching men what they need to know about attracting women. In Models he shows us how much it sucks trying to attract women using the tricks and tactics recommended by other books. Instead, he says, men need to focus on seduction as an emotional process not a physical or social one. What matters is the intention, the motivation, the authenticity. To improve your dating life you must improve your emotional life - how you feel about yourself and how you express yourself to others. Funny, irreverent and confronting, Models is a mature and honest guide on how a man can attract women by giving up the bullsh*t and becoming an honest broker. "A detailed guide to modern sexual ethics" Sydney Morning Herald "There's nothing subtle about Mark Manson. He's crude and vulgar and doesn't give a f*ck . . . He's as painfully honest as he is outrageously funny" Huffington Post

Caravaggio

Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
Caravaggio was on a defiant mission to change the art world. Before him, there were pastel-colored idealized visions, polite paintings for a polite society. After him, there were slews of imitators, trying to grasp his brilliant slashes of light and dark, his people who looked more like your neighbor than a model of perfection. Bold with his brush, the young rebel was equally brash in his life, picking fights and getting arrested for things as silly as throwing a plate of artichokes in a waiter's face. Until he faced the ultimate punishment, condemned for a murder he didn't commit—at least not intentionally.
