Book Description
New, REWRITTEN edition of the bestselling romcom, Unfriended: A Geek and Stud Romance Asher I always thought Charis Sloane would remain my best friend into infinity. For years we've debated philosophy together, laughed, played games, played ball. I hardly even notice the fact that she's female and I'm male. I mean, I do. But I try not to. I'm perfectly happy with my stormy, glitzy girlfriend across campus. Or at least, I tell myself I should be. Until I get the news. Sloane has gotten herself engaged. To be married. To some mysterious fiancé she refuses to name. And in the blink of an eye, everything changes. No longer can I see Sloane as just a friend. The platonic shutter has come up for good. Now I'm racing against time to convince my best friend that going through with this crazy wedding would be a colossal mistake. For the first time ever, I'm afraid my cocky charm, my iron abs and my famous "magic hands" won't land me what and who I want. The one I have this sneaking feeling I should have been with all along.... Sloane Asher - the cockiest guy on the college campus, the one who put the "stud" in student - is suddenly single. I've known Ash since way back before he got all those muscles. I know what he hides behind that brash exterior. He isn't only drop-dead gorgeous, he's loyal, funny, and smart. How can I help but harbor a secret crush? Alas, it was never happening. To his mind, I'm a buddy, "one of the dudes." Someone to shoot hoops with, debate with, never lock lips with. That being the case, I saw no reason not to accept a proposal of marriage that came my way. I assumed my best friend would be pleased. Yet he's not taking it well at all. Too, he seems to have developed an inexplicable interest in tracking my every move. His eyes have gone heated and smoky. I can only think his recent breakup has traumatized him to the point of brain damage. Somehow I have to resist the temptation to believe the signs. To believe his promises. Resist his charm, his determination... And those damn magic hands. A high-heat standalone friends-to-lovers romcom. No cheating or cliffhanger. Dear Reader, Times change, and so do authors. In a major way! The voices of my readers inspired me to rework my original story, Unfriended: A Geek and Stud Romance. Here's a rundown of what's changed. ASHER: He's still cocky, but with softer edges. SMOOTHING: The book has gone through a big edit and sweeping revision. BONUS OUTTAKES: For kicks, I've tossed in a selection of deleted scenes and previously-unpublished snippets and outtakes. FLASHBACKS: Some of the chapter-opening flashbacks got moved to bonus outtakes. Others kept their role in the evolving story. WORD COUNT: The length itself didn't change much. It went from about 91,000 to 92,000 words plus 2,500 of bonus content. I hope this version gives you all the giggles, swoons, and feels of the original, and more! Love, Deana

Book Description
People die. Secrets don’t. Sam Hutchings was looking for a writing muse. She hoped that the family cabin at Bird Lake would spark her keyboard, a fire that had been smothered by self-loathing, cheap wine, and her daughter Meg’s summer vacation. An innocent stroll down memory lane begins to unravel the story Sam had heard about her father: What did he do for a living? How did he actually die? Those who know the truth are nearer than she imagines, and protecting their secrets is worth killing for. As the old family stories begin to disintegrate, can Sam and Meg figure out the actual story? And can they uncover the dangerous plot by ex-U.S. military men — before it’s too late?

Book Description
In Discorrelated Images Shane Denson examines how computer-generated digital images displace and transform the traditional spatial and temporal relationships that viewers had with conventional analog forms of cinema. Denson analyzes works ranging from the Transformers series and Blade Runner 2049 to videogames and multimedia installations to show how what he calls discorrelated images—images that do not correlate with the abilities and limits of human perception—produce new subjectivities, affects, and potentials for perception and action. Denson's theorization suggests that new media theory and its focus on technological development must now be inseparable from film and cinema theory. There's more at stake in understanding discorrelated images, Denson contends, than just a reshaping of cinema, the development of new technical imaging processes, and the evolution of film and media studies: discorrelated images herald a transformation of subjectivity itself and are essential to our ability to comprehend nonhuman agency.

Book Description
Although William Shakespeare is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language, he traditionally receives little notice in studies of children's literature. However, there is a fascinating relationship between Shakespeare and children's interests, and the Bard's works have been successfully adapted for children's use over several centuries. This book continues and parallels the author's previous study, Chaucer as Children's Literature, as part of a greater endeavor to evaluate the significance of traditional literature retold as children's literature in modern English studies. It examines the ways in which William Shakespeare's stories have been adapted for children, particularly in Mary and Charles Lamb's Tales from Shakespeare, which was almost immediately recognized as a classic of children's literature when it was first published in 1807. The author describes the significance of the Lamb's Tales as the pre-eminent children's adaptation of Shakespeare's literature, focusing particularly on the lavishly illustrated Edwardian editions which used pictures to convey Shakespeare's stories for children. Other topics include Victorian alternatives to the Lambs' stories, including anthologies from David Murray Smith, Abby Sage Richardson, and Mary Seymour; the lavish illustrations of Shakespeare's stories found in antique English textbooks; Shakespeare in nursery books, including sophisticated collections from Mary Macleod, Thomas Carter, Alice S. Hoffman, and other noted authors; and Shakespeare in multi-volume American collections, including The Children's Hour, Journeys through Bookland, and The Junior Classics.

Book Description
Shakespeare's 400-year-old language can be tough to understand...but, with Shakespeare Retold, it's easy! Written line-by-line in the same iambic pentameter versification of the originals, it offers a contemporary interpretation of the Bard's lines in the same form and pacing that everyone can understand. Quickly learn each character motive, each plot twist, each convoluted phrase, each befuddling reference. Never get stuck on Shakespeare's language again! A perfect guide for actors, students, and the curious, Shakespeare Retold breathes new life into the most intoxicating, beguiling and often frustrating words in the English language. If music be the food of love, play on; If music is the fuel of love, play on! Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting, Play tunes aplenty till I’ve heard too much, The appetite may sicken, and so die. And then these pangs will pale and fade away. That strain again! it had a dying fall. Play that refrain again; I found it haunting. PRAISE FOR SHAKESPEARE RETOLD "Schools and colleges will stamp and cheer with unrestrained gratitude and delight." – STEPHEN FRY “Tackling Hamlet for The Royal Shakespeare Company is arguably the most daunting role for any actor. For me, learning the words was the easy part; interpreting the nuances of the language and breathing life into the performance was brutally tough. James Anthony’s Shakespeare, Retold would have helped me immensely. For every line, I’d have had a lyrically identical modern-day translation that I precisely understood, helping reveal the emphasis and punch of each moment of my stage performance. Every actor would benefit from this compelling translation.” – PAAPA ESSIEDU
