Affliction
Author: Laura Hall
Publisher: Simon and Schuster

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
In 1937, at the age of nineteen, Ralph Hall, suicidal, revealed his sexual orientation to his grandmother, knowing she would comfort him. He was out for three years afterwards, until an indiscretion sent him back into the closet. At twenty-four, while in the army, he met and married Irene. The couple made their home on the San Francisco Peninsula and had four children. Ralph was an attentive husband and father—albeit with an intense interest in interior design, flower arranging, and fine objects—and a diligent worker who rose to payroll accountant at Standard Oil. It wasn't until 1975 that Ralph came out to his middle daughter, Laura, telling her that he had once considered his sexuality an aberration, an affliction. She was shocked, as the possibility her father might be gay had never crossed her mind. Irene had known Ralph’s secret for eighteen years, but the two remained married until she died. It was only then that this charismatic man and devoted father, by now in his eighties, could freely express his authentic, gay self. Here, Laura paints a vivid and honest portrait of her beloved father and the effect his secret had on her own life.

Book Description
In a romantic triangle of good and bad, it's hard to tell who's good and who's bad. Step into the seductive world of Lizzy Ewing, a supernatural handler caught in a deliciously dangerous romance with two irresistible men: the alluring vampire, Nevi, and the ruggedly handsome Geoffrey. As the lines between good and bad blur, Lizzy must navigate the treacherous waters of desire and betrayal to uncover the truth about her lovers -- before it's too late. Will she succumb to the sweet whispers of temptation or stay true to her heart? Find out in this captivating tale of love, lust, and danger. A Recipient of the Reader's Favorite Award, "The Vampire, The Handler, and Me" received the following 5 star review Reviewed by Rosie Malezer for Readers’ Favorite "The Vampire, The Handler, And Me is a paranormal novel by Eileen Sheehan. After attending a New Year party, 24-year-old Lizzie Ewing vomits after a night of heavy drinking. She meets charming Nevi Sharpe at a service station, and instantly he is enamored with her. Lizzie then attends a family dinner where she meets Geoffrey Jenkins, who becomes obsessed with her. After Geoffrey learns that Lizzie plans to date Nevi, he tells her that Nevi is an evil vampire. Defiant, Lizzie commences dating Nevi, who treats her like his queen. But Nevi's daughter, Sasha, attempts to kill her, leading to an emergency blood transfusion, courtesy of her lover. Now filled with vampire blood, Lizzie discovers significant changes in her senses as she mourns the loss of her suddenly deceased housemate, Frank. Lizzie also discovers she is pregnant and is thrilled by the news, but Nevi rejects her as he is convinced he cannot procreate with humans. Finally, when Nevi storms out and fails to return, Lizzie turns to Geoffrey for comfort and agrees to marry him until she learns what horrors a man obsessed truly is capable of. I love a good paranormal romance, and Eileen Sheehan has provided just that. Nothing beats a creative love triangle like the one in The Vampire, The Handler, And Me. Throughout the story, I was waiting for Nevi to cross the line while expecting Geoffrey to come to the rescue at just the right moment. The steadfast love narrative is refreshing. As the pieces of the story all finally connected, my heart gave a standing ovation at the cleverness and brilliant writing produced by Sheehan. The twist at the end is shocking and amazing simultaneously, but I was expecting no less by that stage and am still smiling at the adventure it took me through. I recommend this well-written tale to all fans of a beautiful love story filled with suspense, twists, and turns. A very well-thought-out and extremely addictive storyline. I look forward to reading more from Sheehan in the future."

ISBN:
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 514
Book Description
A bookworm from New York studying abroad in Athens discovers that everything fictional is actually true, and her obsession with books is replaced by another, more dangerous one. Yes. The city of Athens has secrets. Her host family calls them "tramps." In Greek, they are called vrykolakas, or "vryks," which sometimes gets translated to "freaks." They are the vampires of Athens, created centuries ago by the Maenads. They live in caves beneath the acropolis without economic resources and according to rules imposed on them by the Olympians. First and foremost, they are forbidden from turning humans into vampires. The human will not turn unless all of the blood is drained, so a vampire is allowed to drink up to one pint per month from a willing mortal. Some mortals are willing because a vampire bite will infect the body for six hours, and during that time, the mortal has the powers of the vampire: flight, invisibility, strength, speed, x-ray vision, and mind control. Such great power can become irresistible, though dangerous and addicting to mortals... As Gertie uncovers the unfathomable secrets of this ancient city, she is drawn to the beauty and deep thoughts of a boy she first met on the bus into Athens--Jeno. Her host family and another boy she later learns is a demigod warn her to stay away from him, but her curiosity gets the best of her and she unwittingly becomes a catalyst in an uprising led by Dionysus, the god of wine and lord of the vampires. "An epic take on vampires and Greek mythology"--Goodreads Reviewer ★★★★★ "Had me from the first sentence to the very last word! I’m so happy to know the author is keeping the series going! I was so bummed when I was done. I just wanted more! But this is seriously is my top 5 of favorite vampire series! I seriously couldn’t put this down!
