Isaac’s temper isn’t the only thing about him that’s hot.
My new boss is going to be trouble.
I’m the new nanny. I’m here to take care of his daughter, not get caught up in the drama with his ex or, worse, fall for him.

Because he’s gorgeous, sexy, ferocious in the most incredible way.
He’s rude and demanding, except when it comes to his little girl.
He’s so kind and loving with Ivy. It melts my heart the same way his amazing body nearly melts my panties right off. His daughter needs me, so it’s Ivy who keeps me there when Isaac is unreasonable.

He’s even starting to let me in, to let me see the real him, the strong and powerful man who is so afraid to risk falling in love again.

I know I shouldn’t get involved with my boss. But I just can’t help myself. He’s irresistible. I can see through his temper, his anger—he needs me.

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749-1832) was Germany’s greatest literary figure.

Poet, playwright, novelist, scientist, statesman, theatre director, critic, and amateur artist, Goethe was the central and unsurpassed representative of the Romantic movement.

Goethe’s education was irregular; he went to no school, and his father stimulated rather than instructed him. But the atmosphere in which he was surrounded gave him, perhaps, the best education he could have received.

His home was a cultivated one. From his father he derived the steadfastness of character which enabled him to pursue an independent career of self-culture and devotion to art; from his mother he inherited the flow of language and love of narration, without which he could not have been a poet.

By the age of eight he had a grasp of Greek, Latin, French, and Italian and at sixteen he went to Leipzig University to study law.

Already a successful playwright, at the age of 25 the publication of his novel ‘The Sorrows of Young Werther’ brought him world-wide success, and cemented his literary career.

His masterpiece, ‘Faust’, still one of the most famous works of European literature, became a life-long project. Starting work on it at the age of twenty-three, it wasn’t ready for publication until after his death.

Oscar Browning’s classic biography explores Goethe’s fascinating life, using biographical details to analyse his literature. This short biography is the perfect starting point for anybody interested in Goethe’s life and works.

Oscar Browning (1837 –1923) was an English writer, historian, and educational reformer. His greatest achievement was the cofounding, along with Henry Sidgwick, of the Cambridge University Day Training College in 1891. This was one of the earliest institutions in Great Britain to focus on the training of educators, preempted only by the founding of the Cambridge Teaching College for Women by Elizabeth Hughes in 1885.

Afterlife management is a tricky business, especially for a living soul broker.

Juggling normal life with her otherworldly responsibilities—like helping departed souls cross to the other side while collecting grief from the living through her empathetic connection—just got a whole lot more complicated for Vivian Bedford. Her guardian spirit bosses, who make the mafia look tame, don’t like the side jobs she’s been taking to help living souls in peril.

But they don’t know the half of it.

She’s been working in secret with Lazarus Darkmore, a grim reaper and unlikely ally against the guardians’ hold on her. When a rogue guardian sends an ominous message that threatens to expose the alliance unless she stops, she has no choice but to put her trust in the reaper. But can a creature as dark and terrifying as Darkmore keep her safe, or will his appetite for cruelty and terror be her undoing?

With a spirit world energy crisis looming and guardian spirits closing in, Vivian must choose—toe the line with the guardians, plunge into darkness with the reaper, or join a rebellion that could unleash hell on earth.

Once upon a time, in a land far, far away…well, Scotland…Rose lived tucked away from the world with her aunt. Orphaned as a baby and adopted by her aunt, she’s used to her eccentric ways—including her overprotectiveness. But Rose wants more from life. However, she never quite expected for Laird Hamish McTavish—complete with kilt—to change things. The brash, and admittedly braw, man is hardly like the charming men Rose has been dreaming of.
Freshly returned from the battlefield with an unexpected inheritance, highlander Hamish is struggling enough to fit in at the sleepy lowland village. When he comes across a feisty young woman with wild hair and a brash tongue on his land, he doesn’t expect it to lead to more than a five-minute argument.
But he cannot help himself. His curiosity is piqued. Who is this young woman surrounded by three slightly-crazed elderly women seemingly intent on keeping her from the world? He must find out more.
Unfortunately, there are several people more than willing to get in the way of that aim. Rose’s aunt for one—not to mention his late-cousin’s mistress who is determined to replace one cousin with the other. Not only must Hamish deal with his duties and find a way to get close to Rose, he must also find a way to get rid of this abhorrent woman…before she does anything truly evil.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

BASED ON THE INCREDIBLE GRADUATION SPEECH WITH OVER 10 MILLION VIEWS ON YOUTUBE

If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed.

On May 17, 2014, Admiral William H. McRaven addressed the graduating class of the University of Texas at Austin on their Commencement day. Taking inspiration from the university's slogan, "What starts here changes the world," he shared the ten principles he learned during Navy Seal training that helped him overcome challenges not only in his training and long Naval career, but also throughout his life; and he explained how anyone can use these basic lessons to change themselves-and the world-for the better.

Admiral McRaven's original speech went viral with over 10 million views. Building on the core tenets laid out in his speech, McRaven now recounts tales from his own life and from those of people he encountered during his military service who dealt with hardship and made tough decisions with determination, compassion, honor, and courage. Told with great humility and optimism, this timeless book provides simple wisdom, practical advice, and words of encouragement that will inspire readers to achieve more, even in life's darkest moments.

PRAISE FOR MAKE YOUR BED
"Should be read by every leader in America...a book to inspire your children and grandchildren to become everything that they can." --Wall Street Journal

"Powerful." --USA Today

"Full of captivating personal anecdotes from inside the national security vault." --Washington Post

"Superb, smart, and succinct." --Forbes

‘BONAPARTISM stands to Napoleon in the somewhat peculiar relation in which most religions stand to their founder. The picturesque imagination of innumerable ironists has exhausted itself in speculations upon the probable feelings of various divine and semi-divine teachers when confronted with the full glories of their own shrines. But it may be doubted whether the sensations of the central personage at Kamakura or St. Peter’s would bear comparison for irony with the thoughts which must rise in that little white-breeched, green-uniformed figure, fresh from a bath of ambrosial eau-de-Cologne prepared by an Elysian Constant, as he studies the externals of his career on the painted canvas of Meissonier or spells out his political message from the printed page of M. Paul de Cassagnac…’

The Second Empire, originally published in 1922, is one of Philip Guedalla’s earlier works. It aims to shine new light on the life of Napoleon III, whose career gradually become ever more mysteriously shrouded, obscured by the ‘martyrology’ of the Napoleonic myth. The Second Empire scrapes away at the palimpsest of voices, from the ‘romantics, sentimentalists, and the reactionaries’, that have added their distortions to the true and original story of Napoleon III. This volume is a fascinating treatment of one France’s most famed historical figures, bringing together a rich array of sources from personal correspondences, popular contemporary verse, and even quasi-religious chants commonly heard in the streets of France that upheld Napoleon as a miraculous and legendary leader. Coupled with Guedalla’s articulate and intellectual prose, The Second Empire presents a vivid, captivating, and scholarly biography that charts Napoleon’s evolution from Prince, to President, to Emperor.

Philip Guedalla was a prolific and popular biographer and historical and travel writer. With over 30 published works, including collections of essays and edited collections of the private letters of historical figures, Guedalla’s oeuvre covers an impressively vast range of subjects from Napoleon and Palestine, If the Moors in Spain had Won, to The Jewish Past, and finally Middle East, 1940 to 1942: A Study in Air Power. Guedalla’s epigrams – ‘History repeats itself. Historians repeat each other’, for example – are much beloved for their jocularity; indeed, his writing is distinguished for its wit and engaging style. He has been honoured by the National Portrait Gallery in London who hold many portraits of Guedalla in various mediums. He died in 1944 after contracting an illness during his service as Squadron Leader in the R.A.F.

Terra is shiftless --- a werewolf uncomfortable in her own animal skin.

A decade after learning to squash her wolf and flee the repressive village where she grew up, the packless ache still gnaws at Terra's insides. But despite her yearnings, she struggles against being reeled back into her old life.

To Terra's dismay, her father and half a dozen of his henchmen finally ambush her and demand her return. Yet they do offer one way out --- hunt down her nephew Keith, teach him to shift, and bring the youngster back into the fold in her place.

Problem upon problem piles up as Terra strives to do her father's bidding. The female shifter has hidden from her wolf for so long that she finds herself unable to change back into canine form, and she also realizes that her nephew is too good-natured to survive for a minute walking in his grandfather's footsteps. Plus, there's an alpha standing in her way who's equal parts enticing and terrifying.

Will Terra be able to relearn her werewolf abilities --- and overcome her morals --- before her father steals away her hard-earned independence? And as that tantalizing alpha reels her in closer and closer, the question becomes --- does she really want to stay away?

Don't miss the first book in a series that has been described as a "good choice for Patricia Briggs fans."

“This first-hand acquaintance with Thoreau and his friends lends an authority to Sanborn's writings, and… he was able to put into print many details of Thoreau's life that would otherwise have been lost.” — Walter Harding, A Thoreau Handbook

“Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also a prison.”

This personal biography is a great insight into the life of a great man. Journalist, abolitionist, philosopher, and poet, Henry David Thoreau lived a fascinating life surrounded by great figures, including Ralph Waldo Emerson.

As a lifelong abolitionist, Thoreau delivered many lectures that attacked the Fugitive Slave law. His most famous work, Civil Disobedience, has been the basis of many protest movements all around the world, influencing the political manifestos of figures like Leo Tolstoy, Gandhi, and Martin Luther King Jr.

Frank B. Sanborn’s biography is informal and affectionate, coming from a man who knew Thoreau and moved in his circles. It relies not on Thoreau’s reputation, but on the words of his friends, family, and Thoreau’s own personal letters.

This biography is a chance for readers to get an idea of the man behind the myth, perhaps more than any academic biography could. Far from the dry accounts of his life, Sanborn’s Henry David Thoreau is a biography with heart.

Frank B. Sanborn (1831 –1917) was an American journalist, author, and reformer. A memorialist of American transcendentalism, Sanborn wrote early biographies of many of the movement's key figures.

Can an ordinary guy make extraordinary choices in a battle between humanity and unearthly evil?

Joe Mandel is a perfectly ordinary guy from a perfectly ordinary town—a college student and community volunteer who dreams of one day publishing a novel. When a series of strange intuitions leads him to a crime in progress, Joe jumps headlong into danger without hesitation. In the aftermath, he wonders about the uncanny impulse that suddenly swept over him.

Until new friend Portia Montclair, the strangely wise daughter of the local police chief, explains to him what sent him ricocheting around town like a crazy pinball. Portia tells of another reality, a reality more thrilling—and terrifying—than Joe ever imagined. Timeless, elemental forces of good and evil have come to the quiet town of Little City: a cosmic entity capable of infecting human beings, and the seeker who has chosen Joe to find it.

To stop the malevolent invader, this average Joe must be braver than he ever thought possible…and face the hardest decisions of his life.

He's the one who went away. 
After...knocking me up! 

I knew I shouldn't have, 
And yet I did. 
He's the town troublemaker, a ripped alpha male who is nothing I need, 
But everything my curves crave. 
He's got the reputation of a bad boy who works hard, and plays harder. 
And yet I can't resist his body 
Which is as bitingly hot as his tongue.  
Worse...he's my brother's best friend. 

Our attraction is instant, 
Our troubles are immediate. 
To add to it, 
I can't trace him once my brother finds out about us. 
I need to find him and let him know that...
He's the father.

This is messed up, way too messed up!
