  The start of a new series from bestselling author Sarah Bennett. 
  On paper, Hope Travers has an idyllic life. 
  Living in a bustling farmhouse with her mum, aunt and uncles, cousin and too many dogs to count, surrounded by the breath-taking Cotswolds countryside, she knows she is privileged and protected. 
  But all families have secrets, and the Travers family are no exception. Their farmhouse sits in the grounds of the Juniper Meadows estate, passed down through the generations and now being made to pay its own way with a myriad of businesses and projects. When a construction crew uncover what appear to be historical ruins, the history of the Travers family is put under ever closer scrutiny as a dig gets underway. 
  Hope may have found a blossoming romance with local archaeologist Cameron Ferguson who is running the dig, but when things start to go wrong around the estate and family secrets begin to be revealed, Hope wonders if she’s made a big mistake in digging up the past.

  The Prince by Niccolò Machiavelli is a pioneering political treatise that delves into the nature of power, leadership, and strategy. Written in the early 16th century during a turbulent time in Italy, the book provides practical, often ruthless advice for rulers on how to gain, secure, and wield power. Machiavelli categorizes various types of principalities, discusses the traits of effective and ineffective leaders, and explores how political challenges can be navigated with adaptability and pragmatism. He draws on historical examples, such as the actions of Cesare Borgia and other influential figures, to illustrate the complex realities of political life. Unconventional for its time, The Prince shifts away from the idealistic views of governance, advocating instead for a realistic approach that acknowledges human nature and the necessity of strong, sometimes severe, decisions. This work continues to provoke thought and debate, as it lays bare the unvarnished truths about politics, ambition, and human behavior. The Prince remains essential reading for those interested in the art of leadership, the psychology of influence, and the timeless strategies required to navigate political power and maintain control.

  The memory of why I jumped out of my ex-fiancé's car in a wedding dress is a bit hazy. Or maybe I was pushed. Disoriented, I stumble through the trees until exhaustion forces me to rest. Time passes in a feverish blur, but eventually, I'm discovered by a friendly dog and her unfriendly owner, Jude Powell. The gorgeous grump isn't too pleased with my disheveled appearance. That doesn't stop him from ripping my ruined dress to create a makeshift sling for my arm and taking me to the emergency room. To thank him for his reluctant hospitality, I take off without a backward glance . . . after borrowing his van and his watch. He tracks me to the local pawn shop with a proposition—work at his dog sanctuary, and he'll provide me with room and board. He's used to taking in strays, after all. 
   
   
   
  Considering that I can't remember my recent past, and what I can recall isn't worth returning to, it's an offer I can't refuse. We bicker over breakfast, but soon enough we're stealing soft touches, and I realize Jude is revealing a side of himself that he rarely shows. He becomes a protective force in my life, especially once my ex tracks me down. But Jude's keeping a secret of his own. One he believes makes him unworthy of my affection. And while he's preoccupied trying to keep me safe, it's up to me to prove he's wanted. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  When an unexpected opportunity arises, Kat doesn’t hesitate to take her place at the forefront of this fight. Once there, she must confront resistance and betrayal — not only from her opponents but lurking within the ranks and within her home.

  W L George - A Short Story...

  Walter Lionel George was born to British parents on the 20th March 1882 in Paris, France. 
   
  It was not until he was a young man of 20 that he learned English.  In 1905 he moved to London to work in an office but soon found himself working as a journalist, and as a foreign correspondent, for various London newspapers. 
   
  By 1911, with the publication of his first novel ‘A Bed of Roses’, which portrayed the fall of a penniless young woman into prostitution, his efforts were rewarded, and he turned to literature as a full-time career. 
   
  His writings now sold well.  He added short stories to his offerings as well as literary essays and several tracts that discussed left-wing themes.  Some critics thought his subject matter to be difficult and poorly chosen. His political views gained him little credit amongst his peers although such luminaries as George Orwell praised both subject matter and style. 
   
  His personal life was also turbulent.  His three marriages left him widowed twice.  In 1908 he married Helen Porter who died in 1914.  Helen Agnes Moorhead followed in 1916 but died only 4 years later.  His last marriage was to Kathleen Geipel in 1921. 
   
  W. L George died on 30th January 1926.  He was 43.
