Sinossi

In "Claudine at School," Colette introduces readers to the spirited and precocious Claudine, a young girl navigating her formative years in a rural French boarding school. Written with Colette's signature lyrical prose, the novel elegantly captures the complexities of adolescence, friendship, and the nuances of gender expectations during the early 20th century. With vivid descriptions and a keen psychological insight, the narrative explores the struggles and joys of youth, all set against the backdrop of a traditional French education system, characterized by its strictures yet ripe for rebellion. Colette, a groundbreaking figure in French literature, drew upon her own experiences as a schoolgirl to craft this semi-autobiographical tale. Born into a creative family, she became a prominent writer and feminist, known for her explorations of identity and sexuality. Her literary career, which flourished during a time when women's voices were often marginalized, reflects her passion for freedom and authenticity, themes that resonate deeply within "Claudine at School." This enchanting novel is highly recommended for readers who admire rich character development and nuanced storytelling. Colette's brilliant observations and humor not only entertain but also offer profound reflections on the transition from childhood innocence to the complexities of adulthood. Ideal for both young adults and literary enthusiasts, it remains a timeless exploration of growth and self-discovery. This translation has been assisted by artificial intelligence.

    From USA Today Bestselling Author Laura Scott 
    Walking the line between danger and love! 
    Undercover memory loss… 
    Coast Guard Lieutenant Quinn Finnegan is shocked when he rescues his believed to be dead, former fiancée, Sami Lopez out of the middle of Lake Michigan. But even more stunning is the fact that Sami doesn’t remember who she is or why she was crossing the lake in a storm. Since Sami was a former cop, he believes she may have been working undercover in a case that had gone terribly wrong. The boat explosion was no accident. And when the threats against Sami escalate, it’s difficult to know who they should trust. 
    Sami can’t ignore the desperate sense of urgency plaguing her. There is something critically important she needs to do. But what? The only reason she was still alive was thanks to Quinn and his family. Given the attraction between them, it didn’t make sense that she’d left him two years earlier. Will they survive long enough to learn the truth, and have a second chance at love?

    A voyage on the famous Nonestic Ocean! What could be more thrilling than that? We—many of us—have taken trips on the prosaic Atlantic or even Pacific, but have we found a SEA FOREST with flying fish and swimming birds? Have we been pursued by a real SEA SERPENT, or had our ship transfixed by the immense ivory tusk of a NARWHAL? Have we come upon the glittering island of PEAKENSPIRE, or made friends with a charming talking hippopotamus? Yet all these things and more befall Captain Salt, one time Pirate and now Royal Explorer of Oz, and his merry crew. They come back with their hold bursting with unique and fascinating specimens, with their chart crowded with new islands, claimed for Ozma, and drawn so realistically by the delightful little boy Tandy, Cabin Boy and Artist of the Expedition.A voyage on the famous Nonestic Ocean!

    1920s, Blue Moon, Montana. The small cattle town is alight with the excitement  
    of cars, telephones, and airplanes. But as new inventions and new roles for  
    women collide with Prohibition and the rising battle between gangsters and the  
    FBI, Blue Moon finds itself—and some of its most infamous residents and  
    powerful families—at a crossroads, and in battles of their own, between hearts  
    and minds … 
    Heir to the Hollister Ranch on his mother’s side, Mason Dollarhide is back home  
    after a five-year prison sentence for smuggling bootleg liquor. Cynical and daring,  
    he’s already up to his old tricks, having his goods trafficked to him by plane. …  
    Until the pilot is injured in a crash and captured by federal agents. 
    Ruby Weaver learned to fly from her smuggler father. To keep him from a harsh  
    prison sentence, she agrees to take over his route and go undercover to help the  
    Feds break up a bootlegging ring. Mason is only one part of that large operation,  
    but he’s the rugged, rebellious, and tantalizingly irreverent part that makes an  
    impression. Against her better judgement, Ruby finds herself falling for him,  
    fighting an attraction that could jeopardize them both, while harboring a secret  
    that could destroy any hope of a future together … 
    Mason has never met a woman quite like Ruby. Not only is she brave and  
    beautiful, but she somehow understands his ways—and may even inspire him to  
    change them. The first step will be trusting her enough to open his heart … 
    While the fire between Ruby and Mason smolders, other star-crossed Blue Moon  
    romances blaze, as old family rivalries between the Dollarhides and the Calders  
    continue. But when tables unexpectedly turn, some dreams may go up in smoke … 
    The epic tale of the settling of the American West comes to vivid life in this  
    inspiring saga of love, hope and endurance.

    Death was all he deserved . . . until it wasn't. 
     
     
     
    No sooner than I step out of sight of Death, and what our deal has wrought, do I regret the words I've spoken. 
     
     
     
    My heart aches from the harshness of my tongue, and I wonder if I have made a grave mistake. 
     
     
     
    And yet, I do not turn back. No. Instead, I harden my heart against these thoughts. Against my feelings. 
     
     
     
    Sealing my fate with yet another mistake borne of disobedience . . . not only to my mother's dying wish, but to the true desires of my soul. 
     
     
     
    A fate that will force me to my very knees to save the ones I love. To save him. To save . . . us.
