In A Changed Man, Thomas Hardy offers a quiet meditation on fate, character, and the subtle turns of the human heart. With his signature restraint and clarity, he draws a moment when the past gently disturbs the present and a single decision reveals the deep currents beneath an ordinary life. This story reflects Hardy's enduring concern with moral struggle and the slow, often silent shifts within the self. Deceptively simple, it unfolds with the muted drama of real people shaped by time, memory, and the weight of choice.Show book
Respectable lady scholars shouldn’t be dodging evildoers, escaping lost tombs, and chasing down magical artifacts. Archivist and suffragette Ellie Mallory always dreamed of putting her scholarly skills to work in the ancient sands of Egypt. She never imagined she would be doing so in order to save an object of legendary power from a batch of ruthless villains. Racing baddies to an arcanum of Biblical proportions is only one of Ellie’s problems. Her hopelessly academic and perpetually mortified step-brother, Dr. Neil Fairfax, is about to learn that she’s been gallivanting around the globe with his danger-magnet best friend, Adam Bates—the roguish surveyor for whom Ellie harbors increasingly complicated feelings. Add the petite and terrifyingly fearless Constance Tyrrell to the mix, and Ellie either has a crack team of artifact-saving experts to hand… or a recipe for disaster. Together, they’ll need to follow a trail of three-thousand-year-old clues from the necropolis of Saqqara to the temples of Luxor and beyond, where the ruined capital of a heretic pharaoh hides a secret with the potential to upend history. To keep an earth-shattering magic from falling into the wrong hands, Ellie will need to pull out all the stops—even if that means resorting to fisticuffs, ignoring proper archaeological processes… and solving one of Egypt’s greatest mysteries. Dive into Tomb of the Sun King to experience the next action-packed historical fantasy adventure in the Raiders of the Arcana series, narrated by SOVAS award-nominated voice actor Alex Picard.Show book

Tattoos, muscles, and a beard? Oh my. Ben McCallister wasn't like any man attorney Harper Finch had ever dated. For one, his hands were rough and calloused from working all day at his mechanic shops; two, his muscled arms, back, and chest were covered in tattoos; and three, he rode a Harley. The men Harper dated were the ones her daddy would approve of: white-collar, with hands as soft as hers, and the most ink any of them had ever had was a fraternity seal that stayed hidden under short sleeves. But there was something about this bearded man . . . how gentle and caring he was with her—outside the bedroom, that is. But his manners in the bedroom? Let's just say he didn't have any—which suited Harper just fine. He was a dream come true. If only she were allowed to dream anymore . . . but her family and her secret made that impossible. She'd have to settle for a fun summer fling. She should have known Ben McCallister would never 'settle' for anything less than all of her—forever. Contains mature themes.Show book
