Lady Susan

Jane Austen (author)

Sinopse

Austen's "most wicked tale," Lady Susan is a short epistolary novel by Jane Austen, possibly written in 1794 but not published until 1871. Lady Susan is a selfish, attractive woman, who tries to trap the best possible husband while maintaining a relationship with a married man. She subverts all the standards of the romantic novel; she has an active role, she's not only beautiful but intelligent and witty, and her suitors are significantly younger than she is.

Christmas in Paradise

Deborah Brown

My name is Madison Westin. Unless it's Christmas, in which case my official title is "Holiday Cheermistress." Nothing stops me from getting my ho-ho-ho on, not even my friends' Grinch-worthy attitude toward sparkling tinsel, twinkling lights, and tinkling bells. 
 
Hey, if Creole, Fab, and Didier wind up with coal in their stockings, it won't be my fault. 
 
When some bah-humbug bandit makes the rounds of Tarpon Cove, Fab and I are on the case. It's the least we can do for our loyal friends. Seasonal crime-victim disorder seems to be on the rise.  
 
Some guy in a Santa suit—well, the top half of one anyway—is robbing local banks. The cops are fingering the wrong guy. And you can bet your light-up Rudolph boxers that if we can't track the real thief down, one of my merry band of miscreants could be spending the holidays behind bars.
