Beschreibung

Clifford Ames is almost forty years old, and his ever-patient dog, Bambi Turgelson, is his only friend. Why? Because his egotistical boss and former closeted lover, Lambert Morton takes fiendish pleasure in working him to death, 24/7. Clifford knows he should leave the company and his unrequited love behind, but he keeps punishing himself by staying and taking the abuse, thinking things will be different, one day. 
A wedding invitation from a far-flung cousin gives him the impetus to make a change, even if it's just for a three-day weekend. Enter Jetson Briscoe, son of the owner of the picturesque resort where the wedding is being held. His own personal Paul Bunyan come to life, Jetson gives Clifford a glimpse of the kind of life he could have, without the stress and crippling headaches and possible ulcer he deals with day-to-day. Will it be enough to make him change?

    Theo: He's the most infuriating, immature frat brat I've ever had the misfortune of coming across. He's also the guy I dumped in high school when I realized I was straight. And he just so happens to be the intern at his dad's company; the very same one I work for. 
     
     
     
    A terrible misunderstanding puts Justin Lewis into my care. I'm supposed to teach him how his father's business works. But he's determined to do it the hard way. 
     
     
     
    Four years ago, after breaking his heart, I experienced what Justin's hatred could do. He ruined the final weeks of high school for me. He scared me into skipping my prom night. No more. If only he wasn't so irresistible. 
     
     
     
    Justin: It was supposed to be simple; do the internship, make Dad happy, and go away to lick my wounds. I'm sick of the way I live, but a terrible breakup from four years ago still haunts me. 
     
     
     
    Until I start my internship and discover there's Theo Wright in my office. The guy hates me, and I know why. But I hate him just as much. If I'm going to earn my ticket out, I need to do this internship. And Theo just so happens to be the only thing to help me pass the time. Annoying him is my new, favorite hobby.

    As a personal assistant, Tristan does just about everything for his boss. So, he's not surprised when Dante asks him to travel along to a wedding reception in the country and help the two grooms with their plans. He's not even surprised Dante has requested Gavin, Dante's security officer and Tristan's arch-enemy, to come as well.
    
    
    Gavin is sexy, smart, struts like a peacock, and does everything he can to drive Tristan crazy on a daily basis. So as much as Gavin's presence was expected, Tristan isn't happy about it, and he's really not happy about having to sleep on a cot in a barn while Gavin gets to stay in the farmhouse in an actual bedroom.
    
    
    When a little flirting gets Tristan into yet another argument with Gavin, things start to get heated between them -- in a way they never have before. As they start to learn a bit more about each other, Tristan is having a hard time deciding if the country air is messing with his head, or if there's a possibility the disgust he's been feeling for Gavin isn't actually hate at all.

    The Cole women are cursed. Each generation will birth a daughter, lose their love, and, as surely as the tide beats against the rocky shore, take her own life by giving herself to the sea. For generations, the Cole women have lived as outcasts, maintaining a lighthouse on a small island off the coast of New Hampshire. Ever since their ancestor was accused of witchcraft and cast into the sea hundreds of years prior, the islanders have ostracized the Coles, distrusting their rumored magic and their control of the lighthouse.Despite their mistreatment, the Cole women are compelled to remain on the island because they know that if a Cole woman does not light the beacon on Juniper Island, anyone who is out at sea will be drowned. Out of guilt and obligation, the Cole women live out their solitary lives on the island, knowing someday their recompense for protecting the people from the sea will be to die in the sea themselves.Told in three interwoven timelines in the late twentieth century, The Curse of the Cole Women unravels the lives of three women who struggle with their relationships with each other as they contend with the reality of their fates—is it truly a curse, or is it generational madness that drives Cole women to the sea?
