Sinopse

Jules Verne's "The Greatest Adventure Books of All Time - Jules Verne Collection" encapsulates the author's pioneering spirit in science fiction and adventure literature. This compilation features classic tales such as "Journey to the Center of the Earth" and "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea," characterized by Verne's unique blend of vivid imagination and meticulous scientific detail. Written during the late 19th century, a time rife with advancements in exploration and technology, the collection engages readers with intricate plots that are both thrilling and educational, laying the groundwork for modern speculative fiction. Jules Verne, often hailed as one of the fathers of science fiction, was born in 1828 in France. His early affinity for literature and science was influenced by his familial background and the radical changes in science and technology occurring during his lifetime. Verne's resolve to explore uncharted territories through literature emerges from both his fascination with the possibilities of mankind and a deep commentary on the human condition in relation to the wonders of nature and invention. For readers of adventure and speculative fiction, this collection is an essential gateway into Verne's ingenious mind and his lasting impact on literature. These stories not only entertain but also inspire curiosity about the unknown, making it a must-read for any literature enthusiast.

    Bane should have been king . . . 
     
     
     
    But he was born four minutes too late. Though it was Bane who'd led armies to victory against the scourge of the undying, now he must watch as his undeserving twin claims yet another throne through marriage to a princess of a neighboring kingdom. A kingdom that Bane had saved. 
     
     
     
    That throne should be his. So he'll take it. 
     
     
     
    All Bane must do is deceive his twin's innocent bride. He'll trick her into his bed, and once he's planted his seed, the bride—and her kingdom—will be his. With such a prize in hand, he won't care if she ever forgives him for his deception. It hardly matters if she does, because his evil plan doesn't include falling in love. 
     
     
     
    But his bride has a few plans of her own . . .

    Micah Hart had learned a few things the first few months of officially dating Damon Romano, a vicious mafioso/ridiculously rich billionaire, infamous throughout New York City for his cut-throat "business" tactics: 
     
     
     
    1. Damon was soft for nothing and no one . . . except Micah (and maybe his sisters). 2. His domineering tendencies definitely extended to the bedroom. 3. Damon didn't trust him—not completely. 
     
     
     
    That last one shouldn't have hurt as much as it did. After all, there were bound to be certain obstacles to overcome in a relationship when one person was a mafia don and the other was a police-detective-turned-PI. 
     
     
     
    Damon keeps Micah far away from anything related to his "work," and Micah allows it . . . at least until a stripper named Ginger waltzes into his struggling detective agency, claiming that her boyfriend—also a stripper—is trying to kill her. Ginger just so happens to work at Lust, the most infamous of a chain of clubs Damon has specifically warned Micah away from. 
     
     
     
    Taking the job would require him to go undercover at Lust, and he should say no. But Damon is out of town for the weekend. What's the worst that could happen? 
     
     
     
    (Psst. Spankings.) 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    A heartwarming story about the power of the perfect dress—and the perfect love—to change your life. 
     
     
     
    Francesca Delaney has a knack for matching a bride-to-be with the wedding dress of her dreams. Her shop, The Whispering Dress, is no ordinary bridal boutique. Every gown is vintage, and the wedding dresses seem to share their stories with Francesca, pointing to which woman needs them next. 
     
     
     
    Fran credits her success to two rules: never covet a dress and never sell a dress that led to a doomed marriage. But then she finds a beautiful 1950s couture floor-length gown, and her obsession threatens to win out. The owner, however, would quite like the dark past of the dress to remain hidden forever . . .
