Beschreibung

In "A Sheaf of Verses: Poems," Radclyffe Hall presents a captivating collection that captures complex emotions and themes central to human experience, particularly love, longing, and identity. Hall's poetic style is marked by its lyrical beauty and introspective depth, reflecting both personal and universal sentiments. The collection delves into the struggles of self-acceptance and societal constraints faced by those outside the conventional norms of early 20th-century England, thereby situating the work within the rich context of modernist literature where existential themes abound and traditional forms are often subverted. Radclyffe Hall, an influential figure in LGBTQ+ literature, was born into a society rife with rigid gender norms. Her experiences as a woman who defied societal expectations undoubtedly informed her poetry, lending it authenticity and urgency. An early advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, Hall's work often explored themes of sexuality and identity, reflecting her own struggles and desires. "A Sheaf of Verses" thus stands as not only a showcase of her literary prowess but also as a significant cultural artifact of its time. This collection is highly recommended for readers who appreciate poetry that challenges societal norms while exploring the depths of emotional and personal truth. Hall's eloquent verses resonate with anyone seeking insight into the human condition, making this work a timeless addition to the canon of modern poetry.

    I've inherited my aunt's historic house in small-town Oregon, and I need to fix it up and sell it fast before I move on to my big-city dreams. I'm one of the navy's best investigators, but twenty years of living in base housing means DIY isn't part of my extensive skill set. 
     
     
     
    Luckily, my best friend has the solution: his twenty-three-year-old son. Knox recently graduated from college, needs a room for the summer, and comes with a giant cat and years of remodeling experience. 
     
     
     
    Not only is Knox all grown up and hot as sin, but I recognize him. He's the bossy, bearded guy I shared the hottest kiss of my life with. No way can my buddy find out I've got it bad for his son. But with all the stripping, hammering, and drilling, my defenses crumble one dance break at a time. 
     
     
     
    As our sexy secret summer fling continues, Knox also proves himself handy at fixing my grumpy mood and wounded heart. Now I can't imagine a future without him. I can solve any problem the navy throws at me, but I have no clue what to do about loving Knox or the damage this could do to my decades-long friendship. 
     
     
     
    Can we build a forever together, or are we destined to go our separate ways?

    A mafia Underboss. A federal agent. A forbidden affair that could destroy them both. 
    Special Agent Baxter Flynn's master's thesis on the Morelli Family Underboss was supposed to be the start of a promising career. Instead, his fixation on the mysterious Angelo Messina is starting to blur the lines between attraction and obsession.  
    After a series of slayings in Central Park are blamed on the Morelli Family, Bax is determined to uncover the truth behind the notorious mobster's legendary reputation. But a tense late-night encounter in the Park turns into an assassination attempt on one—or maybe both—of them.  
    Forced into an uneasy alliance against a twisted killer with a deadly agenda, Bax and Angelo are drawn to each other despite everything—their age gap, their conflicting morals, and the fact that they're supposed to be enemies.  
    But with corrupt cops, old vendettas, and their own inner demons to conquer, will the path to a happily ever after be paved with blood? 
    *** 
    Enticed by the Enemy is a M/M mafia romance set in the world of the Morelli Crime Family. It can be enjoyed as a standalone, but it's even more fun to experience the series in order. Characters and events from previous books are referenced.

Romance is not on her agenda, no matter how much her friends, coworkers, and neighbors try to convince her otherwise. As the cochair and vice president of the Anneville Special Events Committee, she can't imagine abandoning her duties for a fling with her high school crush, Avery Sumner. 
     
     
     
    Avery left Anneville to become a successful, albeit often frustrated, record producer in New York. When her top star makes some capricious demands, Avery finds herself back in Anneville, where life suddenly seems more inviting. 
     
     
     
    Despite an undeniable attraction between Winter and Avery, a series of missed opportunities and hilarious obstacles constantly seem to get in the way of the simplest thing in the world: falling in love.

    A rookie, his teammate, and his best friend from a rival team. What could possibly go wrong? 
    Seattle Snowhawks rookie Justin Reid has it bad for his teammate Shawn Kelleher. It’s just his luck that Shawn’s got a crush too… on Justin’s best friend, Vancouver Narwhal center Keith Adams. 
    When Shawn lets it slip at the worst possible moment that he wants Keith, Justin is hurt, but what can he do? He steers Keith in Shawn’s direction and lets chemistry do the rest. 
    What Justin doesn’t know is that while Keith is into Shawn, he’s also secretly wanted Justin since forever. After some stumbling, they realize there’s something very hot and very mutual going on between all three of them. It’s fantasies coming true left, right, and center, and it just doesn’t get any better than this. 
    Except this scorching hot triad is anything but simple. Not while the closeted son of a hockey legend is fighting to make his own name in the shadow of his deeply homophobic father’s legacy. Not in the midst of grueling schedules and a team’s fraternization rules. Throw in pesky emotions showing up where they aren’t wanted, and it’s a play that’s doomed from the start. 
    Shawn, Keith, and Justin all fought their way into professional hockey. Is what they have together worth fighting for too? Or will fear let heartache win this game? 
    ASSIST is approximately 117,500 words. It's book 2 of the Pucks & Rainbows series, and can be read as a standalone.
