As the star forward for the Boston Blades, I've earned a reputation for no-strings attached hookups and a mean slapshot that has all the ladies purring - but it's never been the one woman I want to see all fired up and ready to score. Boston's own Ice Queen Gwen James has had my emotions all tangled up for years. I've played the games. I've sat on the sidelines. I'm done being benched. When she approaches me for a second chance, I accept on one condition: she's got to prove she's all in. It just might kill me to keep my hands to myself, but it's time Gwen knows what it's like to beg.

Falling down is an accident. Staying down is a choice. Going down is a career-changer...that's the one I did. How was I supposed to know that the NHL's toughest enforcer, the Red Wings' laundry room, and one security video would be my downfall? I've spent more time in the penalty box than any other player in the NHL, but this time I really screwed up. How was I supposed to know that one night and one choice would be worse than all of my transgressions on the ice? Now, I've lost my team, my sponsors, and my publicist. For most people, it's bend or break. For me, it's melt or harden.

He (was) the hottest player on the ice. She's a (struggling) sports journalist looking for her big break. Charlie Denton has been handed the most impossible assignment from her stick-in-the-mud boss: get an exclusive interview with the NHL's golden boy, Duke Harrison. The catch? She's got eight days or she'll be demoted. Fired. Kicked to the curb - no way is she letting her future rest on the broad shoulders of a goalie who is at least three seasons past his prime.

As captain for the Boston Blades, I've spent years working toward bringing home the Stanley Cup. But when the owners sell us out to Hollywood, suddenly we're not just playing for thousands of fans, we're cracking open our lives on Getting Pucked, a new reality show. I agree to sign the contract on one condition: They hire New England's reigning queen of media to call the shots. Holly Belliveaux Carter. The woman who drives me to insanity and turns me on with nothing but a quirk of her lips and the sound of her laugh. The only woman I've ever loved. The problem? She's my ex-wife.

They call her America’s sweetheart. And me? I’m the so-called “inked god” she dumped on TV. I’ve tried to forget her. I’ve tried to move on. Until I discover that her family is opening a new restaurant next to my tattoo parlor.

Antonieta Osornio era una joven rebelde que se enamoró y se casó muy joven. Un día su marido la desafía y Tony decide saltar de un avión y como resultado de esa experiencia, Tony se vuelve adicta al paracaidismo. A partir de ese momento, su vida se convierte en una serie de aventuras, escapando de la muerte en tantas ocasiones que finalmente la llevan a convertirse en una fuente de inspiración y cambio para las personas con discapacidades motoras.

Never trust a bad boy. That’s what Beauty Influencer Lizzie Danvers tells her YouTube subscribers after getting dumped on Instagram. Lizzie may have the devil’s luck in choosing men, but she’s determined to prove that the age-old “once a playboy, always a playboy” theory is bulletproof. All she needs is 30 days and one sexy commitment-phobe to do it... By day, Gage Harvey helps his twin at Inked on Bourbon, tattooing butterflies onto every female under the age of 30. By night, he works for New Orleans’ Special Operations Division, fulfilling a family legacy to protect his city.

I dare you to find me the perfect match, she said. Luke O'Connor has never turned down a dare. Ever. But that was before his last deployment left the charming playboy a shell of his former self. Now he just wants to be left alone - no hookups, no relationships. Single mother and the CEO of New Orleans' hottest lingerie boutique, Anna Bryce has it all - except a business can't keep her warm at night. She's determined to find Mr. Right, but can't fight her attraction to Mr. All Wrong, the wounded veteran who says he's not into her. I dare you to kiss me, she said. I dare you to love me.

Twelve years and too many pairs of stilettos later, Shaelyn Lawrence is back where she started: New Orleans. She's returned only to take care of her grandmother, and after that? She's out, hopefully long before she sees irresistible Brady Taylor, the boy who stomped all over her heart. But when a family member approaches her for help, there's only one person she can to turn to...and he's just as infuriatingly sexy as she remembers. Oh boy. New Orleans Detective Brady Taylor has his sights on the finish line: getting promoted to sergeant.

Jorge Luis Borges immersed himself and his readers in metaphysical fantasies—playing reason against faith, belief against logic. His profound knowledge of eastern religions was an endless source of inspiration for his writing. On Mysticism—edited by Borges’s widow, Maria Kodama—brings together a stunning group of prose pieces and poems that speak to this signature theme of his writing, from some of his most celebrated works to others that appear here in English for the first time.

Antonieta Osornio was a rebellious young woman who fell in love and married very young. One day her husband challenges her, and Tony decides to jump out of a plane, and as a result of that experience, Tony becomes addicted to skydiving. From that moment on, her life turns into a series of adventures, escaping death on so many occasions, that ultimately lead her to become a source of inspiration and change for people with motor disabilities. 

Warning: one dirty-talking detective and one feisty crime lab technician collide in the second installment to the sizzling NOLA Heart series! Mixing business with pleasure just got a little hotter down in the Big Easy... Nathan Danvers has cultivated a certain, sexy reputation among the ladies in New Orleans. As a former marine and current detective for the New Orleans PD, Nathan is just fine with being the guy women take home to bed, but not the guy they take home to meet the parents. It’s exactly what he wants - until he spots the black-haired beauty, Jade. Jade Harper is over men.

Das Buch ist eine der schönsten Erfindungen der Menschheit. Bücher lassen Worte durch Zeit und Raum reisen und sorgen dafür, dass Ideen und Geschichten Generationen überdauern. Irene Vallejo nimmt uns mit auf eine abenteuerliche Reise durch die faszinierende Geschichte des Buches, von den Anfängen der Bibliothek von Alexandria bis zum Untergang des Römischen Reiches. Dabei treffen wir auf rebellische Nonnen, gewiefte Buchhändler, unermüdliche Geschichtenerzählerinnen und andere Menschen, die sich der Welt der Bücher verschrieben haben.

¿Qué define una biblioteca? ¿Hay algo que podamos decir que "es" una biblioteca? ¿Un mueble? ¿Una cantidad de libros determinada? Con este libro nos vamos a dar cuenta de que no hay una definición única. Están quienes fusionan sus bibliotecas al casarse y quienes, al irse a convivir con otra persona, prefieren mantenerlas separadas. También hay bibliotecas "inmateriales": libros leídos pero no acumulados, desperdigados por el universo. Y por qué no, bibliotecas separadas: una en Buenos Aires y otra en Rosario.

No hay guía turístico en este país más preparado que un aficionado errante del Murcia. Desde 1996 hasta 2016, el Murcia ha jugado en el grupo murciano de Tercera, el grupo catalán de Segunda B, el grupo andaluz de Segunda B, el grupo gallego de Segunda B, Segunda y Primera División. El Murcia ha visto mucha España, excesiva, y eso ha traído consecuencias: hay aficionados del Murcia a los que ya no les queda España por ver, hay aficionados del Murcia que ya han marcado todas las casillas.
