When a horrific loss throws Monster High into a state of grave upheaval, Draculaura and the other ghouls find themselves coping in different ways.
For her part, the chaos at school is making Draculaura sick. She finds escape only by slipping away to the cemetery to pore over her mom's old journals. It's there that she meets Poe. If her ghoulfriends find out she's fallen for a normie, they'll freak. And if Poe discovers she's a vampire, his monster-hunting dad may have a stake in the matter.
Meanwhile, dangerous events have begun plaguing the halls of Monster High. When the magical protections around the school borders falter and a group of normies stumble onto campus, Draculaura and the other ghouls know something needs to be done.
But there's a secret about Draculaura that no one was aware of until now. When Draculaura and Ghoulia uncover ancient texts that reveal the full implications of her identity, Draculaura is forced to make an impossible choice that will alter her identity forever.
Will her loyalties to Monster High determine all their fates? Or will Draculaura succumb to a dangerous passion that makes her feel more . . . alive than she ever has?
Men view love as a game. One you can walk away from.
At least that’s what the men in my life have taught me. My dad ran off when I was young, and just when I thought I was getting my own happily ever after, my ex left me on my own with two kids.
Trying to pick up the pieces, I move to a small town where I can have help from my children’s grandparents. I think I know what to expect from small-town life. Until I meet my new neighbor.
Knox Madigan. Local hero. Great smile. So hot I'm sure I’d be burned if I got too close.
Literally. He and my kids are in a major prank war. From whoopie cushions in my bed to snapping fireworks under my front door mat, I’ve witnessed it all. But I can’t hold it against him because my kids are smiling more than I’ve seen since their dad left.
Every meddling person in this town thinks we’d be the perfect match, but I know better.
History’s shown men view love as a game, and he’s an expert. But I can’t afford to play with my heart again. Especially since it’s not just my heart on the line.
Meet the hostesses who have shaped cocktail history, and learn how to make the drinks they loved.
Throughout American history, women have helped propel what we know as classic cocktails-the Martini, the Manhattan, the Old-Fashioned, and more-into popular culture. But, often excluded from private clubs, women exercised this influence from the home, in their cocktail parlors. In The Cocktail Parlor, Dr. Nicola Nice, sociologist and spirits entrepreneur, gives women their long-overdue spotlight in cocktail history and shows how they still impact cocktail culture today.
Journeying through the decades, this book profiles a diverse array of influential hostesses. With each historic era comes iconic recipes, featuring a total of forty main cocktails and more than 100 variations that listeners can make at home. Whether its happy hour punch a la Martha Washington or a Harlem Renaissance-inspired Green Skirt, listeners will find that many of the ingredients and drinks they're familiar with today wouldn't be here without the hostesses who served them first.
Four years after the events of The Worm and His Kings, Donna Ashton ekes out a life far removed from her troubled past, only to be abducted one December night by a monster in man's skin.
Held prisoner by operatives of a clandestine research facility and drugged into a sickened state, each day brings questioning and punishment. Escape should be possible when Donna faces only mortal hands this time, but the more she sees, the worse her mind splinters with horrific understanding.
This facility has punched a hole in space and time. Within it lie secrets mankind should never know of a darkness beyond the universe, the legacy of the almighty Worm, and revelations behind Donna's ordeal four years ago which now might get her killed.
Irina Nikifortchuk was nineteen years old and a Ukrainian schoolteacher when she was abducted to be a forced laborer in the Leica camera factory in Nazi Germany. Eventually pulled from the camp hospital to work as a domestic in the Leica owners' household, Irina survived the war and eventually found her way to Canada.
Decades later Sasha Colby, Irina's granddaughter, seeks out her grandmother's story over a series of summer visits and gradually begins to interweave the as-told-to story with historical research. As she delves deeper into the history of the Leica factory and World War II forced labor, she discovers the parallel story of Elsie Kühn-Leitz, Irina's rescuer and the factory heiress, later imprisoned and interrogated by the Gestapo on charges of 'excessive humanity.'
This is creative nonfiction at its best as the mystery of Irina's life unspools skillfully and arrestingly. Despite the horrors that the story must tell, it is full of life, humor, food, and the joy of ordinary safety in Canada. The Matryoshka Memoirs takes us into a forgotten corner of history, weaving a rich and satisfying tapestry of survival and family ties and asking what we owe those who aid us.
When I arrived in Alaska, I thought I signed up for a simple IT job.
I didn't think I'd have to create a massive magic spell with my funky witchy powers-for a village of sea dragons, no less.
But here I am. Surrounded by my family's mortal enemies, trying to learn spells most five-year-olds can perform, and getting flustered over guys who turn into mythical beings.
The worst thing: I don't even mind that much. Because as terrifying as this new world is, these three men make it worthwhile.
With every look, every touch, every kiss, I get more addicted.
Until the moment my old life catches up with me, bringing dangers I never saw coming. Everything I've worked to build might shatter with one false move.
Unless I figure out how to be the witch I was meant to be.
Enemies are closing in, threatening those I love.
You'd think witch hunts were a thing of the past, but it turns out, some dragons aren't happy with a witch living in their village.
What's worse, my family can't seem to let me go, and I'm scared of how far they'll go to keep me from using my magic.
If I have to leave Amber Bay to save my men from being hunted, then that's what I'll do. Even if my heart will break with every mile I put between us.
But they won't let me go.
They'll fight for me until their last breath, and I want nothing more than to stay with them.
No matter what the future brings.
Born in poverty-stricken Albania, twin sisters Argita and Detina Zalli always dreamed of becoming doctors. Their parents scrimped and sacrificed, committed to giving them a better life. But then the unthinkable happened. In 1997, the government collapsed, plunging the country into anarchy and civil war. The twins' dream unraveled along with their homeland. Their parents had to find a way to leave and save their daughters' futures-not to mention their very lives.
It took over two years for the Zalli family to escape. After several dangerous attempts, they finally made it to England, where the thirteen-year-old twins believed everything would be much better. They soon found out otherwise. Now refugees, with little more than the clothes on their backs, the girls were mercilessly bullied and constantly afraid they would be sent back to Albania, and their parents would be sent to jail. Still, the twins persevered and learned how to navigate their harsh new reality. When tragedy struck yet again, the girls had to come to terms with the high price they had all paid to survive.
In Good Morning, Hope, Argita and Detina share their harrowing story of courage and resilience. It was the strength of their family, particularly the sisters' unique, unbreakable bond as twins, that nurtured and sustained them throughout their perilous ordeal.
Amber Bay, Alaska, has it all.
A cozy log cabin with a roaring fireplace? Check.
A remote location where my family can't find me? Check.
Three hot guys I can't stop thinking about? Also check.
But the small off-grid town also has a mysterious undercurrent running through it. People are wary of strangers-even though they don't know I'm a witch-and mothers shoo their children away when I'm near.
Something's not right here, and I intend to find out what it is.
But I'm afraid that digging up this town's secrets might expose my own.
Alabama, 1889. An arranged marriage, a dilapidated mansion, and a ghost determined to keep the new husband and wife apart...
Newlywed Tessa Travis approaches her new home — and her new husband — with more than a little trepidation. The once-fine home is in disrepair, and her husband, John, seems no more thrilled with their arranged marriage than she is. To make matters even worse, her new home is haunted.
And the ghost seems determined to keep Tessa and John from consummating their marriage.
“My life is falling apart, and the guy I meet at the bar might be the one to help me put it back together,” said No One Ever.
Getting dumped by my fiancé and going to the bar was not a good look. Neither was stealing condoms from the student supply and going home with a complete stranger.
But here I was.
And I quickly find out this man isn’t a stranger after all. He’s the father of one of my students, which makes him completely off limits.
Let’s just hope Cohen--and his magical mouth--are worth all the trouble.
