Based on the characters from thriller-writer Edgar Wallace's (1875-1932) "Four Just Men" series, this story explores what happens when Maria of Gratz, former leader of the Anarchist group the Red Hundred, returns to London in 1924 to escape her enemies on the continent of Europe. It is now 16 years since she and her Red Army tried to destroy London and only the Four Just Men were able to stop her. In revenge, Maria then betrayed George Manfred, the Just Men's leader, to the English police. Now Maria is back, swearing her love for George, but although he believes she has reformed, his two colleagues Raymond Poiccart and Leon Gonsalez do not -- and neither does Leon's young wife Mirabelle Leicester. With the British economy in crisis and the General Strike just over the horizon, Maria's rabble-rousing skills look set to stir up revolution in the streets and disaster for the country. Can Raymond, Leon and Mirabelle stop Maria from destroying Britain, and their leader George?
This story continues the story from 'The Girl from Heavytree Farm' and is continued in 'Four Days in October'.Alle Rechte vorbehalten

I belong to a stranger (PUBLISHING) Belong Book 1 - Unedited von kiarasinha

WARNING: THIS BOOK IS CUTE, HOT, SWEET, SEXY, ROMANTIC, MUSSY, DRAMATIC, EMOTIONAL, INTENSE. Beware. EXTRACT (SUMMARY BELOW): “Like father, like son” The truth of the words hit me then. A cruel smile caught up with me. Somewhere at the back of my head, I couldn’t believe what I had just said, but I refused to let the guilt creep into me. If I called him huge before, I didn’t know what I should be calling him now. His entire six and a half foot frame began expanding animistic-ally. Charging like an angry bull, he reached me in two long strides. His eyes budging in fury. As suddenly as he started, he stopped. “You said what?” “Monster” I whispered back. But unwillingly my eyes dropped on the floor. No he did not scare me, but I could not bring myself to look into his eyes after what I just said to him. Nonetheless, he was a monster. Next thing I know, his large rough hands pulls my waist to his torso. Shocked, I looked at him. My eyes flared at his, my eyebrows raised in aftershocks. I flinched at his touch, but his arm kept me in place. I couldn’t no longer read his eyes. He used his free arm to grip my chin and pull it until my neck stretched back, until I looked directly at him. “Say that again” he repeated. ***########*** Curiosity kills the cat. She had never expected the cost of peeking into a stranger’s room to be her freedom. Rosaline James was what we might call a goody-two-shoe. Her dream trip to England gives her more than she bargained for. Fun, excitement she was expecting, but what she never expected was to fall under the mercy of a monstrous possessive billionaire. Nathan Hamilton. She is certain that dangerous trip to London and back to America under the ruthless Hamilton heir would make her experience heights of hatred. But yet why does it feel like she has instead found the key to love? --------------------- FOLLOW ME TO HAVE ACCESS TO THE ENTIRE BOOK.

The Cinderella Bride (NaNoWriMo14) von WrittenInMyHeart

{NaNoWriMo14} THIS IS UNEDITED, RUSHED AND REALLY REALLY BAD. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK CAUSE THIS ISNT MY BEST WORK. Ava Montgomery works at Bloomsbury Cafe in Manhattan. Carter Richmond is the heir to Richmond Corp one of the biggest companies in the country. Now, why would two very different people from very different backgrounds even breathe the same air? Well, you see, George Montgomery, Ava's father had recently passed and with his passing, he has left a two point five million dollar debt to the only daughter willing enough to pay it. Carter had just recently earned himself an ultimatum. A chance meeting with Carter an old childhood friend of hers will help them get what they want. Carter offers to remove Ava's entire debt and make her life easier if she agrees to marry him but on one condition. She must not fall in love with him. It seems reasonable since Carter is not the kind of guy Ava would be interested in but opposites do attract. And an ordinary girl thrown in a world full of glitz and glamour is definitely not a perfect mix.

Spiral Knot (An Office Dark Romance) von Averyaaaaaa

"Now my job is on the line, and Opal and Ivy is about to lose the contract. It wouldn't even take you a damn minute to sign it and get it over with. But no, you choose to play your little power games and refuse to sign. And now you've had the audacity to sue me? You think you can sue me, Gabriel? After everything you did to me, you think you can sue me? I should have done more than just hit you. I should have grabbed your balls, crushed them, made the server fry them, and fed them to your precious employees and then watched them eat it-" I stopped abruptly, my breathing heavy and ragged, my eyes locked onto his face. Gabriel had stopped typing, his fingers frozen above the keyboard. But what really held my attention were his eyes. One was a pale, almost ghostly grey with flecks of hazel, while the other was a deep, warm hazel. A flicker of amusement danced across his features, and he let out a low, almost mocking laugh. Dimples. "Crush my balls?" "No... I... uh meant that-" I straightened up, trying to regain my composure. "I didn't really mean your balls." ♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤ Daphne Hawthorne was living her best life as a recent graduate until she met a mysterious Spanish man with hazel eyes and a flirty smile.
