<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Brazilian Acacia Santos excels at her job as concierge at the prestigious Hotel Victoire in Paris. When her senior colleague is attacked and sent to the hospital, she is tasked with serving one of the hotel’s most mysterious and attractive guests.</span><br />
<br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;" />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Nicholas Cassirer checks into the hotel under an assumed name every three months. Usually, he stays in the penthouse suite with a beautiful female companion but on this occasion, he arrives alone and is displeased in having to deal with someone new. A match of wits ensues as he tests Acacia’s expertise with a series of almost impossible demands. Her intelligence and creativity rise to the challenge, earning his respect.</span><br />
<br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;" />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">They strike a tenuous accord until Acacia discovers a famous stolen painting in his suite. Compelled to report her discovery, she contacts a former boyfriend who works for the elite BRB, a unit of French law enforcement that deals with stolen art.</span><br />
<br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;" />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Nicholas is questioned by police and released when it is revealed the painting is a reproduction. Irked with her behavior, Acacia’s supervisor demotes her, threatening dismissal and the cancellation of her work permit.</span><br />
<br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;" />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">But Acacia has already attracted Nicholas’s attention. Remorseful that she may lose her job on his account, he offers her a choice—she can wait until her supervisor dismisses her, or she can leave the city of lights behind and become his personal assistant.</span><br />
<br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;" />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Acacia initially refuses his offer, but Nicholas is persistent. He reveals himself as a man who quietly acquires stolen art in order to restore it to its rightful owners. Faced with mounting familial debts and the possibility of dismissal and deportation, she agrees to work for him.</span><br />
<br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;" />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Nicholas opens up a whole new world of beauty and intrigue to Acacia as they travel the globe. Soon the line between employer and assistant is blurred, and the two lonely people embark on a passionate relationship.</span><br />
<br style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;" />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Secrets and danger abound as Nicholas and Acacia try to solve the mystery of a piece of stolen art. But Acacia may prove to be the most dangerous mystery of all.</span></div>

What is the Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge?</h4>
<ul style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; text-align: start;">
<li style="padding-bottom: 10px;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Now in its 9th year, the <a href="http://www.scholastic.com/summer" style="color: #006699; text-decoration: none;">Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge</a> is a free online/mobile reading program dedicated to stopping the “Summer Slide” by encouraging kids to read throughout the summer months when school is out.</span></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 10px;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Starting May 4, 2015, kids can log their reading minutes (online and on smartphones) as they <i><b>Read for the World Record</b></i>, enter sweepstakes to win fabulous prizes, and earn digital rewards when they complete weekly reading challenges. (Pre-Registration for educators begins on April 6, 2015.)</span></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 10px;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">This year’s theme is <strong>"Power Up and Read,"</strong> <b>sponsored by </b><strong>ENERGIZER</strong><sup><strong>®</strong></sup>.</span></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 10px;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"> 12 Scholastic authors will create our first-ever, collection of summer short stories that kids can “unlock” throughout the summer.</span></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 10px;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">In 2014, Scholastic inspired more than <b>275,000 kids</b> from <b>4,600 schools in all 50 States and 29 countries</b>to set a new record for summer reading of <b>304,749,681 minutes</b>!</span></li>

Dear Reader,</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; text-align: -webkit-left;">
Looking for a way to bide the time until <em><strong>Written In My Own Heart's Blood</strong></em>?</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; text-align: -webkit-left;">
#1 New York Times bestselling author Diana Gabaldon returns to her Outlander universe in <em><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IWSZMNC?ie=UTF8&tag=randohouseinc70182-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=1789&creativeASIN=B00IWSZMNC&Ref=Email_RHPG_4/16/2014" target="_blank">The Space Between</a></strong></em>, an irresistible novella brimming with adventure, history, and suspense—and available for the first time as a standalone eBook for only $1.99.</div>

Joan MacKimmie is on her way to Paris to take up her vocation as a nun. Yet her decision is less a matter of faith than fear, for Joan is plagued by mysterious voices that speak of the future, and by visions that mark those about to die. The sanctuary of the nunnery promises respite from these unwanted visitations . . . or so she prays. Her chaperone is Michael Murray, a young widower who, though he still mourns the death of his wife, finds himself powerfully drawn to his charge. But when the time-traveling Comte St. Germain learns of Joan's presence in Paris, and of her link to Claire Fraser—La Dame Blanche—Murray is drawn into a battle whose stakes are not merely the life but the very soul of the Scotswoman who, without even trying, has won his heart.</div>

Even better: This eNovella also features a preview of the forthcoming and much-anticipated <strong><em>Written in My Own Heart's Blood</em></strong>!</div>

Abandoned by his father, Theo is taken in by the family of a wealthy friend. Bewildered by his strange new home on Park Avenue, disturbed by schoolmates who don't know how to talk to him, and tormented above all by his longing for his mother, he clings to the one thing that reminds him of her: a small, mysteriously captivating painting that ultimately draws Theo into the underworld of art.</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.399999618530273px; text-align: start;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.399999618530273px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.399999618530273px; text-align: start;">As an adult, Theo moves silkily between the drawing rooms of the rich and the dusty labyrinth of an antiques store where he works.

August and September are a favorite time of year for me — back to school season! I love the early apples, store displays of school supplies, and my first sighting of a big yellow school bus. I would love to send each of you a bouquet of sharpened pencils. My reading orientation turns from the purely pleasurable beach book to another kind of pleasure: learning something new. To give myself and others a little structure during this transition, I’m starting the Back to School Reading Challenge and Wednesday Book Club to run during the months of August and September.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
No one fails at the Back to School Reading Challenge, so choose a level that works to challenge you but not so much it causes stress. Here are the levels:</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong style="background-color: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Freshman</strong>: 1-2 books<br /><strong style="background-color: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Sophomore</strong>: 3-4 books<br /><strong style="background-color: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Junior</strong>: 5-6 books<br /><strong style="background-color: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Senior</strong>: 7-8 books</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Read books on one topic or eight different ones or anything in between. Fiction is fine. I’ve learned a lot of history from novels set in other times and a lot about other cultures from novels set in other places. As long as you’re reading the book to learn something new, it counts for the Back to School Reading Challenge.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
A sign-up post is not required, but it does help spread the word. If you write one, link it below so we can all see who is playing. Feel free to grab the logo and to ask for suggestions for books in your categories of study.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #292929; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 17.600000381469727px; margin-bottom: 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
There will be a new post each Wednesday in August and September with a link list for any discussions or reviews related to the Back to School Reading Challenge. On four Wednesdays, there will also be a Twitter Chat. More about that later. We may also do a read-along if there’s interest.</div>

Or so I told myself. Later, I’d question that, as I would question pretty much everything I knew about me, my relationships, and my desires. It all began when my neighbor thrust a key to a storage unit at me. She’d bought it to make extra money after watching some storage auction show. Now she was on her way to the airport to elope with a man she barely knew, and she needed me to clear out the unit before the lease expires.</span><span id="freeText17597777692004180263"><br /></span><span id="freeText17597777692004180263">Soon, I was standing inside a small room that held the intimate details of another woman’s life, feeling uncomfortable, as if I was invading her privacy. Why had she let these items so neatly packed, possessions that she clearly cared about deeply, be lost at an auction? Driven to find out by some unnamed force, I began to dig, to discover this woman’s life, and yes, read her journals—-dark, erotic journals that I had no business reading. Once I started, I couldn’t stop. I read on obsessively, living out fantasies through her words that I’d never dare experience on my own, compelled by the three men in her life, none of whom had names. I read onward until the last terrifying dark entry left me certain that something had happened to this woman. I had to find her and be sure she was okay.</span><span id="freeText17597777692004180263">Before long, I was taking her job for the summer at the art gallery, living her life, and she was nowhere to be found. I was becoming someone I didn’t know. I was becoming her.</span><span id="freeText17597777692004180263"><br /></span><span id="freeText17597777692004180263"><strong>The dark, passion it becomes…</strong></span><span id="freeText17597777692004180263"><br /></span><span id="freeText17597777692004180263">Now, I am working at a prestigious gallery, where I have always dreamed of being, and I’ve been delivered to the doorstep of several men, all of which I envision as one I’ve read about in the journal. But there is one man that will call to me, that will awaken me in ways I never believed possible. That man is the ruggedly sexy artist, Chris Merit, who wants to paint me. He is rich and famous, and dark in ways I shouldn’t find intriguing, but I do. I <em>so</em> do. I don’t understand why his dark side appeals to me, but the attraction between us is rich with velvety promises of satisfaction. Chris is dark, and so are his desires, but I cannot turn away. He is damaged beneath his confident good looks and need for control, and in some way, I feel he needs me. I <em>need</em> him.</span><span id="freeText17597777692004180263">All I know for certain is that he knows me like I don’t even know me, and he says I know him. Still, I keep asking myself — do <em>I</em> know <em>him</em>? Did he know her, <em>the journal writer</em>, and where is she? And why doesn’t it seem to matter anymore? There is just him and me, and the burn for more.</span></blockquote>

But as Camilla grows to womanhood, she realizes that her "rescue" was part of gang leader Big Brother Wang's scheme. Camilla is trained in singing, dancing, knife-throwing and contortion - all to attract the attention of Wang's enemy, the ruthless Master Lung. Forced to become Master Lung's mistress, Camilla meets two other intriguing women. Shadow is a magician and rival for Master Lung's affections, while Rainbow Chang dresses like a man and wields power through her incendiary gossip column. Both pose risks to Camilla's safety and status. But an even greater danger comes in the form of Master Lung's eldest son, Jinying, who despises his father's violent lifestyle - but loves Camilla. Only by plotting to eliminate Lung can she make her escape, but at what cost?</span></span></em></div>

<span style="color: #073763;"><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">When thirty-year-old English teacher Anna Emerson is offered a job tutoring T.J. Callahan at his family's summer rental in the Maldives, she accepts without hesitation; a working vacation on a tropical island trumps the library any day.</span></i></span></blockquote>
<blockquote>
<i><span style="color: #073763;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">T.J. Callahan has no desire to leave town, not that anyone asked him.

Adrift in shark-infested waters, their life jackets keep them afloat until they make it to the shore of an uninhabited island. Now Anna and T.J. just want to survive and they must work together to obtain water, food, fire, and shelter. Their basic needs might be met but as the days turn to weeks, and then months, the castaways encounter plenty of other obstacles, including violent tropical storms, the many dangers lurking in the sea, and the possibility that T.J.'s cancer could return. As T.J. celebrates yet another birthday on the island, Anna begins to wonder if the biggest challenge of all might be living with a boy who is gradually becoming a man.</span></span></i></blockquote>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">Levi’s work spans genre lines from YA to adult literature and touches on coming</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">of age themes that appeal to readers of all ages. Love, self-acceptance, dark and</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">edgy Christian fiction, violence and fear are all explored in his books. With a touch</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">of literary fiction and a raw edginess, he writes in a distinct voice that is hard to</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">categorize but worth taking the time to get to know.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">“I vow never to take my blood brother’s woman…”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">“…and I vow never to leave him in trouble…”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">“…and I vow never to take anything of his…”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">“…and I vow never to lie to him…”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">“…so help me God.”</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">The young are going to live forever, and they know it. When you’re young, you</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">can cut your hand with a dirty piece of bottle glass from the town dump, and it’s</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">okay, because you’re going to live forever. There will be no pain and no blood. There</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">will be no regrets. You can lie to your best friend, you can steal the very substance of</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">his dreams, and pay no price, because you’re immortal.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">When the shadow finally sweeps you up in its slow omnipotent crawl, it is not</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">life that you are leaving behind. It is youth. It is the immortality of belief, of knowing</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;">that you can cut your hand, you can kiss a girl, you can steal from your blood brother</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #20124d;"><i>Here's an Excerpt</i>:</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">Standing back away from the blinds, almost hiding, Lucy watches his truck until she can no</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">longer see the early sun flashing from the pitted chrome. She moves to the back door, the</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">last of the morning’s coffee in her hand. She needs to clean the kitchen, do the dishes, make</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">bread. Get the eggs in, turn the compost, hoe the eager weeds from the garden. She needs to</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">go shopping. She needs to do all that, but first, she needs to stand here and gaze down the</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">long gravel road into her childhood.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">There was a time when things were simple. When life was friends and games and school,</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">when even school was mostly the playground. There was a long, easy time of climbing</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">trees and playing monkeys, chasing each other through the dusty leaves and the bitter green</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">cherries. Then she looked down and saw Denny gazing up at her like there was something</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">he wanted, something on a pedestal he could never climb high enough to reach, and life</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">changed in that moment.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">She decided, late that night, the night of the day that she’d seen Denny watching her, to</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">start a diary, and she carefully cut all the used pages out of a spiral notebook from school.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">She wrote “My Diary” on the front cover, and embellished it with hearts and flowers and a</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">pony’s head, and then she put it in her top dresser drawer until she could decide on the best</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">way to say “I saw Denny Martin watching me today, and something woke up.” She never</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">did decide, and the “diary” got thrown away empty a long time later, but over the years since</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">then, she’s picked and worried at that one entry a thousand times, and never gotten it any</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">better. I saw Denny Martin watching me today, and something woke up.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">At three in the morning on her first day as Mrs Dennis Martin, knowing no other way to</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">voice the joy and fulfillment that had become her life in those moments the day before, she</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">sat in the bathroom and sobbed as silently as she could, smiling so hard it hurt, the most</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">joyous pain she’d ever felt. Mrs Dennis Martin. Lucy Martin. Lucy Springer Martin. Lucille</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">Ball Springer Martin, actually, and she’d sworn him to secrecy three times in a row before</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">she told him her middle name.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">And now, nearly thirty years later, she still feels both, the pain and the joy, the longing and</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">the fulfillment, every moment of every day. All she wanted, all she needed, was him, and</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">all she wants and needs now is for him to be happy. There is no belief in her that a woman</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">needs a man in any magic way, or that no unmarried woman can be happy or complete or</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">fulfilled, only that she needed him, only that she could never be all of herself until he was half</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">of her.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">She begins to stack the dishes, running water, squirting soap, watching the tiny bubbles float</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">in the strong light through the window. She stands there, not washing, not scrubbing, just</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">watching the bubbles rise like prayers in the silent house.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">Gardening always calms her. It centers her, it reminds her of everything she’s ever loved, of</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">why we’re here, of how our days are supposed to pass. Except today. Today her eyebrows</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">keep drawing together, today her jaw keeps tightening. Today, the hoe loses its rhythmic</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">scuffle and begins to chop angrily. Halfway through each row, she has to stop and breathe.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">She has to stop and pray.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">Midway through the afternoon, she suddenly lays her hoe aside and heads for the house,</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">walking fast, scrubbing her hands on the seat of her jeans. She ransacks the pantry with no</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">particular thought in mind except make it nice, her face pressed together in something close</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">to pain, something damp and edgy. She finds the last of her dried apples, vacuum-packed in</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">glass jars, and a tiny smile dawns in the storm of her face.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">Flour, sugar, cinnamon, allspice, butter, her mind calls out, answering itself check, check, check, check,</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">check. Pork and potatoes and salad, and dried-apple pie, and she’ll wear that new dress, the</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">red one he liked so much he couldn’t wait to get it off of her. A stack of 70’s rock on the</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">CD changer and cranked loud, the house smelling of pie crust and pork roast, she begins to</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">dust.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Yes, I read </span><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0345803485/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=httpthebookinn.blogspot.com-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0345803485"><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Fifty Shades of Grey: Book One of the Fifty Shades Trilogy</span></a><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=httpthebookinn.blogspot.com-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0345803485" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; margin: 0px;" width="1" /> and I did love it. It was not so much the steamy parts that I loved but the whole story line. It was intense with moments of giggles, heavy sigh, irritation, anger, well just about all the major emotions. After reading 50, like a lot of women, decided I wanted to read more of the same type of story and after reading many suggestions, it was Gabriel's Inferno next. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">WELL, this book was so much more better!! Yes same type of story, rich, hot guy meets young virginal girl, becomes over the top obsessive/jealous, girl leaves guy a few times, guy stalks after her, ends up getting married.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">BUT, the story was so much more. The hot rich guy Gabriel Emerson is a Dante professor and Anastasia is his student and throughout the book, there is many reference to Dante and Beatrice. So many beautiful, lyrical poetic reference to Dante and his love for Beatrice which Gabriel refers to Anastasia as his Beatrice and the romance and passion is utterly swoonful!</span><br />
<br />
<i>“I will remember your scent and your touch and how it felt to love you. But most of all, I will remember how it felt to gaze at true beauty, both inside and out. For you are fair, my beloved, in soul and in body, generous of spirit and generous of heart. And I will never see anything this side of heaven more beautiful than you.” </i><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here is the synopsis from Goodreads:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Enigmatic and sexy, Professor Gabriel Emerson is a well respected Dante specialist by day, but by night he devotes himself to an uninhibited life of pleasure. He uses his notorious good looks and sophisticated charm to gratify his every whim, but is secretly tortured by his dark past and consumed by the profound belief that he is beyond all hope of redemption. </span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When the sweet and innocent Julia Mitchell enrolls as his graduate student, his attraction and mysterious connection to her not only jeopardizes his career, but sends him on a journey in which his past and his present collide.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">An intriguing and sinful exploration of seduction, forbidden love and redemption, “Gabriel's Inferno” is a captivating and wildly passionate tale of one man's escape from his own personal hell as he tries to earn the impossible...forgiveness and love.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">NB: This book was a semi-finalist for Best Romance in the 2011 Goodreads Choice Awards</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Please note that there are many "steamy" moments but if love a good romance I highly recommend this book. There is also a a sequal </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00851LAKK/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=httpthebookinn.blogspot.com-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00851LAKK">Gabriel's Rapture (Gabriel's Inferno Series)</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=httpthebookinn.blogspot.com-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00851LAKK" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; margin: 0px;" width="1" /> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #20124d;">Which is even more romantic, steamy and swoonful!</span></span><br />

<div style="color: #660000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I finally have a day to read, blog and just plain be lazy! Since I've gone back to the office, I haven't had the energy to blog or do anything on the computer. But we've been bike riding, trying to lose weight and I'm finally getting used to the schedule. My son has also been making friends and is adjusting to our new home. The weather has been wonderful too! Not hot not cold but the fall chill is in the air.<br />
<br />
Since we've moved I have read so many great books.

Faith Mitchell’s mother isn’t answering her phone. Her front door is open. There’s a bloodstain above the knob. Her infant daughter is hidden in a shed behind the house. All that the Georgia Bureau of Investigations taught Faith Mitchell goes out the window when she charges into her mother’s house, gun drawn. She sees a man dead in the laundry room. She sees a hostage situation in the bedroom. What she doesn’t see is her mother. . . .<br />
<br />
<i>“You know what we’re here for. Hand it over, and we’ll let her go.”</i><br />
<br />
When the hostage situation turns deadly, Faith is left with too many questions, not enough answers. To find her mother, she’ll need the help of her partner, Will Trent, and they’ll both need the help of trauma doctor Sara Linton. But Faith isn’t just a cop anymore—she’s a witness. She’s also a suspect.<br />
<br />
The thin blue line hides police corruption, bribery, even murder. Faith will have to go up against the people she respects the most in order to find her mother and bring the truth to light—or bury it forever. <br />
<br />
Karin Slaughter’s most exhilarating novel yet is a thrilling journey through the heart and soul, where the personal and the criminal collide, and conflicted loyalties threaten to destroy reputations and ruin lives. It is the work of a master of the thriller at the top of her game, and a whirlwind of unrelenting suspense. <br />

New York City has a monster on the loose and his name is Tarryn Cooper Love. <br />
No one had given a second glance to the handsome taxi driver, but in reality he had been molded to be a killer since early childhood. His mother, who valued a juicy murder above all else, had taught him well. Just one more trophy and he is set to reach his goal, surpassing his mother's idol, the infamous Ted Bundy. <br />
THE PREY<br />
When a beautiful young woman gets into his cab flashing a wad of cash, he thinks he's hit the jackpot. As she starts confessing her plans for ending her own life he decides to listen to her story, hoping to charm her back from the brink of death, to heighten his game. <br />
What he discovers is a twisted tale that has taken her from the hardened streets of LA to the upper crust of New York...a story that might even rival his own. <br />
Tarryn has to decide within the space of 24 hours, if he should kill her or save her - and perhaps save himself in the process.<br />

Janessa McNeil's husband, Dr. Brock McNeil, has spent his life "proving" chronic Lyme Disease doesn't exist. Because of doctors like Brock many Lyme patients remain untreated. One embittered man--who lost his wife to the disease--has seen enough. He breaks into the mcneil's house and places an infected tick on Jannie while she sleeps. After jannie develops Lyme symptoms the man states his demand--or her daughter will be next. Jannie must convince her husband to publicly change his opinion about Lyme. But her marriage is already rocky. She's so sick she can hardly walk or think. And her husband denies that she has Lymes at all.</td> </tr>
