【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Santa's Special Present【電子書籍】[ Sue Teri ]

＜p＞Do you believe in Santa Claus? No? Who could blame you since Christmas has become so commercialized that even the devout “I still believe” Santa Claus hopefuls; the ones that hang on to the magical side of Christmas, get lost in the shuffle and bustle of what has become Christmas.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Teri used to be one of those “I still believe” in the magic of Santa Claus and all that entails but not anymore. She has lost all pretense of believing in Santa and the giving of gifts just for the joy of putting a smile on someone’s face. Now it’s all rush…standing in lines at the mall, fighting others who want the same game or piece of clothing for their child. All Teri could think about was can I make it out of the mall in one piece without being trampled on.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Teri spent all day trying to find the perfect gift for her family and friends while fighting off the frenzy. When Teri finally emerged 45 minutes before closing, it started to snow gently, almost magically. Teri stuck out her tongue and a big snowflake landed on her tongue and reminded her of days gone by when Santa truly existed. Standing there for a moment, she realized that she needed to buy herself a gift, something to make her feel good about herself.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Teri knew the perfect place. Victoria’s Secret. Sexy lingerie always made her feel special. She needed that after a day like today. Teri rushed back into the mall, to her favorite store. She was surprised to find only a couple people checking out before the store closed. Grabbing a teddy, she dashed to the dressing room, quickly stripped and put on the flimsy lingerie. Instantaneously, her body relaxed and she could feel her inner sexuality emerging.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Wanting another item and running out of time, she went out into the store still dressed in the teddy. Only two of the saleswomen were left in the store. Feeling frisky, Teri turned to the women to ask their advice on how she looked. Teri got more than she bargained for while they examine her. They told her that they were closing up because Santa was coming by to deliver his “presents” to them and they invited Teri to stay and be Santa’s gift.＜/p＞ ＜p＞What came next had Teri believing in Santa again. Maybe, you will start believing also＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】None But My Foe【電子書籍】[ David Duncan ]

＜p＞＜strong＞None But My Foe＜/strong＞, first published in 1950, is a novel set in California about a possible threat to a small town's water supply.＜br /＞ Stephen Smith, a novelist living in a small coastal town, values independence above all personal qualities. When his loving wife dies after a brief bout of pneumonia, he responds with anger rather than grief. He illogically places blame on the town's leaders, especially the mayor. In a plan to demonstrate their dishonestly and incompetence, he fakes poisoning the local reservoir, then waits for them to manipulate the threat for their own purposes. The town's residents, however, prove more susceptible to fear than he had imagined. His plan works too well, and the situation quickly gets out of his control.＜br /＞ On one level what the author offers here is a parable about terrorism. Facing what they believe to be an attack, Duncan tells us, many people will become panicky and suggestible. This is true even if the danger is vague and unsubstantiated and the attacker is anonymous or perhaps non-existent. Their leaders, though they may not know the nature, extent or authenticity of the threat, will nevertheless take action in order to justify their positions of authority. Depending on what they decide to do, they may palliate, channel or exacerbate the fear. Lurking behind the terrorism tale is an examination of the protagonist's motives, which seem increasingly irrational as the story unwinds. Duncan delivers all this in his usual vigorous prose. The beginning of the narrative may actually move faster than necessary. Some episodes would be more plausible with additional time between the death of the wife and the hatching of the plot. All in all, though, this is a remarkable and surprisingly timely novel.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Worms in Fools' Fingers【電子書籍】[ MJ Watts ]

＜p＞When wickedness is confronted by righteousness, it is often difficult to tell them apart. Seventeenth century Europe has been ravaged by war for almost thirty years. The people are broken, starving, and riven by disease. Out of the devastation and their desperation for somewhere to lay the blame comes the terror of the witch persecutions. Udo Beck is a soldier who has survived a battle that he vows will be his last. Learning of the fortunes being made by witch confessors, he decides where his future lies - a decision that will change his very humanity and the lives of those around him. In the German state of Saxony, an outbreak of a horrific contagion is blamed on witchcraft, and the zealotry of an ambitious Bishop brings terror throughout the state. Disparate and memorable characters are brought together on the forested slopes of the Harz mountains where each must confront their own iniquities as their lives are seized by events and forces beyond their control. From England, from the frozen shores of the Baltic, and from the blue limpid waters of the Caribbean, The Worms in Fools' Fingers is an historical adventure - a tale of ambition, greed, and betrayal that destroys lives and families, and renders formerly unbreakable friendships asunder.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Merryll Manning: The Health Farm Murders【電子書籍】[ John Howard Reid ]

＜p＞Here is a review by Chantel Stewart, featured on the back page of the 1987 Large Print edition: Thirteen guests at a health farm -- an unknown killer -- remote and exotic settings in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales -- here are all the ingredients for a classic mystery thriller. Strongly plotted -- cleverly drawn and extremely interesting characters -- bright, believable dialog -- plenty of action and suspense -- as well as mystery -- "The Health Farm Murders" is a thriller well above the formula, with a climax that is absolutely stunning and unforgettable. The following review by Cherie Fisher appeared in "Reader Views", August, 2009: "Merryll Manning: The Health Farm Murders" is a well-written story full of intrigue and suspense that will keep you turning pages until the final surprising outcome. John Howard Reid wrote this story twelve years ago, and now it is finally making its way into the United States market. It is the second of twelve in the Merryll Manning series. The story is written about a town called Happy Valley, but it is actually based on a real town called Blackheath, in the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney, Australia. Merryll "Merry" Manning is taking a well-earned vacation from the Miami Police Department, or is he? He arrives at Sister Susan's Health Farm in Happy Valley, Australia, excited at the prospect of doing something healthy and restful from his stressful job. He quickly finds himself in the middle of an investigation as the other visitors at the health farm start dying. Police Sergeant Lambert is quick to blame Jimbo Punter, a local who had an affair with the Sergeant's wife. Merry is not convinced that Jimbo is involved and looks at everyone as a suspect. Each of the suspects is a very colorful character, but do they have the potential of turning into a deadly killer? The author does an excellent job of describing the local countryside in detail. The story setting is in a beautiful valley that was burned by fire. It includes a harrowing hike through the sometimes beautiful, sometimes desolate terrain that has many landslides, sheer cliffs and rivers ? all places for people to meet unfortunate ends. As Merry is fully immersed in this nightmare, he finds part of the truth to what has been happening as he almost loses his life. The other part of the truth comes out later and is very surprising. I recommend "Merryll Manning: The Health Farm Murders" by John Howard Reid to mystery fans; it makes for a great summer read. Leonard Ward wrote in "The Canberra Times": "Merryll Manning: The Health Farm Murders" has already attracted some attention overseas, so it's pleasing to report that this book, set in a thinly disguised Blackheath in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney, fully deserves that strong commendation. The action takes place at Sister Susan's Health Farm off Govett's Leap Road In Blackheath (called Selkirk in the novel). That establishment has a revolting vegetarian regime, although the author maintains that Sister Susan's peculiar ideas are actually "based on the diets advocated by highly-respected nutritionists. When not delving into diets and other aspects of "healthy" living, the author displays considerable powers of invention. His very fertile imagination enables him to create some extremely sticky situations for his murder-investigator hero before the book's culprit is eventually found. It is a measure of the author's inventiveness that "Merryll Manning: The Health Farm Murders" always claims the reader's complete attention. This novel is a most commendable mystery thriller which fully deserves its overseas' acclaim.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Leaders of the Army of Northern Virginia The Lives and Careers of Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, James Longstreet, and JEB Stuart【電子書籍】

＜p＞With the exception of George Washington, perhaps the most famous general in American history is ＜strong＞Robert E. Lee＜/strong＞ (January 19, 1807 ? October 12, 1870), despite the fact he led the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia against the Union in the Civil War. As the son of U.S. Revolutionary War hero Henry "Light Horse Harry" Lee III, and a relative of Martha Custis Washington, Lee was imbued with a strong sense of honor and duty from the beginning. And as a top graduate of West Point, Lee had distinguished himself so well before the Civil War that President Lincoln asked him to command the entire Union Army. Lee famously declined, serving his home state of Virginia instead after it seceded.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Lee is remembered today for constantly defeating the Union’s Army of the Potomac in the Eastern theater from 1862-1865, considerably frustrating Lincoln and his generals. His leadership of his army led to him being deified after the war by some of his former subordinates, especially Virginians, and he came to personify the Lost Cause’s ideal Southern soldier. His reputation was secured in the decades after the war as a general who brilliantly led his men to amazing victories against all odds.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Thomas Jonathan Jackson is one of the most famous generals of the Civil War, but many of the people he continues to fascinate probably don’t remember his whole name. That’s because Jackson earned his famous “Stonewall” moniker at the First Battle of Manassas or Bull Run, when Brigadier-General Bee told his brigade to rally behind Jackson, whose men were standing like a stone wall. Ironically, it’s still unclear whether that was a compliment for standing strong or an insult for not moving his brigade, but the nickname stuck for the brigade and the general itself.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Jackson would only enhance his legend over the next two years, first leading his army on one of the most incredible campaigns of the war in the Shenandoah Valley in 1862.. Known as the Valley Campaign, Jackson kept 3 Union armies occupied north of Richmond with less than 1/3 of the men, marching his army up and down the Valley 650 miles in three months. The impressive feat helped his men earn the nickname “foot cavalry.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞One of the most important, and controversial, Confederate generals during the Civil War was Lieutenant General James Longstreet, the man Robert E. Lee called his “old war horse.” Longstreet was Lee’s principal subordinate for most of the war, ably managing a corps in the Army of Northern Virginia and being instrumental in Confederate victories at Second Bull Run, Fredericksburg, and Chickamauga. Longstreet was also effective at Antietam and the Battle of the Wilderness, where he was nearly killed by a shot through the neck.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Had Longstreet died on the field in early May 1864, he would almost certainly be considered one of the South’s biggest heroes. However, it was his performance at Gettysburg and arguments with other Southern generals after the Civil War that tarnished his image. After the South lost the war and Gettysburg came to be viewed as one of its biggest turning points, former Confederate generals looked to that battle to find scapegoats to blame for losing the war. Longstreet was charged with being slow to attack on the second day of the Battle of Gettysburg, allowing the Union to man Little Round Top. He also resisted Lee’s order for Pickett’s Charge the next day, making his criticisms clear both that day and after the war through his rightings. The fact that he served in Republican administrations after the Civil War rubbed his former comrades the wrong way, and the Georgian Longstreet’s criticism of Lee infuriated the Virginian Lost Cause advocates who idolized Lee.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Longstreet didn’t avoid his critics, facing them head on by fending off criticisms of his record for the most part, usually including letters written by other officers to his defense. Longstreet also didn’t pull punches, which he does at times quite poignantly on Lee's mishaps, most notably of course at Gettysburg. In other instances, he defends himself by criticizing others. When Fitz Lee notes that R.E. Lee called Longstreet the hardest man to move in the Army (a comment that can't be confirmed or refuted), he comes to his own defense in part by criticizing Stonewall Jackson during the Seven Days campaign. Hindsight is 20/20, and Longstreet's arguments in the conduct of certain campaigns certainly benefited from the passing of 30 years. At a number of places, Longstreet believes that if his suggestions were followed, the results could have destroyed Union armies or won the War. Nobody will ever be sure if he's right or wrong on these matters, though historians typically consider those kinds of statements bluster.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Lee’s Old Warhorse: The Life and Career of General James Longstreet＜/em＞ looks at the life and career of one of the South’s most important and controversial fighters, explaining his biggest accomplishments and discussing the biggest controversies.

＜p＞Russell takes the address from the shopkeeper and sets off for the shooting spot early in the morning. Upon reaching the location, he approaches the security guard at the gate and shows him a picture of actress Chumki.＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Is she here?" Russell asks eagerly, his eyes filled with hope.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The guard nods, eyeing him suspiciously. "Yes, madam is shooting inside."＜/p＞ ＜p＞Russell beams with excitement. "I am going to marry her! A fortune teller in my village predicted it. That's why I've come to marry her."＜/p＞ ＜p＞The guard's expression darkens with irritation. He lets out a scornful laugh. "Who the hell are you? Some random fraud fortune teller told you this nonsense, and you ran all the way here from your village? Get lost!" he barks and pushes Russell aside roughly.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Russell stumbles, barely keeping his balance. Tears well up in his eyes. "Brother, please believe me! I will marry her! Look, my mother has sent gifts for my new brideーmilk pitha, country chicken, date molasses, flattened rice, and puffed rice." His voice shakes as he eagerly opens the bundle to show the items, his hands trembling.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The guard's patience snaps. He loses his temper completely, grabs the bundle, and throws it onto the street. "Get out of here! Stop wasting my time!"＜/p＞ ＜p＞Russell feels as if the sky has collapsed upon him. His heart shatters as he kneels down, picking up the scattered items from the dust, his hands shaking. His mother's love, her efforts, all ruined in a second. Tears stream down his face as he sobs loudly, his voice filled with agony. "My mother worked so hard to make these for my bride, and you destroyed everything! How could you?"＜/p＞ ＜p＞The guard, now fully enraged, lifts a stick, ready to hit Russell. Just then, actress Chumki appears at the gate, talking on her phone. Her sharp eyes catch the moment the guard raises his stick.＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Hey! What's going on here?" she demands, her voice stern and commanding.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Russell looks up and recognizes her instantly. Overwhelmed, he bursts into uncontrollable tears. "Look! My mother sent all this for you, but this cruel man threw everything into the dirt!" His voice cracks as he holds up the dusty, ruined food with shaking hands.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Chumki, shocked and appalled, turns to the guard. "What have you done?"＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Forgive me, madam," the guard replies hesitantly, sensing her displeasure. "This lunatic came saying that some village fortune teller predicted he would marry you. So he brought all these items for you. I couldn't tolerate such nonsense."＜/p＞ ＜p＞Chumki is stunned. She looks at Russell, who continues crying, his face pale and exhausted. "Yes! The fortune teller said the moment I meet you, we'll be married. I've been wandering the city for two days without food, searching for you." His voice is barely a whisper as he sobs uncontrollably.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Chumki is taken aback by the blind faith of rural people. She doesn't blame Russell; she blames the fraudulent fortune tellers who mislead innocent minds. Her heart fills with compassion as she watches the young man, broken and desperate. She can see the sincerity in his eyes, the purity of his belief.＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Come with me," she tells Russell gently.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The guard stares at her in disbelief. "Madam, are you serious?"＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Yes," Chumki replies firmly. "Tell the production team to arrange some food for him. He hasn't eaten for two days."＜/p＞ ＜p＞She then kneels beside Russell and softly wipes his tears. "You must be very hungry. Let's get you something to eat first."＜/p＞ ＜p＞Russell looks at her in awe, as if she were an angel descending to save him. His heart, moments ago filled with sorrow, now feels a warmth he had never known before. Chumki helps him up and leads him inside the shooting spot, leaving the guard speechless. The world may be harsh, but in this moment, kindness prevails.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞As the floating mountain-castle appeared, so did the land-killing desert grow.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Their deserts had joined and were now expanding toward their coasts across the rest of China, making most all the inhabitants of that once great land into nomadic refugees.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Refugees that no nation-state would accept.＜/p＞ ＜p＞After a series of plagues started here and swept the world, the borders to neighboring countries were permanently closed. Who could blame them?＜/p＞ ＜p＞All that was left of that people's government was on top of a very large, floating rock.＜/p＞ ＜p＞By camel, it took weeks of crossing a dead desert to come to the dead, floating city that created it. And now we sat there, resting on our camels, in our hot caftans and turbans, halted in the thin shade of the immense mountain of rock floating above us.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The only entrance was by invitation. No mere magic worked here.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Lucky we had someone older than Earth itself to give us that invite.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Whether the persons up there agreed or not...＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞Excerpt:＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Remind me, Sal, why we are here again?"＜/p＞ ＜p＞Above us floated a massive mountain of rock, which was showering us at every small breeze with tiny stones and sand dust.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Taking shelter in it's thin shade for some relief from the moderate heat of the endless Gobi desert on all sides, it made for a very uncomfortable position. Even though the desert was cool compared to the Sahara and others, sweat was still a given at this time of day.

"Sorry, John. We're just waiting for someone to give us an invitation."＜/p＞ ＜p＞I shrugged. "Someone we know, I hope?"＜/p＞ ＜p＞The sand rumbled beneath our feet, and the camels got fidgety. I was used to writing books, walking pastures, tending quiet cattle on foot. Even my riding horses was a long time ago. But the past few days had gotten me used to these long-legged desert-beasts. Or so I thought. For me, a nervous camel just meant one thing: hang on for dear life.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Right at that thought, a sand devil spun up between the two of us.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Incubus Kiss【電子書籍】[ Skye Eagleday ]

＜p＞Incubus Kiss (Paranormal Adult Romance)＜/p＞ ＜p＞Luka is everyone’s sexual fantasy figure. Tonight he felt the ceremonial Call of a woman seeking revenge against the man she believed had wronged her. In other words, a typical evening. But there was nothing typical about the beautiful Jemma, who was lighting the final candle to Summon an Incubus. She demanded revenge. “Tucker is a homophobe,” she said, her voice filled with anger. “I want him to suffer humiliation, so I command you to seduce himーmake him your unresisting bitch.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Incubus discovers Tucker is like Jemma. Both carry an unknown Supernatural heritage and their interactions with Luka will bring all three to new heights of passion and Power. In another time, the couple would have become Shamans. But waking these special abilities for two modern day humans in the middle of a lover’s quarrel could pose all sorts of danger to everyone around them. Can the sexy Incubus use his skills of seduction and ultimate lust to save them all? (A steamy Adults Only story featuring explicit supernatural sex with two mostly humans, initiated by the most erotic and sensual of the Fae. Luka requires the passion of others to survive, but pays in the currency of mind-blowing and extreme orgasms.)＜/p＞ ＜p＞Excerpt:＜/p＞ ＜p＞Jemma＜/p＞ ＜p＞I was nursing the last of my two drinks while I waited for the Incubus to return. All I could think about was what it would be like to be with him. What skill he must have in bed. I felt guiltyーdirty. I wasn't focused on getting even with Tucker. Every time I closed my eyes, I would see those glowing red eyes spotted with pure white. I wondered what he would feel like underneath his clothesーwhat it would feel like to run my fingers through his thick chest hair. I sipped the last of my drink and realized my panties were damp.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I looked up and he was staring at me, standing outside of the Circle. He had changed clothes, and his eyes were exactly the same color as Tucker's. I felt a shiver of fear. “Did you steal his eyes?” I asked.＜/p＞ ＜p＞He grinned. “I'm an Incubus, not a Ghoul. I have no need to steal body partsーI am content to borrow them for a short time and help their owners fully enjoy them.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞“Can you change your appearance in other ways, too?”＜/p＞ ＜p＞He held still and suddenly Tucker was standing in front of me. He must have realized from my response this wasn't a good choice. He smiled and became Cary Grant. Then John Wayne. When he became Eddie Murphy, I started to laugh. “Can you go back to how you were when I Summoned you?” He nodded and once again he was the man I had been fantasizing about, his eyes redder than fresh blood. I studied him for a moment, and asked, “Is this your true form?”＜/p＞ ＜p＞Luka＜/p＞ ＜p＞I hated that question, since the answer was so complicated. I pumped up the charm factor and replied, “It is the face I see when I look in the mirror.” The best way to lie is to tell a truth. Just not the entire truth.＜/p＞ ＜p＞“And what is your name? I realize Incubus now sounds more like your title rather than your name.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞“Oh, knowing someone's true name gives you a certain Power over them, Jemma Mackenzie Farraday.” I moved a step closer to her as her eyebrows went up. “But you may call me Luka.” I noticed she had not asked me about Tucker, just as I had noticed her arousal and the echoes in her mind of what it would be like to be intimate with me.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Those fantasies told me she was not like Tucker. She wanted to be dominated the way no one would dominate her in the day or at her work. She wanted to give up all responsibility for her sexual desires. She wanted to be the innocent one, and blame the Big Bad Incubus. I enjoyed a sip of the scotch she had offered me and she drank half of hers in one swallow. Scotch should only be taken that way as self-medication. I took another step forward, giving my movement the slightest hint of menace. Her heart beat sped up.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
