Her destiny wasn’t to be a man’s arm candy! Zarah Andromeda Busain had known what her role as a princess of Tasain would be since she could first walk and talk. That didn’t mean she agreed with it. From the beginning, she fought against those expectations, challenging them and asking why. So when it came down to the point of choosing a husband from a group of ten, she chose none. She followed a friend to a small town outside of London, infuriating her older brother but finding peace and satisfaction in helping others. That peace was shattered the day Derrick Huntington walked into her world. He was big and huge and disgustingly handsome with a confidence that irritated her beyond words. And when he touched her, she forgot to breathe, when he kissed her, she forgot to remember that he wasn’t the man she could marry. Derrick couldn’t believe that the perfect woman for him had been discovered right in his own little village. She was beautiful, smart and didn’t want him in any way. But when he touched her, she shivered. When he kissed her, she melted in his arms, kissing him back with a passion that drove him wild. The woman had a secret though. And when that secret had her disappear, Derrick moved heaven and earth to find the woman he loved. Even when it meant facing down a powerful sheik and older brother, he was going to find his woman and bring her back.

Drawing upon recent scholarship in Renaissance studies regarding notions of the body, political, physical and social, this study examines how the satiric tragedians of the English Renaissance employ the languages of sex - including sexual slander, titillation, insinuation and obscenity - in the service of satiric aggression. There is a close association between the genre of satire and sexually descriptive language in the period, author Gabriel Rieger argues, particularly in the ways in which both the genre and the languages embody systems of oppositions. In exploring the various purposes which sexually descriptive language serves for the satiric tragedian, Rieger reviews a broad range of texts, ancient, Renaissance, and contemporary, by satiric tragedians, moralists, medical writers and critics, paying particular attention to the works of William Shakespeare, Thomas Middleton and John Webster

'Nothing gets me to a bookstore faster than Eloisa James' - Julia Quinn Once upon a time, not so very long ago... Tarquin, the powerful Duke of Sconce, knows perfectly well that the decorous and fashionably slender Georgiana Lytton will make him a proper duchess. So why can't he stop thinking about her twin sister, the curvy, headstrong, and altogether unconventional Olivia? Not only is Olivia betrothed to another man, but their improper - albeit intoxicating - flirtation makes her unsuitability all the more clear. Determined to make a perfect match, he methodically cuts Olivia from his thoughts, allowing logic and duty to triumph over passion . . . until, in his darkest hour, Tarquin begins to question whether perfection has anything to do with love. To win Olivia's hand he would have to give up all the beliefs he holds most dear, and surrender heart, body and soul - but it may already be too late.

His wicked desire could free her. . . Strikingly handsome, wealthy, and accomplished, Brian Donovan has succeeded in everything he puts his mind to--except marriage. Now, as a favor to his former military commander Teddy Roosevelt, Brian is investigating a powerful new weapon invented in the small European country of Eisengau. The task carries prestige, danger, and an enticing complication in the lithe form of Meredith Duncan. With her deliciously candid approach to all things sensual, Meredith is unlike any woman Brian has known. In fact, she wants him to ruin her reputation--and Brian eagerly obliges, initiating a passionate, playful, and wildly erotic affair. . . Or enslave her. . . A feminist who believes in free love, Meredith has always battled convention. When her parents urge her toward an odious marriage, Meredith turns to the dashing, thoroughly masculine American who could be her only hope of escape. But nothing is as simple as it seems, and as competition to acquire the new weapon turns deadly, two lovers are drawn into a treacherous game where the stakes run as high as their raw, mutual desire, and the greatest risk of all may lie within an untested and all-consuming love. . .
