Luke Hartwell's Nathan's Story is a powerful follow-up to his Atom Heart John Beloved. Hartwell has taken Keith Hale's novella Space as the vehicle to introduce an attractive new character, Harper, to the story of Nathan and John. Hartwell intertwines the story of Nathan and Harper with the story of Nathan and John while avoiding a rehash of old information from Atom Heart John Beloved. Like the first book, Nathan's Story makes readers think, can produce tears, and will bring plenty of smiles.

Keith Hale, editor of Friends & Apostles: The Correspondence of Rupert Brooke and James Strachey, 1905-1914, here examines the bowdlerization of Brooke in existing biographies and looks into the poet's self-proclaimed bisexual identity. Hale examines the same-sex relationships Brooke enjoyed with Michael Sadleir, Charles Lascelles, and Denham Russell-Smith as well as the poems Brooke may have written about these early loves. As with many boys of his generation, Brooke's public school days affected him more profoundly than any period of his life. During his years at Rugby, Brooke was involved in romantic relationships with three boys. In order, Denham Russell-Smith entered Rugby in May 1902, age thirteen. Michael Sadleir followed in May 1903, age fourteen, making him and Denham the same age. Charles Lascelles entered in May 1904 at age fourteen. Thus, two of Brooke's Rugby loves were two years his junior, and the boy he appears to have loved most, Lascelles, was three years younger.

Tan hermosa, valiente y adelantada a su tiempo que William S.

Grandma Bekka, Delaney Kullerton's adorable 80-something grandmother, sits in the office of a carefully vetted high-class male escort service, flipping through glossy pages of their explicit, full-color catalog to select the prime candidate to fulfill her granddaughter's lifelong Viking fantasies. At least that's what Delaney assumes when a gorgeous, half-naked man appears on her doorstep, dressed in full Viking regalia, including horned Brunhilda helmet, sword and shield. In broken English, he tells Delaney he's Varik the Bold…and he wants to play. Tired of being a rule-following goody-two-shoes, she considers taking the big blonde muscled hunk of goodness up on his tempting offer. Why shouldn't she? Especially after Delaney's cheating, arrogant, condescending English professor husband blindsides her, leaving her for one of his perky graduate students-on Delaney's Valentine's Day birthday, no less. It's clear her beloved grandmother's estate is following Bekka's instructions, ensuring Delaney won't be alone and grieving on her birthday. Obviously, Varik the Bold is her grandmother's final parting gift. Right? A major misunderstanding, a dog-instigated chocolate disaster, and Odin's magic heartwish ring have Delaney packing her bags and moving across the country from Chicago to a small coastal town in Oregon to escape her mortification. The Viking's Heartwish is book 1 of the Heartwishes series. This full-length contemporary romance novel is full of warmth and humor-with a very special touch of magic. It's inspired by the author's previously published novelette, Caroline's Christmas Viking. While all Heartwishes books are part of a standalone series, you'll enjoy them more if you read them in order. These are small town romances with happily-ever-afters, and no cliffhangers.
