DAIĻĀ MARGARETA

Raiders Hegards

no angļu valodas tulkojusi R. Koka

«Daiļā Margareta»,  ir viens no  labākajiem šā žanra darbiem. Par romāna darbības fonu rakstnieks izvēlējies 15. gs. pēdējo ceturksni, kad Anglijā un Spānijā norisinājās sīva cīņa starp absolūto monarhiju un feodālo sadrum­stalotību.

Anglijā, ko bija galīgi novājinājusi divu feodāļu dzimtu — Lankasteras un Jorkas — ilgstoša un asiņaina cīņa, kura iegājusi vēsturē kā Sarkanās un Baltās Rozes karš, pie varas nāca jauna karaļu dinastija — Tjūdori. Jaunās dinastijas nodibinātājam Henrijam VII, kura valdīšanas sestajā gadā norisinās romāna darbība, izdevās nostiprināties uz troņa un sekmīgi cīnīties pret feodāļiem. Kaut gan romāna darbība norit galvenokārt Spānijā, Hegards veiksmīgi attēlojis arī vēsturisko situāciju tālaika Anglijā. Galvenais varonis — Pīters Broums — ir nabadzīgs tāpēc, ka viņa tēvs, būdams karaļa Ričarda III piekritējs, kritis kaujā pie Bosvortas, kurā uzvarēja Henrijs Tjūdors. Hegards ļoti īsi, bet precīzi rak­sturo Henriju VII — viņa nedrošo stāvokli tronī, cenšanos uzturēt draudzīgas attiecības ar Spāniju.

As the daughter of a billionaire and the owner of the city's top wine store, Jordan Rhodes is invited to the most exclusive parties in Chicago. But there's only one party the FBI wants to crash: the charity fundraiser of a famous restaurateur, who also happens to launder money for the mob. In exchange for her brother's release from prison, Jordan is going to be there—with a date supplied by the Bureau.

As the top undercover agent in Chicago, Nick McCall has one rule: never get personal. This "date" with Jordan Rhodes is merely an assignment—one they're both determined to pull off even if they can't be together for five minutes before the sarcasm and sparks begin to fly. But when Nick's investigation is compromised, he and Jordan have no choice but to pretend they're a couple, and what starts out as a simple assignment begins to feel a lot like something more.

Of all the hotel rooms rented by all the adulterous politicians in Chicago, female Assistant U.S. Attorney Cameron Lynde had to choose the one next to 1308, where some hot-and-heavy lovemaking ends with a death. And of all the FBI agents in Illinois, it had to be Special Agent Jack Pallas who gets assigned to this high-profile homicide. The same Jack Pallas who still blames Cameron for a botched crackdown three years ago—and for nearly ruining his career.

Work with Cameron Lynde? Are they kidding? Maybe, Jack thinks, this is some kind of welcome-back prank after his stint away from Chicago. But it's no joke; the pair is going to have to put their rocky past behind them and focus on the case at hand. That is, if they can cut back on the razor-sharp jibes—and smother the flame of their sizzling-hot sexual tension.

A former football star and one of Chicago’s top prosecutors, Assistant U.S. Attorney Cade Morgan will do anything to nail a corrupt state senator, which means he needs Brooke Parker’s help. As general counsel for a restaurant company, she can get a bug to the senator’s table at one of her five-star restaurants so the FBI can eavesdrop on him. All Cade has to do is convince Brooke to cooperate—and he’s not afraid to use a little charm, or the power of his office, to do just that.

A savvy businesswoman, Brooke knows she needs to play ball with the U.S. Attorney’s office—even if it means working with Cade. No doubt there’s a sizzling attraction beneath all their sarcastic quips, but Brooke is determined to keep things casual. Cade agrees—until a surprising turn of events throws his life into turmoil, and he realizes that he wants more than just a good time from the one woman with whom he could fall terrifyingly, irresistibly in love . . .

Though Rylann Pierce tried to fight the sparks she felt for billionaire heir Kyle Rhodes the night they met, their sizzling chemistry was undeniable. But after being stood up on their first date, Rylann never expected to see him again. So when she finds herself face-to-face with Kyle in a courthouse nine years later, she's stunned. More troubling to the beautiful assistant U.S. attorney is that she's still wildly attracted to him.

Just released from prison, Kyle Rhodes isn't thrilled to be the star witness in a high-profile criminal case—but when Rylann comes knocking at his door, he finds she may be the one lawyer he can't say no to. Still as gorgeous and sharp-tongued as ever, she lays down the law: she doesn't mix business with pleasure. But Kyle won't give up on something he wants—and what he wants is the one woman he's never forgotten.

«Cuando el papel me cortó el dedo, solo salió una gota de sangre del pequeño corte. Entonces, todo pasó muy rápido. "¡No!", rugió Edward… Aturdida y desorientada, miré la brillante sangre roja que salía de mi brazo y después a los ojos enfebrecidos de seis vampiros repentinamente hambrientos…»

Para Bella Swan, hay una cosa más importante que su propia vida: Edward Cullen. Pero enamorarse de un vampiro es más peligroso de lo que Bella nunca podría haber imaginado. Edward ya ha rescatado a Bella de las garras de un diabólico vampiro, pero ahora, a medida que su arriesgada relación amenaza todo lo que es cercano y querido para ellos, se dan cuenta de que sus problemas puede que sólo estén empezando…

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Fern Michaels-one of the most beloved authors of our time-comes a gripping new novel filled with heart and hope, as a young woman wrongly found guilty of murder receives the gift of a second chance…

On the eve of her retirement, Georgia attorney Mikala Aulani is as vivacious and vibrant as ever, eagerly anticipating a happy future with her partner, Ben. But if Kala has learned anything in thirty-five years of practicing law, it's that the truth can always surprise you. And when Adam Star turns up at her office, confessing to the long-ago murder of his wife, Kala must return to a notorious case that has never stopped haunting her.

Ten years have passed since young nurse Sophie Lee was accused of murdering her wealthy patient, Audrey Star. Kala defended Sophie and had no doubt of her innocence-or of Adam Star's guilt-but the prosecution convinced a jury otherwise. Sophie was convicted on a Tuesday-the day on which every significant event in her life, good or bad, seems to happen. Now, on the verge of his death, Adam exonerates Sophie and also leaves her a huge fortune in atonement.

Released from prison, Sophie retreats to Kala's house and tries to evade the media frenzy that surrounds her. Kala is determined to help her client make her way back into the world and adjust to her new wealth and freedom. Yet for both, there are still revelations in store-about the nature of redemption, the strange workings of fate, and the power of forgiveness. And most of all, about the secrets that hide in every heart-even those we think we know best.
