Wring every drop of pleasure out of every moment. Who is she? And how does she slide so easily under his well-guarded skin? It's almost too easy to draw Celino within the kill zone. Her eyes alone set his blood simmering, stirring ridiculous adolescent fantasies about breasts and honey. There's only one thing he can't seem to control-his reaction to the mysterious woman who tantalizes his senses. Celino Carvanna's razor-sharp business acumen-and skills with a blade-won him the freedom to do as he pleases. She's more than earned her right to retire, but her kinsmen have one last favor to ask. For years her lethal skills have been a valuable asset in advancing her family's interests. On Meli Galdes' home planet, the struggle for power is a bloody, full-contact sport-in business and on the battlefield.

Not only is it wonderfully queer, but the narration is packed full of emotion and there were many times I felt myself tearing up. Thanks Jonathan and Aaron!- and I can’t believe it has taken me this long to get around to it and finish it. So I received this book from the author at HusbandandHusband years ago. That was so much more than I expected from a paranormal gay romance- yep you heard me. The Ghost of Buxton Manor is a young adult, LGBT paranormal fiction centered around historical figures Rupert Buxton and Michael Davies-the inspiration behind the real Peter Pan. This peculiar, modern boy is the first person that Rupert has been able to reveal himself to, and just might be the key to help him discover his mysterious past. Hope is restored when a boy his own age moves into the manor-a boy he quickly becomes fascinated by. He spends his days reading, roaming, and trying desperately to recall his former life. Synopsis: “Michael, don’t forget our Neverland.”įor nearly a century, the ghost of 17 year-old Rupert Buxton has been trapped in his childhood home. When she enters training with the Special Operations Executives in Britain, her new comrades are instructed to call her HÉLÈNE. With a five million franc bounty on her head, Nancy is forced to escape France and leave Henri behind. Her success and her remarkable ability to evade capture earns her the nickname THE WHITE MOUSE from the Gestapo. Fiocca than the Germans invade France and she takes yet another name: a code name.Īs LUCIENNE CARLIER Nancy smuggles people and documents across the border. No sooner does Henri sweep Nancy off her feet and convince her to become Mrs. It is 1936 and Nancy Wake is an intrepid Australian expat living in Paris who has bluffed her way into a reporting job for Hearst newspaper when she meets the wealthy French industrialist Henri Fiocca. Told in interweaving timelines organized around the four code names Nancy used during the war, Code Name Hélène is a spellbinding and moving story of enduring love, remarkable sacrifice and unfaltering resolve that chronicles the true exploits of a woman who deserves to be a household name. So I suppose it makes sense that Braga was scared of how Barker’s deeply literary surrealism would work on Hulu. There’s something about Barker that makes him incredibly hard to translate to other mediums-films like “Rawhead Rex” and “Lord of Illusions,” both based on Barker stories from Books of Blood bear this out even further. If they were part of a larger series that returned to Barker stories, they might fit in better, but here they feel like they have almost no connection to the anthology collection of Books of Blood, bearing little resemblance to the dark, twisted visions of Barker’s writing. The other two are original, reportedly conceived by Braga and Barker. In one of this production's strangest decisions, only one of these three stories is actually based on a Barker composition, and even that one (the actual story called “The Book of Blood” that opens the anthology) has been liberally altered. Would I judge this differently if it were three episodes sent to press for a new Hulu series instead of a complete feature? Maybe, but I’d still be nervous about where it was going next. If creator Brannon Braga had been allowed to expand this into the series it should have been, it might have worked, but it feels like a half-hearted project in every way in this form. Originally conceived as an anthology series, "Books of Blood" has now been reduced to an anthology film, three stories with loose connections in terms of plot but all about people who learn that they shouldn’t mess with the other side.
