Miałam go już nigdy więcej nie spotkać. Poznaliśmy się w nocnym klubie. Zaczął mnie podrywać przy barze, a ja wprost nie mogłam oderwać od niego wzroku. Obłędnie przystojny, irytująco arogancki, ale pociągający jak diabli. Przy nim udało mi się nawet zapomnieć, że zaledwie parę godzin wcześniej rozstałam się z chłopakiem, i pozwoliłam sobie na chwilowe szaleństwo. Drinki z pewnością mi to ułatwiły… Na jedną upojną noc. Bez imion. Bez nazwisk. Bez zobowiązań. Bez dalszego ciągu. Najlepszy seks w moim życiu – ale to wszystko. Takie przygodne znajomości nie są w moim stylu. Następnego ranka przychodzę do pracy na stresującą rozmowę z naszym nowym klientem. I kogo widzą moje podkrążone, niewyspane oczy? Jego. A raczej trzech facetów, którzy wyglądają jak on. Trojaczki. W ramionach którego z nich wczoraj krzyczałam z rozkoszy? I tak oto wylądowałam w tym rajskim miejscu, na Wyspach Dziewiczych, jako konsultantka firmy S.I.N., u boku jednego z braci, Callahana Sharpe'a. Moim zadaniem jest pomóc mu spełnić obietnicę, którą dał swojemu umierającemu ojcu – uratować przynoszący straty kurort i zająć się jego całkowitą metamorfozą. To trudny projekt, ale jeszcze trudniejsze jest trzymanie się zasady: nie sypiaj ze swoim szefem, bo masz zbyt wiele do stracenia… [Opis z okładki].

A horror-filled tale of crumbling catacombs and the darkest family secrets, set in the picturesque hills of Sicily, from the acclaimed author of Road of Bones and All Hallows. Across Italy there are many half-empty towns, nearly abandoned by those who migrate to the coast or to cities. The beautiful, crumbling hilltop town of Becchina is among them, but its mayor has taken drastic measures to rebuild―selling abandoned homes to anyone in the world for a single Euro, as long as the buyer promises to live there for at least five years. It's a no-brainer for American couple Tommy and Kate Puglisi. Both work remotely, and Becchina is the home of Tommy's grandparents, his closest living relatives. It feels like a romantic adventure, an opportunity the young couple would be crazy not to seize. But from the moment they move in, they both feel a shadow has fallen on them. Tommy's grandmother is furious, even a little frightened, when she realizes which house they've bought. There are rooms in an annex at the back of the house that they didn't know were there. The place makes strange noises at night, locked doors are suddenly open, and when they go to a family gathering, they're certain people are whispering about them, and about their house, which one neighbor refers to as The House of Last Resort. Soon, they learn that the home was owned for generations by the Church, but the real secret, and the true dread, is unlocked when they finally learn what the priests were doing in this house for all those long years…and how many people died in the strange chapel inside. While down in the catacombs beneath Becchina…something stirs.

This carefully crafted ebook: "RANDOLPH MASON, THE DEVIL'S ADVOCATE: The Strange Schemes of Randolph Mason & The Man of Last Resort" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Randolph Mason is a brusque New York lawyer who is highly skilled at turning legal loopholes and technicalities to his clients' advantage. He is depicted as an utterly amoral character who advises criminals how to commit wrongdoings without breaking the letter of the law. The best-known of these stories is "The Corpus Delicti", in which Mason's client murders a blackmailing lover and dissolves her dismembered corpse in acid. Despite circumstantial evidence, Mason secures his client's acquittal on the grounds that nobody has been found and there are no eyewitnesses to the woman's death, as required by New York law at the time. Post deflected criticism of such sensational stories by affirming that he was publicly exposing weaknesses in the law that needed to be rectified. Melville Davisson Post (1869-1930) was an American author, born in West Virginia.
