A Warm Southern Wind


Book Description

Anna Beauchamp is a Southern aristocrat when the Civil War erupts and takes away all the luxury and dignity of her former life. She and her mother, Sara, are near destitute when a Union calvary unit rides into Natchez, Mississippi, and takes over her home. Anna is unprepared for the handsome young Captain Jess Quaid who has been wounded and needs her care to recover. She struggles against the attraction she feels for this man, knowing a relationship with him is close to treason. At every opportunity, the captain seeks her attention under the guise of friendship. However, the captain wants more than friendship, but with none of the commitment that comes with loving a girl such as Anna. Through a series of events, the captain’s love turns to hate and Anna’s into desperation. Can these two star-crossed lovers find the happiness they seek in a world that has been turned upside down by a turbulent war that pits brother against brother?




Ancient Dreams


Book Description

“My tale starts with a ‘once upon a time’ — A long time ago, beings lived who could control the elements, immortality, and time. We called them gods and gave them our worship. They played with us like toys, took our lives and sabotaged our love. Now, the gods are myths. Stories in books—not to be confused with our modern world. I believed this until I found myself tumbling into a dream. This dream takes me to another life. To a forgotten time in a bloody age. I dream of Hades’s son and a lustful goddess. I dream of limitless power and revolving time. I dream a death and love that was mine... My name is Cara Wynter— and this is my story.” Cara Wynter is a literature student living with her twin sister, Lily, in Fairhaven Washington. A daughter of witches, touch brings Cara only pain, and dark visions of pasts and futures she can rarely change. Already fighting to exist in her strange reality, she begins to crumble when the reoccurring dreams of her own death begin. In a desperate attempt to unlock the secrets in the violent images, she finds herself lost in a contest between love—and the will of the ancient gods. With only forgotten memories and the pages of a book to guide her, she struggles to understand her past and break a deadly curse. Cara must face her worst fears—to save the soul of a god she has treasured for centuries, and a love she cannot live without.

Book Description




The Southern Mystique


Book Description

Amb la intenció de reconsiderar la construcció meridional del gènere que es mostra en la ficció i en les pel?lícules del segle XX naix aquest volum. Tres aspectes conceptuals guien la investigació. En primer lloc, les dones del sud poden treballar des de i en contra dels discursos de gènere de la seua societat a través de les pràctiques culinàries. En segon lloc, a través de l'amistat femenina, les dones poden transgredir el seu lloc prescrit pel patriarcat. En tercer lloc, per a infondre la construcció de gènere les dones han de desafiar la protecció patriarcal i desobeir les regles de confinament de la feminitat en l'espai domèstic. Així, aquest volum qüestiona els efectes materials dels mites meridionals sobre les construccions i les negociacions de la condició de dona meridional contra les normes blanques, masculines i heterosexistes de la cultura del sud.
