Prince of Foxes


H.L. Macfarlane - 2019
    If it happens that finding a kelpie takes so long that Murdoch has no choice but to return to London then that’s a happy coincidence.Sorcha barked in amusement. Of course it would be no coincidence. It didn’t matter that she understood why her parents wanted her to marry the man. It didn’t matter that he was handsome, and wealthy, and clearly genuinely interested in her. When she’d looked into Murdoch’s dark, fathomless eyes and felt nothing but startling, all-consuming fear Sorcha resolutely made up her mind.She jumped over the windowsill, deftly avoiding the rose bush beneath it. She would keep to the edges of the forest until the sun came up, then she would wander the shores of the loch. She could do this. Sorcha could find a kelpie and save Lachlan.And she would not get married, no matter the consequences. Her father would have to find another investor, and Murdoch Buchanan another bride. Sometimes a fox is not a fox, and a man is not what he seems. When Lachlan, the golden Prince of Faeries, is transformed into a fox and banished from the forest on the eve of his mother’s funeral, the last creature he expects to seek help from is a human. But Sorcha Darrow is not so easily enchanted by the wily faerie. Only after discovering her father means to marry her to a wealthy Londoner does she decide to help him, seeking the power of a being even Lachlan is wary of: a kelpie. In finding one Sorcha hopes that she may just avoid her own dire fate in the process.With Sorcha’s dreams being their only true form of communication, Lachlan has to race against time to break his curse and take his place as king before he’s doomed to live as a fox forever.  But someone else is after the throne, and may just use Sorcha’s growing connection to Lachlan to reach it. The first book in the Bright Spear trilogy,  Prince of Foxes is loosely based on the Celtic fairy tale of Gold-tree and Silver-tree, and features a cameo from Julian and Evie from The Tower Without a Door (Chronicles of Curses book 3). NOTE: Prince of Foxes is written in UK (British) English, not American English.

Tiny Stations: An Uncommon Odyssey Around Britain's Railway Request Stops


Dixe Wills - 2014
    Perhaps the oddest quirk of Britain's railway network is also one of its least well known: around 150 of the nation's stations are request stops. Take an unassuming station like Shippea Hill in Cambridgeshire - the scene of a fatal accident involving thousands of carrots. Or Talsarnau in Wales, which experienced a tsunami. Tiny Stations is the story of the author's journey from the far west of Cornwall to the far north of Scotland, visiting around 40 of the most interesting of these little used and ill-regarded stations. Often a pen-stroke away from closure - kept alive by political expediency, labyrinthine bureaucracy or sheer whimsy - these half-abandoned stops afford a fascinating glimpse of a Britain that has all but disappeared from view. There are stations built to serve once thriving industries - copper mines, smelting works, cotton mills, and china clay quarries where the first trains were pulled by horses; stations erected for the sole convenience of stately home and castle owners through whose land the new iron road cut an unwelcome swathe; stations created for Victorian day-tripping attractions; a station built for a cavalry barracks whose last horse has long since bolted; and many more. Dixe Wills will leave you in no doubt that there's more to tiny stations than you might think.

The Complete Hyde Series


Lauren Stewart - 2013
    This box set is intended for adults only. It includes lots of cursing, descriptive sex, biting sarcasm, and dark themes. HYDE was inspired by Stevenson's novella but is not a retelling, in part because he and this author have very different definitions of 'bad boy'. HYDE, an Urban Fantasy: Two people bonded by a hereditary curse and a manipulative enemy they know nothing about. When the truth leaves them nothing to hold onto, they are forced into a partnership neither expected...or wanted.Because in life, who you trust is as important as who you are. And when you can't even trust yourself, sometimes the only person you can rely on is the last person on earth you should be falling for. JEKYLL, an Urban Fantasy: After waking up in her enemy's spare bedroom, Eden will do whatever is necessary to get back to Mitch. Because his life depends on it.Mitch has lost something he never thought he'd find to begin with. And "It's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" is a lie. A lie people tell themselves to make the pain go away. But the pain doesn't go away, not in someone like Mitch. It festers. It grows. Until it can't be held back, even by the bars of a cage. STRANGE CASE, an Urban Fantasy: In this final chapter of Mitch and Eden's story, everyone will be tested. Morality and honor weighed against getting the job done. But desperation can make people do things they never thought they'd be capable of.And returning from hell is a pretty damn big wake-up call, especially once Mitch realizes that the woman he loves has been in a different kind of hell...and she can't get out of it.
