    With the simple process outlined here, you need only choose one tarot card and then consult one (or several) of the 32 categories listed under each card—including Romance, Travel, Career, Finances, Friends, and Special Guidance—to discover the card's specific message for you. For example, if you want to know about your romantic future and the Queen of Cups turns up, you may find that the standard description given is "an honest, devoted woman; loving intelligence and happiness." How should you interpret this? But with Tarot Made Easy, the Queen of Cups Romance category tells you that "someone will enter your life in whom you will be very interested...and you will meet this person very close to your home, if not outside your front door." This easy but accurate system banishes the vague interpretations found in most books and gives you the immediate, specific insights you need.

    After she is informed that she is now their legal ward, she soon finds herself being prepared for a thorough, intimate medical examination. Her refusal to disrobe for the exam earns her the first spanking of her life, but once she is stripped bare and fully on display she cannot hide her helpless arousal. Doctors Benedict Crane and Thomas Allard are Victorian London’s foremost experts on curing sexual frigidity in women, and their intensely humiliating but highly effective techniques have helped them build a thriving practice. But as they embark on a new study exploring potential treatments for wanton female behavior, Benedict and Thomas are in need of a suitable subject for their research, and Lucy seems to fit the bill perfectly. To their surprise, however, it quickly becomes apparent that Lucy has been misdiagnosed. While her body responds beautifully to both firm discipline and a man’s pleasurable touch, she is no nymphomaniac. Upon learning more about her past experiences, they decide that the best course of action is to regress Lucy to a childlike state, and before long she is delighting in the attention of her new guardians. But as she flourishes under their care, Benedict and Thomas must confront their growing attraction to their ward. When it becomes obvious that her need for them is just as intense as theirs for her, will the doctors be prepared to claim Lucy fully and give her exactly the medicine she requires? Publisher’s Note: Lucy and the Doctors is an erotic romance novel that contains spankings, sexual scenes including threesomes, age play, medical play, anal play, and more.

    In the years that followed, under Emperor Hirohito, conformity was the norm and the Japanese psyche became one of selfless devotion to country and emperor; soon Japanese soldiers were to engage in mass murder, rape, and even cannibalization of their enemies.

On the basis of never-before-published interviews with both the victimizers and the victimized, and drawing on never-before-revealed or long-ignored archival records, Rees discloses the full horror of the war in the Pacific, probing the supposed Japanese belief in their own racial superiority, analyzing a military that believed suicide to be more honorable than surrender, and providing what the Guardian calls "a powerful, harrowing account of appalling inhumanity...impeccably researched."
