New and... Improved? / Andrew in Excess (Harlequin Duets, #28)
Jill Shalvis - 2000
A little mousy, maybe, but a sweet friend and a darn good chemist. So why did she have to go and wreck it all by having a makeover? Now she looked like some sexy siren out of a lingerie catalog, and when it came to chemistry...there was only one kind on Kent's mind!
ANDREW IN EXCESS
She's got the baby blues...
Teacher Kat Devereaux was free spirited, unorthodox...and had a little problem with excess. And right now, her biological clock was ticking excessively loudly. What she needed was a temporary husband--one she couldn't possibly fall for. Andrew Winthrop III was stuffy, conservative and needed a wife. A marriage of convenience would solve both their problems. Only, neither one anticipated enjoying their mock marriage so excessively....
The Teddy Bear Agreement
thepurplerose - 2015
“Wait, not yet, I’m awake.” Will’s breath tickled my ear as he brought me closer and even threw one of his legs over mine. He backed us both away from the edge of the bed and I was pretty sure he was hitting the wall with his back. “You’ll make it harder for me to sneak out without waking you up.” I whispered, my slight annoyance edging in my voice. The quick exhale of breath coming from his nose was a probable chuckle as he murmured back to me: “That’s the point.”

The Volunteers
Douglas Reeman - 1985

This is the dramatic story of a handful of such people - The Volunteers.
William Langland's Piers Plowman: The C Version
William Langland - 1979
Probably composed between 1372 and 1389, the poem survives in three distinct versions. It is known to modern readers largely through the middle of the three, the so-called B-text. Now, George Economou's verse translation of the poet's third version makes available for the first time in modern English the final revision of a work that many have regarded as the greatest Christian poem in our language.Langland's remarkable powers of invention and his passionate involvement with the spiritual, social, and political crises of his time lay claim to our attention, and demand serious comparison with Dante's Divine Comedy. Economou's translation preserves the intensity of the poet's verse and the narrative energy of his alliterative long line, the immediacy of the original's story of the quest for salvation, and the individuality of its language and wordplay.
