Most of the sites he dug were ahead of industrial development or new housing estates, gravel quarries, roads, etc. The people who did the work were down-to-earth. Some were students, others were professional diggers – but they all knew what they wanted from life and were prepared to work long hours, for very low pay. In the seventies to nineties, Alan and his colleagues lived in abandoned houses or camped out on the edges of industrial estates. They were always covered in mud, were deeply suntanned and drunk (or stoned) on their days off. They were feared by respectable citizens. They were known as Circuit Diggers because they worked the 'circuit', moving from one excavation to another, as new sites were opened, right across Britain.Like others on the circuit, Alan Cadbury is obsessive: he won’t let problems lie, even when he’s slumped drunk in a lonely bedsit, somewhere in the Fens. But there’s another side to him, too: he enjoyes solving mysteries. In the late ‘90s he helped to give a forensic archaeology course and there met Richard Lane, now a senior detective in the Leicestershire force. DCI Lane helps him tackle new cases. But this is his first big one: it involves an 'honour killing', which happened eight years ago in Leicester. Most of the action takes place in the Fens, where Alan has lived all his life. It’s a dark tale of past wrong-doing and modern criminality – on a very large scale. And it’s not without violence and rapid action. Alan’s life may be harsh and at times unpleasant, but it’s not likely to be very long, either.

    BIG everywhere and in every way. A young and inexperienced college student, assigned to interview him for the university newspaper. Sparks fly when all-star Stone Jacobs meets his sweet Olivia. Stone… “I know I should leave her alone. It’s best to just walk away. I have a hundred and sixty-eight games to play all over the country. I’m under contract. I can’t get distracted by some little college girl. But Olivia isn’t just any girl. She’s the prettiest, sweetest, most innocent and submissive girl I’ve ever met. Something about her awakens all of my daddy instincts. I can’t resist. She shreds all my defenses. I have to be careful, though. She needs to focus on school. She’s worked hard to get where she’s at. She doesn’t need some athlete to derail her plans. Besides, I’m not sure she can handle me. She’s never been with a man. If I’m her first…well, poor girl. I can’t just decimate her and then leave her. I have to stay strong. I must resist.” Olivia… “Stone is the most gorgeous man I’ve ever seen. The way he looks in that baseball uniform. The way those muscles ripple just beneath the fabric. Yes, please. Yummy. Surely he doesn’t want me, though. I’m the poor girl from the wrong-side-of-the-tracks. A Plain Jane that all the guys overlook. But there seems to be something to this. He’s protective toward me. Almost paternal. If I didn’t know any better, I’d say loving! One thing I know—Stone is the man of my dreams. I want him to be my first. Even if he has to leave me afterward and we go on with our separate lives, I need Stone Jacobs to take me, to break me in. I need to experience him.” Spring Training is a fast moving, Insta-love romance.

It features consenting adults and contains DDlg themes and light spanking (but is NOT an Age Play, ABDL tale). With plenty of steamy scenes, this one is strictly for ADULTS ONLY.

    This is a lively overview of the major ideas and concepts in archaeological theory.

    Uncovered ancient maps and writings show the real ruins of four of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World that were thought to have vanished from the earth. The secrets hidden within those Wonders explode the very foundations of what we thought we knew about the world and where we had come from. Listed by the Dallas Community Colleges as a "must read," WHEN ROCKS CRY OUT ties together riddles from the Old Testament with ruins of abandoned cities that are thousands of years old...and thousands of miles away from where we thought those cities would be. Often reading like a page-turning novel, this could be one of the most important books written in the last 500 years. From the discovery of Egypt's lost ancient capital, Memphis, to a stunning hidden burial city built by the Pharaohs, to the secret ruins of King David's famed city, this book moves past recent promises about 'codes' and brings you to the real-life secret that was the explosive reason for the creation of the codes. Da Vinci's Code? Solomon's Key? Those clever puzzles can't reach the significance of the mysteries unraveled in this book. And the things in this book are real! WHEN ROCKS CRY OUT...it is a book for those who have reached a point in their life when they just want to know the truth. Finally, we can trace where our 'blood' has been and what our 'blood' has done.

With nothing more on her agenda than having a good time, she envisioned sleeping til noon on downy featherbeds every day, and hitting hottest clubs by night. But a chance encounter with the world’s most cocky Crown Prince has derailed those plans, leaving her not only breathless, but wanting far more. Eric Jean-Francois Devillers III has more important things to think about than a flighty American student intent on seeing the sights, but there’s something about Kat that he can’t get out of his head.

Katherine has generations of royals to convince that she’s suitable for the role…and even has to convince herself. *BONUS BOOK*: One Night with a Bad Boy: (A Redemption Story), a full-length novel from Ella Slade, is included at the end of this book, completely FREE!
