A nightmare he cannot escape… Before earning his position as a commander in the new empress's forces, Jun spent most of his life as a roaming mercenary, on the run from a past that holds his heart hostage. So when rumors of lust-eating demons emerge from the land of his youth, he embarks on a mission for redemption, only to find himself face to face with a woman he thought long dead—a woman who hasn't aged in twenty years. A curse she can't break… Magic has only ever betrayed Mikari, turning her own heart against her. Unable to trust herself or the true motives of the only man she's ever loved, Mikari knows the best way to protect them both is to push him away, lest he discover how broken she is beneath her jaded façade. An evil only they can face… But when Mikari and Jun are attacked and forced to spend the winter in the highlands of Gozu, they discover something far more sinister than demons may be behind the evil that surrounds them. And Mikari's curse could be the key to vanquishing it… ♥♥♥ At the Maze's Center is a full-length "dark lite" fantasy romance featuring demons, magic battles, and a steamy second-chance romance between two long-lost lovers who tragically reunite as enemies. If you like angsty slow burns, forced proximity, loads of spice, and a grumpy/sunshine vibe, you'll love At the Maze's Center!

The Assembly of Ladies is a fifteenth-century secular love poem in Middle English that adheres closely to conventional poetic structures, but throws these conventions into relief as it presents the narrative from a womanâ (TM)s point of view, a rare occurrence for poetry of this period. Who wrote it, for whom and why, are questions about which we can speculate, but never ultimately answerâ "the poem itself gives us few clues. Yet the poem has had a remarkable shelf-life; in subsequent centuries the poem has continued to be noticed, read, and debated, as a small but significant artefact from fifteenth-century England. This book examines how fifteenth-century English social conventions impact upon gender relations in The Assembly of Ladies. By drawing on contemporary (and clearly influential) texts from the fifteenth century as a comparison, Marshall shows how The Assembly of Ladies has integrated social conventions into its themes and structure, elevating for the reader the ways that social and literary conventions impact on women in the production and consumption of literature.

This book is a national portrait of immigrant women who live in the United States today, featuring the voices of these women as they describe their contributions to work, culture, and activism. Highlighting the gendered quality of the immigration process, it interrogates how human agency and societal structures interact within the intersecting social locations of gender and migration. The popular debate around contemporary U.S. immigration tends to conjure images of men waiting on the side of the road for construction jobs, working in kitchens or delis, driving taxis, and sending money to their wives and families in their home countries, while women are often left out of these pictures. Through an examination of U.S. Census data and interviews with women across nationalities, we hear the poignant, humorous, hopeful, and defiant words of these women as they describe the often confusing terrain where they are starting new lives, creating architecture firms, building urban high-rises, caring for children, cleaning offices, producing creative works, and organizing for social change. The authors recommend changes for public policy to address the constraints these women face, insisting that new policy must be attentive to the diverse profile of today's immigrating woman: she is both potentially vulnerable to exploitative conditions and forging new avenues of societal leadership.

The Signifying Self: Cervantine Drama as Counter-Perspective Aesthetic offers a comprehensive analysis of all eight of Cervantes's Ocho comedias (published 1615), moving beyond conventional anti-Lope approaches to Cervantine dramatic practise in order to identify what, indeed, his theatre promotes. Considered on its own aesthetic terms, but also taking into account ontological and socio-cultural concerns, this study compels a re-assessment of Cervantes's drama and conflates any monolithic interpretations which do not allow for the textual interplay of contradictory and conflicting discourses which inform it. Cervantes's complex and polyvalent representation of freedom underpins such an approach; a concept which is considered to be a leitmotif of Cervantes's work but which has received scant attention with regards to his theatre. Investigation of this topic reveals not only Cervantes's rejection of established theatrical convention, but his preoccupation with the difficult relationship between the individual and the early modern Spanish world. Cervantes's comedias emerge as a counter-perspective to dominant contemporary Spanish ideologies and more orthodox artistic imaginings. Ultimately, The Signifying Self seeks to recuperate the Ocho comedias as a significant part of the Cervantine, and Golden-Age, canon and will be of interest and benefit to those scholars who work on Cervantes and indeed on early modern Spanish theatre in general.

This book provides a comprehensive compilation and discussion of research findings on female aggression from antropology, social psychology, animal research, case studies and representation in literature. This multidisciplinary approach addresses such questions as are females more aggressive than males?, is female aggressive behaviour perhaps qualitatively, not quantitatively, different than male aggressive behaviour'. The book also examines patterns of aggression, the role of hormones in aggression, cultural differences, and how human aggression differs from aggression within animal species.

The book ‘The Chosen Ones’ represents a staunch and unwavering commitment to face life, overcome difficulties, and to know how to enjoy it at all times along the path of the evolution of consciousness. In this sense, the author Margarita Arnal Moscardó reveals to us, through her stories, a path to live life.Reading this book is giving yourself the opportunity to delve into the ancestral feminine force. The author’s great understanding of feelings and her connection with a wisdom that connects with our soul, offers answers on the initiation of the path to overcoming difficulties, while acknowledging the happy moments that life offers.The Chosen Ones an exciting novel that captivates the reader from the first moment, is based on the spiritual adventures of three women throughout their lives. The Chosen Ones is the telling of three stories, perhaps not by chance, as the number three is considered the "perfect number" according to spiritual traditions. In the three stories, we find a wide spectrum of situations that bathe the individual in joy, love, and happiness or at the same time, flood with deep sadness, lost love, and suffering.Perhaps a more subliminal message in the book, but latent in each of the three stories, is the sublime claim of the inalienable right for women to enjoy the path of life, whatever future or destiny holds for each of them, for ALL the women (given that there are three stories). The ties, obstacles, and problems that women face can in no way prevent them from achieving their happiness. Pain and suffering do not justify the martyrdom of waiting for an earthly existence without both.The depth of the book is combined with sweetness, as well as the clarity and courage with which pain is described, the inevitable goodbye to loved ones and the "maybe we will meet again sometime, somewhere". They are intermingled with a touch between realism and idealism and a sense of humor, while offering an apprenticeship in the initiation rituals offered by some of the cultures of the earth.From all this it can be deduced that the author Margarita Arnal Moscardó shows authentic knowledge of the different visions of approach to the spiritual, from the different cultural-spiritual experiences that coexist on earth.
