Gabriel Anderson has accepted a unique position in the shifter world. He's about to become a Hunter, one of the few trained and sanctioned to hunt down the rare rogue shifter dangerous to humans and shifters alike. There's one catch: until his training is complete, he must hold off on marking his mate. No problem...after all, she probably couldn't handle the sexual demands he dreams of making on her.

Her mate's apparent desertion devastates Sarah. And his friendship with another woman threatens the bond they should be sharing and building. Maybe flirting with another man will make him sit up and take notice--and finally win Gabe's heart. It works. Almost too well.

One touch of another man's hand on Sarah's tempting body brings every ounce of Gabe's possessiveness roaring to the surface. He wastes no time making his erotic dreams of dominating her a reality--whether she's ready for it or not.

If she's not, the only place he'll ever have her is in his dreams...

A bond forged in blood. Fealty given to the one he desires above all others. Graced with the ability to shift into any form, Diskant Black is the absolute authority when it comes to New York shifters, and as the Omega of the city, his word is law. Protecting the shifter races is more than a job, it's a predisposition ingrained since birth-nothing is more important. Until a chance encounter with a tiny female sets fire to his blood, brings him to his knees and turns his world upside down. Ava Brisbane is more than he bargained for in a mate-beautiful, fragile...human. If he wants to keep her by his side, he'll have to sacrifice a portion of his soul to establish a bond that can never be broken. Unfortunately, the timing couldn't be worse. Shepherds-hunters of all the shifter races-have arrived in New York. To protect the woman he can't live without, Diskant will have to stand against those who have come to start a war.

От переводчика:

Во-первых, я не переводчик, я любитель. Так что просьба в пианиста не стрелять, играет, как может. Сразу предупреждаю, что вторая часть и в оригинале весьма отличается от первой. Она не такая динамичная (прямо скажем, затянутая и нудная), и если в первой полно действия, то тут местами сплошные возвышенные чувства и страдания. Но вас же это не отпугнет, правда? Вам же все равно интересно, чем кончилось?

Во-вторых, я не тот человек, который переводил первую часть. И это приводит нас к маааленькой такой проблеме – я не знаю, чем руководствовался автор, переводя имя одной из главных героинь как Холли. В оригинале героиню зовут Haley Corregan, и в той же первой части она объясняет, что ее так назвал отец-астроном в честь кометы. В русской традиции исторически утвердилось написание Галлей, хотя сам Галлей произносил свою фамилию примерно как Холи, а в наши дни преобладает произношение, близкое к Хэли или (в США) Хейли.» В общем, убейте меня, но для меня она – Хейли.

В-третьих, так и просится перевести название повести, как «Конец – делу венец», но этот копирайт уже давно захвачен Шекспиром, так что извернемся так: Outcome (ИСХОД).

"The boys are back in town "

Ten years ago, Kaelin Daume spent a steamy summer home from college secretly hanging out with town bad boy Tyler Wirth and his best friend Nick Kernsted. The connection was warm, complicated, and came to a crashing end when she walked in on her two forbidden friends with another woman. The shocking scene of sex and bondage has haunted her boring, oh-so-vanilla life ever since.

The fallout from that night tore Tyler s life apart. He left Mapleglen, disowned and disgraced, to build a successful advertising career and a unique relationship with Nick. Nothing could bring him back except his sister s wedding, and he plans to hightail it back to Chicago as soon as it s over. At least one good thing hasn t changed: Kaelin is as sweet as ever. Except she doesn t seem too thrilled to hear it.

As tensions run high, Kaelin can t resist the temptation to commit one crazy act of rebellion. Once the web of secrets, sins and lies starts to unravel, though, their lives will never be the same

The last thing Justin Connor expected to find washed up on the wild shores of his island paradise was a young woman asleep on the sand, curled like a child beneath the moonlight. His peace is shattered by the mischievous creature with the wicked dimple and mysterious past.Orphaned, cheated of her inheritance, Emily Claire Scarborough has sailed halfway around the world to find the man who promised her father he would take care of her, then abandoned her to an English boarding school.

Enfuie du couvent où sa mère veut lui faire prendre le voile afin de s’assurer la fortune paternelle, Charlotte de Fontenac se réfugie chez sa tante de Brécourt, sœur de son père défunt. Dans la nuit, elle se perd et surprend un rituel terrifiant dans une chapelle abandonnée. Un inconnu l’arrache à sa dangereuse contemplation...

C’est le temps où le vent pestilentiel de l’affaire des Poisons souffle sur Paris et la cour de Louis XIV. Mme de Brécourt met Charlotte à l’abri au Palais-Royal chez la jeune duchesse d’Orléans, Madame, la pittoresque princesse Palatine.

Un chemin singulier, celui des palais royaux, s’ouvre devant Charlotte, plus dangereux qu’on ne pourrait croire. Une fantaisie de la nature l’a fait ressembler à un ancien amour de Louis XIV, ce qui lui vaut la haine feutrée de Mme de Maintenon en passe de supplanter Mme de Montespan. Au moment de la plus grande menace, c’est de la reine Marie-Thérèse que viendra le secours. Pour peu de temps car celle-ci meurt en quatre jours...

Des morts suspectes, des messes noires, un amour qui n’ose pas dire son nom et des protections qui tombent l’une après l’autre. Que va devenir Charlotte ?

For eight-year-old Rufus, life has become complicated. His mother and father, Josie and Tom, have divorced amicably enough, and are set to pursue their separate paths. But other people have had to become involved - like Matthew, who has just married Josie, and Elizabeth, Tom's new friend. And even worse, there are the other children - Matthew's three resentful teenagers, who have been conditioned by their own mother Nadine to hate Josie. Rufus is supposed to regard them as family now, although he doesn't see why he should. Most of the time Matthew's children live with Nadine, in a slum-like cottage in the depths of the country. Nadine is determined that they should hate their new life as much as she does. They come to their father for weekends, and make it clear how much they loathe their new stepmother. Rufus secretly prefers to be with his father in his quiet house in Bath, and realises that he does not necessarily hate the idea of a stepmother - not if she was like Elizabeth, sane and friendly and welcoming. But where other people's children are concerned, neat solutions seldom occur.

Самое страшное для любящего мужчины — это потерять любимую женщину.

Элфи Бадд ощутил это на собственной шкуре.

«Я считаю, — размышляет он о самом себе, — что любой мужчина может полностью израсходовать в себе запасы любви. И при этом растратить их на одну-единственную женщину. Надо только очень сильно любить ее, тогда для другой женщины уже больше ничего не останется».

Пустоту, возникающую после потери, похоже, нельзя заполнить.

«Потому что невозможно найти замену той, которую называешь любовью всей своей жизни».

Но жизнь не стоит на месте, и, пока человек живой, всегда остается шанс найти женщину, которая восполнит потерю.

Она. Девчонка, каких миллионы. Не талантливая, не высокая, не очень красивая, не умная…одно сплошное НЕ…. По крайней мере, она так считала…

Он. Парень, каких мало. Талантлив, амбициозен, высок, красив, умён, в нем всё по максимуму клёво… он совершенство. Так считали все, кроме неё…

Они. Такие разные и такие одинаковые. Ужасно вредные и гордые. В них обоих есть ОСОБЕННОСТЬ. Только вот она не знает, что в ней кроется…. А он знает, кем является. Она для него загадка, которую он не хочет разгадывать, или хочет?…

Но кто же он? И кто она??? А главное, что их может связывать?

Все персонажи и события вымышлены.

Любое совпадение случайно.

У меня есть все, о чем мечтает, каждая девушка. Десять лет назад, я не имела ничего - лишь дружбу и любовь всего лишь одного человечка. Нам было по девять, но это не так важно.  Он был моим щитом, от насмешек в приюте, был моим теплом, моим защитником, моим домом.  Эштон был моим лучшим другом. До тех пор, пока однажды все не изменилось, и на долгие годы, судьба разлучила нас, а в его сердце поселилась ненависть ко мне.  Я хочу увидеть в его глазах мальчика из прошлого, но теперь я вижу там лишь... чудовище.  Мы не должны были снова встретиться. Но так случилось, и с этого и началась моя история...
