Book excerpt: The Beguine movement arose in Europe during the thirteenth century and consisted of women living together in chastity and poverty, doing works of Christian charity. Although many of their number were wealthy, this urban phenomenon had no founder, no single rule, and no agreed way of life. The Beguine movement was part of a yearning to democratize religion, and it produced four great writers.Saskia Murk-Jansen, a specialist in medieval women's mysticism, looks at the lives and works of Beatrijs of Nazareth, Mechtild of Magdeburg, Hadewijch, and Marguerite Porete. These mystics used images, metaphor, and paradox to express the numinous aspect of God. They pioneered vernacular literature and forged theological visions out of their own experience. Their writings provide an invaluable supplement to the work of their male contemporaries.Saskia Murk-Jansen probes the key images in Beguine spirituality including the soul as the bride of God, suffering as an integral part of a relationship with the Holy One, and the desert as a place to focus on the transcendent. In this excellent, balanced treatment, Murk-Jansen clearly outlines the development of the movement, pointing to its influence as well as its repression by church authorities.

Book excerpt: Ex-lovers unexpectedly reunite and renew mutual passions and desires in this sexy, steamy romance. “I am a close acquaintance of Crown Prince Razul’s!” Rash words indeed. Bethany was desperate to stop her deportation for Datar, and only Razul could help her. But she’d tried so hard to forget him—they’d been involved two years before, and back then Bethany hadn’t been able to handle such a proud, passionate man. Bethany got to stay in Datar. However, by renewing her “close” acquaintance with Razul she paid his price—he demanded she become his wife.

Including the incredibly handsome crown prince himself. There’s no denying that Murat is a man of mystery, power and many talents. But for a husband, Daphne Snowden wants more. Sure, “future queen” sounds lovely, but she wants someone who sees her as more than a woman to bear the next heir to the throne—someone who loves her. Still, there’s not only unfinished business between them, but burning desire. And though time has changed Murat, it hasn’t erased her interest in the only man she’s ever loved.
