Download or read book The Six Wives of Henry VIII written by David Loades and published by Amberley Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The marital ups and downs of England's most infamous king. The story of Henry VIII and his six wives has passed from history into legend - taught in the cradle as a cautionary tale and remembered in adulthood as an object lesson in the dangers of marrying into royalty. The true story behind the legend, however, remains obscure to most people, whose knowledge of the affair begins and ends with the aide memoire 'Divorced, executed, died, divorce, executed, survived'. David Loades masterly book recounts the whole sorry tale in detail from Henry's first marriage, to his brother's widow, to more or less contented old age in the care of the motherly Catherine Parr.

Upon the death of her husband, self-involved social climber Cora Pringle assumes her recent dalliance with a wealthy gentleman will be her second chance at a happily ever after. That is until her paramour turns out to be a penniless imposter. Despite his betrayal, Cora can’t quite let go of the tug the handsome playwright has on her heart. Desperate for an income, Cora becomes a séance-performing spiritualist and gets a taste for celebrity—and it’s so delicious. So what if she can’t actually communicate with the dead? Her eager patrons don’t need to know that. Amelia Baxter, an ambitious journalist and suffragist, is discouraged when her editor refuses to let her cover the horrific Jack the Ripper murders. Instead, Amelia pours her frustrations into bringing Cora’s deceptive and manipulative act to an end, even if it means risking her family’s reputation.

When two land girls unexpectedly arrive on his farm, he quickly learns he can’t simply make them go away. He finds amusement in tormenting Elsie whose privileged life certainly didn’t prepare her for farm life. However, nothing could have prepared Ben for the feelings that suddenly emerge whenever the haughty little princess is near. Why can’t he keep his eyes off her? And why can’t she stop thinking about him? Opposites attract—but is it true love? Between the Germans bombing nearby Bath and a deadly disease rampaging through local farms, Ben and Elsie’s trust in each other is put to the ultimate test.

In the midst of London's nightly bombings, Maisie finds herself irresistibly drawn to the shop’s co-owner, Cal Woodbury, captivated by his quick wit and bashful smile—and his mysterious secret. But Cal made a promise to his best friend and business partner, Roy—a promise that he would never pursue a romantic relationship with Maisie, Roy's sweet and beautiful sister. As the German bombs rain down upon London, and as Cal's bond with Maisie deepens, he discovers that some promises are impossible to keep. When Roy deserts the Navy and unexpectedly appears at Cal's doorstep, Cal is forced to choose between his loyal friend and the woman he's falling for. While London goes to war around them, Maisie and Cal face their own battle—finding their courage and recognizing their worth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molly Miranda makes very good money doing very bad things. (I only steal stuff from rich people. Mostly. Calm down.) Jewels, art, historical artifacts—nothing is safe when this professional thief is on the job. (That makes it sound so sinister.) Lying to everyone you love is second nature when you work in that particular industry. The truth, however, becomes a little harder to hide when she falls into bed with her roommate/crush. Avoiding dealing with the unpleasantness of feelings, Molly takes an assignment in Scotland and is paired up with an untrustworthy wildcard. It doesn’t help that her new partner-in-crime is super annoying. And devastatingly handsome… (Are you suggesting there’s something between me and him? hahahahaha No. Just no.) When a mission doesn’t go according to plan, she wonders if it’s time to hang up her burglar mask for good and try having a normal life with a normal job. And a lot less trespassing. (Snore. Borrrring.) Join Molly on her hilarious adventures as she dodges bullets, wears disguises, and steals her way into trouble. Perfect for fans of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series or comedies by Meg Cabot. Shortlisted for the 2016 Prince Edward Island Book Award.

Praise for Molly Miranda “How much fun is this? I’m loving the debut from Hamilton—now I need more about her sassy, sometimes awkward and always brave heroine, Molly Miranda. Stealing other people’s stuff has never been so charming. Bravo!” - Patti Larsen, award-winning author of the Hayle Coven series "It's tense and smart-alecky. It's likeable without being sweet. It's sexy and tough, and as apt to kick you in the pants as to kiss you on the cheek." - Award-winning author Leo McKay Jr. "Molly Miranda is a fun read with some good messages of self awareness and identity laced through the humour and suspense." - Author Natalie Corbett Sampson
