Why is Christmas the way it is? How did we get from the birth of Jesus to everyone pushing their credit card and their belts to their maximum extent? Starting with the events surrounding Jesus' birth, this book takes us through centuries of commemoration, celebration and over-consumption. Along the way we'll find out why we eat turkey, how an obscure Turkish saint turned into a man flying a sleigh, and why that tree in your house should really contain an apple and a snake. Combining in-depth historical research, cheerfully irreverent humour and cutting-edge guesswork, Nick Page explores what this festival really means, and how we can get back to something real and true beneath all that wrapping.

All I want for Christmas is YOU ! À cause de sa phobie de l'avion, Loah, qui a promis à sa meilleure amie de venir fêter Noël à New York avec elle, accepte de faire la route en compagnie d'Eliel. Sauf que passer cinquante heures enfermés dans une voiture n'est pas aussi simple qu'il y paraît. En particulier lorsque celui qui partage ce covoiturage est aussi séducteur qu'incroyablement secret. De Salem à New York, le voyage va se révéler aussi périlleux que déjanté et addictif pour la journaliste et le chasseur de trésors. Deux cœurs esseulés peuvent-ils parvenir à se rencontrer grâce à la magie de Noël ? *** – Vaughn ! interpellé-je le gardien de l’immeuble. C’est Loah. Cette saloperie s’est encore bloquée ! – Cette fois, j’en ai marre, râle le quinquagénaire dans un grésillement affreux pour mes tympans. Cinq minutes et je relance le monstre, petite. Ensuite, je passe un coup de fil au propriétaire. Il va m’entendre, cet abruti de… Une flopée d’insultes s’envole puis diminue à mesure que Vaughn semble s’éloigner. Seulement alors je me retourne sur l’inconnu. Ce dernier, la tête penchée sur le côté, me sourit. Encore. En moins arrogant certes, mais avec tout de même une pointe d’insolence. Bon, à sa décharge, j’imagine que faire littéralement bugger une fille en l'ayant tout juste frôlé du regard a de quoi gonfler l’ego. Cela étant dit, ce qui se trouve autour de ses yeux n’est pas mal non plus… Des mèches châtains coiffées en un désordre calculé effleurent son front tandis qu’un léger voile plus foncé couvre sa mâchoire qui se contracte soudain. J’analyse longuement cette dernière. Peut-être trop, d’ailleurs, si j’en crois sa bouche, courbée en un pli sensuel, qui se pince fort. À contrecœur, je m’en détache pour tomber sur son torse caché par un manteau d’un bleu sombre dont l’ourlet arrive à mi-cuisse. Opérant le chemin inverse, mon regard retrouve le sien qui me scrute sous un sourcil arqué. – À présent que nous sommes presque intimes, il serait peut-être temps de passer aux présentations, non ? raille-t-il d’une voix rauque, légèrement ébréchée, qui n’arrange en rien le désordre dans mes cellules nerveuses. – Intimes ? – Vous venez de me détailler encore plus attentivement que le fait ma mère après six mois sans me voir, ricane-t-il. – Désolée, m’excusé-je dans un rire. C’était assez malpoli de ma part, j’avoue. Le coin de ses commissures se relève, rehausse sa pommette gauche. Puis il s’adosse à la paroi métallique, fourre ses poings dans les poches de son jean en écartant les pans de son manteau et, d’un timbre coulant, il rétorque : – Aucun souci. J’ai connu pire qu’une jolie femme me dévorant des yeux. – Et j’ai connu mieux comme phrase de drague. – On vous drague souvent ? – Pardon ? – Vous prétendez connaître mieux. Du coup, je m’intéresse. Soit vous vous faites draguer souvent et, là, votre expérience est assez significative pour en juger. Soit ce n’est pas le cas et donc j’ai le droit de ne pas me fier à votre remarque. J’aimerais juste savoir où me situer… – À la frontière entre l’arrogance et l’inconvenance, voilà où vous vous situez. Un rictus satisfait fend son visage et provoque, par je ne sais quel stratagème, un sourire amusé sur le mien. – J’aime assez. Je devrais tenter la panne d’ascenseur plus souvent. Just for Christmas, d’Izia Soley, premiers chapitres du roman.

This Boston-based mystery stars smart and sassy Beantown Banner reporter Liz Higgins, who rails at being assigned only light news highlighted in front page teasers. She vows to change that by finding a missing mom and nailing front-page news in the process. Liz's quest takes her into Boston's lively Irish pub/Celtic music scene, the elegant Wellesley landscape, and as far as Fiji. Along the way, she courageously pursues a tangle of clues and falls for two very different men: the enigmatic forensics expert Dr. Cormack Kinnaird and the warmhearted Tom Horton, who pastes ads on the huge billboard that dwarfs Liz's tiny house on the edge of the Mass Pike.
