Catherine Bell, a famous concert pianist, is struggling to hold on to her career in a competitive international arena that spans the classical music capitals of the world. After a disastrous show in Copenhagen, Cathy is about to attempt her first concert performance without alcohol in Prague when her marriage implodes, her terminally ill, Czech-born mother goes missing from her London hospital, and a much needed highly paid recording deal falls through. Cathy finds herself coping in the only way she knows how: grasping a glass of forbidden pre-performance champagne and flirting with Tomas, a stranger in a Prague nightclub. While her therapist Nelly advises her to abstain, Cathy's relationship with drink, and Tomas, draws her deep into a whirlpool of events as mysterious, tense and seductive as Prague itself. Justine Ettler's discipline in the writing is as controlled as Cathy is out of control – the novel brilliantly references classics such as Wuthering Heights – and as with Rachel in The Girl on a Train the reader is drawn into the protagonist's predicament with moving, palpable intensity. Bohemia Beach is an edge of your seat ride, a compelling story of addiction, passionate love and the power of art. It heralds the return of one of Australia's most distinctive authors. ‘Ettler is back after twenty years and the wait has been worth it. This is a mesmerising story of art and addiction – the author at her provocative best.’ Nikki Gemmell

Immerse yourself in a collection of the first three full-length romances in Lucy Lakestone's sizzling Bohemia Beach Series! In a beautiful small city on Florida’s east coast, artists meet, create, laugh and love. Where restless hearts are fueled by secrets and imagination, romance is impossible to resist. Welcome to the seductive tropical escape that’s home to drama, humor and lots of heat – Bohemia Beach. These steamy contemporary romances are the perfect escape for anyone who loves a hot love story. In this boxed set of three novels, you'll find stories of an artist's obsession with a mysterious patron, a photographer seduced by a big-wave surfer, and a musician who discovers unexpected fire in an old friend. Bohemia Beach (Book 1 - Sloane and Alex's story): Alex is a mystery: Secretive. Rich. Way too hot for his own good. I’m an artist just trying to make it as a potter, and why he wants me, I don’t know. I’m starting over in this beautiful beach town, and saying “yes” to him is part of the adventure. Until yes becomes something more. My new artist friends are quirky and cool. My teacher is alarmingly obnoxious. I’m working hard to get into the big juried exhibition. And I keep losing myself in Alex’s arms. He’s insatiable. I’m addicted. But under his quietly forceful exterior is a man wounded to his core. Can obsession turn into love? And can passion overcome the past? Or is Alex the worst best thing that ever happened to me? Bohemia Light (Book 2 - Cali and Wyatt's story): Wherever I go, I’m there to shoot the photos. Not get entangled with pro surfers looking for a dalliance before they split town. Whether Wyatt is trying to set me up with his famous jerkwad friend or coaxing me to test my limits, I’m not sure if I should hate him or give him everything. He’s a photographer, too, but I’m afraid what’s developing between us will expose feelings I’d rather not have. I’ll be glad when he leaves. I need to focus on setting up my new business. Besides, how could I ever be with a surfer? The ocean terrifies me. Still, some temptations are impossible to resist, especially when they don’t have consequences. But after our reckless tryst, Wyatt’s still in Bohemia Beach. Will he stay or will he go? He’s inconveniently irresistible. And I can’t seem to keep my heart above water. Bohemia Blues (Book 3 - Ez and Gary's story): Maybe I’m sick of dating losers, but they’re just so convenient. They don’t expect much. I expect even less. And I really don’t want the complications of, say, dating an old friend from high school who follows my band around like a groupie. But when my latest boy toy goes ballistic at a gig, who’s there to rescue me? Gary. And there’s no chemistry with Gary. Or at least that’s what I thought until the moment he set my world on fire. There’s no reason a good guy like that would want a gal with such a bad reputation, even if I have a big secret that proves just how undeserved that reputation is. OK, a few big secrets, secrets that could make this friends-to-lovers experiment blow up in our faces. I just want to make music, not fall in love with a dorky artist. A super-hot dorky artist who takes my breath away and always believes the best of me, even when I know I’m the worst. (Winner of the Golden Quill and a National Readers' Choice Award finalist)

Early in the 1900s, one-time oil baron Henry Morrison Flagler took interest in the Southern coast of Florida and began developing an exclusive resort community. Establishing a railroad that would allow easier access to the area, he went on to build two hotels—his hope was that America’s first families would come to populate the area. This modest community would later evolve into an iconic American destination, hosting British royalty, American movie stars, and becoming the home-away-from-home to some of the country’s leading families. As the century continued, Palm Beach established itself as a luxury hideaway synonymous with old-world glamour and new-world sophistication. In this splendid volume, longtime resident and Palm Beach social fixture Aerin Lauder takes us through her Palm Beach. From favorite restaurants like Nandos and Renatos, to favorite houses like La Follia and Villa Artemis, she takes us to the elite shopping of Worth Avenue and the scenic walkways of the Lake Worth trail, all the while relating to us the histories, faces, and places that have become so identified with Palm Beach.

An intimate portrait of a legendary generation of artists, writers, activists, and dreamers who created a utopia on the shores of Cape Cod during the first half of the twentieth century. Their names are iconic: Eugene O’Neill, Willem de Kooning, Josef and Anni Albers, Emma Goldman, Mary McCarthy, Edward Hopper, Walter Gropius—the list goes on and on. Scorning the devastation that industrialization had wrought on the nation’s workforce and culture in the early decades of the twentieth century, they gathered in the streets of Greenwich Village and on the beach - fronts of Cape Cod. They began as progressives but soon turned to socialism, then communism. They founded theaters, periodicals, and art schools. They formed editorial boards that met in beach shacks and performed radical new plays in a shanty on the docks, where they could see the ocean through cracks in the floor. They welcomed the tremendous wave of talent fleeing Europe in the 1930s. At the end of their era, in the 1960s, as the postwar economy boomed, they took shelter in liberalism when the anticapitalist movement fragmented into other causes. John Taylor “Ike” Williams, who married into the Cape’s artistic world and has spent half a century talking about and walking along its shores with these cultural and political luminaries, renders the twisting lives and careers of a generation of staggering American thinkers and creators. The Shores of Bohemia records a great set of shifts in American culture and the ideas and arguments fueled by drink, infidelity, and competition that made for a fifty-year conversation among intellectual leaders and creative revolutionaries. Together they found a community as they created some of the great works of the American Century. This is their story. Welcome to the party!

Bohemia has been variously defined as a mythical country, a state of mind, a tavern by the wayside on the road of life. The editors of this volume prefer a leaner definition: an attitude of dissent from the prevailing values of middle-class society, one dependent on the existence of caf life. But whatever definition is preferred, this rich and long overdue collective portrait of Bohemian life in a large variety of settings is certain to engage and even entrance readers of all types: from the student of culture to social researchers and literary figures n search of their ancestral roots. The work is international in scope and social scientific in conception. But because of the special nature of the Bohemian fascination, the volume is also graced by an unusually larger number of exquisite literary essays. Hence, one will find in this anthology writings by Malcolm Cowely, Norman Podhoretz, Norman Mailer, Theophile Gautier, Honore de Balzac, Mary Austin, Stefan Zweig, Nadine Gordimer, and Ernest Hemingway. Social scientists are well represented by Cesar Grana, Ephraim Mizruchi, W.I. Thomas, Florian Znaniecki, Harvey Zorbaugh, John R. Howard, and G. William Domhoff, among others.The volume is sectioned into major themes in the history of Bohemia: social and literary origins, testimony by the participants, analysis by critics of and crusaders for the bohemian life, the ideological characteristics of the bohemians, and the long term prospect as well as retrospect for bohemenianism as a system, culture and ideology. The editors have provided a framework for examining some fundamental themes in social structure and social deviance: What are the levels of toleration within a society? Do artists deserve and receive special treatment by the powers that be? And what are the connections between bohemian life-styles and political protest movements?This is an anthology and not a treatise, so the reader is free to pick and choose not only wha
