A tragic secret binds them together… Revealing the truth could tear them apart. Primal Bargains A wounded beast in hiding, a brazen beauty, and a killer secret from his past… Tess: The dark rumors that swirl around Gideon Wolfe both frighten and intrigue me. I’m desperate for the job he’s offering—and intensely curious to see the beastly billionaire recluse for myself. But soon I’m trapped in his castle and entangled in his secrets… and his bed. I’m in deep and I don’t want to find my way out. Gideon: People would kill to know the deadly secrets of my past. And when someone tries to steal one, I realize I can’t trust anyone… not even the men who share that past. But Tess is different. I have to trust her if she’s going to finish this job—still, I’m keeping her by my side twenty-four seven. But when I start to fall for her, she’ll be the biggest danger of all. Deadly Appetites A playboy and an ice princess make a seductive bargain while the secrets of his past stalk them both… Victoria: Cassian is exactly the kind of charming playboy I hate. Smooth talker. Game player. Heartbreaker. I’ve been burned by his kind in the past. But he takes it to the next level with his sultry gaze and hard, powerful build. He’s got an Achilles’ heel though: there’s a dark secret from his past, threatening to destroy his empire. And he comes to me for help. But he’s not getting me for free. Cassian’s going to teach me his tricks of seduction. Once I’ve cracked his code, I’ll beat the bad boys at their own game. Except with a single, sizzling kiss, Cassian tears down all my defenses. And suddenly I’m in over my head and falling fast. Cassian: Victoria’s ice-princess act doesn’t fool me. Inside that beautiful, frosty facade, I know I’ll find a woman made of pure fire. But no matter how much she tries to maintain her distance, I need her. She’s going to help me keep the secrets of my past where they belong—buried deep. Victoria agrees to help if I give her a crash course in seduction. Little Miss Uptight wants to learn how a bad boy operates? She’s about to get a lesson she’ll never forget. As I unwrap more of the real Victoria though, I’m realizing I want to do more than teach her—I want her for my own. Forever. Covert Sins Deadly secrets stalk them both… Archer: The whole world knows that Zara hates me—she’s told them several times over. But she’s the only one who can help me right now. I can’t be distracted by her short skirts and sassy mouth when my dark past stalks me. If I lose my focus, we’ll both be in danger. But when I’m near her, she’s the only thing I see. Zara: Humorless, stuffy, and completely wrong for me, that’s Archer. I’ll laugh in his face before I translate anything for him. But then he makes me an offer I can’t refuse. The more I learn about him, the more I see that his past is more mystery than fact. And that his stuffiness hides a passion I can’t resist. I need to keep away, but the closer I get to knowing the real man, the harder he is to resist. beauty beast forced proximity romance billionaire office billionaire wealthy suspense suspence romantic second chance comedy alpha club books series boys workplace office banker male steamy hot sizzling novel enemies lovers thriller adventure silicon valley tech venture capitalist tycoon stand-alone boxed set box anthology collection

Marx’s Inferno reconstructs the major arguments of Karl Marx’s Capital and inaugurates a completely new reading of a seminal classic. Rather than simply a critique of classical political economy, William Roberts argues that Capital was primarily a careful engagement with the motives and aims of the workers’ movement. Understood in this light, Capital emerges as a profound work of political theory. Placing Marx against the background of nineteenth-century socialism, Roberts shows how Capital was ingeniously modeled on Dante’s Inferno, and how Marx, playing the role of Virgil for the proletariat, introduced partisans of workers’ emancipation to the secret depths of the modern “social Hell.” In this manner, Marx revised republican ideas of freedom in response to the rise of capitalism. Combining research on Marx’s interlocutors, textual scholarship, and forays into recent debates, Roberts traces the continuities linking Marx’s theory of capitalism to the tradition of republican political thought. He immerses the reader in socialist debates about the nature of commerce, the experience of labor, the power of bosses and managers, and the possibilities of political organization. Roberts rescues those debates from the past, and shows how they speak to ever-renewed concerns about political life in today’s world.

Capital: Volume One by Karl Marx is a classic of political economics and was described by Friedrich Engels, the author's friend and collaborator, as "the bible of the working class." Thirty years in the making, this 1867 publication was the first in the three-part Das Kapital series and the only volume published during Marx's lifetime. The polemic asserts that society is advancing from primitive economic systems toward the utopian state of communism. It remains a work of tremendous importance and influence and offers an astute critique of capitalism, exploring commodities, value, money, and other factors related to the system's historic origins and contemporary functions. The examination of these elements forms the basis of Marxist doctrine: the system is irredeemable, a revolution is imperative, and a socialist system is the only viable alternative, providing a structure in which production serves the needs of all rather than the enrichment of the elite. AUTHOR: Philosopher and radical thinker Karl Marx (1818-74) was expelled from Germany and France after publishing controversial material, including The Communist Manifesto, which he co-wrote with Friedrich Engels. In 1848, he was exiled to London, where he wrote Das Kapital and resided for the remainder of his life.

A survey of the quirks and quandaries of the English language, focusing on our strange and wonderful grammar Why do we say “I am reading a catalog” instead of “I read a catalog”? Why do we say “do” at all? Is the way we speak a reflection of our cultural values? Delving into these provocative topics and more, Our Magnificent Bastard Language distills hundreds of years of fascinating lore into one lively history. Covering such turning points as the little-known Celtic and Welsh influences on English, the impact of the Viking raids and the Norman Conquest, and the Germanic invasions that started it all during the fifth century ad, John McWhorter narrates this colorful evolution with vigor. Drawing on revolutionary genetic and linguistic research as well as a cache of remarkable trivia about the origins of English words and syntax patterns, Our Magnificent Bastard Tongue ultimately demonstrates the arbitrary, maddening nature of English— and its ironic simplicity due to its role as a streamlined lingua franca during the early formation of Britain. This is the book that language aficionados worldwide have been waiting for (and no, it’s not a sin to end a sentence with a preposition).

Karl Marx's monumental work 'The Capital (Vol. 1-3)' delves into the economic and social theories that would lay the groundwork for the development of communism. Written in a dense, analytical style, Marx thoroughly dissects the workings of capitalism, highlighting its exploitative nature and predicting its inevitable downfall. The book is a cornerstone of Marxist literature, providing a critical analysis of the capitalist system and presenting a vision for a more just society. The Capital is not only a philosophical treatise but also a call to action, urging readers to recognize and challenge the inequities inherent in capitalist structures. Marx's revolutionary ideas continue to influence political thought and economic theory to this day. Karl Marx, a prolific philosopher and economist, was motivated by a deep-rooted belief in social justice and equality. His experiences witnessing the suffering of the working class fueled his desire to expose the injustices perpetuated by capitalist societies. Marx's rigorous research and intellectual prowess shaped his groundbreaking analysis of capitalism in The Capital, solidifying his place as a seminal figure in the history of political thought. I highly recommend 'The Capital' to readers interested in exploring the philosophical underpinnings of communism and gaining a deeper understanding of the critiques of capitalism. Marx's insightful analysis provides a thought-provoking perspective on the economic system that continues to shape the world we live in.
