When a moment of defiance turns into a living nightmare, Eve will do whatever it takes to survive, even if that means making a deal with a devil of a man. EVE: Daughter of a shipping mogul, Eve Deverough leads a charmed life. She wants for nothing, except for the love of her cold and distant father. In a moment of defiance, she runs off to Cancun, shedding her private security for some fun in the sun over spring break. Only there is no fun. There is no sun. Eve's kidnapped off the streets of Cancun, transported in a shipping container with twelve other girls, to be sold off to the highest bidder in an auction of the vilest kind. Only Eve's worth more to her kidnapper than being sold at market. She's being held for ransom. As days turn to weeks, and weeks turn to months, the ransom demands escalate. Held captive by the despicable human trafficker, Tomas Benefield, in his stronghold hidden in the jungles of Colombia, Eve's freedom is in jeopardy. Which forces her to do the unthinkable. MAX: Leader of Guardian HRS's Alpha Team, Max volunteers for an undercover mission to rescue the daughter of a shipping mogul who's been kidnapped. Despite paying escalating ransom demands, her captors refuse to free her and her father is running out of cash. Eve's photos tell a somber picture and Max is ready to answer the call. How he's going to play the part of a brutal and depraved monster is beyond him, but there's no other way. He'll infiltrate The Retreat, a compound hidden in the jungles of Colombia, posing as a buyer intent on buying a girl at auction. He's not prepared for the intense attraction he feels for Eve and fights to remain professional. Above all else, he's laser-focused on Rescuing Eve. Failing is not an option. As his attraction builds, there's one BIG problem. Instead of a rescuer, all Eve sees is another monstrous man intent on defiling an unwilling girl. She hates him on sight. Rescuing Eve is non-stop action with an in-depth look at the Columbian human trafficking business. Max is sure to steal your heart with his respect towards women, his sculpted physique, and morals that withstand the ever-present temptations of The Retreat, not to mention The Oasis. This book will keep you engaged and captivated and is sure to test you when it comes to watching the slow-burning chemistry unfold between Max and Eve.

A new novel set in the world of the popular science fiction online role playing game, EVE. We all crave a purpose. A fire to spark our lives into action. It's this burning life within that drives us to our destinies. But when it burns too deep, or goes unchecked, it can shatter innocent lives in its wake. A vicious attack on a deep-space mining colony rains death and destruction on nearly all its inhabitants. Only a handful survive. Among the shattered survivors is a young man, hell-bent on an impossible revenge. In another part of the universe, a wealthy agent of death finds her tenuous grip on sanity slipping, and is forced to leave everything she's come to know and love. But her last chance at redemption lies in the last place she ever thought to look. Their respective paths take them through the vast universe of EVE, to galactic empires built on faith, hedonism, discipline, and rebellion. Their fates plunge them into the darkest parts of this galaxy, to encounters with denizens of the chaotic and dangerous pirate kingdoms. And all the while, as each draws closer to what they seek, they begin to realize that the only stakes worth playing for are the ones from which they've run so far away. . . .

Genre: Literary Criticism
ISBN: 9780791405055

This book is designed for the medievalist interested in contemporary criticism but cautious about its limits. The volume's essays are not designed to offer rereadings of familiar texts, but to address the problems of articulating tradition and contemporary theory. Each contributor interprets critical methods as consciously chosen and spoken "languages," and explores the consequences of combining a traditional and a contemporary method, and hence, speaking two languages. Each essay includes a critical bibliographical note pointing to further reading in the languages it employs.

In the Name of National Security

ISBN: 0822382237

In the Name of National Security exposes the ways in which the films of Alfred Hitchcock, in conjunction with liberal intellectuals and political figures of the 1950s, fostered homophobia so as to politicize issues of gender in the United States. As Corber shows, throughout the 1950s a cast of mind known as the Cold War consensus prevailed in the United States. Promoted by Cold War liberals--that is, liberals who wanted to perserve the legacies of the New Deal but also wished to separate liberalism from a Communist-dominated cultural politics--this consensus was grounded in the perceived threat that Communists, lesbians, and homosexuals posed to national security. Through an analysis of the films of Alfred Hitchcock, combined with new research on the historical context in which these films were produced, Corber shows how Cold War liberals tried to contain the increasing heterogeneity of American society by linking questions of gender and sexual identity directly to issues of national security, a strategic move that the films of Hitchcock both legitimated and at times undermined. Drawing on psychoanalytic and Marxist theory, Corber looks at such films as Rear Window, Strangers on a Train, and Psycho to show how Hitchcock manipulated viewers' attachments and identifications to foster and reinforce the relationship between homophobia and national security issues. A revisionary account of Hitchcock's major works, In the Name of National Security is also of great interest for what it reveals about the construction of political "reality" in American history.
