The Girl Leaned Forward Impulsively From The Leisurely Moving Victoria And Looked Back At The Automobile Which Whizzed By The Carriage, Along The Maple-Lined Road Leading From Washington To Chevy Chase; Then She As Suddenly Resumed Her Former Position When She Discovered That The Young Man, Who Was The Only Occupant Of The Motor-Car, Had Slowed Down And Was Gazing Back At Her. "How Impertinent!" She Exclaimed, Flushing, Addressing Herself Rather Than The Older Woman Beside Her. "Of Course, It Couldn'T Be Allen; But If It Wasn'T, Why Was He Looking Back At Me? Did You Recognize Him, Eleanor?" "Who'S Impertinent?" Queried Patricia, Who Sat Between Them And Exercised A Ten-Year-Old Sister'S Prerogative. [mehr]

At The End Of A Long, Straight Avenue Of Symmetrically Developed Water Maple Trees (The Trunks Of All The Trees Whitewashed To Precisely The Same Height From The Ground) The House Gleamed Creamy-White, Directly Facing The Pike. Its Broad Front Door Came Exactly Within The Middle Distance Of This Vista Of Maples, As Though The Long-Ago Builder Had Known That Miss Eliza's Orderly Soul Would Have Suffered Much Unhappiness Had It Swerved A Fraction From The Centre And, Looking Forward To The Time When She Should Rule At The Farm, Had Planned It All To Save Her The Trouble Of A Change. Miss Eliza Would Have Been Sorely Tempted To Move Either The House Or The Avenue, Had Not The Front Door Been So Placed As To Be Viewed From The Exact Middle Of That Avenue; Such Was Her Passion For Neatness And Precision.

Ugh, What A Miserable Thing Is A Voyage! Here We Are Now Eight Days At Sea, The Eternal Sameness Of All Around Growing Every Hour Less Supportable. Sea And Sky Are Beautiful Things When Seen From The Dark Woods And Waving Meadows On Shore; But Their Picturesque Effect Is Sadly Marred From Want Of Contrast. Besides That, The "_Toujours_ Pork," With Crystals Of Salt As Long As Your Wife's Fingers; The Potatoes That Seemed Varnished In French Polish; The Tea Seasoned With Geological Specimens From The Basin Of London, Ycleped Maple Sugar; And The Butter--Ye Gods, The Butter! But Why Enumerate These Smaller Features Of Discomfort And Omit The More Glaring Ones?--The Utter Selfishness Which Blue Water Suggests, As Inevitably As The Cold Fit Follows The Ague. [mehr]

A Large, Old-Fashioned, Weird-Looking Wooden Building, With Strangely Shaped Bay Windows And Stranger Gables Projecting Here And There From The Slanting Roof, Where The Green Moss Clung In Patches To The Moldy Shingles, Or Formed A Groundwork For The Nests The Swallows Built Year After Year Beneath The Decaying Eaves. Long, Winding Piazzas, Turning Sharp, Sudden Angles, And Low, Square Porches, Where The Summer Sunshine Held Many A Fantastic Dance, And Where The Winter Storm Piled Up Its Drifts Of Snow, Whistling Merrily As It Worked, And Shaking The Loosened Casement As It Went Whirling By. Huge Trees Of Oak And Maple, Whose Topmost Limbs Had Borne And Cast The Leaf For Nearly A Century Of Years, Tall Evergreens, Among Whose Boughs The Autumn Wind Ploughed Mournfully, Making Sad Music For Those Who Cared To Listen, And Adding To The Loneliness Which, During Many Years, Had Invested The Old Place.

Also For The Two Sailors, Wilson And Mulrady, Who Were To Accompany Their Captain. Ayrton'S Place Was, Of Course, To Be In front Of The Wagon, And M. Olbinett, Who Did Not Much Care For Equitation, Was To Make Room For Himself Among The Baggage. Horses And Bullocks Were Grazing In the Irishman'S Meadows, Ready To Fetch At A Moment'S Notice. After All Arrangements Were Made, And The Carpenter Set To Work, John Mangles Escorted the Irishman And His Family Back To The Vessel, For Paddy Wished to Return The Visit Of Lord Glenarvan. Ayrton Thought Proper To Go Too, And About Four O'Clock The Party Came Over The Side Of The Duncan. They Were Received with Open Arms. Glenarvan Would Not Be Outstripped In Politeness, And Invited his Visitors To Stop And Dine. His Hospitality Was Willingly Accepted. Paddy Was Quite Amazed At The Splendor Of The Saloon, And Was Loud In admiration Of The Fitting Up Of The Cabins, And The Carpets And Hangings, As Well As Of The Polished maple-Wood Of The Upper Deck. Ayrton'S Approbation Was Much Less Hearty, For He Considered It Mere Costly Superfluity. [mehr]

I always liked the snow. The way it fell gently and softly from the sky above. Or, when it landed on your nose and you could see the perfect white snowflake. All in all, my favorite is when you wake up after a blizzard or a snow storm. In Pennsylvania, it was perfectly normal to wake up in early January and find the world covered in a thick layer of beautiful white snow. Great old maple trees that were once covered in green leaves in the summer, were now bare and covered in snow. Or the Ever Green trees covered in white and green. Winter is magic……. So what if I told you that magic is real? “This magical person was born the coldest night of winter. Blessed with Pure white hair long and full. Her beauty for no one can compare, light crystal blue orbs, her face perfectly sculpted, her skin as pale as the moon for which she was born under. For she is the child snow, ‘The Guardian of winter ’” -Rain R. *This is the Final Cover* [mehr]

The Meeting in the Maple Walk St George'S Hall, Situated on A High Hill Overlooking the City Of Warwick, Was Still Silent And Tenantless, Though The Long Vacation Was Drawing to A Close. To A Stranger Passing that Way For The First Time, The Building and The Surrounding country Would Doubtless Have Suggested The Old England Rather Than The New. There Was Something mediaeval In The Massive, Castellated tower That Carried the Eye Upward Past The Great, Arched doorway, The Thin, Deep-Set Windows, The Leaded eaves And Grinning gargoyles, Into The Cool Sky Of The September Morning. The Stranger, Were He Rich In good Traditions, Would Pause In Admiration Of The Pure Collegiate-Gothic Style Of The Low Hall That Extended north And South Three Hundred feet In either Direction From The Base Of The Great Tower; He Would Note The Artistry Of The Iron-Braced, Oaken Doors, Flanked at The Lintels By Inscrutable Faces Of Carven Stone, Of The Windows With Their Diamonded panes Of Milky Glass Peeping through A Wilderness Of Encroaching vines.

Hier spielen wir nach meinen Regeln, verstanden Schneewittchen?! Cole Mitchell hat die Schnauze gestrichen voll von den Weibern! Von der Freundin betrogen, schwört er dem weiblichen Geschlecht ab und wird zu dem Bad Boy von einst. Damit nicht genug, könnte das neue Jahr nicht beschissener starten, denn bereits sein erster Flug wird ein wahrer Höllentrip: Der Absturz mit seinem Helikopter und der bildschönen Alexis Moreau in den verschneiten Bergen Kanadas macht die Katastrophe perfekt. Leider war die letzte Begegnung mit ihr alles andere als erfreulich.Eingeschneit in einer Hütte muss sich Cole mit der zickigen Schönheit auf engstem Raum arrangieren. Gar nicht so leicht, denn dieser sexy Vamp ist pure Sünde und bringt seinen eisernen Vorsatz gehörig ins Wanken. Aber verdammt, er ist auch nur ein Mann.Wird sie ihn von seiner festgefahrenen Meinung zur High Society abbringen oder erfüllt sie das Klischee der verwöhnten, reichen Zicke und er behält recht? Aber vielleicht ist das völlig egal, da er mit seiner vorlauten Klappe ohnehin alles zerstört hat. Band 1 der Red Maple Reihe - Eine spannende, emotionale und außergewöhnliche Love-Story! Vorwissen aus der Bad Boys of Vancouver Reihe ist nicht zwingend notwendig, jedoch empfehlenswert. [mehr]
