Behind the Scenes: Lords of Dogtown takes readers deep inside the making of this summer's hotly acticipated film, Lords of Dogtown, starring Emile Hirsch, Victor Rasuk, John Robinson, and Heath Ledger. Set in the 1970s, the film tells the story of a group of teenage surfers from a neighborhood known as Dogtown in Venice, California. The Z-Boys, known for their fearless surfing style, took the death-defying moves they'd perfected on the water to the street - and in the process inventing the extreme stakeboarding style they became famous for. In creating this book, director Catherine Hardwicke worked closely with the cast and crew to provide as detailed a view of the making of the movie as possible. The result is a book that truly captures the energy of the set. It's filled with hundreds of amazing, never-before-seen photographs, and is packed with quick, easy-to-read information on everything from the story, to the actors, to the stunts featured in the film.

But all three stay—first because of the storm that changes to a blizzard and finally because they all have a reason to stay. But when the abandoned groom discovers the location of his intended, drastic measures must be taken and the runaway bride must make a quick, frightening decision. (435pp. Masthof Press, 2019.)

Creative, physical, graphic, urban and controversial, it is full of contradictions – a billion-dollar global industry which still retains its vibrant, counter-cultural heart. Skateboarding and the City presents the only complete history of the sport, exploring the story of skate culture from the surf-beaches of '60s California to the latest developments in street-skating today. Written by a life-long skater who also happens to be an architectural historian, and packed through with full-colour images – of skaters, boards, moves, graphics, and film-stills – this passionate, readable and rigorously-researched book explores the history of skateboarding and reveals a vivid understanding of how skateboarders, through their actions, experience the city and its architecture in a unique way.
A Lord's Christmas Wish by Bethany M. Sefchick Pdf
In a secluded London library, Lord Eli Queensbury committed the ultimate sin – he kissed his best friend’s sister and fell madly in love. As a spy for the Crown, he should have known better, so he did the only thing he could. He cut off all contact with the woman who had held his heart since childhood. Now, however, Eli finds himself at her family’s castle for Christmastide on a matter of great urgency. He also has to hope that the woman he spurned doesn’t toss him out into the snow before he can complete his mission. One magical spring night, Lady Christi Thorne gave away her heart to her childhood friend, Eli Queensbury, who then turned around and smashed that same heart to bits. She hopes that spending the Christmas season with her family at Highburn Castle will help her heal and move on with her life. However, when Eli appears at her front door in the middle of a blizzard, she can’t decide whether to kiss him or slam the door in his face. As Eli attempts to win Christi’s forgiveness, secrets from his past threaten to destroy any chance he has with the woman who has always held his heart. Can Christi forgive Eli for breaking her heart? If she does, can she also accept the truth of who he is or will this lord’s Christmas wish forever be denied? This 73,700-word "novella", which is a companion piece to the “Tales From Seldon Park” series, is written in the modern, Regency romance style for a slightly hotter and sexier read. It may not be appropriate for younger audiences.
