Taming a King by Isla Drake Pdf

Wyatt I've always been the wild King twin. The least likely to settle down. The daring one. The player. The one who never takes anything too seriously. To be fair, most of my reputation has been exaggerated over the years. But I've never minded. I've used it to my advantage, playing up the rumors that swirl around this small town. I've never cared what people think about me and I've never needed to work hard to impress a woman. Until now. Since the first time I laid eyes on Hope Sinclair, I haven't been able to get her off my mind. After the disappearing act she pulled the night we first met, I spend weeks trying to find my mystery woman. When she shows up again, out of the blue, I can't help but feel the same intense pull toward her. Too bad she believes everything she's heard about me. She won't give me a chance to prove there's more to me than my wild reputation. Instead, she's decided friendship is all we can have. Which is why I'm shocked when she walks up to me at my bar one night and kisses the hell out of me. She's using me to make her ex back off, but I don't care. This is the opening I need to finally show Hope there's more to me than she thinks. What are the odds I can convince her to turn this fake relationship into something real?

Taming the King by D. D. Chance Pdf

I swore nothing would screw up the alliance I'd finally forged with the king of the Fae. Then I was captured by his mortal enemy. ❤️ It's Complicated. Marrying the brutally gorgeous, fiercely proud, and irredeemably arrogant High King of the Fae wasn't on my punch list a few weeks ago, but it was the fastest way to keep my people safe. Then the Fae's ancient enemies strike. The darkly twisted ruler of the Fomorians rips me into his underworld prison...and tells me I'm now his bride, too. Even worse? Once my beautiful Fae king learns how I've unwittingly betrayed him, his only solution is war. To stop the bloody battle that will destroy two of the most powerful races in all the realms-and take down Earth's witches too-I've got to call in every favor and squeeze every last drop of magic I can from my Hogan blood. It still might not be enough. Because witches' hearts are meant for breaking, traitors hide around every corner, and when it comes to Fae, Fomorian, and especially witchling magic-nothing is as it seems. Taming the King is a slow-burn rejected mate Fae kidnap fantasy romance, and book 3 of 3 in the Witchling Academy series.

The Taming of the Shrew by William Shakespeare Pdf

In the lively town of Padua, the wealthy Baptista Minola seeks suitors for his two daughters, Bianca and the sharp-tongued Katharina, known as the shrew. Desiring to marry Bianca, several men vie for her hand, but Baptista insists that Katharina must marry first. Petruchio, a brash gentleman from Verona, arrives seeking a wealthy wife and sets his sights on Katharina. Despite her fiery resistance, Petruchio employs unconventional methods to »tame« her, leading to a tumultuous and comedic battle of wills. The Taming of the Shrew presents a contentious portrayal of gender roles and relationships, inviting scrutiny and debate. While its central premise of a woman being »tamed« has drawn criticism for its patriarchal overtones, the play's complex characters and witty dialogue continue to captivate audiences. Over the centuries, interpretations of the play have evolved, with modern adaptations exploring themes of power dynamics, consent, and the nature of love. WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE [1564-1616], born in Stratford-upon-Avon in Warwickshire, England, is known as the greatest playwright of all time, with his name attached to a long line of immortal plays, including Othello, Romeo & Juliet, Hamlet, King Lear, and Macbeth.

The Taming of the Turk by Bent Holm Pdf

For centuries the figure of ‘the Turk’ spread fascination and fear - in the theatre of war and on the theatrical stage. On the one hand, ‘the Turk’ represented a spectacular dimension, an imaginary world of pirates, sultans and odalisques; on the other hand, he stood for the actual Ottoman Empire, engaged in long-lasting confrontations and exchanges with Occidental powers. When confronted with historical circumstances - military, commercial and religious - the cliché image of ‘the Turk’ dissolves in complex combinations of potential references. The Taming of the Turk: Ottomans on the Danish Stage 1596-1896 elucidates, for the first time, three centuries of cultural history as articulated in dealings between the Kingdom of Denmark and the Ottoman Empire seen in a general European context. From the staging of ‘the Turk’ as a diabolical player in royal ceremonies of early modern times, to the appearance of harmless ‘Turkish’ entertainment figures in the late nineteenth century. Artistic, theatrical and theological conceptions co-act in paradoxical ways against a backdrop of pragmatic connections with the Ottomans. The story of this long-forgotten connection between a small northern-European nation and a mighty Oriental empire is based on a source material - plays, paintings, treaties, travelogues etc. - that has hitherto chiefly been neglected, although it played a significant role in earlier times. The images of ‘exotic’ figures sometimes even turn out to be self-images. The documents hold the keys to a number of mental and fundamental (pre)conditions, and thus even to imagery constructions of our day.

The Taming of the Demons by Anonim Pdf

A newly translated volume of the centuries-old spiritual epic of King Gesar. For centuries, the epic tale of Gesar of Ling has been told across Asia. This epic is a living oral tradition, performed widely by singers and bards and beloved especially in Tibet. Considered the longest single piece of literature in the world canon, the epic of Gesar chronicles the legend of King Gesar of Ling, a heroic figure known for his fearless leadership. The epic encompasses some 120 volumes and nearly 20 million words, and there are numerous versions across cultures. This book is the first English translation of the fourth volume of this sweeping literary work, with stories from after Gesar's coronation to the throne of Ling. This volume focuses on battles won and strategies applied, as the warrior-king Gesar fended off demons and liberated his foes. Though largely a violent account focused on his superhuman prowess in battle, this volume is rich with ethical proverbs that inform Tibetan culture to this day. A significant work of legend, the epic of Gesar is also a vital part of Tibetan Buddhism, as Gesar is said to have been chosen by celestial beings to restore order and destroy anti-Buddhist forces. The epic of Gesar is the cultural touchstone of Tibet, analogous to the Iliad or the Odyssey. While Book One covers Gesar's birth, youth, and rise to power, this volume recounts the martial victories and magical feats that made him a legendary figure to so many.

Hotel heiress Katherine Breckenridge just wants to make a lasting difference in her world by running her late mother's charity foundation. But she fears she lacks the passion and courage to be as successful as her mother was—a fear that's realized when money from the foundation goes missing and Katherine's one shot to recover it is ruined by Rafe Noble. Two-time world champion bull rider Rafe Noble is at the top of his game when tragedy hits. Guilt stricken over the loss of his best friend, Rafe accidentally drives his truck into the lobby of the Breckenridge Hotel during Katherine's fund-raiser. With a broken knee, a ruined reputation, and the threat of several lawsuits, Rafe goes back to his family's ranch—the Silver Buckle—to recover. Desperate to save the foundation, Katherine heads to the Silver Buckle to talk Rafe into helping her raise the needed funds. But a few days under the bright Montana skies give her more than she bargained for, and Kat discovers there's more to both herself and Rafe Noble than she realized.
