Taming the Legend by Kat Latham Pdf

He's a legendary rugby player who sacrificed everything for his game. Eighteen years ago, Ash Trenton chose his career over love and became one of the world's greatest rugby players. Now he's retiring at the top of his game and has no clue what to do with his life. But when his first and only love returns, begging for his help, is he ready to tackle the hardest thing he’ll ever do? When Camila Morales inherited her dad's camp in Southern California, she also inherited a mountain of debt. Winning a big cash prize in a rugby tournament is her only hope to save the camp. But that means asking for help from the man who let her down spectacularly when he left her heartbroken eighteen years ago. Relying on Ash is the last thing she wants to do. And reigniting old flames is not going to happen. Definitely not. Ash never dreamed he’d be coaching troubled teens. And falling for Camila all over again was definitely not in his plans. When he is offered his dream job and given a second chance at first love, will he once again choose his career, or the one woman who tamed the heart of a legend? “Latham has a knack for creating characters who will linger on your brain long after her charming stories end, and our sizzling-hot hero, Ash, will probably stay forever...

Taming Her Highland Legend by Maeve Greyson Pdf

"Take thirty days off or you're fired." To 21st century Dr. Evie Wortham, confirmed Londoner and obsessively driven surgeon; her hospital's ultimatum of thirty days leave in the calming wilderness of the Scottish Highlands so she can get a handle on her anger issues means one thing: unbearable boredom. But she agrees out of pity for her best friend who Human Resources nominated to pass out the punishment. That and the fact she did massively overstep her bounds this time-even by her standards. So, she heads to her friend's cottage on the outskirts of Inverness for a month of hiking, biking, and becoming one with nature. But a climb behind a waterfall to rescue a kitten with an odd fondness for water permanently strikes the word boredom from her vocabulary. Instead of finding the cat, she discovers a man with a bloody gash in his head floating face down in the pool below.When Chieftain Quinn MacTaggart opens his eyes to the lovely, but strangely dressed Englishwoman, he's certain the enemy has captured him. He'd put nothing past Edward I's arrogance and determination to break Scotland, especially after the sacking of Berwick. But when the sharp-tongued lass turns out to be an extraordinary healer and confesses England has banished her, honor demands he not only offer her the protection of his clan, but the added safety of taking his name. After all, she did save his life. And not only is she fearless, canny, and filled with fire, but bonny as a prize filly. What better choice for a wife? The arrangement could serve them both.Finding herself trapped in 13th century Scotland, Evie has no choice but to accept Quinn's offer of protection. While she had always thought to marry for love, marrying to stay alive seems a good enough reason, too. What she didn't count on was falling in love. Or how hard it would be to hide the truth of her past from Quinn. And then there's the assassin intent on killing her new husband. Who knew there could be so many obstacles to wedded bliss?

ONE HUNDRED AND ONE THINGS MALAY by GHULAM-SARWAR YOUSOF Pdf

This book, dedicated by its author to “all who understand or do not understand the Malays as well as to those who wish to know them better”, provides a rare and insightful entry into those elements that best define and represent the Malaysian Malay community. Fully aware of the fact that the Malays, as a relatively small race in global terms, has been influenced in terms of their traditional beliefs as well as cultural practices by elements from India, Indonesia as well as the World of Islam, the author yet manages to successfully indicate what makes the Malays unique when it comes to their identity. In essence, he catches the spirit or soul of the Malays. The features selected for this purpose have been defined or described in a relatively uncomplicated manner and in simple terms so that the work is accessible to non-expert readers both at home and abroad. It makes an interesting and almost casual entry into what may be defined as Malay. The photographs and illustrations provided add value to the work, which in many ways is a unique piece of writing.

He’s fighting a debilitating fear of flying that may ground his career before he can get it off the ground. Maybe he can get some help with that from his best friend, who happens to know a thing or two about flying. Airline pilot Libby Hart has lots of thoughts about Matt’s bum, every one of them naughty. But she’s looking for man to start a family with, one who’ll keep the home fires burning for her, without sacrificing her high-flying career.

The Legend and Cult of Upagupta by John S. Strong Pdf

The Buddhist monk Upagupta, who preached and taught meditative practices in Northwest India over two thousand years ago, is venerated today by the laity in parts of Burma, Thailand, and Laos as a protective figure endowed with magical powers. In this monumental work John Strong offers a systematic presentation of the Indian and Southeast Asian legends and rituals surrounding this popular saint. Once considered by Buddhist authorities as only marginally important, Upagupta emerges here as a central, ubiquitous figure within the Buddhist world. The author demonstrates the remarkable continuity among traditions focused on Upagupta in ancient Sarvastivadin Sanskrit materials, key Pali texts, medieval Thai and Burmese texts, and contemporary oral traditions and religious rituals in Southeast Asia. In so doing he reflects the orientation of popular Sanskrit Hinayana Buddhism, which allows for new perspectives on such classic questions as the nature of enlightenment, the role of asceticism, the problem of evil, the worship of the Buddha image, the veneration of saints, master-disciple relationships, the treatment of heterodoxy, and the relation of myth and ritual. Originally published in 1992. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Middle-Earth: Journeys in Myth and Legend by Donato Giancola Pdf

Nearly 200 stunningly realistic paintings and drawings bring the greatest fantasy epic of all time to life. Classical realism unites with contemporary storytelling as artist Donato Giancola explores the mythic grandeur and the iconic characters of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings saga. Donato has made it his life's work to translate Tolkien's words into compelling visuals, with gorgeous oil paintings and drawings reminiscent of Rembrandt and Caravaggio. His interpretations of Middle-earth span his entire career, from private commissions to the 2001 edition of the graphic novel adaptation of The Hobbit, all collected in this massive compendium--a must-have for collectors of Tolkien and fantasy "What struck me about J.R.R. Tolkien's work was how he filled Middle-earth with a wealth of history," says Author Donato Giancola. "From the simple beginnings of Bilbo and the dwarves in The Hobbit, to the personal trials of Frodo and the Fellowship in The Lord of the Rings, to the epic tragedies in The Silmarillion, these tales are woven together by a grand fabric of unifying mythologies, bringing depth to the cultures and characters within." "Amazing work from an astounding talent." - George R.R. Martin
