Miko Fiori is a powerful and handsome Greek mercenary following in his fathers footsteps. Gifted with a muscular body that is impossible for women to ignore, Miko has certainly had his share of women. Yet lust and desire are all he has given of himself until the day a beautiful, green eyed vixen walked into his life and changed everything. Skye Avalon, daughter of a high-ranking Irish member of the IRA, can arouse passion in a man with just one look. But as of yet, she is as untouched as newly fallen snow. When she is captivated by Miko at a charity ball, her friend, Tess, discloses his secret profession and makes Skye swear not to tell anyone. But Skye is not the only one who was bewitched that day. As they become embroiled in a torrid romance, Miko and Skye must attempt to survive seemingly insurmountable odds as their passionate journey leads them from the beautiful, languid Greek Islands to the turbulent unrest in Ireland where mercenaries clash in a battle with the IRA, a confrontation fueled by mens lust for power and the need to settle an old score. Fiori Legend is a sizzling romance with a twist of wicked betrayal, danger and deceit, as a ruthless rogue mercenary finds unexpected love, but must battle Irelands powerful IRA to survive and keep it.

Solidarity Beyond Borders is a collection on international ethics by a multidisciplinary team of scholars from four continents. The volume explores ethical and political dimensions of transnational solidarity in the emerging multipolar world. Analyzing global challenges of the world plagued by poverty, diseases, injustice, inequality and environmental degradation, the contributors - rooted in diverse cultures and ethical traditions - voice their support for 'solidarity beyond borders'. Bringing to light both universally shared ethical insights as well as the irreducible diversity of ethical perceptions of particular problems helps the reader to appreciate the chances and the challenges that the global community - more interconnected and yet more ideologically fragmented than ever before - faces in the coming decades. Solidarity Beyond Borders exemplifies an innovative approach to the key issues of global ethics which takes into account the processes of economic globalization, leading to an ever deeper interdependence of peoples and states, as well as the increasing cultural and ideological fragmentation which characterize the emerging multipolar world order.

In the Château: A Frances Yates Mystery By: Marjorie G. Jones “Quirky, erudite and witty, In the Chateau follows the dastardly – and sometimes sexy – doings of professional plagiarists in the shadow of a fascinating feminist conference examining women’s spirituality in centuries gone by. Marjorie Jones here offers a stimulating ode to Quebec City and French Canada and provides an atmospheric narrative as rich and delicious as a serving of Québec’s famous poutine.” - Stephen O’Shea, author The Perfect Heresy “London, Mexico City, Philadelphia, and now in Québec City – with In the Chateau we renew our acquaintance with the indomitable Dame Frances Yates and her cadre of fellow amateur detectives. And again we encounter a love of books, historical and feminist religious insights, architectural wonders, mouth-watering food, and last but not least: murder most foul. This book, as are the others in the series, is a delight for armchair travelers with a penchant for the darker side of academia. PS: Graduate students beware of the perils of plagiarism.” - Maria Enrico, BMCC / City University of New York When renowned British historian Dame Frances Yates is invited to deliver a talk regarding the Hermetic Tradition at a conference of women religious of the Americas at the historic Ursuline Convent in Québec, she uncovers a ring of plagiarists thriving in the local institutions of higher learning. Once again, during her visit, Dame Frances savors culinary delights and admires historic sites, illustrating the complex history of Canada.

This book examines the misuse of history in New Atheism and militant anti-religion. It looks at how episodes such as the Witch-hunt, the Inquisition, and the Holocaust are mythologized to present religion as inescapably prone to violence and discrimination, whilst the darker side of atheist history, such as its involvement in Stalinism, is denied. At the same time, another constructed history—that of a perpetual and one-sided conflict between religion and science/rationalism—is commonly used by militant atheists to suggest the innate superiority of the non-religious mind. In a number of detailed case studies, the book traces how these myths have long been overturned by historians, and argues that the New Atheism’s cavalier use of history is indicative of a troubling approach to the humanities in general. Nathan Johnstone engages directly with the God debate at an academic level and contributes to the emerging study of non-religion as a culture and an identity.
