After losing control of his vessel, the twenty-eight-year-old noblesse is rescued by a fisherman's daughter. Helena, desperate to escape her own version of entrapment of dreary familial expectation, tries to nurse Pierre back to health and their opposing status - and political views - collide.

Ryan's been asking Aaron and Paige to join him on his charter-boat vacation for years. They're finally on the boat, having a great time when they hit a snag: engine trouble. The ship's captain, Maceo, seems competent but can't fix the problem. The radio's working but no one's calling back. Paige spots an island. Funny it's not on any of the charts. Only thing to do is sit it out and wait for help to arrive. No problem. They were here to party anyways. Plenty of booze left. Fish to eat and a gorgeous, desolate beach with a gentle surf. But with nothing to do Aaron's imagination starts to run a little wild. Is he imagining it or is Paige strutting her stuff more than she normally does? Parading around in a skimpy bikini daring the other guys to stare at her? Why would she do that? She's married to him, after all. When Maceo drops an unexpected line about his girl back home Aaron's curiosity is ignited. What would it be like to watch his wife with another man?

Discover one of the great collections of medieval literature with this historic work, which features more than 180 tales of Greeks, Romans, Britons, biblical figures, and others. Drawn from European and Asian sources, the stories abound in fascinating figures from all walks of life, including Pope Gregory, Noah, Socrates, and a host of other characters, from emperors to pirates. Chaucer, Boccaccio, and Shakespeare are among the writers influenced by these fables, and readers may recognize scenes reminiscent of The Merchant of Venice, King Lear, "The Lawyer's Tale" from Canterbury Tales, and other works. The origins of Gesta Romanorum are obscure; it is thought to have been compiled in the late thirteenth century, and the author's identity is uncertain. As the name suggests, the stories were written in Latin. Gesta, meaning deeds, later came to signify jest because of these lighthearted tales and their enduring power to amuse and inspire.
