EVERY BRIDE WANTS A KILLER WEDDING Weddingville, Washington, is in the throes of its annual bridal fair. For Daryl Anne Blessing, that means soothing the high-strung brides-to-be who have taken her family's dress shop by storm. Hunky photographer Seth Quinlan is around to provide eye candy and witty repartee-but it's no laughing matter when a diamond ring set disappears from the Ring Bearer Jewelers, followed by a designer gown from Blessing's Bridal Shop. Daryl Anne hopes the thefts are just the work of a prankster poking fun at the wedding fever that's overtaken the town. But Weddingville's shopkeepers can't afford for the bridal fair to lose its luster. Then business takes a dark turn when a bride is found dead in Flower Girl Shop's fridge. Now, with Weddingville's romantic reputation on the line, Daryl Anne and Seth turn up the heat on their own simmering attraction-and a killer determined to make bridezillas a dying breed . . .

NORTHERN LIGHTS BRIDES IT'S A BIRD! IT'S A PLANE! Only J.D. "Blue" Hazzard would crash his plane into a lake just to get Maggie Adams's attention.

J.D. couldn't believe his eyes. Maggie was even better-looking than she'd been in high school—and just as skittish. Back then she'd never given him a second thought, but now he was going to break through her defenses even if he had to strip them from her, layer by frilly layer….

“[Carlyle’s] final Fraternitas romance paints Victorian society with sensual undertones . . . suspense and romance entwine to create an engaging read.” —Publishers Weekly Beneath the elegant façade of Victorian high society, the rules of danger and desire are the only rules that apply for the mysterious men of the St. James Society. New York Times–bestseller Liz Carlyle carries readers deep into this realm of intrigue and passion once more in her breathtaking historical romance sizzler, The Bride Wore Pearls. The third book in her sexy, compelling, action-packed series, The Bride Wore Pearls is a scorching story of a very proper lady who flees her home in a far corner of the British Empire, entrusting her safety and her heart to a dangerous outlaw in Victorian London. Amanda Quick and Gaelen Foley fans will most certainly be enthralled. Praise for the Fraternitas Aureae Crucis series “Intriguing . . . engaging . . . an illicit delight.” —Stephanie Laurens, #1 New York Times–bestselling author “Liz Carlyle weaves passion and intrigue with a master’s touch.” —Karen Robards, New York Times–bestselling author

Drawing on recent advances in historical knowledge, the author describes contemporary attitudes toward issues such as rebellion, conscience, regicide, incest, retribution, and mourning. His investigation reveals a number of convincing new reasons for viewing Hamlet not as an irresolute young man but as a vigorous and determined figure in confrontation with the moral dilemmas of his age. By understanding the play in its original terms, we find that it takes on new depth and power for our own time. Originally published in 1984. 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.
