What good comes from a war? As far as Robie was concerned the answer was – profit. It is Fall 1942 and the war rages on in Europe and on the North Atlantic. In the early years he had to deal with local criminals trying to profit from the sudden influx of men and materials destine for overseas and German agents. The issue of spies has fallen away as have most of the local players involved in thefts of war goods and materials. However, that is about to change. It begins with a rash of hijackings outside the city. Robie is brought in to help his friend Inspector Phil Maloney, a RCMP officer on detached service to Naval Intelligence. Together they uncover a major French crime organization is working with a Montreal gang who are behind the thefts. The deeper they dig the more they begin to realize this could be their most perilous case yet.

Shakespeare. Classic literature. What image does your mind conjure up in response to those daunting words? Quaking fear? Hives? Crushing boredom? Do you harken back to musty, cobweb-adorned memories of high school AP English? Are you recalling your panic days of college, trying to find a way to finish that essential, impossible paper, thinking, “This professor really HAS TO give me an extension”? A friend recently told me that he never read classic literature, even in the times when he was required to read classic literature. The venerable William F. Buckley defined classic literature as something that everyone wished to have read, but that no one wanted to read. Oh my! My response to classic literature is different. I find that reading classics is enjoyable, and I want folks to share my enjoyment of Shakespeare. How? The summaries and plays within this book comprise fifteen of the best works of the greatest author - Shakespeare. I have rewritten and constructed them, however, in such a way that they might be seen as understandable, not overly time-consuming, mostly contemporary, and yes, dare I say it – fun. Classic literature can be fun. Shakespeare? Fun? Contemplate THAT for a moment, will you?

“Fast paced, laugh out loud fun” from the New York Times bestselling author of How Hard Can It Be? and Size Matters (RT Book Reviews). When you get time off for bad behavior, romance is the last thing on your mind—but good old-fashioned lust is a whole different story . . . Life undercover isn’t exactly one big party—not when you’re a DEA agent—but it sure beats a desk job. Except when you screw up big and someone has to go in and clean up after you. In that case, even paper-pushing sounds better than babysitting an erotic romance writer with as many enemies as there are euphemisms for “throbbing manhood.” I’ve been taking down drug dealers for so long, playing bodyguard to a woman named Shoshanna Lehump sounds like nothing more than a giant pain in my ass. And being partnered with the gorgeous egotistical jerk I never should have slept with in the first place just makes a bad situation even harder—especially when he pursues me as diligently as we’re supposed to be chasing the bad guys . . . What’s a girl have to do to get a happy ending anyway? Praise for the Handcuffs and Happily Ever Afters series “Outrageous, profane, hilarious, sexy and all kinds of wacky!”—Michelle Rowen, national bestselling author “A zany over-the-top rompfest.”—Lexi George, author of Demon Hunting with a Sexy Ex “Robyn Peterman has this fantastically kooky/dirty/off the wall sense of humor that totally turns my crank.”—The Book Vixen
