Описание: Emily Lime and her equally palindromic dog, Otto, live in Williamsburg, Brooklyn (zip code 11211), in a warm community of friends and fellow artists. Her life becomes more complicated when she falls in love with Marcus, a dog-walker and fellow Scrabble nut, whose father is Emily's shady ex-husband who wants the lovable Emily dead. A mystery unravels, a valuable lost cache of paintings is found, and Emily's life changes in ways she could not have anticipated.

Описание: In December 1572 the Mughal emperor Akbar arrived in the port city of Khambayat. Having been raised in distant Kabul, Akbar, in his thirty years, had never been to the ocean. Presumably anxious with the news about the Mughal military campaign in Gujarat, several Portuguese merchants in Khambayat rushed to Akbar's presence.

This encounter marked the beginning of a long, complex, and unequal relationship between a continental Muslim empire that was expanding into southIndia, often looking back to Central Asia, and a European Christian maritime empire whose rulers considered themselves 'kings of the sea'. By the middle of the seventeenth century, these two empires faced each other across thousands of kilometres from Sind to Bijapur, with a supplementary eastern arm in faraway Bengal. Focusing on borderland management, imperial projects, and cross-cultural circulation, this volume delves into the ways in which, between c.

1570 and c. 1640, the Portuguese understood and dealt with their undesirably close neighbours-the Mughals.

Описание: A reunion, a stalker, and a vengeful man-what's a woman to do? If that woman is Holly Morris, she relies on faith, friends, and a dog named Clarence. Holly tries to live her life as she feels God wants her to. It is full-with church, friends, and her job as a high school guidance counselor. But then her ten-year class reunion stirs up painful memories of the invisible girl she used to be. When a stalker and the angry boyfriend of her student's parent both come after her, she wonders if a normal life will ever be possible. Compounding everything is her relationship with Luke Walker. The friend she's depended on for most of her life has fallen in love with her. Does she feel the same, or is she confusing gratitude and safety for love? Luke Walker has trusted God and worked hard to make his farm successful. The only thing missing is a wife, and he wants Holly to fill that position. He'll be there for her at their reunion just like he was when they were teenagers. And when his farm is vandalized and he's warned to stay away from Holly or pay the price, he digs his heels in deeper. He even lets his beloved Heinz 57 dog spend nights guarding her. Luke will do everything in his power to keep the woman he loves safe and win her heart.
