Finnegan O'Shea My uncle had never deserved to be the boss of the Sons of Munster, and for the longest time I thought that pompous jackass was my worst nightmare. Then Gio Avellino sent a crew to Philly to take down the syndicate I'd just become the unofficial boss of. He'd kidnapped my uncle, put the love of my life in harm's way, and...he'd murdered my mother. So yeah, my first year as a married man was off to a rousing start-we were on the run, severely outnumbered, and I still hadn't told my wife the truth about her own mother and her connection to the Avellino family. Luck of the Irish? Uh-huh. I was gonna need a lot of that. Emilia O'Shea Was there such a thing as getting used to being married to a mobster? Finnegan lied and stole for a living, and trust didn't come easy. If only the bastard hadn't stolen my damn heart. After spending the summer in hiding, I was ready to shoulder my role as the new matriarch of the family. Even though my husband's mother's shoes were impossible to fill, I would do my best and take on the responsibility with my own little twist. I couldn't be the mother to everyone, but I could be a Daughter of Munster. Because though I struggled with some aspects of Finnegan's lifestyle, this was personal. This was war.

-Finnegan O'Shea The Sons of Munster have been living this life for generations. We have our own protocol, our own traditions, dating back to when two families merged and created our syndicate in Ireland. Now, we have our strongholds in Philly and Chicago, and the wrong man holds the highest position. The day my uncle decided to betray us, he signed his own death warrant, and after a five-year hitch in the can, I'm ready to take everything from him. In order to ensure the demise of his management, I have to get close to him. I need to earn his trust and that of his closest associates. I'll be the top earner he wants me to be. I'll be the very image of a conventional family man. For that to happen, this Irish bastard has to find himself a wife. Someone sweet and compliant who will stand by my side and make me look like I have too much to lose to screw over the head of the family. -Emilia Porter When it rains, it pours, so I guess it's been pouring for eighteen years now. Being from an old mining town that's full of drunk cautionary tales, I spend my days juggling-and failing-school, work, and paying the bills so my dad can drink himself into a stupor. Then this freaking guy rolls into town in his expensive sports car and thinks I should marry him. This isn't the fifties, and there isn't a snowball's chance in hell I'll marry a well-known mobster. No matter how much money he promises me. No matter how intensely the chemistry sizzles between us. He asks for three years of marriage. Then I'd be set for life, independent, and free to start fresh on my own. Free to walk away. Who the hell does he think he is?
A paleontologist shows what life was like on our planet long before the early humans emerged through words and illustrations. Paleontologist Dr. Mark P. Witton draws on the latest twenty-first century discoveries to re-create the appearances and lifestyles of extinct, fascinating species, the environments they inhabited, and the challenges they faced living on an ever-changing planet. A worthy successor to Charles Knight’s beloved 1946 classic, Life through the Ages II takes us on an unforgettable journey through the evolution of life on Earth. Dozens of gorgeous color illustrations and meticulously researched, accompanying commentary showcase the succession of lost worlds, defining events, and ancient creatures that have appeared since the earth was formed, creating an indispensable guide to explore what came before us. “When it comes to modern palaeoartists, Mark Witton has become a leading light. Life Through the Ages II is a beautiful palaeoart portfolio that pushes the envelope where realistic compositions and reconstructions are concerned.” —The Inquisitive Biologist

Ten-year-old Ada has never left her one-room apartment. Her mother is too humiliated by Ada’s twisted foot to let her outside. So when her little brother Jamie is shipped out of London to escape the war, Ada doesn’t waste a minute—she sneaks out to join him. So begins a new adventure for Ada, and for Susan Smith, the woman who is forced to take the two kids in. As Ada teaches herself to ride a pony, learns to read, and watches for German spies, she begins to trust Susan—and Susan begins to love Ada and Jamie.
