A small-town, holiday romance inspired by A Christmas Carol.Eleanor is working to save her grandmother's fudge shop when she is reunited with Cam, a high-powered consultant with a crush on her since high school.Eleanor Fooge didn't ask to have a name that rhymed with the most famous miser in history, but she did vow to never be like him--a vow that was easy to keep during high school and college and right on through success at running her grandmother's fudge business. But she discovered success was like trying to hold water in her hand--the harder she tried, the more tightfisted she became. When the orders slowed and the customers flocked to the new cupcake shop in town, her hands--and her heart--closed up and iced over. Soon it wasn't just the business and protecting the family name at risk. As the boys in ninth grade had teased her, no one loves a Scrooge.Cam Wilson traded his small ski-town childhood for big-city college and a fast track to the good life. Or so he thought. The only good thing about his new job was the money. He hadn't bargained for the travel, the constant pressure to deliver results, and the shallow relationships that would leave him wanting more. The years he spent helping desperate CEOs save their businesses from bankruptcy taught him something he hadn't expected--he may have left the good life back in Pine Creek.He found himself missing everything he thought he didn't need--fresh air, a town full of people who felt like family, a view of the mountains that never got old. And longing for one more chance to get to know Eleanor--the girl with the funny last name but the sweetest smile he'd ever seen. Going back wasn't the hard part. What he wanted was a reason to stay.When a viral video drives them apart, can a rare copy of A Christmas Carol bring them together? Find out in this heartwarming, second-chance holiday romance.
Twelve year old Eleanor doesn't want to move from her home in the cool New England region of New South Wales, to the hot dry Western Plains and a new home on her mother's family farm. One day, in the old schoolhouse on the farm, she makes an amazing discovery, finding her grandmother's diary, written when she was Eleanor's own age. Eleanor doesn't remember her grandmother Elizabeth, who died when she was three; but as she explores the diary and its secrets, she begins to understand not only her grandmother's life and personality, but also to appreciate the special qualities of the region where she lives. But her grandmother's diary will prove to be much more than just absorbing reading material, when great danger threatens Eleanor and her brothers... Vividly written and grippingly told, this new edition of multi-award-winning author Libby Gleeson's first novel, originally published in 1984, features a new introduction by the authorand illustrations by Beattie Alvarez.
Mary Augusta Ward, n e Arnold, (1851-1920), was a British novelist who wrote under her married name as Mrs. Humphry Ward. She began her career writing articles for magazines while working on a book for children that was published in 1881 under the title Milly and Olly. Her novels contained strong religious subject matter relevant to Victorian values she herself practised. Her popularity spread beyond Great Britain to the United States. According to the New York Times, her book Lady Rose's Daughter was the bestselling novel in the United States in 1903 as was The Marriage of William Ashe in 1905. Her most popular novel by far was the religious "novel with a purpose" Robert Elsmere, which portrayed the religious crisis of a young pastor and his family.

Memorialised as a US heroine and an iconoclastic humanitarian who sought to protect society’s marginalised, Eleanor Roosevelt also, at times, disappointed contemporaries and biographers with some of her stances. Examining a period of her life that has not been extensively explored, this book challenges the previously held universality of Eleanor Roosevelt’s humanitarianism.The Palestinian question is used as a case study to explore the practical application of her commitment to social justice, and the author argues that, at times, Roosevelt’s humanitarianism was illogical, limited and flawed by pragmatism. New insights are provided into Eleanor Roosevelt’s human rights activism – its dichotomies, its inspiration, and the effect it had on US relations with the Middle East. This book will appeal to academics working across a range of disciplines including history, diplomatic history, American studies, Middle Eastern studies, US foreign policy, human rights and women’s studies.

In 1625 Lady Eleanor Davies' life took a dramatic turn when, by her account in 1641, a "Heavenly voice" told her "There is Ninteene yeares and a halfe to the day of Judgement, and you as the meek Virgin". That same year she published her first treatise, A Warning to the Dragon, initiating her controversial career as a writer of prophetic tracts. Between 1641 and 1652 she would produce some 66 of them, using the Bible to gauge the cosmic significance of events, great and small, taking place in her nation and in her personal life. They focus on a complex of personal and political events that Lady Eleanor thought indicated the fast approach of the "last days" foretold by the biblical prophets Daniel and John of Patmos. A complement to Teresa Feroli's facsimile edition of Eleanor Davies' pre-1640 texts (Ashgate, 2000), this pair of volumes reproduces 60 texts from the corpus of 66 printed between 1641 and 1652.

"...A delightful, quick read and a clean romance."Lawrence Debenham has finally escaped his dictatorial parents-even if it's only to the estate they expect him to rehabilitate and grace with a wife. But he has his own plans: inviting his friends to stay and doing as he pleases. He will do whatever it takes to show his parents he is the master of his own fate. Eleanor Renwick has taken care of her younger brother since their mother's death two years ago. Responsible and deliberate, she is unprepared for the accident they meet as they travel to their new home. They are taken in by a handsome, amusing gentleman to his run-down estate where she finds herself relying on him in the care of her energetic young charge. Eleanor discovers herself confronting a growing desire for companionship from a man who is anxious to avoid marriage. Lawrence, abruptly challenged by Eleanor's calm example of duty, feels a fast-increasing regard for her, forcing him to decide just how much he is willing to sacrifice to teach his parents a lesson.
Detention is bad enough without the Apocalypse Eleanor is smart, informed, responsible and well read. She also just woke up to find herself trapped, her school in rubble, and her life dependent on a troupe of nitwits. With no one coming to save her, possibly the last bastion of intelligent life on earth, and monsters lurking in every shadow; if this isn't the end of the world, it sure feels like it.

The mutually energizing and often volatile friendship between Eleanor Roosevelt and Adlai Stevenson - unexplored in depth by scholars until this study - was one of the last century s remarkable political alliances. Both Stevenson and Eleanor Roosevelt shared a view of politics as a moral enterprise, one in which the fulfillment of its "mission" was the betterment of the human condition. This belief was the foundation upon which their legislative initiatives were constructed. Employing letters and diaries as well as contemporary media accounts, this book examines the perspectives, the convictions, the style, and the spirit that both principals brought to the calling of public service.
