He stands out like a sore thumb amongst the usual club-goers and Tenny is instantly drawn to his gentle nature.However, David doesn’t gel well with Tenny’s overtly brash best friends, all of whom believe there’s something strange about him. Tenny understands David’s awkwardness, seeing something of his former self in him, and he quickly grows fond of his new friend.In the meantime, Tenny does his best to deal with being stalked by an unknown stranger, wanting so hard to believe David is innocent.Tenny fails to see how someone so quiet and fragile could ever do such horrible things, and is unable to stop from falling for him. Still, the unanswered questions, David’s evasiveness surrounding his past, and co-incidental circumstances leave Tenny no choice but to confront the truth.

I Figli Ritrovati - Le Cronache di Maca Libro II
by Mari Collier Katia PaganiToma il Justine, fissò terrorizzato e incredulo il pannello di controllo e l'acqua che scorreva sotto di lui. Cos'era successo negli ultimi centoventiquattro anni? Era sul terzo pianeta lontano da una stella che la civiltà dominante chiamava Terra e Sole. Al momento del suo atterraggio era l'anno del Signore 1712, secondo il loro rozzo calcolo. Doveva assolutamente trovare un luogo meno popolato per nascondere la sua navicella, che conteneva le informazioni sul pianeta e i suoi abitanti, che aveva raccolto, informazioni codificate sui cristalli, in modo da poterle studiare in seguito e da poterne trarre indicazioni preziose. Toma conosceva un posto in quel continente che non aveva mostrato segni di attività sismica. Se fosse ritornato nei continenti più civilizzati, la maggiore densità di popolazione avrebbe aumentato il rischio di essere scoperto, molto prima che una nave spaziale del suo pianeta, si fosse messa alla sua ricerca.

Robbers' Roost: A Western Story (Sagebrush Western Ser.)
by Zane GreyA classic story of imperiled love on the western frontiers of nineteenth-century America. "He was a young man in years, but he had the hard face and eagle eye of one matured in experience of that wild country. He bestrode a superb bay horse, dusty and travel-worn and a little lame. The rider was no light burden, judging from his height and wide shoulders; moreover, the saddle carried a canteen, a rifle, and a pack. From time to time he looked back over his shoulder at the magnificent long cliff wall, which resembled a row of colossal books with leaves partly open. It was the steady, watchful gaze of a man who had left events behind him. ” So begins Jim Wales’s story in Robbers’ Roost. While a battle rages between two outlaw gangs in a remote Utah canyon, Jim struggles to rescue Helen Herrick, who has been captured and held for ransom. Robbers’ Roost tells the story of their personal struggle to escape the clutches of the murderous outlaws while simultaneously safeguarding their passion, one that is not likely to survive the beautiful, yet deadly, terrain and people of the old American West.
