La justice hors-normes

Thirty-five years earlier, Lily Abbott and Mitch Colby exchanged wedding vows in a quaint ceremony attended by a small crowd consisting of four Micronauts, a one-eyed pet rock, two special-edition Barbies, and an assortment of stuffed animals. Officiated by Stretch Armstrong, it was the social event of their 8th summer. Lily never forgot the childhood ceremony. Or the fact her best friend and first love had left her behind and relocated to Boston to pursue an Ivy-League education. Now a divorcee, with college-bound twin daughters, Lily's moved on and put the foolishness of first crushes and the childish dream of true love behind her. At eighteen, Mitch had never wanted the expensive education his father mapped out for him. He'd have been perfectly happy to stay in Summerville, marry the love of his life, and settle down. However, when push came to shove, he'd not wanted to upset his ailing mother, and had left everything...and everyone...that he'd wanted behind. The 25th reunion of the graduating class of Summerville High has brought Lily and Mitch back together at The Sands, a seaside resort on Last Chance Beach. Will one weekend together be enough? Or, is there a possibility for more?

I Do...Again - Island Magic, #1

Welcome to Last Light Point, a small town located along the New England coastline somewhere north of Boston (we think). It's weathered many a nor'easter, as well as an assortment of truly evil people. Rumor has it you'll find more than alcoholic spirits at the popular tavern, The Crowe's Nest. Are you ready for an adventure? Sit back and let us tell you some ghost stories. Just don't look at the gibbet!~ ~ ~The Pirate's Promise (Autumn 1728) by Lisa A. OlechThe Crowe's Nest Tavern was located in a very fortuitous place. If you were condemned to hang in Execution Square, they were your last stop!Everly Crowe along with her father and two sisters ran The Crowe's Nest Tavern that was rumored to be slightly haunted. John Beckett was a pirate, or not. Forced upon the account, he'd lost his belief in a lot of things before he caught the eye of a bonny serving lass who was fierce enough to go toe to boot with his captor and captain, Bartholomew Jacques. Jacques held a note on the tavern and tormented Everly and her family as he terrorized all the small towns up and down the coast. But even his threats and deceit couldn't keep Everly and John from promising themselves to each other, 'till death they do part.~ ~ ~Smoke and Mirrors (Autumn 1867) by Kathryn HillsSometimes when you knock on heaven's door.

Ghosts of New England: Last Light Point - Ghosts of New England, #2

Marshal Zack McAlister has made it his mission to protect the good citizens of Greenville, MS. In particular, one very opinionated and independent lady doctor. The only hinderance to his professional obligations are the dozen or so single women vying for his attention. Suzanne Martindale, M. D., has quickly become a fixture in Greenville since taking over for her semi-retired predecessor. And, like Marshal McAlister, she's been inundated with unwanted suitors. When Zack proposes a fake engagement, Suzanne is reluctant at first and claims in order for anyone to believe they're actually courting and in love, there has to be chemistry between them. Zack sets out to prove they can easily fool the people of Greenville into believing their ruse. Will his smooth Cajun charm and steamy-hot kisses do the trick? Or, are they destined to be victims of their own charade? When outside forces threaten the entire McAlister clan, can Zack keep his family, and his faux fiancé, safe? And, will a life-threatening accident show them anything, even love, is possible if you have trust? ~ ~ ~ The McAlister family welcomes you back to Mississippi with a third adventure, and maybe a sneak peek at yet another devastating seductive McAlister man!

Hearts, Homes & Holidays - Romantique Treasury

A quelles conditions la philosophie politique et la sociologie permettent-elles d'ouvrir aujourd'hui de nouveaux espaces de liberté ? Comment, dans un monde globalisé, rendre aux individus leur autonomie et garantir davantage de justice sociale ? Comment réarticuler critique de la domination et philosophie de l'émancipation pour leur redonner une efficacité ? Telles étaient les questions posées dans le cadre du festival «Mode d'emploi», organisé par la Villa Gillet en novembre 2012, lors du débat de Luc Boltanski et Nancy Fraser, animé par Philippe Corcuff. Le livre conçu aujourd'hui à partir de ce débat propose une ouverture par Philippe Corcuff, un dialogue réagencé et révisé où alternent les voix de Luc Boltanski et de Nancy Fraser, enfin un post-scriptum de la main de chacun des deux intervenants.

Domination et émancipation pour un renouveau de la critique sociale

Ce manifeste rédigé par Nancy Fraser, Cinzia Arruzza et Tithi Bhattacharya, toutes trois organisatrices de l' International Women's Strike, propose un féminisme véritablement inclusif, à la fois anticapitaliste, antiraciste, écologiste, internationaliste, anti-hétérosexiste : un féminisme qui lutte pour les 99 % et non en faveur d'une petite élite mondialisée.
Logements inabordables, salaires de misère, systèmes de santé inexistants ou dysfonctionnels, catastrophe climatique, rejet des migrantes, violences policières... on entend peu les féministes s'exprimer sur ces questions. Pourtant, elles ont un impact majeur sur la vie de l'immense majorité des femmes à travers le monde.
Les grèves des femmes qui se multiplient aujourd'hui en Argentine, en Pologne, aux États-Unis ou ailleurs s'emparent de ces problématiques et témoignent du fait que les revendications féministes ne sont pas isolées de celles d'autres mouvements. Et c'est tout l'enjeu de ce manifeste, inspiré par ces nouveaux mouvements féministes : face à un système néolibéral qui concentre toutes les aliénations, injustices et inégalités et instrumentalise certaines luttes sociales pour servir ses velléités impérialistes et engranger le plus de profits possible, le féminisme doit repenser son agenda théorique comme militant.
Trois des organisatrices de la Grève internationale des femmes s'engagent ainsi avec ce manifeste pour un féminisme véritablement inclusif, capable de faire converger l'anticapitalisme, l'antiracisme, l'écologie politique, l'internationalisme et l'anti-hétérosexisme : un féminisme pour les 99 %.

Féminisme pour les 99 % - Un manifeste

After a prolonged and messy divorce, 42 year old Cate Matthews uses her financial settlement to purchase a condo in a regentrified warehouse. The only problem with her new home is the plumbing. It doesn't take her long to realize she needs an expert to fix the rusty pipes-both the building's and her own. Mitch Taylor, 27 year old former Army Ranger and now full time student, is working hard toward earning his engineering degree while balancing his education with part time work doing household repairs. When Mitch shows up in Cate's lecture hall, she's immediately impressed with his knowledge of U. S. history, a subject to which she's devoted her academic career. However, as impressed as she is with his historical acumen, when he lands on her doorstep with an impressively large bag of tools in hand, history is the last thing on her mind. Perhaps this much younger and infinitely sexy man is just what she needs to get her dormant sex life back on track. Given the huge difference in their ages, Cate assumes the relationship will fizzle out after a few-albeit perfect-trips around the bedroom. Much to her surprise and delight, Mitch seems to be in it for the long haul. Their 15 year age difference is the least of her worries when she realizes how quickly she's been seduced by the handyman. Warning: Contains language and lovescenes some readers may find HOT!
