All is Bright

A Shannon Stacey Holiday Box Set

By: Shannon Stacey

New York Times bestselling author Shannon Stacey celebrates the season in these three timeless holiday novellas Her Holiday Man Christina Forrester is left raising her young son without any of the comforts of their old life. She’s learning to do it all on her own. Well, almost on her own—she’d be lost without Gail, the kind widow across the street. And when Gail’s son Will comes home, the beautiful and determined single mother awakens something in him he thought was buried forever. As Will and Christina are forced to spend more time together, feelings that are more than neighborly grow between them. And with Christmas coming and a child filling both houses with holiday cheer, it becomes nearly impossible not to embrace the joy—and the love—in their lives. Holiday with a Twist Leigh Holloway’s best friend broke Croy Dawson’s heart back in high school, and Croy knows it was Leigh’s fault. They’ve never liked each other, but Croy isn’t cruel: he’d never turn away a pretty woman in need of some family-Christmas fortification. He doesn’t expect her to drink just enough candy-cane martinis to tell him her secrets—and he definitely doesn’t expect to get caught up in her holiday madness. Despite the surprising love and laughter, Croy and Leigh can’t escape the truth: he can’t walk away from his family obligations and she has a life and career to reboot. But anything is possible if your holiday comes with a twist… Hold Her Again Ava Wright isn’t happy to see her high school sweetheart rolling into their hometown a few weeks before Christmas. There’s no way she’ll be able to avoid him. No one can: he’s become a country-music superstar since going solo and leaving Ava behind. Jace Morrow grew up believing “money can’t buy happiness” was something people said to make themselves feel better. But now he knows it’s the truth: no matter how many number-one hits he has, he’ll never recapture the magic of singing with Ava. Missing her—loving her—and living with making the wrong choice in life were what made him who he is. As they fall in love all over again, they’re both faced with choices for their future…and this time Jace intends to make the right one.

Holiday with a Twist

By: Shannon Stacey

Reunited ex-friends become lovers in this novella about a woman’s holiday homecoming from a New York Times–bestselling author. After a messy breakup, Leigh Holloway is ready to start her life over. Until her parents put the family home on the market and call her back for one final, memory-making Christmas. The last thing she wants to do is deprive her mom of the perfect holiday, so she’ll lie her way through the visit and worry about her future in the New Year. Too bad the only bar in town is owned by a guy she seriously wronged in high school. Leigh’s best friend broke Croy Dawson’s heart, and Croy knows it was Leigh’s fault. They’ve never liked each other, but Croy isn’t cruel: he’d never turn away a pretty woman in need of some family-Christmas fortification. He doesn’t expect her to drink just enough candy-cane martinis to tell him her secrets—and he definitely doesn’t expect to get caught up in her holiday madness. Despite the surprising love and laughter, Croy and Leigh can’t escape the truth: he can’t walk away from his family obligations and she has a life and career to reboot. But anything is possible if your holiday comes with a twist . . . “Stacey writes a holiday novella that will have readers wishing that it didn’t have to end! . . . Holiday with a Twist is another wonderful read by the gifted Stacey.” —RT Book Reviews

A Quiet Company of Dangerous Men

The Forgotten British Special Operations Soldiers of World War II

By: Shannon Monaghan

The untold story of four special operations officers who fought together behind enemy lines across multiple theaters of World War II, and then continued to serve, officially and unofficially, for decades after in the hottest parts of the Cold War There have always been special warriors; Achilles and his Myrmidons are the obvious classical examples. What we now think of as “special operations,” however, were born in World War II, and one of the earliest and most exciting units formed was Britain's SOE. In the early years of the war, when Britain stood alone against the Nazis, Winston Churchill put them on a mission to “set Europe ablaze”: to foment local revolt, to gather intelligence, to blow up bridges, and to do anything that could help to disrupt the Axis cause. A Quiet Company of Dangerous Men follows four SOE officers who distinguished themselves in this fight: the Spanish Civil War veteran Peter Kemp, the demolitions expert David Smiley, the born guerrilla leader Billy McLean, and the political natural Julian Amery. With new and extensive research, including unprecedented access to private family papers that reveal the men's unbreakable bonds and vibrant personalities, Shannon Monaghan has uncovered a story of war in the twentieth century that, due to the secretive nature of the SOE’s work, has remained largely unknown. A Quiet Company of Dangerous Men is a thrilling and inspiring story of four remarkable men who, through sheer determination and daring, as well as unwavering friendship and loyalty, fought for a better world.

Deep Mapping the Media City

Deep Mapping the Media City

By: Shannon Mattern

Going beyond current scholarship on the “media city” and the “smart city,” Shannon Mattern argues that our global cities have been mediated and intelligent for millennia. Deep Mapping the Media City advocates for urban media archaeology, a multisensory approach to investigating the material history of networked cities. Mattern explores the material assemblages and infrastructures that have shaped the media city by taking archaeology literally—using techniques like excavation and mapping to discover the modern city’s roots in time. Forerunners: Ideas First is a thought-in-process series of breakthrough digital publications. Written between fresh ideas and finished books, Forerunners draws on scholarly work initiated in notable blogs, social media, conference plenaries, journal articles, and the synergy of academic exchange. This is gray literature publishing: where intense thinking, change, and speculation take place in scholarship.

The Kennedys

Portrait of a Family

By: Richard Avedon,Shannon Thomas Perich

In the early 1960s, Richard Avedon was commissioned by Harper's Bazaar to create Observations, a column that consisted of a series of nine photographic essays. The subject of the first essay was John F. Kennedy and his young family, who sat for formal black-and-white portraits just three weeks prior to Kennedy's presidential inauguration. Six images appeared in the magazine's February 1961 issue. That same day, Avedon created more informal color portraits of Kennedy and his family at the Kennedy compound in Palm Beach. One of these images ran as the cover of LOOK magazine's February 28 issue, with photographs by Avedon inside. Just before the magazine hit the newsstands and was delivered to over 6.5 million people, a set of photographs, comprised mostly of the LOOK images, was released by the White House and appeared in newspapers across the country. During his lifetime, Richard Avedon donated more than two hundred images to the Smithsonian Institution, including all of the photographs of the Kennedy family sitting for Harper's Bazaar. Smithsonian curator Shannon Thomas Perich has culled more than seventy-five images from that donation for The Kennedys: Portrait of a Family, making these stunning photographs available for view for the first time. Perich's introductory essay—accompanied by a wealth of archival photographs of both Avedon and the Kennedy family—provides historical background on the two sittings within a political and cultural context and critically examines the work of one of the finest photographers of the twentieth century. A foreword by Robert Dallek, distinguished historian and author of the bet-selling An Unfinished Life: John F. Kennedy, 1917-1963, provides authoritative and compelling insight to one of the most fascinating presidents in American history.

The College Stalker

By: Shannon Reland

Braelynn and Jennifer graduated high school. Both of them got accepted to the same college in New York. It was called the Academy of Arts. Braelynn wanted to be a fashion designer, and Jennifer would like to become a professional photographer. Braelynn came from a large family while Jennifer was an only child and lived with her mother until she passed away from cancer during their senior year of high school. They were related through their mothers. They were cousins and very close like sisters. Jennifer's mother passed away a few weeks before graduation. No one knew what happened to Jennifer's father. Braelynn's family took in Jennifer when her mother died. She wanted to sell everything except the important things that she cared about. Jennifer didn't want any reminders of what happened to her growing up. Braelynn's parents divorced when she was fifteen. Her father was cheating on her mother, and he got caught by her oldest brother. Braelynn and Jennifer drove down to college and got settled into the dorm room and their classes. They passed each other from time to time, but that was it during the day. They did have different classes after all. They were studying hard, going to a few parties, meeting new people, and seeing some familiar faces from their classes. They thought about pledging to some sororities, but later, they saw that they were not their cup of tea. They made a lot of friends, which was always good. That was how Jennifer met her girlfriend Leigh-Ann. They went home for the holidays and summer breaks as well. During their junior year in college, they found out that they were related to one of their friends named Olivia. Her mother got Olivia's mother's phone number so they could talk and meet for the first time. They planned for everyone to meet over Thanksgiving break and help them get to Maine from Ohio. John stalked her for a while because he wanted to date her, and she nicely refused him. She let him know that she was in college to study her profession, and she was not interested in starting any kind of relationships for the time being. He didn't take no for an answer and started following them around campus. She asked him politely to leave them alone, and he still followed them. It got so bad that they had to change their schedule on the weekends to run errands. They even changed where they would go out to eat and get their breakfast if that was what they wanted to do. She was not letting him scare her off though. She was still living her life. They went to the same places, just different times. He finally took the hint and left them alone for the time being. He saw them at a few parties and tried to dance with her. Their guy friends put a barrier around them girls, which she was very thankful for. During their last year of college, he asked her out. She said as friends, and that was the start. They went out together with other couples because she didn't know John and didn't want to be alone with him. After a while, they started dating. They went to a few parties together with her friends. Jennifer and Leigh-Ann went too. She lost her virginity to him, and later in their senior year, she became pregnant by him. He didn't use protection, and she was inexperienced, so she had no clue what to do. She had the talk with her mother but really didn't know about that sort of thing. John told her that he couldn't be the father because he had a childhood accident. She told him that she never cheated on him, and the baby was his. He left her standing in the middle of campus, crying in Jennifer's arms. She let her family know during Thanksgiving break. Her brothers wanted to kick his butt because as a young man, he should have taken precautions. Her family let her know that they were behind her no matter what she decided! Did John try to get back with her? What would happen to the baby? To find out, read book 2.

Dickens, Reynolds, and Mayhew on Wellington Street

The Print Culture of a Victorian Street

By: Mary L. Shannon

A glance over the back pages of mid-nineteenth-century newspapers and periodicals published in London reveals that Wellington Street stands out among imprint addresses. Between 1843 and 1853, Household Words, Reynolds’s Weekly Newspaper, the Examiner, Punch, the Athenaeum, the Spectator, the Morning Post, and the serial edition of London Labour and the London Poor, to name a few, were all published from this short street off the Strand. Mary L. Shannon identifies, for the first time, the close proximity of the offices of Charles Dickens, G.W.M. Reynolds, and Henry Mayhew, examining the ramifications for the individual authors and for nineteenth-century publishing. What are the implications of Charles Dickens, his arch-competitor the radical publisher G.W.M. Reynolds, and Henry Mayhew being such close neighbours? Given that London was capital of more than Britain alone, what connections does Wellington Street reveal between London print networks and the print culture and networks of the wider empire? How might the editors’ experiences make us rethink the ways in which they and others addressed their anonymous readers as ’friends’, as if they were part of their immediate social network? As Shannon shows, readers in the London of the 1840s and '50s, despite advances in literacy, print technology, and communications, were not simply an ’imagined community’ of individuals who read in silent privacy, but active members of an imagined network that punctured the anonymity of the teeming city and even the empire.
