Stakes and Stilettos

Michelle Rowan, 2009

Newly vamped Sarah Dearly wants her normal life back, but fate is fighting against her. She tries to get a regular job and gets staked in the interview, only to be rescued by a masked vampire who calls himself the Red Devil. Then a wallflower-turned-witch curses her, making her a bloodthirsty, sun-allergic nightwalker — the worst vampire there is. As if all that weren't enough, she can't get married because her 600-year-old boyfriend, Thierry, is in a centuries-long marriage of convenience he can't escape. As Sarah's nightwalker tendencies make her more dangerous, even to those she loves, she'll have to counteract that curse, unmask the increasingly intriguing Red Devil, and get a commitment from her man. But if that's what it takes to secure her happiness, Sarah is ready...even if it means embracing her inner vamp to do it. Подробнее

Tall, Dark and Fangsome

Michelle Rowen, 2009

Sarah Dearly's vampire life is not all B-positive cocktails. A curse made her a nightwalker, the most vicious vamp there is; the charm she wears to curb her deadly tendencies is losing its juice; and a hunter from hell is turning up the heat. Gideon Chase will kill the ones she loves most if she doesn't obey his orders. That includes breaking up with master vampire Thierry and turning Gideon into an immortal vamp so he can escape a doom of eternal hellfire. Making things worse are Sarah's growing feelings for Gideon, a bad boy who keeps showing a vulnerable side... but is it for real? Will Sarah's dark side take over? Or can she cure herself of the nightwalker curse in time to stop Gideon and finally live happily ever after with Thierry...forever? Подробнее

In Character: Actors Acting

Howard Schatz, 2005

Howard Schatz, author of the critically acclaimed, ATHLETE, is among the most in-demand photographers working today and his distinctive style has been widely imitated in art and advertising. IN CHARACTER is a book of photographic portraits of working actors — many of them recognized stars — playing one or more roles as directed by the photographer. The images are composed of one or more different characters performed by each actor and might include an evil crime boss, an 8-year-old girl stumped at a spelling bee, a gambler at the track, a teenage flirt or a coach imploring his players to play harder to win. Comments accompanying the images reveal the actors' views on the creative process of acting and their personal experiences. Among those featured are Peter Falk, James Earl Jones, Natasha Richardson, George Segal, Hal Holbrook and Judd Hirsch. IN CHARACTER is a landmark project for Schatz. It provides a fascinating new vision of actors acting and the power of the creative imagination and the ongoing dialogue between actors and their audience. Подробнее

Life: Remembering Marilyn

Life Magazine, 2009

No movie star in history is as iconic as Marilyn Monroe. This fact has had the unfortunate effect of distancing the observer from the human being. Marilyn is too often seen as an object instead of as a person. Not in this book. Carefully choosing from the portfolios of photographers who knew her well and who were with her in her unguarded moments, Life presents an intimate, warm portrait of a bravely, vulnerable woman. The work of great Life shooters — Milton Greene, Alfred Eisenstaedt, and others — is here, as is material from several other equally fine lensmen. They show different aspects of Marilyn, sometimes in famous imagery and sometimes in shots rarely if ever seen by the public. The accompanying narrative, too, tries to get in close; it lets the reader know Marilyn in a new way. In this book, Marilyn finally lives. Подробнее
