About this book

To bounty hunter Trinity Smith, tracking down criminals wasn’t just a living – it was his life’s work. And this time out, he was bringing in the most daring desperado of all: Victoria Davidge, the gold-digging seductress who’d been found guilty of murdering her husband. But nothing could have prepared the hard-riding loner for the voluptuous vision that greeted his jaded eyes when he galloped onto her Arizona ranch. All silken curves and smoldering sensuality, the fiery-haired fugitive ignited a desire he couldn’t resist. Though hiring on as an extra hand seemed the surest way to uncover Victoria’s most sinful secrets, her comely charms were fast distracting him from his lawful duty. Victoria suspected there was something strange about her ruggedly handsome new employee, but she never figured him for a hired gun who aimed to take away her precious freedom for a crime she hadn’t committed. Well, let him try – she’d lead him a merry chase clear across the West. But she soon discovered that Trinity Smith wasn’t a man to be crossed . . . or denied. And from the moment he wrapped her in his bold embrace, Vicky knew she would never escape the searing passion he awoke in her hungry heart . . . a passion she would give up everything to claim.

Palafox

Eric Chevillard

"Eric Chevillard's visionary play of word and thought has been compared to the work of Beckett, Michaux, and Pinget, yet the universe he spins is utterly his own. Palafox (Editions de Minuit, 1990), Chevillard's third novel of eleven, explores the ecosystem of an unclassifiable yet enchanting protean creature, Palafox. A team of experts armed with degrees of higher learning is determined to label, train, baptize, and realize the elusive creature, while Palafox effortlessly and wordlessly defies them all."--Jacket.

Ladyhawke

Dale Brown. Aus dem Amerikan. von Wulf Bergner

The spell of vengeance had been cast upon Etienne Navaree, Captain of the Guard, and the beautiful lady Isabeau by the evil Bishop of Aquila. Etienne and Isabeau must wander the wilderness, always together yet always apart--she a hawk by day and restored to herself only with the setting of each day's sun; he a wolf by night, transformed once more into human form at break of each day's dawn. This eternal spell is their punishment for daring to love after the evil Bishop had already chosen Isabeau for his own. Then, suddenly, Etienne receives an unex[ected sign of hope in the person of Phillipe, a young and cunning thief ... and Navarre knows he must seize this fearful oppertunity to free them from the Bishop's diabolical spell--or bring them death....
