Cuckoo s Egg (Age of Exploration, #3)

They named him Thorn. They told him he was of their people, although he was so different. He was ugly in their eyes, strange, sleek-skinned instead of furred, clawless, different. Yet he was of their power class: judge-warriors, the elite, the fighters, the defenders.

Thorn knew that his difference was somehow very important - but not important enough to prevent murderous conspiracies against him, against his protector, against his castle, and perhaps against the peace of the world. But when the crunch came, when Thorn finally learned what his true role in life was to be, that on him might hang the future of two worlds, then he had to stand alone to justify his very existence.

When Shannon Nelson shows up at Fire Lake Soccer Camp for a two-week session, she can't believe her good luck. She'll be training with Gregg Warner, the high school soccer legend from her hometown in Michigan. A few pointers from Gregg and she's sure to be a star!

After meeting Gregg in person, Shannon finds herself hoping the gorgeous assistant coach will notice more than just her quick defensive moves.

Can Shannon find a way to kick some romance back into the game?

Lolita

Humbert Humbert - scholar, aesthete and romantic - has fallen completely and utterly in love with Lolita Haze, his landlady's gum-snapping, silky skinned twelve-year-old daughter. Reluctantly agreeing to marry Mrs Haze just to be close to Lolita, Humbert suffers greatly in the pursuit of romance; but when Lo herself starts looking for attention elsewhere, he will carry her off on a desperate cross-country misadventure, all in the name of Love. Hilarious, flamboyant, heart-breaking and full of ingenious word play, Lolita is an immaculate, unforgettable masterpiece of obsession, delusion and lust.
