A new short story by New York Times bestselling thriller writer Ben Coes — with time running out, Dewey Andreas…
is the last hope for a prominent kidnapping victim. The newly sworn in Vice President of the United States has a problem. Her son, off in college, doesn't care for his security detail. So when Spring Break comes around, he slips away from his bodyguard, picks up his best friend, and heads to Mexico for an intended week of sun, sand, women, and hoped-for debauchery. But when he arrives at the airport, a team of well-armed kidnappers grab both him and his friend and escape. Now they're demanding that an exorbitant ransom be paid in only a few hours — and if it's not, both boys will be killed. Dewey Andreas, CIA operative and former Delta, happens to be in Mexico, taking some time away and helping friends Katie Fox and Rob Tacoma with a private job. Hoping to relax, Andreas is now the only hope these two young men have of surviving their misadventure. But Mexico is a big country and, before anything else, Dewey has to find the missing boys. Even then, it's a race against the clock, with a highly-trained group of vicious men waiting at the other end.Par Editors at Taste of Home. 2016

Includes: Along Came a Duke: "A young lady with a fortune is subject to all sorts of untoward attentions…
by the worst sort of vagrants." — Aunt Allegra. A lesson Tabitha Timmons, a penniless spinster, has never needed to heed. That is, until she is left a vast fortune payable only upon her marriage to the very respectable Mr. Barkworth—a match that offers little chance of discovering exactly what her aunt means by "untoward attentions." And the Miss Ran Away With the Rake: Daphne Dale never could have imagined that when she answered an advertisement in the newspaper that she would find true love. Now she has the opportunity to meet her unknown suitor, but it means traveling to Tabitha’s wedding, and into the heart of her family’s sworn enemies. Everyone knows the Seldons are terrible rakes and bounders, but Daphne will risk anything to gain the happiness she is certain is right around the corner. Have You Any Rogues?: The Seldons and Dales have been mortal enemies for centuries, but that hasn't stopped the roguish Crispin, Viscount Dale and the impetuous Lady Henrietta Seldon from waging their own battle … of the heart. Every stray glance, every chance encounter threatens to reveal the secret passion that keeps drawing them together. If Wishes Were Earls: Harriet Hathaway has loved only one man her entire life: the Earl of Roxley. But when he ignores her at a ball, she takes rather desperate steps to catch his eye and her plans find her ruined and without any hope of gaining Roxley's heart. So it is much to her amazement when Roxley proposes marriage to save her from ruin. But Roxley's proposal isn't quite on the up and up and when she finds out she's just another piece in one of his plots and japes, she vows revenge.Par Madhavi Kolhatkar. 1983

विचित्र अनुभव यायला लागले. तिचा दिवसा- तासांचा मेळ बसेना. आयुष्यातला बराच काळ हा आपण न जगताच जातो आहे, असं तिला वाटायचं. सर्वसामान्य माणसाच्या आयुष्यापेक्षा आपलं आयुष्य काहीतरी वेगळं आहे; कुठेतरी, काहीतरी चुकतं आहे, असं जाणवल्यावर धाडस करून ती मनोविकारतज्ज्ञांकडे गेली. त्यांनी तिचा सर्व इतिहास जाणून घेऊन निदान केलं, ते भग्नव्यक्तित्वाचं. ‘सिबिल’ मध्ये एकूण सोळा व्यक्तित्वं आढळली. त्यातली पेगीसारखी काही व्यक्तित्वं भरपूर खात, हिंडत, उल्हासाने जगत; तर सिबिल ॲन्सारखी इतर काही एक पाऊल उचलण्याच्या कल्पनेनंही थकून जात.Par Cpt.
