Who Is Tulovski? It still hurt. One week, two days and fourteen hours after the momentous event it still hurt like hell. The object of her misery was coming around that night to collect the last of his stuff. She felt sick when she thought of the hussy's hands all over him, touching him, caressing him, wanting him. Damn the thoughts that wouldn't go away. Day and night they pestered her, prying at the edges of sleep and forcing it back so that her wilting eyes flew open under a barrage of painful images that she'd rather not imagine. And that was how the plot came to be hatched. It shot across her thought process as she lovingly ironed along the seam of his fly on the dark grey boxer shorts, the ones with the tiny hole in the material of the left buttock. "I'll tell him I've met somebody else," she said aloud. She actually enjoyed doing the rest of the ironing and by the time she had pressed the last of his fourteen shirts she had invented, built and fleshed out, the 'perfect' partner.

Devon Harper isn't just an agent of the Safeguard Systems private security firm, he's also a cambion, the half-breed offspring of an incubus and a human. While on the trail of Porter, a dangerous summoner, Devon's own demonic birthright betrays him to a warding spell and he's captured, leaving his sometime partner Rio to step in and save the day. Unfortunately, their quarry is well away by the time Devon is freed. If they don't catch him fast, Porter could once again vanish overseas and out of their reach.As the two men begin their search, the urgency of their mission can't quite distract Devon from the growing affection he feels for Rio--the one person whose calm nature seems to quiet his restless spirit. Their hunt leads them to a Seattle hotel, but Devon is captured and Porter almost killed as the demon who has been pulling his strings springs his ultimate trap. He's got plans for Devon, and unless Rio is willing to risk everything by revealing his own hidden nature to stop him, he may have found a way to become the most powerful incubus to ever walk the Earth.

I'm not your good ole boy or boy-next-door type of guy. If that's what you're looking for, I suggest you move on. I curse a lot, work too fucking much, and keep to myself. My edges are hard, rough, and even dark at times. I never thought I would wind up in the business I'm in. I may not always play by the rules, but I go where the money is, keep my nose clean, and my affairs organized. Who knew one fucking e-mail would change everything in my controlled life. I swore I'd never touch a case like hers again, but there was something intriguing behind every word I read. She had my attention, she would have my services, but I never thought she'd steal my heart. My name is Chase Black, owner of Dark Edges PI. I'm your good girl and I once had everything.A big beautiful house with a view of gorgeous mountains, an expensive car, stress-free job, a wardrobe any woman would die for, but one thing was missing... the ever-absent husband.I never expected to be in the position I'm in, but I needed answers.I sent one e-mail thinking I would figure it all out. It wasn't the route I intended to take. The life I'd been living was a lie and he gave me the answers I needed. What happened next I wasn't prepared for.He had my information, he took the case, but I never thought he'd capture my heart. My name is Naomi McAllister, owner of a broken heart. This is our story...

Each project in this book combines bookbinding with a specific craft such as quilting, jewelry making, or polymer clay, and offer levels of expertise: basic, novice, and expert. Illustrated step-by-step instructions and photographs demonstrate how to construct the cover pages, and a unique binding technique, easy enough for a beginner to master. Each project also features two other versions with the same binding geared to those with more or less experience. The novice version is for those who have no knowledge of the craft and want shortcuts, but love the look. For the quilter's book, for example, vintage quilt pieces become the covers so all that's needing in the binding. Or if you're interested in wool felting use an old sweater. This offers great opportunities for upcycling. The expert version is for those who have a great deal of knowledge and proficiency of a certain craft - the master art quilter, for example. For this version, an expert guest artist has created the cover and the author has created the binding. This offers yet another creative opportunity - the collaborative project. Since crafters often get involved with round-robins and other shared endeavors, this will show them yet another way to combine their skills. No other craft book offers the possibilities and challenges that Adventures in Bookbinding does. Readers will return to it again and again to find inspiration and ideas.
