New Jersey. 1914. Constance Kopp non è esattamente la tipica donna del suo tempo. È più alta di quasi tutti gli uomini che incontra, non è attratta dal matrimonio né dalle faccende domestiche, e vive isolata dal mondo da quindici anni - da quando, cioè, un segreto inconfessabile aveva spinto lei e le sue sorelle a lasciare la città per rintanarsi in una fattoria in campagna.

Manca un anno all'inizio del college, ma per Cecelia Horner il destino ha piani meno scontati. Suo padre, un industriale multimilionario e anaffettivo con cui non ha rapporti da tempo, le ha fatto un'offerta difficile da rifiutare: andare a lavorare per un periodo nella sua azienda con la prospettiva di mettere dei soldi da parte ed ereditare, prima o poi, il suo impero.

L'estate a Triple Falls è finita, e per Cecelia Horner quella che doveva essere solo una breve parentesi prima di riprendere in mano il suo destino si è rivelato il periodo più eccitante della sua vita. In pochi mesi ha imparato che nelle questioni di cuore le regole non esistono e non sempre è obbligatorio scegliere. Accantonato ogni senso di colpa, si è tuffata in un triangolo amoroso con Sean e il suo amico Dominic, che ha liberato le sue fantasie ed esaudito i desideri più inconfessabili, anche quelli che non sapeva di avere.

"I will wade out till my thighs are steeped in burn- ing flowers I will take the sun in my mouth and leap into the ripe air Alive with closed eyes to dash against darkness in the sleeping curves of my body Shall enter fingers of smooth mastery with chasteness of sea-girls Will I complete the mystery of my flesh I will rise After a thousand years lipping flowers And set my teeth in the silver of the moon." -- E. Estlin Cummings in Crepuscule Eight Harvard Poets is a anthology of poetry by E. Estlin Cummings, S. Foster Damon, J. R. Dos Passos, Robert Hillyer, R. S. Mitchell, William A. Norris, ...

In the northern outreaches of the Canadian wilderness, it was understood that the Hudson Bay Company governed all trading, and one factor named Galen Albret took his position seriously. Free traders, or those who dared try to do their trading outside of the Company, found themselves having to face Galen Albret and his methods of dealing with them. One or two offenses he might tolerate, but for those who repeatedly refuse to acknowledge his warning out, he would send them on “La Longue Traverse” through the wilderness without supplies, and from which they seldom returned.Ned Trent was one ...

Ava era mille cose. Era una ragazza che adorava cantare. Era una ragazza con tanti amici. Ora è solo la ragazza con le cicatrici. È passato un anno dall'incendio in cui ha perso i genitori. Un anno in cui Ava ha tagliato i ponti con il mondo perché le fa troppa paura. Ora è costretta a tornare a scuola. Una scuola nuova dove non conosce nessuno. Una scuola che – ne è sicura – sarà piena di ragazzi che non faranno altro che osservare il suo viso per poi allontanarsi spaventati. Chi vorrebbe mai fare amicizia con lei? Quali nuovi modi di prenderla in giro si inventeranno i suoi compagni?

Nell'autunno del 1915, Constance Kopp, dopo aver scartato sdegnosa il mestiere di giardiniera e intagliatrice, per non parlare di quello di governante, si destreggia nel suo nuovo mondo: la prigione dello sceriffo Heath, ad Hackensack, in New Jersey. Il suo posto da vicesceriffa è in bilico, perché le ingessate leggi dello Stato ancora non prevedono che quella carica possa essere ricoperta da una donna. E così viene retrocessa a direttrice della sezione femminile, dove sorveglia le detenute o rincorre giovani ragazze in fuga sui treni.

Triple Falls wasn’t at all what it seemed, nor were the men that swept me under their wing. But in order to keep them, I had to be in on their secrets.⁣ Secrets that cost us everything to keep.⁣ That’s the novelty of fiction versus reality. You can’t re-live your own love story, because by the time you’ve realized you’re living it, it’s over. At least that was the case for me and the men I trusted my foolish heart to.⁣ Looking back, I’m convinced I willed my story into existence, due to my illness, and all were punished.

Once upon a time... There lived an ambitious boy determined to become a man before his time. And a woman and battered soldier who recognized the scars that marred his soul—scars that mirrored her own. Determined to help shape the warrior within him, it was their inexplicable bond that would forever alter his heart. And the loss of that love that would redefine his destiny. After all, nothing has ever been fair in love and war.

The mystery of Rennes-le-Château has inspired treasure hunts, theories about the origins of Christianity, and the best-selling novel and film The Da Vinci Code. The mystery concerns Bérenger Saunière, the 19th century priest of an impoverished hilltop village in southern France who became immensely wealthy after apparently finding ancient parchments hidden in his church.

Thirty years ago, my father became the other half of a broken love story. A relationship he’s kept hidden for decades. Upon unearthing his secret through a series of emails in our paper’s archives, I began my search for the truth. Haunted by my father’s love story, and in my quest for answers, I never imagined I would discover a love of my own. Or that my love for Easton Crowne would be key in discovering the reason behind what split our parents up.

Once upon a time… there lived a man with a vengeance-filled heart that held too many secrets and a woman, pure of soul, intent on uncovering them. What they failed to realize is that through the storm their love would create, a legacy would be born.

It’s a ghost town, this place that haunts me, the one that made me. It’s clear to me that I’ll never outgrow Triple Falls or outlive the time I spent here. I can still feel them all, my boys of summer. Even when I'd sensed the danger, I gave in. I didn’t heed a single warning. I let my sickness and my love both rule and ruin me. I played my part, eyes wide open, tempting fate until it delivered. There was never going to be an escape. All of us are to blame for what happened. All of us are serving our own sentences.
