Années 1930, Smoky Mountains. George Pemberton, riche exploitant forestier, et sa femme Serena forment un couple de prédateurs mégalos, déterminés à couper tous les arbres à portée de main pour accroître leur fortune. Mais le projet d'aménagement d'un parc national, pour lequel l'État convoite leurs terres, menace leurs ambitions. Pemberton s'emploie à soudoyer banquiers et politiciens. Sans états d'âme, Serena a d'autres arguments: le fusil, le couteau, le poison, et un homme de main dévoué... Après Un pied au paradis, Ron Rash nous propose un drame élisabéthain sur fond de Dépression et de capitalisme sans foi ni foi. La nature, hostile et menacée, s'y mesure âprement aux pires recoins de l'âme humaine. Ron Rash signe ici une version sauvage de la tragédie grecque, au coeur des montagnes boisées de la Caroline du Nord. Dominique Artus, Le Point.

Record-breaking, trend-setting, polarizing, and controversial, Serena Williams often sparks conversation and debate. The 23-time Grand Slam champion has a team, an entourage, celebrity groupies, and a band of fans who call themselves “Serena’s army.” When not winning titles, Williams finds time to run her own fashion line, endorse luxury and financial brands, and fund schools for girls in Africa and Jamaica. Serena Williams transcends sports. More than a biography, Serena Williams: Tennis Champion, Sports Legend, and Cultural Heroine not only tells the story of her upbringing and remarkable career but also looks at Williams as a sports pioneer. Merlisa Lawrence Corbett explores Williams’ influence on cultural and political issues such as body shaming, gender equality, and racism in sports and society. Corbett also analyzes Williams’ impact on discussions of feminism, the sports celebrity, and the marketing of female athletes. Williams is one of the most intriguing and influential figures in sports, and this book is the first to provide a fully-rounded portrait of a tennis icon.

Året er 1929, og det nygifte par George og Serena Pemberton rejser til Smokey Mountains i North Carolina, hvor de planlægger at opbygge et tømmerimperium. George har allerede boet i skovhuggerlejren længe nok til at gøre en lokal pige gravid, men Serena er ny i bjergene. Hun tager dog udfordringerne i de nye omgivelser i stiv arm og bliver hurtigt betragtet som en ligeværdig blandt mændene. Serena er egenrådig, usentimental og ikke bange for at tage fat. George er forblændet af kærlighed til sin stærke og modige hustru, og sammen sørger parret for at eliminere enhver fjende eller kritiker, der ikke støtter op om deres planer for firmaet. Tragedien rammer dem dog, da Serena mister sit ufødte barn og får at vide, at hun aldrig kan blive gravid igen. Tanken om ikke at kunne producere en arving gør Serena hævngerrig af sorg, og hendes hævntogt fører deres ægteskab mod langsom opløsning og et uundgåeligt og chokerende endeligt.

Four military heroes. Four steamy, emotional contemporary romances. Four chances to fall in love. Hold On Tight Mira Shipley is raising her son by herself far from family, and the babysitter has just quit. Then salvation appears, in the messiest—and hottest—form possible: Sam’s real dad, who’s an Army Ranger. Jake never knew he had a son—and Sam never knew he had a father. Now they’re all in close quarters, day after day. There’s no way for Mira to keep the alpha warrior at a distance and no way to protect her son’s heart… or her own. Can’t Hold Back Alia Drake loves her new job at the R&R veterans retreat. But there are certain lines a physical therapist can’t cross, and she’s toeing one. Her newest patient is Nate Riordan. Alia and Nate have a history—and not one she’s proud of. Alia knows she has to ignore her feelings for Nate and keep her hands where they belong. But will she do any better at resisting temptation this time around? To Have and To Hold Hunter Cross has lost a year. A head injury during his last deployment stole his memories, and the beautiful, blue-eyed blonde living in his house is little more than a stranger to him. He slept with her, fell for her, loved her—and he doesn’t remember any of it. He knows he should send her away, except that at night, when she slips into his bed, his body remembers hers. But what will happen when morning comes? Holding Out The answer has to be no, of course. No way Griff Ambrose is going to help Becca Drake lose her virginity. Sure, she’s beautiful and hot as hell, but she’s his friend’s little sister. And Griff won’t ever risk being hurt again like he was when he came home from war to find his house empty and his wife gone. But how can he resist the woman he’s always craved?

One of the biggest stars in tennis, Serena Williams has captured every major title. Her 2009 Australia Open championship earned her the #1 world ranking for the third time in her illustrious career - and marked only the latest exclamation point on a life well and purposefully lived. As a young girl, Serena began training with an adult-sized racquet that was almost as big as her. Rather than dropping the racquet, Serena saw it as a challenge to overcome-and she has confronted every obstacle on her path to success with the same unflagging spirit. From growing up in the tough, hardscrabble neighborhood of Compton, California, to being trained by her father on public tennis courts littered with broken glass and drug paraphernalia, to becoming the top women's player in the world, Serena has proven to be an inspiration to her legions of fans both young and old. Her accomplishments have not been without struggle: being derailed by injury, devastated by the tragic shooting of her older sister, and criticized for her unorthodox approach to tennis. Yet somehow, Serena always manages to prevail. Both on the court and off, she's applied the strength and determination that helped her to become a champion to successful pursuits in philanthropy, fashion, television and film. In this compelling and poignant memoir, Serena takes an empowering look at her extraordinary life and what is still to come.
