5-0 out of 5 stars A Suitable Father
Maggie Rainer's past is filled with pain, abandonment, and controversy.In high school, she had been madly in love with a man named Kurt Rainer. For years the two hid their secret love affair until finally thecouple planned to run away together. Unfortunately, the love affair ended badly when Kurt disappeared without a trace after a fight with his father. Soon after Kurt's abandonment, Maggie found out she was pregnant and agreed to marry Kurt's half brother Steve to hide her affair with his brother. This sham marriage ended when Steve died in an airplane crash coming from one of his regular parties.

Six years later, however, Maggie's future is starting to look bright. Maggie's son is the steadfast focus of her life. Her career is progressing well. Furthermore, her new boyfriend, Dr. Roger St George, is eager for marriage and a family. Then, Kurt Rainer walks back into her life and complicates everything, reviving old wounds and dead secrets.

A Suitable Father is contemporary love story that illustrates the prime worries that single mothers have when finding love again. It is difficult enough to find true lasting love with a child but single parents often worry about how that potential lover will treat his or her children from another relationship. This quandary makes relationship decisions extremely difficult. This story, however, gives the reader hope that sometimes the heart knows the way, even when the brain isn't quite sure about that right choice.

4-0 out of 5 stars Beloved Stranger
Beloved Stranger is a love story generations in the making. Sarah MacMillan has just bought the original house of her ancestors. Captain George MacMillan of the Queens Volunteer Calvary, in Upper Canada, had built the house for his wife Mary and his son Harold. Soon after the house was built, in 1838, George mysteriously disappeared. Rumours of the day suggested that George had a lover named Isabelle Tremblay. Tremblay was the wife of Armand Tremblay and mother to sons Robert and Philippe. Many people at the time of George's strange appearance speculated that George had been murdered by Isabelle's husband. However, the mystery of George's disappearance was never solved.

That is until a strange turn of events began to take place. A Sergeant Pierre Tremblay Martin arrived at Sarah's house one day demanding to rent a cabin. Pierre, an undercover RCMP officer was investigating a local money laundering and drug trafficking ring that was thought to be running from out of the MacMillan house. Soon after Pierre's arrival at the house, however, Sarah started to have strange dreams about her ancestors and hearing strange voices.

Beloved Stranger is a multi-dimensional romance novel. The present day love story is both enhanced and complicated by the reflections of the past. The parallels between the characters of the past and the present day are extremely well thought out and develop in predictably realistic ways. These aspects create a more interesting and multi-layered storyline.

3-0 out of 5 stars A Good Book, But Kind of Disjointed
Sarah MacMillan just wanted to forget.To forget that she worked for an antiques firm that was laundering money, forget that her ex-boyfriend had left the country so he wouldn't be convicted of drug charges, forget that she didn't really have enough money to renovate the house she purchased.She loved the house in Harrison Corners, a small town in the Ontario woods and was determined to fix up the small lakeside cabin for her brother, Michael, who was paralyzed in a motorcycle accident.Sarah was happy just to work on renovations and dream of her new antique shop she planned on until Pierre Martin walked into her life.

Pierre Martin was determined to wipe drugs off the street - no matter what it took.After losing his beloved wife, Sue, in a drug hostage situation gone wrong, Pierre felt he had nothing left to live for.He was so close to busting up a big drug ring and then he could take a break.At first, Pierre thought that Sarah was involved.After all, with her background and her purchase of a house that had a reputation as a drug house, it just couldn't be a coincidence.However, the more Pierre gets to know her, the more convinced he is that she has nothing to with drugs - but there is something about her...

Sarah felt that she knew Pierre somehow, even though she knows that they have never met.When she starts having strange dreams and hearing someone talking in her room, Pierre tries to tell her that it is just stress.But then she finds the diary hidden up in the chimney and discovers the story of her ancestor, Captain George MacMillan, Queen's Volunteer Cavalry, who disappeared in 1838, leaving his wife and child behind.No one knows exactly what happened to George, but there is a rumor that he ran off with a woman he met during the war named Isabelle.Determined to figure out just what is going on, Sarah heads for Quebec and starts digging for clues, only to discover that Pierre is a descendant of Isabelle.The more Sarah investigates, the more mysteries come to light - what happened to George? how are Pierre's distant cousins involved? who else knows the story of George and Isabelle? why are women being attacked and murdered who have vital information for Sarah?As Sarah struggles with her feelings for Pierre, she also must come to believe that life and love come when you least expect it...

Beloved Stranger started off well, with a definite story line and strong characterization.I liked both Sarah and Pierre and thought that their romance would be one of those star-crossed lovers who have another chance at love type stories, but instead it turned into this weird, convoluted plot that wandered all over the place.First, there was the drug plot - Pierre believed Sarah was innocent, cleared her and was able to get her to forgive him despite her abhorrence of anything involving deception.Then her grandfather dies and her brother, Michael, says he doesn't want to live with her and moves off into his own life.Sarah feels guilty and them moves on.Then, Sarah goes on to investigating the disappearance of George, but Pierre doesn't believe in reincarnation and resists the feeing that they know each other with Sarah diving into things headlong.So she finally persuades him that this is really happening and to take some chances and then she decides that she just can't handle falling in love with someone who is a cop and doesn't want him to investigate or take risks and do anything. Then the wicked cousins come in and we have to figure out why people are dying or being attacked and how they are involved and work through that and then all of a sudden everything is great and we live happily ever after.It isn't necessarily bad to have so many plotlets running if they are tied together, but I felt the author introduced something, solved it, dumped it, introduced a character, used them for a brief moment or to create an argument, then they disappeared.I think the author was just trying to keep the story going so that it would be longer, but I was just so tired of hearing this argument then that one and then he doesn't want her and then she doesn't want him and on and on - just end it already!I just didn't have the patience to wade through all of the other stuff that the author threw into the story, taking it from a simple story about reincarnated lovers into this whole sprawling, wandering story that took forever to end with characters that I had long since ceased to care for, but still couldn't stop because I had suffered this far and deserved closure.Luckily, I bought it in ebook format so I didn't have to pay as much!Still, despite the saggy plot, I did give the book 3 stars for starting off well and having a nice writing style - bottom line, if there is nothing else to read, go for it, otherwise skippable.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Gem Among Thousands!
In 1838 George MacMillan vanished without a word to his wife and child. His disappearance was never solved. Did he run off with his lover? Or was he murdered?

Sarah MacMillan moves into her family's ancestral home in the Ontario woods, with plans to fix it up and run an antique business using one of the cabins on the property. She wants to be alone and make a life for her brother Michael who had been crippled in a motorcycle accident. Her plans don't leave room for anyone else, especially after the disastrous relationship with her ex-boyfriend who made his fortune by trafficking drugs and taunting Sarah with postcards reminding her what she could have had with him.

Pierre Martin rents a cabin from Sarah, but he has to leave it in a month so she can move her brother Michael in. This is fine with Pierre. He's an undercover Mountie investigating Sarah and the MacMillan house as a possible drug link. He'd lost his wife Sue to a drug-hostage situation gone wrong, and was out to get every drug dealer off the street. Those he works for call him the Ice Man for his cold intensity.

Pierre and Sarah find themselves fighting a mutual attraction. Pierre seems vaguely familiar to Sarah, but she can't figure out why. Ghostly voices are heard in the MacMillan house, and a dark entity threatens them both, bringing them together to solve the mystery before someone gets killed.

Are there dark and light forces warring unseen around us? Do evil and good battle with our lives? What unforeseen tragedy lurks in invisible places to take good unaware and destroy our hope for tomorrow? BELOVED STRANGER makes you believe love conquers all even across decades of time. Don't miss this super, good paranormal romance by Patricia Crossley!

5-0 out of 5 stars Crossley's Beloved Stranger Stands Out
Beloved Stranger delivers all the lovely kick of a great romance, with the added bonus of a few delightful shivers.
If I had to assign this book to a single category, I'd be hard pressed. Crossley skillfully blends a ghostly background behind a contemporary romantic suspense. All the elements- paranormal, mystery and romance- are well balanced, adding up to more than your average read.
I was impressed by the intelligence of the characters- no overreacting, melodramatic heroines here!
And the scenes set in Quebec are particularly well done. I wallowed in the glimpse of French Canada, enjoying every bit of it.
This wasn't the first book I've read by this talented writer, and it won't be the last!

5-0 out of 5 stars fascinating reincarnation romance
In 1838 in the Upper Canada wilderness, Queen's Volunteer Cavalry Captain George Macmillan steps into a snow hidden animal trap.A man arrives, but is pleased to have snared George.Instead of rescuing the injured soldier, the man bids George a good life in heaven where he might eventually meet Isabelle.

Sarah Macmillan fled Toronto because she needs to start over after taking blows professionally and personally.Her employer, antique dealer/interior designer, apparently laundered money while her former-boyfriend sold drugs before leaving town for the Caribbean.Unfortunately for Sarah her newly purchased remote abode has a reputation too as drug dealers used the house.Mountie Pierre Martin thinks three connections to illegal operations are too coincidental and so he decides to go undercover and observe Sarah.He persuades Sarah to rent him a cabin.However, the last thing the law enforcement official expected is to have feelings for landlady especially since he loathes anyone connected to drug trafficking after dealers killed his family.Stranger is the sense that he and Sarah share a past that someone else is aware of and plans to insure the duo remains apart even if the actions of 1838 are repeated in the present.

BELOVED STRANGER is a fascinating reincarnation romance that never slows down until the final page is written as the audience is hooked into needing to know how the plot ends.The story line is loaded with action that leaves the audience believing in the impossible.However, the key to the tale resides in the two prime stars.Both are flawed individuals struggling with relational demons from their current life and coping with what seems insane, connections to mysteries of 1838.Fans of paranormal romance will delight in Patricia Crossley's exciting novel.

Product Description
A dark force who wants to reclaim what he believes he owns. . . a woman who must face her worst fears. . . two people who must learn to trust each other in order to survive.

Jazz Hargrove leaves her reporting assignment in the Horn of Africa to settle her father's estate and finds herself plunged in a deadly drama. She is good at her job as an international reporter. She's in line for an award and due for another promotion. Back in the small, provincial capital she'd left fourteen years before, she realizes with mounting terror that someone from her past is watching her, and he wants her back. Together with a man she does not wish to trust, she must face her worst fears to save a child drawn in to the web of danger.

Pete Browning is a freelance photographer recently assigned to Jazz's crew. An ex-cop with a failed marriage and a past drinking problem, he is not interested in falling in love, but he is determined to protect Jazz as the threats around her grow, until his own family becomes the target of a murderer.

Jazz and Pete have no choice but to pursue the stalker into a world of danger. Chemistry sizzles between them even as they follow the steps of a madman. Drawn together by necessity, they learn much more about each other and their own hidden fears and desires than they ever expected, as they continue DANCING WITH THE DEVIL. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Adventure, murder and romance
Dancing With The Devil is an adventure lover's delight. From Africa to Canada, Jazz searches for adventure ... and peace. Returning to her home because of her father's death, she tries to come to terms with her life there when she was a girl. But there are secrets she isn't willing to face. And a whole part of her life, she's cut out.

Danger follows Jazz. Romance beckons as well, but which man should she choose? It all ends on a remote ranch in a deserted copper mine. Where Jazz faces her past and finds her love.

5-0 out of 5 stars Realistic!
When Jazz gets word of her father's death, she and her friend, Pete, make a daring, dangerous escape from the tiny, war ridden country where they are working. Barely getting out alive, the danger should be over, right? It is only beginning.

Returning home, Jazz learns that her father's death was a bit mysterious, and soon finds herself the object of a stalker's attention. Gifts, such as roses and a kitten, begin appearing out of nowhere, and there are some break ins. Fortunately, Pete follows her home and is there to reassure her and protect her.

Things start to turn romantic with Pete unexpectedly, and deadly with the stalker as it becomes obvious to him that she does not return his "love". Murder and violence are now what Jazz is being given. When an innocent child is put at risk, Jazz must face the past and her fears to confront a familiar enemy. In a showdown that for some reason reminds me of PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, Jazz meets the greatest challenge of her life.

***** Suspenseful and taut, this novel is well worth the time and money. Ebooks often have little known authors that are worth discovering, and such is the case here. Jazz is a heroine that is easy to cheer on as she finds love and danger. Not perfect, she has weaknesses, which make her easier to relate to and more believable. Pete is a loveable hero, though not the alpha male that often populates the position. again rendering him more realistic. This is a story that could be real. *****

Product Description

Documenting major intellectual and paradigmatic changes in the field of comparative education in the light of the history and development of the journal Comparative Education, this book compiles a selection of articles from forty years of the journal’s distinguished history. It illustrates how changing times have been reflected in the nature and quality of published comparative research.

Contributors explore the impact of key issues such as marketisation, accountability and globalisation upon policy and practice world-wide. They explore how new challenges faced by the social sciences have seen shifts in the contexts, issues and priorities attended to by comparatives and how different approaches to comparative education have influenced the intellectual and professional identities and positioning of those involved.

Bridging theoretically oriented scholarship with empirically grounded research relating to issues of policy and practice and with chapters addressing questions of relevance throughout the world, this book is an invaluable resource of ideas and stimuli for further thinking and research.
