An indiscreet princess : a novel of Queen Victoria's defiant daughter / by Blalock, Georgie,1974-author.;
As the fourth daughter of the perpetually in-mourning Queen Victoria, Princess Louise's life is more a gilded prison than a fairy tale. Expected to sit quietly next to her mother with down-cast eyes, Louise vows to escape the stultifying royal court. Blessed with beauty, artistic talent, and a common touch, she creates a life outside the walled-in existence of the palace grounds by attending the National Art Training School--where she shockingly learns to sculpt nude models while falling passionately in love with famed sculptor Joseph Edgar Boehm.But even as Louise cultivates a life outside the palace, she is constantly reminded that even royal rebels must heed the call of duty--and for a princess that means marriage. Refusing to leave England, she agrees to a match with the Duke of Argyll, and although her heart belongs to another, she is determined to act out her public role perfectly, even if her private life teeters on the brink of scandal. But when a near fatal accident forces Louise back under her mother's iron rule, she realizes she must choose: give in to the grief of lost love or find the strength to fight for her unconventional life.

Adele [videorecording] : the story so far / by Adele,1988-performer.; MVD Visual (Firm),publisher.;
Adele.They say a woman will never tell you her true age, but if the woman in question is Adele, there's little doubt in the minds of most of us, as her every multi-million selling album advertises such personal details to half the world. And while, thankfully, the number in question still reveals tender years, the smart money says this remarkable singer, performer and composer may well reverse this trend before she gets too much older. But with album three ready to drop and early signals suggesting it'll be another collection at least as strong as anything she has yet produced, 25 may well be Adele's best record yet. This two disc collection, featuring a DVD film, which explores the life and work of Adele to date, and a disc full of interviews with the girl herself, both of which celebrate and document this talented young woman's artistry, is certain to become a must-have item and take a starring role in every Adele collection in existence.E.DVD; stereo ; full screen presentation.
