Wilde child / by James, Eloisa.;
Already notorious for the golden hair that proves her mother's infidelity, Lady Joan can't seem to avoid scandals, but her latest escapade may finally ruin her: she's determined to perform the title role of a prince--in breeches, naturally. She has the perfect model for an aristocratic male in mind: Thaddeus Erskine Shaw, Viscount Greywick, a man who scorned the very idea of marrying her. Not that Joan would want such a dubious honor, of course. For years, Thaddeus has avoided the one Wilde who shakes his composure, but he's horrified when he grasps the danger Joan's putting herself in. Staring into her defiant eyes, he makes the grim vow that he'll keep her safe. He strikes a bargain: after one performance, the lady must return to her father's castle and marry one of three gentlemen whom he deems acceptable. Not including him, of course.

The Work of Our Hands : A Cree Meditation on the Real World. by Sutherland, Adrian.;
Life is hard in Attawapiskat. So why does Juno-nominated Cree musician Adrian Sutherland live there?

Sutherland is the driving force behind the Indigenous musical group Midnight Shine. He is based in Attawapiskat on the remote coast of James Bay, ON.Library Bound Incorporated
