This book explores the untold history of women, art and crime. It has long been widely accepted that women have not played an active role in the art crime world, or if they have, it has been the part of the victim or peacemaker. Females in the Frame overturns this understanding, as it investigates the female criminals who have destroyed, vandalised, stolen and forged art, as well as those who have conned clients and committed white-collar crimes in their professional occupations in museums, libraries and galleries.

I moved to Paris for my study abroad program and ended up staying, getting a French literature degree, studying the classics while sipping the best wine I'd ever had. My sister never makes the best decisions, always makes messes to clean up, and it's finally time for me to have my own life. But when she comes to Paris for a visit, she brings trouble with her. She gets herself into a bad situation, and, of course, I come to her rescue. Now we're in a labor camp in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by snow and mountains, processing drugs for a group of men who never show their faces.

She saved my life. She promised she wouldn't intervene, that her loyalty was to her family, not me. But she did it anyway. Now everything is different. I can feel it with every kiss, every time she's underneath me. This isn't a meaningless fling anymore. It's so much more. I know it...and she knows it.

Why did I let her go? I can't answer that. How do you expect me to answer that when I don't even know? I'm the Skull King. I never let anyone go. When I see her at the bar six weeks later, she's still the feisty handful that I remember. She owns the room in that tight dress and that fire. Now that she's not dirty in a locked cage...she's stunning. She cleans up good. I decide to say hello...and see what happens.

She’s mine once again but she’s practically a ghost. She’s just using me...not that I mind. But her indifference is suffocating. I mean nothing to her...less than what she used to mean to me. Admissions of regret and apologies aren’t enough to fix it. I have to return to the gypsy...and hope for the best.

Everyone wants to shine like a star, but not everyone is willing to pay the price. Because in paying the price, all come face to face with the perverse spirit in his or her life. Since the church has, for the most part, relegated the perverse spirit to the homosexual community, most Christians have no clue how the perverse spirit works in their lives, homes, or churches. Making Crooked Places Straight solves that dilemma by providing information, insights, and answers from a solid biblical base....

My gravest mistake was falling in love with my husband. It crept up on me so slowly that I didn't even notice it was happening until it arrived.

I'll find a man that will love me the way I deserve, that won't bring home two strange women just to hurt me. I don't need him. Now it's time to start over.

She’s gone. But the fortune can’t be true because she means nothing to me. Nothing at all. But the doubt starts to creep in. My thoughts only focus on one thing. The other women no longer satisfy me. It starts to drive me crazy. When I finally confront her, the horror shatters me. She’s marrying someone else.

Tensions rise, and now, I have two enemies that want me dead. But I've never felt safer. My wolf protects me. He cherishes me. And I think he loves me. This arranged marriage was detested by us both, but now, I look at him with new eyes. My husband is strong, smart, and gorgeous. His coffee-colored eyes make me melt. My heart slowly starts to soften for this man, and I fall deeper and deeper.

Hades retired from the business. Now it’s just me. Look at me now...bitter...angry...depressed. I resent my former friend so much, even hate the guy, but I’ve never been the same since he refused to forgive me. I meet a woman. One woman will love you for you, not your money or your power, but you’ll lose her. And once she’s gone...she’s gone. That gypsy wasn’t right about me too, right?

But then her mother asks me to marry her. I say yes. Now this woman will be mine forever. Maybe the prophecy really is true. I’m committing to a woman that will never love me in return. But it was better to be her husband than allow someone else to take my place. It was better to conquer her body every night than be lonely with someone else. Much better.
