Bad At The Bijou

This book is about a group of actors who bring drama to the big screen the way the fair haired hero never could. The granddaddies of Darth Vadar and J.R. Ewing--villains of the Westerns. Witty interviews with ten Hollywood heavies--Lee Van Cleef, Jack Elam, Strother Martin, others--about their backgrounds, and feelings about themselves, their families, and playing bad guys. Horner asks the right questions, pulls out good answers and shows a fondness for controversial and sensitive issues. Two sections contain 43 photos of these familiar grisly characters in well known roles. All in all a splendid portrayal of a bunch of fine fellows who make a living convincing audiences they are despicable, degenerate and mean. A thorough filmography and a solid index are included.

Bijou has one mission — find and destroy the Obayifo who killed her mother. Zeke is a knight who has made Bijou his most important quest. Can they both get everything they want? Twenty years ago, the Obayifo destroyed Bijou's family, leaving her with crushing guilt. She's spent two decades tracking the monster and training for the day of reckoning. It's coming soon, and she can't be distracted with fairy tale love — even by a man who would be her knight in shining armor. He even has the armor. And a warhorse. Zeke has spent over a thousand years trying to reconcile the vampire inside him with the chivalrous knight he's always longed to be. His Draga has a quest, and he knows something about those. But when she keeps slipping through his fingers, he might have to give in to his darker side to prove fairy tales can be real. When Bijou finally finds her nemesis, she must make heart-wrenching choices, and Zeke can't help — saving his life is one of them. This is a sexy, happily-ever-after soulmate novel with no cheating or cliffhangers. It's a fast-paced story that blends romance, mythology, humor, and adventure. While a little more of the Dragaverse is revealed as the series progresses, the romance in each novel focuses on one couple and can be read as a standalone.
